- The entire history of the Ottoman Empire (All Parts) - 1299 - 1922
The Ottoman Empire was founded circa 1299 by Osman I in northwestern Asia Minor, south of the Byzantine capital Constantinople. The Ottomans crossed into Europe in 1352, moving their capital to Adrianople in 1369. They expanded in Asia Minor by annexing many small Turkic beylics.
They conquered Constantinople in 1453, and then expanded deep into Europe, northern Africa, and the Middle East. The Ottoman territory increased exponentially under Sultan Selim I, who assumed the Caliphate in 1517 as the Ottomans defeated the Mamluks of Egypt and annexed western Arabia, Egypt, Mesopotamia, and the Levant. Within the next few decades, much of the North African coast became part of the Ottoman realm. Slowly after many wars and internal problems, the Ottoman sultanate started to crumble.

It's really good & well researched; but don't you honestly think that the amount of ads might well be counterproductive due to their extremely interruptive amount cutting the video constantly.

@@yaragi I watched the whole of it. Not one ad. Just saying.
Wasn't FULL DOCUMENTARY. About Gjergj Kastrioti (Skenderbe), who had the same childhood story like Vlad Tepes (Dracula).
He turned back in Arberi and ruled as a leader for 25 years and never loosed a battle against Ottomans.
One short time you put him in the video.
One of my favorites facts from history is that the ottomans and austrians spent centuries fighting each other and collapsed fighting together.
Ironic
and almost same thing happening today between greeks and turkey, they wasting their energy by insisting on their rights without giving any each other. if they'd get along with each other somewhere in the future they would probably quadruple their power or more. Ironically, they refuse to see their past; If they did, they could realize how powerful and prosperous they have been throughout history when the two sides of the Aegean join together.
But with this logic, the Greeks will also want to claim land by saying that the western Anatolia belonged to them thousands of years ago. what happened, the Greeks reclaimed enough land, the Turks protected enough land. maybe they can try to bond with each other with small gestures to solve geopolitical problems. The problem is that they both consider giving little land a matter of honor. this is very old-fashioned and meaningless stubbornness. Both sides are the same in behavioral and cultural matters. Despite their different colors, both sides have the same mindset in terms of both belief and social aspects. Those who do not accept this do not realize that they do not accept it because they are the same. i believe greek and turk allience might shape the next modern century for whole europe and middle east. but they both need suppress the radicals within their country first. do i know how? no, thats the job of the politicians.

The Arnavut (🇦🇱) have contributed enormously in the Ottoman Empire and also in Turkey today ...
Many Albanians were recruited into the Ottoman Devşirme and Janissary with 42 Grand Viziers of the Ottoman Empire being of Albanian origin ( ... )

"Modern historians would also think it necessary to refer to the many examples of cooperation (sometimes to mutual advantage) between inhabitants of the Albanian lands and their foreign rulers - above all, in the case of the Ottomans, with their innumerable soldiers and officials of Albanian origin.
Example (Statesmen, revolutionary, generals, notables or ruling families of Albanian origin) :
- Lala Shahin pacha (first Beylerbey of the Ottoman Empire, governor of Rumelia).
- Lala Mustafa pacha defeated the Venetians in Famagusta (Cyprus)
- Mehmed Pasha Arnavud, Grand Vizier of the Ottoman Empire.

- Mustafa Hussein, Grand-Vizier of the Ottoman Empire.
- Mehmet Ali, vice king of Egypt, founder of an Albanian dynasty that reigned for nearly 150 years, including the last king of Egypt, Farouk I.
- Mustafa Kemal said, Atatürk, statesman founder of modern Turkey (having Albanian origins)
Etc...
Famous architect of the Ottoman Empire of Albanian origin:
- Sinân Mimar built the most beautiful mosque of Istanbul (Süleymaniye, between 1550 and 1557), the Shehzâde mosque of Istanbul, the Selîmiye mosque of Edrine (his masterpiece), the white mosque (Yeni Djami) and nearly 360 other monuments.
- Sedef Qar Mehmet Biçakci of Elbasan, architect of the Hyppodrome or Atmeydan Mosque.
(System of aqueducts of Istanbul built by several Albanian architects)
- Mehmet Mustafa Agha and Hoxha Kasem built the Valid Sultaniyé Mosque in Galata (Istanbul -1873).

"Courage leads people to victory, indecision to danger,cowardice to death."
~Selim the Grim
Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to... well I’m sure you know
Plenty of examples of Courage leading to huge defeat and death and a few where cowardice has lead to out right victory.
Better stratagy, weapons, training and a bigger better equipped army is definitely a better option for victory every time than courage.
Boringly good planners, military leaders who are good at employing the right people in the right places to keep their armies well supplied and led by great tactical Generals are the rulers who really win wars and create the biggest empires.
The further back you go the more influence and effect having a brave leader had on the out come of a battle and it definitely helped but its far from the only thing or the most important thing for a great leader needs to be a conqueror.
Just take Augustus, he was a very average general and not particularly brave, once leaving the sight of a battle before it started and leaving it to his main General Agrippa to lead the battle and all his battles from then on.
It was the one thing that Romans disliked about him and most of his propaganda was trying to make up for this perceived lack. However he was a truly great leader, Emperor and Politician and especially good at the boring stuff of feeding the masses and putting the best people in the right places.

I genuinely believe the Ottoman empire would've expanded even more if it had a better geological location, The Ottomans were surrounded by everyone yet they put up a good long fight
I mean that's natural if you're such a large empire, enemies are everywhere
@@bc_7644 they were the enemy to everyone, nobody disturbed them, they wanted always the war...!
@@TheMiril88 Really? In the video it is mentioned that the Russians were abusing their rights as "protector of Christians in the Balkans," would you say that the Ottomans somehow provoked it?
While it is true that the Ottoman Empire went to wars often to serve their self interest, often with a very thin if not existent cassus beli (?), that isn't very remarkable, looking at other empires. For example, Alexander the Great attacked the Persians with no provocation from them. There are many other cases in history like this.
Ultimately though, all empires crumble. Even the west is unfortunately in decline now.
China is a rising threat.
@@TheMiril88 Completely agree
I always wanted to learn about the Ottoman Empire, and this documentary did it perfectly for me to just jot down notes and spread out my research to other aspects. I hope there will be many more documentaries like possibly on the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth on how it begun and to the downfall like this would be amazing! but also i want to say keep up the great work.

When Mehmed II called his father back to the throne his father refused. Although he was a child Mehmed II wrote his father a letter saying. " If you are the sultan come and take the throne, if I am the sultan than I order you to come and take the throne". Murad wanted to spend time in spirutual matters and become secluded but after his sons clever lettee he had no choice to take the throne.

The idea of recalling the retired Sultan Murad to the throne came not from Mehmed II, who was still a young lad, but from his old and wise Sadr- Azam Çandarlı Halil Paşa. As is well known, Mehmet II had Çandarlı Halil executed following the capture of Constantinople, primarily as a result of rumors spread by his rivals alleging that he took bribes from Byzantium to dissuade the Sultan from invading the city. According to many historians, another reason for Mehmet's rage was the letter delivered to the retired Sultan at Çandarlı's behest. Appearently, the boy Sultan had been deeply offended by this intervention to his authority.
@@bassoprof Mehmet II is populary praised for writing such a clever letter in Turkiye. However, if Candarli wrote the letter unbeknownst to Mehmet II, it is understandable why he would be mad.

@StarsMyDestination Why should I cry?
@@RealEstate660 It is so obvious that you did not research about the Ottomans, the Ottoman Empire was never a murderer, on the contrary, they did not kill anyone innocently because of their religious beliefs, which enabled them to dominate from Europe to the Crimea and from there to eastern Iran and all of North Africa, believe me, for centuries in eastern Europe. If they had committed genocide, they would never have remained in power for that long, on the contrary, the Ottoman Empire gathered scattered and constantly conflicting Communities in Eastern Europe and yes I am proud of it because the Ottoman Empire had a profound effect on today's world. I agree with you, because Europeans don't like the Ottomans very much because they remained in the shadow of the Ottomans for 300-400 years.

I agree and support you here, but in the past these had to happen, for religion or not, if you don't kill and grow, they will kill you. I can say that this thought is valid for today.
I wish there were no wars, but unfortunately, even today, developed countries such as Russia and Ukraine are fighting for their own interests (I do not blame Ukraine because it is Russia that started the war). There are still wars in Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan and Libya, and thousands of innocent children and civilians are harmed unjustly. I mean, wars will end when man realizes that he will live without destroying his son (unfortunately, I don't think that will ever happen 😔)

The lives of those Ottoman monarchies are so short lived and died so readily and rapidly that they will be better off became Consultants than Sultans. In reality they all short lived because they all had a huge Harem of many dozens of concubines women they can constantly have sex with to negatively affect their health and longevity. There were even more women in a Ottoman Turkish Harem than Black women in Harlem!!
Napoleon Bonaparte has conquered Egypt when Egypt was still belonging to the Ottoman Emoire.
While Wellington only knew how to Welding tons of junk metals together. And Nelson was only capable of deploying his half nelson moves in wrestling, Napoleon Bonaparte had lots of great military & strategical maneuvers. Among them are his ability to Blown apart the bodies of all his enemy’s soldiers with his cannons while keeping his own soldiers from being Blownaparted. Napoleon Bonaparte’s soldiers all have great appetite therefore they would constantly ordering French Fries 🍟 from Marshal McDonald while he still needed to constantly loading cannons with Quarter-pounder cannonballs!;;,)?!
Nonsense, the truth is that none of the Turkish channels have a history of the Ottoman Empire from its foundation to its collapse.

@Ziezi The First mongol take after seljuks
@Ziezi The First Not necessarily, the first Turkic empire that was documented is the Great Hun Empire, which was established around 210BC/220BC.
@Ziezi The First what no bulgars came from western russian area while the turks came from central asia and northan china
@Ziezi The First "bulgarian" haha, even their name is from Turkic Bulgars. I just love when you historical revisionists from some minor balkan states pretend making sense as if anyone would care yet just portray your centuries old historical grudge against the Turk subconsciously like some mentamidgets
Dude, i am loving to inform my self about the ottoman empire. We in the west are not empowered to search about this empire, case it was a east power with this such a different culture of ours and what we know about ocidental europe. After seeing Netflix series about it and Memet II, I found my self wanting so much to get to know about it more and more. Thanks for this such long video about the Ottoman empire!!
Not only to you, this history has not been told to us. In our history lessons at school, false and false information was used to make us forget the Ottoman Empire. We were not asked to take self-confidence and courage from our Glorious History.
i love looking at ancient history videos like this, and seeing the modern day effects. seeing how groups of people thrive/struggle form not so far behind history. it paints a great picture, and many people today use modern day excuses to blame countries for things that have been long developed

- Lala Mustafa pacha defeated the Venetians in Famagusta (Cyprus)
- Mehmed Pasha Arnavud, Grand Vizier of the Ottoman Empire.

@@Universal.. Thank you for your honesty my friend! It is an undeniable fact that the Albanians were(and STILL are) the most loyal ally of the invading Asiatic hordes. Imagine if only George Kastriotis, the great Christian warlord could see that ...
I can hear him rolling in his grave...what a shame to his legacy!!!!
@@CaptainHarlock-kv4zt Not all Albanians have been with the Ottomans throughout history. (Gjergj Kastrioti, Çerçiz Topulli, Arvanites etc...)
Example : The advent of Skanderbeg at the head of the new Albanian state had a strong impact and earned him the esteem of the Vatican and the great European powers of the time. With the exploits of Skanderbeg and after those of Achilles, Alexander the Great and Pyrrhus (his compatriots Pelasges) ends one of the most beautiful periods of the history of the region.
The League of Lezhë (Albanian: Lidhja e Lezhës), also commonly referred to as the Albanian League (Albanian: Lidhja Arbërore), was a military and diplomatic alliance of the Albanian aristocracy, created in the city of Lezhë on 2 March 1444. The League of Lezhë is considered as the first unified independent Albanian country in the Medieval age, with Skanderbeg as leader of the regional Albanian chieftains and nobles united against the Ottoman Empire.
Source 📜 : Babinger, Franz (1992). Mehmed the Conqueror and His Time. Princeton University Press. p. 54. Archived from the original on 18 May 2016. ... a solid military alliance was concluded among all the Albanian chieftains along the Adriatic coast from southern Epirus to the Bosnian border.
The fame of this valiant prince reached, also, France where half a dozen dramas were written in his honor and where, especially, J. De Lavardin, devoted to him a famous biography which charmed Ronsard so much that he composed the following sonnet (in old French):
Sonnet to J. De Lavardin (🇫🇷) sieur du Plessis-Bourrot
Epirus only is in fertile horses,
Good to ravish the taken at the Olympian course,
But in warlike men, whose ancient blood
Boasts of being the descendants of the valiant Achilles.
Pyrrhus is my witness, who, razing many a city,
Had the old Argian wall for a tomb,
And Scanderbeg, hating the Scythian people
Who from all Asia drove out the Gospel.
O great Epirote! O valiant Albanian!
Whose hand has defeated the Turks twenty times and twice,
The terror of their camp, the terror of their walls,
You would have died however, swallowed up by Fate,
If the learned work of the wise Larvardin
Had not, by forcing your death, regained your battles.
Source 📜 : (History of Georges Castrioti, nicknamed Scanderbeg, king of Albania - 1576).
SKanderbeg must be placed in the rank of the greatest generals of which the History makes mention and that the Turks were well advised by naming him prince Alexander in memory of Alexander the Great.

▶ Principality of Samtskhe - 1266-1625 AD.
▶ Duchy of Aragvi (1380-1747) - de facto independent Georgian entity.
▶ Principality of Svaneti - 1460-1857 AD.
▶ Kingdom of Imereti - 1463-1810 AD.
▶ Principality of Guria - 1463-1829 AD.
▶ Principality of Abkhazia- 1463-1864 AD.
▶ Kingdom of Kakheti - 1465-1762 AD.
▶ Kingdom of Kartli - 1478-1762 AD.
▶ Duchy of Ksani (15th c.-1801) - de facto independent Georgian entity.
▶ Principality of Mingrelia - 1557-1867 AD.

600 yıl biraz zor gelir öğrenmesi sana hiçbir yerde duyamayacağın bir bilgi vereyim. Osmanlının kurucusu osman bey şeyh edepaile de misafir olmuştur yattığı odanın duvarında kuran-ı kerim asılı görmüş ve ona karşı uzanıp uyumak saygısızlık olur diyerek kalkmış ve 6 saat boyunca kuran-ı kerim okumuştur sabah uyuyakalmış kuran-ı kerimin başında ve bir rüya görmüş şeyh Edebali'nin göğsünden bir güneş çıkmış ve osman bey in göğsüne girmiş, daha sonra osman beyin göğsüne tüm gökyüzünğ kaplayan kocaman bir çınar ağacı büyümüş 6 büyük dalı varmış. Edebali ye anlatmış bu din adamı onun çocuklarının tüm cihana hükmediceğini soyunun da kızından devam ediceğini söylemiş osman bey Edebali nin kızı ile evlenmiş ve 6 saat kuran-ı kerim okuduğu için soyu 600 yıl mükafatlandırılmıştır. Modern tarih kitapları yazmaz bunu objektif olmadığı için ama her Türk bunu bilir her müslüman buna inanır.

The video was superb. would you mind telling me what program(s) you used to make this video?
Incredible video!!!
I love this channel. I learned so much and there are many details we couldnt learn in history. Learning with map and characters moving like chess is so much faster to memory. Thanks for all your hard work and animation
Thank you so much!!! I am always fascinated with the Ottoman culture, and this is the time to learn more and more!!!!
Yes, the Ottoman Empire is a very magnificent state. Investigate 🙂

It's such incredible good fortune for those of us who love & appreciate historical facts. I am so loving this!! Thank you so much for sharing this within us! It is greatly appreciated💖
1. Bayezid died in a Mescid used as a dungeon in Aksehir Turkey. I am from that small town Aksehir and I remember going there on a school trip and visiting the dungeon right next to Seydi Mahmut Hayrani Tomb. Tour guide was from there and he mentioned that rumors say Bayezid drank the hidden poison in his ring to kill himself when he's captured by Timur.
I appreciate your work well done
Sultan Selim I (Suleyman father) was very strong. He conquered at least 30% of what Ottoman Empire would be.
Suleiman was not a very good leader. He was already at the height of Ottoman power when his father, Selim I, left the country to him. It was very easy to do this when he already had so many opportunities. He also killed his own son, Şehzade Mustafa. Şehzade Mustafa was a very intelligent, knowledgeable boy with a great military genius. If he had not killed him, the Ottoman Empire would probably have moved much further. Also, for the first time in history, a Turk did not rule the Ottoman Empire because of Suleiman. I'm talking about Selim 2. He is the son of a Ukrainian woman. By the way, where are you from?
Yavuz Sultan Selim effect
@@stealarts2111 Suleiman is grear
Maybe if he would reign more than 8 years he would take all Persia and east europe (italia, austria and so one), but the territories of the ottomans was to big to go further out. Everytime when the Ottomans started to take areas of Germany. The germans took that areas back when the army Is going back to the capital. That was common. In the time of Suleiman Khan, no army goes in a open battlefield with them. Thats why his soliders could go into cities like Stuttgart. In those times the ottomans got taxes from nearly all european countries. It was not difficult to take more areas. It was difficult to stay in that areas. So if they go the europe the persians started to attack them. If they attack persia european contries attack them. Thats the reason why they couldnt conquer more areas without loosing some. Even Suleiman Khan said that he reached the final borders of the ottomans. More than that could lead to dangers.
@Kubilay Rûmi Not many Ottoman sultans. After Selim II, only the children of foreign concubines began to be enthroned. The mother of any sultan before her was not a foreigner. Except for a few sultans who came after Suleiman I, none of them were good.
Absolutely stunning ! Thank you for this great work !
this was a great history lesson! 🙂
History is not just theirs it's ours as a human race. I'm fascinated with ancient civilizations around the globe 🌎 with that said
I'm going to watch the history of the ottoman empire and love learning more and more about the brave men and women that fought for their legacy, for future generations. May they never be forgotten. Forever honored and given the utmost respect.
