  • Our animated historical documentary series on the Ottoman history continues with the naval battle of Preveza fought in 1538 between the alliance of Spain, Habsburgs, Venice, Genoa, Papal States called the Holy League and the Ottoman Empire. The navies were led by Andrea Doria and Hayreddin Barbarossa. This sea battle set the tone for the centuries of the naval battles fought in the region and became a crucial front for the Ottoman-Habsburg conflicts.
    Previously in our animated historical documentary series on the Ottoman Wars, we have covered the battles of Kosovo (bit.ly/2JI3F0p), Nicopolis (bit.ly/2zUNRre), Ankara (bit.ly/2uW7r0D), Varna (bit.ly/2JIK2VG), Second Kosovo, Constantinople (bit.ly/2uELWlI), Belgrade, Targoviste and Otlukbeli (bit.ly/2JOBlcQ), Vaslui, Valea Alba (bit.ly/2C9Cm0l), Skanderbeg's rebellion (bit.ly/2BYMYgW), Breadfield, Krbava, Otranto and Chaldiran (bit.ly/2DUa3mJ)the Ottoman-Mamluk War of 1516-1517 (bit.ly/2CxSkyp), siege of Rhodes in 1522 (bit.ly/2GHrRTC), the battle of Mohacs of 1526 (bit.ly/2V1YgeQ) and the siege of Vienna of 1529 (bit.ly/2VRujdc)

    -Understood the importance of a strategic site, promptly secured and fortified it before the enemy.
    -Tactically prepeared before the fight, accounting for sails (their disadvantage) and rellying on galleys instead.
    -Didn't attack on the enemies' terms.
    -Attacked a numerically stronger and bigger enemy w/o hesitation the moment he thought it was most upportune to do so.
    -Did NOT over extend. He saw through Doria's bait.

      @Don White No, they didn't. You are trying to mention Battle of Lepanto but it didn't happen that way. Yes Ottomans lost the battle. But Venetians didnt dare to step any longer. And peace treaty signed by how Ottomans dictated.
      As Grand Vizier Sokullu Mehmed Pasha decribes the situation: By conquering Cyprus, we cut your arm. By defeating our fleet, you shaved our beard. An arm doesn't grow back, but shaved beard grows stronger than before.
      In a short period of time Ottomans built a navy stronger than before.
      No naval dominance lost. But a disruption in force for a small period of time.

      @@chemicalbash8100 You are kinda right mate, majoirty of Ottoman wars for glory and gold but these religious wars definitely altered their directions such as the first objective Turks had was finding a new homeland and Anatolia was always a good candidate but not the best due there was this strongest empire of the time, Byzantine empire which was a lot richer and stronger than Seljuks therefore the best candidate was Egypt instead so early Seljuk conquests were towards Egypt which got changed when Byzantine broke non-agression pact with Seljuks then got defeated in the battle of Manzikert then Turks started to settle into Anatolia in mass and Turkish objective became defending our new homeland. Soon after the first crusade happened which was seen as the greatest threat against our new homeland so Turks always focused on Europe after that point while deserting their conquests around Syria, Iraq for hundreds of years. After Mongol invasion there was no Seljuk empire left rather there were small beyliks in Anatolia but Christian threat was still there and it was much bigger due Turkish beyliks got seperated and weakened so that's how Ottoman got famous by only fighting against Christians and capturing many European lands while they didn't even control vast majority of Anatolia that's why other beyliks started to willingly join Ottoman one by one so we can say early Ottoman wars were holy wars indeed for securing a Turkish and Islamic homeland in Anatolia, on the other hand we didn't need to push into the middle of Europe such as Vienna to secure Anatolia for sure so after some point those wars were only for glory and gold but religious people would never admit it same as religious Christians never admit crusades were also for glory and gold...

      Not really, he just followed orders from the emperor, which were to better have a fleet to be used, rather than a costly victory useful only for the venetians. Moreover, he almost never took a fight where allies didn't follow the command chain, and Prevesa showed why. Besides, his career didn't end there, considering that shortly he and his nephew captured Dragut and ha sailed well over his 80s years old.
      Doria was one of the greatest strategist of his times: he was one of the first to understand the value of deterrence. Battles are good for stories, but strategy is made with logic. For him (and for the spanish crown) Prevesa wasn't a big setback. Losing good men and resources for a venetian victory would have been.

      yess, and the reason why Andrea Doria lost, is also because the 2 other admirals that were with him hated him, and most of the soldiers could not understand each other, as there were people from different countries ( the Spanish, Portuguese, Venise, and so many others) , they were too many boats/galleons etc which were extremely heavy btw and hard to control, as compared to the Muslim's ships which were light and very fast, plus most of the soldiers were forced into fighting. so these 4 main reasons made it easy for the Muslims to win, because they, on the other side, were all fighting for the same cause, and were unified🤝 💖 ( and is it necessary to mention that these numbers are corrupted? the westerners actually had about 600 ships, against about 120 for the Muslims...)

    It never ceases to amaze me how major historical battles are usually won by generals who are:
    1. Are bold enough to strike while the iron is hot
    2. Wise enough to know when said iron is not hot
    3. Employ superior communication/logistics/unit mobility and cohesion.
    All of this sounds obvious but it is so astonishing to see so many generals being hesitant or being bold to the point of idiocy or have a general not stop and think that a force composed of a myriad of unit types that have never fought together before and may not even speak the same language could lose to a smaller, battle hardened homogeneous (mostly) force. Really just blows me away.

      There's a saying in Czech which literally translates as "Everyone's a general when the battle is over". Of course, it is usually not meant literally but it works like that as well. We have full information of the events, of the strengths and weaknesses of the opposing forces, their exact locations etc. The generals/admirals almost never had anything close to the full picture (although securing information and organizing your own forces so that you can rely on them being where you expect them to be is also a very important skill for a military leader), so what might seem like stupidity might just be an honest mistake. A bad general with a lot of dumb luck can win a battle against all odds and be celebrated as a hero. A brilliant general with a lot of bad luck can employ a perfectly good, even clever, strategy but still lose (although a brilliant general can usually at least cut his losses).

      check out the book if you want.
      the book I read was in french but they compiled it by refering themselves to the journalist and historian yilmaz oztuna.
      also check that book, Jamieson, Alan G. (2013). Lords of the Sea: A History of the Barbary Corsairs. Canada: Reaktion Books. p. 59. ISBN 1861899467.
      QUOTE: "Desperate to find some explanation for the sudden resurgence of Muslim sea power in the Mediterranean after centuries of Christian dominance, Christian commentators in the sixth century (and later) pointed to the supposed Christian roots of the greatest Barbary corsair commanders. It was a strange kind of comfort. The Barbarossas certainly had a Greek Christian mother, but it now seems certain their father was a Muslim TurK"

    The Ottomans are certainly one of the most under appreciated powers in English pop-history. I find it harder to get over the stereotype of "the sick man of Europe" label that is attributed to them just prior to the Great War. I'm aware they played a role as leaders of academia for a time. However I would like to see more about this. As an isolated American from the States I have a more difficult time disassociating current middle eastern fundamentalist ideologies from my view of the region and past culture. The more this bias is addressed, the more I believed I will come to appreciate Ottoman history.
    Just my opinion and an honest assessment :-)

      Well the sick man of Europe label was fitting prior to the Great War as the Ottoman Empire was at that point in near constant decline for roughly 200 years
      This big difference between hegomonial power in the eastern mediterranean and the sick man role is due to it being an old empire, since 1400 it was starting to going strong, at the beginning dominating their enemies but over time their advantage gradually disappared as european nations developed at a faster pace, modernizing warfare faster (ottomans had an advantage with gun powder weapons early on, that would change later) hence they eventually overtook the ottomans and then the decline since the 18th century started

      Hey, thanks for the details and recommendation. I'm no more than a casually curious type of person when it comes to history. It's one of the interests I don't have the time commitment priorities for. I appreciate people that make time for such interests, and choose to share it freely.
      I've gone through my musician, automotive enthusiast, bicycle racer, and electronic hardware phases in life. Perhaps when I'm a bit older I will make more time for history and astronomy. They are on my bucket list. I have 4 books with nomadic bookmarks, pinning down my coffee table at the moment, and am halfway through Dune Messiah (2nd book in the series) just for fun as well :-)
      ...Still...I find it funny when people say one army, nation, etc. was crap at any given point in time. I imagine the weakness is an issue with logistics and/or a lack of planning, strategy, or critical decision making at the top of the chain of command. Any idiot can point and shoot a gun. If anyone says otherwise, I propose they choose a contender from said group and prove their opinion head to head. They are primed for the resulting Darwin award anyway, so why not. I've yet to find a person that is truely incompetent with a bolt action rifle and a dozen practice shots. Heck most people intuitively realize the trick to accuracy is controlled breathing.
      If we're talking about a historic era that overlaps cartridge bullets, I don't see much difference between any two infantry "spearheads." The difference maker is the quality and quantity of the shaft that supports them.
      ...but that's just my ignorant opinion.
      I guess the Ottomans were unlucky enough to lack the resources to build a vast railroad system when the strategic importance became self-evident after the US Civil War. Connecting the east coast of North America to California, then, the much more lucrative Pacific trade markets, enabled some really radical shifts in transportation and infrastructure. I imagine it would be very difficult to match such progress without a similar scale of economic potential.
      Thanks again for sharing.

Spain although controlled a vast land of North, Central and South America even to Alaska. the Philippines (Named after King Philip of Spain) , Brunei, East-indies and North Australia. These colonies couldn't raise armies so they relied solely on the country **Spain** for the bulk of it's army which was probably around 120,000 (Castillian, Aragornese, Basque, Leonese, Asturian, & Navarre.) from the Iberian peninsula population . so together add in total ALL of the European holdings that the Spanish had undisputed reign/control over and that is a total of 350,000. but this 350,000 could NEVER be in one place at a time because Spanish were fighting everyone and everywhere this is why they committed only 1/3 of their army in the Hapsburg-Ottoman war. Ottomans however had more leisure. Their empire was parts of Balkans, Anatolia, Middle east and North Africa, and they get their recruitment pool directly from each one of these regions & cities. the empire was also densely packed which made it easier to raise such an army from these condensed populations, so in conclusion, it's no suprise the Ottomans could raise a force anything around 500,000 and commit to a single front. Unlike the SPanish which were fighting wars not only in Balkans, but Also it's colonies, againts British, French, Dutch revolt, Aztecs, Olmecs, Pueblo indian, Incas, Brunei sultanate, Indonesian sultanate, Shogun of Japan, Rajs of India, wars in Korea and so on etc..Spanish was in a global fight against everybody except Catholics. everything else was fair game

You know when the Turks first arrived Anatolia they called it "Rum" simply "Rome". there is a reason why USA has similar bureaucratics and similar denomination on their state related affairs and buildings.
