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. I completely understand the need to make revenue - it's just that you might end up missing some in the end.. Oh well, you have the statistics and know better, I just thought I'd mention....
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.
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.
My great grandma was 17 years old when the Ottoman Empire was dissolved. I've met her, she died in 2009. It's amazing, it was founded in 1299 and is almost still in living memory!

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 enjoyed this history lesson. The way the story was told is easy to follow and using the illustration of the land and the sultans was engaging and fun.

Thank you for taking the time to teach me about my own heritage. I'm Turkish Cypriot (Born in Britain), and at 32 years of age, have only now taken the time to begin understanding my history! Fascinating content 🙏
@freemanontheland507 you should study many muslim countries average iq, such as Palestine where the average is 83, and Somalia one of the lowest in the entire planet.
If you're a Turkish cypriot this is not your heritage what? Do you know about history? Cyprus has its own and way better history. Only a Turk would say this is their heritage. It would be fine if you said that. But Turkish Cypriots have Cypriot heritage
@@Gia1911LogousGreek nationalists argue that Turkish Cypriots were not Turks at all, but were the indigenous people of the island who later assimilated, became Muslims and became Turkified but the truth is After the entire island was controlled, Turks migrated to the island from Karaman and Taşeli regions by the Ottoman administration and Turks from the central part of Anatolia such as Beyşehir, Ürgüp, Niğde, Aksaray, Akşehir and Kayseri were brought home and migrated to Cyprus during the Ottoman period. The descendants of the Turkish Cypriots living on the island today (except for those who came from the Republic of Turkey after the Cyprus Operation) come from the Turks who were sent to the island under Ottoman rule. So he definitely has Turkish heritage.
I was listening to History of Ottoman Empire from another YT video one evening in 2015 before I fall asleep. Before I got out bed the next morning, my daughter surprised me by saying, "let us go to Turkey for 10 days Mama!" We did. It was very exciting. Feels like I want to go back and see more of Turkey.

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.

Religion is not a divider of humanity, because religion is one of the symbols in realizing peace and solidarity with humanity.Every religion was revealed as a guide for human life. The universal value of religion is to keep human life in the corridor of harmony, peace and brotherhood. Let us invite the world community to interpret religion as a unifying tool between people to create peace and unity.All religions are said to have the ultimate goal of humanizing humans.We are religious, one of the goals is for humanity, not just for God. One example, one of the commands in Islam to perform prayer or prayer, the true truth in its purpose is that people do not do heinous things to fellow human beings...Greetings of Peace from the Land of Dayak, Earth of Borneo...

@@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.

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.

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
@@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.

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!
@@jordanfan5896You know very little about the Ottoman empire. First of all, the sultans were all Muslims and strictly adhered to their religion. Even this is evidence that will refute your thoughts about the harem. Napoleon Bonaparte is also a pretty good commander, but he was defeated by an old warrior of the Ottoman empire. My advice to you is to learn history well. Otherwise, you'll continue to talk nonsense, continue to praise and disgrace your stinking commanders.
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.
@@nyny1475Ahh yes I believe the advisors of the turks have a history of doing so. Since Bayaziid I. Early letters to and from Timur showed possible future campaigns. I can see Mehmed 2 finding letters from timur at constantople and loosing his shit. location location location.

Brilliant history of the great Ottoman Empire. It doesn't get as much attention as the Roman Empire but it's just as important in world history. Thanks for sharing!❤️
I've been to Turkiye twice for extended stays from Istanbul to the Hatay region (Antakya & Samandag) prior to the fairly recent earthquakes. I love Turkiye. Some info I knew & some was new to me. Thanks! I found this interesting. 🧿🧿🧿
I think you should look at Ataturk’s life his whole life was basically preparing for Turkish war of Independence and it is amazing I hope you at least look at that!

600 yıl biraz zor gelir öğrenmesi sana hiçbir yerde duyamayacağın bir bilgi vereyim.

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.
@@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. Also, no one talks about the millions of indigenous people killed by Europeans in America, if you're going to make an impartial comment, please mention them.
@@furkanmengi3797 Romania never conquered other nations, we were peaceful people. I do not know about other Europeans counties, any country that invade, kill, rape, etc etc, other countries, are nothing more than psichopats, homo maleficent (they look like us "homo sapiens" but they are not like us, their HEARTS are dark. Only the unloved can massacre and be proud of it, only the forever REBELLION can kill and say "we are the best". But here we also must blame, the leaders that brainwashed the minds off all soldiers, to kill in the name of faith, in the name of whatever....... Stop glorify murder, common people what to live in peace and harmony, all wars on this earth have been made possible only by homo maleficent, they occupy all the high places in all societies, so they can easlly manipulate Homo Sapiens.
@@RealEstate660 As far as I understand, your attitude is not only for the Ottoman Empire. You are against states killing other people to gain power, even if these are soldiers. 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 😔)

@@Universal.. Yes true. Ottomans empire had the millet system. People were regarded by their ottoman nationality instead of ethnicity and religion, Many high ranking officials were from balkan origin. Proud of that empire
@@siliyemoodislamOttoman or Muslim or Turk? These three things are different if you didn't know. Serbians were once Ottoman and yet weren't Muslims, Moroccans were Muslims yet they weren't Ottoman. Having clarified what's obvious, the massacres you're talking about were mutual, you can pretend Turks, Ottomans and Muslims weren't killed by Armenians, Greeks and Assyrians all you like but that doesn't change history.
Learning about History shows us that it's a living thing and that all the modern empires and institutions and believs are not final but only another step in our evolution. It humbles me but at the same time gives me a sense of empowerment.
Ottoman Empire advanced her infrustructure, architecture, skills and numbers of artists, scholars immensely when Bayezid II was the ruler. Many criticize him for his passive policies but in fact, people were very tired of wars. There was non-stop expansion and wars in Mehmed II's reign. Although Mehmed II was the conquerer of these lands, it was Bayezid II who transformed the conquered lands to a part of homeland. Bayezid II was the one who prepared the intellectual ground of the world's strongest empire in 16th century. Think it like a machine: Mehmed II used this machine to it's full might for a long period of time. But the machine needs to cool off to stay undamaged and keep working for a much longer period. Bayezid II stopped the machine, modified and updated it to work much stronger and much longer with much more stability and delivered the machine to Selim I.
@UNOG yeah u r r8 he didnt went to war always stayed in the palace in a drunk position and his son murad iii followed him as his father and the dynasty went on
Well done! Very informative, excellent narration of historical events. This part of history was obscured from History curriculum in my high school years. So much of my instruction was focused on western history.
@@schipfan360 Its called history class in HS and taught to folks who went to school. I learned everything about the Ottomans and especially Attaurk who finally brought Turkey out of the dark ages...
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?
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.
Great, it got me really interested until the end.. I was expecting a little more on the Ottoman Portuguese fronts in Africa and India, but so much was going on at that time, it's not easy to resume over 6 centuries into about 1 and a half hour animation doc.... well done!

The jannisaries troops were very problematic when they realized they actually were able to impose their will on Sultan if they were unhappy.

The janissaries were abducted kids by force from their families from the Balkans - Serbs, bulgarians, greeks, albanians, croats and romanians. Which was kinda ironic and also logical to happen in a certain moment of the history of OE.
Yup. Khan was the title used. Even after the Ottomans started using Sultan they also used Khan. Looking at the title of Sultan Süleyman the Magnificent / Law giver at the height of the empire the guys title is longer than most books lol. Generally they were referred to as Sultan "name" Han (Khan) Hazretleri (his holiness/majesty). Full title included Khan of Khans.

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.
Would you consider making "Siege of Plevne" ? In my opinion, it would be great because it was an interesting war between Ottoman and Russia. Also, there is no video about this topic in English
Well the Sieg of Plevne was probably the most important battle in the Russo-Turkish war that at the same time was the independence war for many balkan countries. After 2 failed attacks the russians asked Romania for help and the King send a romanian army and took control over the romanian-russian contingent, starting a Sieg around Plevna cuting it from food, ammunition etc. An failed attempt of breaking the Sieg failed and the ottoman general Osman Pasha was wounded. Finally he surrended with his troops to the romanian general commander of the troops in Plevna, Mihail cherchez to whom Osman Pasha handed his sword and declared himself prisoner of war.

@@jujola9919 Like the Armenian 1915 Genocide. If you don’t know about it , you can go reading the history of 18th and 19th century of that same ottomans.
Though the Ottoman Empire was far from perfect, its demise has in some ways been a disaster for the Middle East. All kinds of ethnic and religious hatreds that had been kept under control by the Ottomans ignited in the decades following its collapse (many parts of the Middle East had more ethnic/religious diversity prior to the Ottoman collapse). And the end of the last Muslim caliphate, together with the Wahhabi takeover of Mecca and Medina, paved the way for the Saudis to promote a more intolerant and puritanical brand of Islam.
Such an accurate insight you have there. I think we can say that for Balkans too after Ottoman reign and consequently they joined the Soviets. Very unfortunate.
This is an amazing piece of work! I didn’t even know many of these details even though we are taught Ottoman history in Turkey very well. Thank you so much putting a lot of efforts in this documentary video. Very informative and very helpful!
@@Omegaeon1 The origin was Turkic Atman or Ataman. However Osman Bey adopted the name while sending decrees to the muslim rulers evidently due to the connotation to the third caliph.

Ottoman is a world history, whether you like it or not, Turkish history does not begin with the Ottoman Empire, Atam Oğuz, and before, Atatürk is a great leader, if Turkey is in this modern and democratic state today, If I can wear a mini skirt as a woman, hold hands with my boyriend and go for a coffee, it is worth everything. Most importantly, if I have the chance to live freely and with respect for women, If I have the right to choose in the political arena as a woman, and most importantly, if I can live independently, this is THANKS TO ATATÜRK. But when it comes to Erdogan 🤣🤣🤣 you're right.
Jordan Fan，Prophet of Environment。范楚漳，環境先知： 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!! ?;&$
38:31 Fez wasn't seized from the Portuguese. What happened is that they were 2 Moroccan dynasties at the same time. As the Saadis started capturing more and more land an eventually Fez, the Wattasids saw their end closing and decided to ask the neighboring Ottomans for help in exchange for allegiance. Fez remained under the Wattasids for 9 months as a vassal state before their dynasty was defeated and the Ottomans made peace with new Dynasty since they've claimed to be a Caliphate themselves.

Thank you for putting this together. In Turkish, the letter 'c' is pronounced like the letter 'g' in English word 'gem'. So, Cem Sultan sounds like Gem Sultan :) For a Turkish, it is unpleasant to the ear to hear it as 'Kem'.

These days Britain still catches loads of flak over its empire, as though it alone deserves criticism. But since ancient times, empires were the norm rather than the exception. Russia is an empire, the USA is really an offshoot of the British empire, and has reserved the Americas for itself, and China displays most of the characteristics of an empire as well, with Tibetan and more recently Islamic regions being systematically suppressed in favor of so-called ‘Chinese norms’. Imperialism is alive and well and is still thriving today
Russia is actually a bad example here. Britain gets a bad rep for being a Colonial empire, not just an empire. Russia expanded peacefully into siberia with indigenous peoples actually just making a lucrative deal for joining Russia, and expansion in europe was very often expansion into enemy territory after successful defensive wars against nations like poland/lithuania/ottomans But I get your point. As an example, the ottomans enslaved more slavics than europe enslaved african americans, yet nobody mentions this
@@artyomarty391 Peter Ustinov (half Russian, half Anglo-German) points out that Russia and the USA developed at roughly the same time, and by roughly the same methods. While USA had a semi-lawless ‘Wild West’, Russia in many ways had a semi-lawless ‘Wild East’. But I don’t buy your description of Russia’s westward expansion being totally peaceful. Battles were fought too - often by individuals acting as a proxy for Russian interests. IMHO the whole of Asian Russia are de-facto colonies, if not de-jure. Once orders started coming from Moscow these ‘colonies’ were effectively expropriated into the huge Russia of today. Not surprising so many states opted for independence after the fall of the Soviet Union! As to the USA of the 19th century, one has to admit that the original British colonies - once they had gained independence - simply appropriated to themselves the right to ‘colonize’ westwards by calling it expansion - with disastrous consequences for the indigenous people. Apart from the small Indian population today, each and every individual in the USA is a de-facto colonial!
@@CONNELL19511216 i was born in Siberia, I've met many indigenous peoples. To me it seemed they all could care less who they belonged to. In other words, they didnt feel like Russia "captured" them. Such a notion also supports many historians, if not all, that Russian simply peacefully annexated all indigenous peoples even if Russian eastward expansion was sometimes with military conflict, you cant compare it to, for example, the outright military capture of Britain with India The westward expansion of Russia is a bit different. First, you have to take into account that these west countries were agressors themselves. Moscovy was taken by control by lithuanians and poland. In any case, I agree with your initial point that many countries were empires, and many countries are still ARE empires. But my point was that Russia, specifically, was not as such an Empire as you would think, compared to others (although today its a different story).
The video is very well worked and widely covered about almost everything in Ottoman history. I just thought maybe you could tell a bit more about Cem Sultan, that whole series of events are really important for Ottomans' relations with Europeans. Also, as a Turkish person, i think there are so many wrong pronounciations of the names. Even if i did understand what you are saying i had a bit of confusion sometimes. That could have been more worked on but overall the video is really good!
@@whispz2590 the period the two brothers lives was kind of mediocare but still important. It was the start of the question the Ottomans had to face about the ester and west, it was what built a lot in their relationships with europeans which is important considering what caused their downfall
@@kerimkerim2898 yes (i’m not saying they should learn turkish just for a video.), if a person is working on a culture they are not part of, then they must beforehandly prepare to pronounce and get their all facts right. this is clearly not a high bar to set.

@@alpayerdogrul "Turned during the war" Armenians did NOT fight the Turks, they had no capability of doing so. The Armenians were exterminated at will.

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.

Some Turks can't accept that Atatürk had Albanian ancestry because Atatürk is an important character for them.
Because Atatürk is the father of the Turkish nation.
Besides, it is obvious that Atatürk is a European (physically) ...
Besides that there are millions of people of Albanian (European) origin in Turkey.
The number of people of Albanian origin is about 5 million (or more)

"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.

Do you know about history?
Cyprus has its own and way better history. Only a Turk would say this is their heritage. It would be fine if you said that. But Turkish Cypriots have Cypriot heritage
@@Gia1911LogousGreek nationalists argue that Turkish Cypriots were not Turks at all, but were the indigenous people of the island who later assimilated, became Muslims and became Turkified but the truth is After the entire island was controlled, Turks migrated to the island from Karaman and Taşeli regions by the Ottoman administration and Turks from the central part of Anatolia such as Beyşehir, Ürgüp, Niğde, Aksaray, Akşehir and Kayseri were brought home and migrated to Cyprus during the Ottoman period. The descendants of the Turkish Cypriots living on the island today (except for those who came from the Republic of Turkey after the Cyprus Operation) come from the Turks who were sent to the island under Ottoman rule. So he definitely has Turkish heritage.

@@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.

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.

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!
@@jordanfan5896You know very little about the Ottoman empire. First of all, the sultans were all Muslims and strictly adhered to their religion.

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.

@@ethemyilmaz78 sallama
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.

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.

What is great about being a murderer? a sociopath? it is nothing to be proud of.
@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. Also, no one talks about the millions of indigenous people killed by Europeans in America, if you're going to make an impartial comment, please mention them.

But here we also must blame, the leaders that brainwashed the minds off all soldiers, to kill in the name of faith, in the name of whatever.......
Stop glorify murder, common people what to live in peace and harmony, all wars on this earth have been made possible only by homo maleficent, they occupy all the high places in all societies, so they can easlly manipulate Homo Sapiens.
@@RealEstate660 As far as I understand, your attitude is not only for the Ottoman Empire. You are against states killing other people to gain power, even if these are soldiers. 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 😔)

En öne çıkmışsın knk
If you guys didn't understand what he said he made a joke or meme
(I think so)
Ottoman Empire advanced her infrustructure, architecture, skills and numbers of artists, scholars immensely when Bayezid II was the ruler. Many criticize him for his passive policies but in fact, people were very tired of wars. There was non-stop expansion and wars in Mehmed II's reign. Although Mehmed II was the conquerer of these lands, it was Bayezid II who transformed the conquered lands to a part of homeland. Bayezid II was the one who prepared the intellectual ground of the world's strongest empire in 16th century.
Think it like a machine: Mehmed II used this machine to it's full might for a long period of time. But the machine needs to cool off to stay undamaged and keep working for a much longer period. Bayezid II stopped the machine, modified and updated it to work much stronger and much longer with much more stability and delivered the machine to Selim I.

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
@@ahmetmdre4129 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.
Great, it got me really interested until the end.. I was expecting a little more on the Ottoman Portuguese fronts in Africa and India, but so much was going on at that time, it's not easy to resume over 6 centuries into about 1 and a half hour animation doc.... well done!

@esoterra8050 the best comment here!
stolen comment
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.
Would you consider making "Siege of Plevne" ? In my opinion, it would be great because it was an interesting war between Ottoman and Russia. Also, there is no video about this topic in English
Well the Sieg of Plevne was probably the most important battle in the Russo-Turkish war that at the same time was the independence war for many balkan countries. After 2 failed attacks the russians asked Romania for help and the King send a romanian army and took control over the romanian-russian contingent, starting a Sieg around Plevna cuting it from food, ammunition etc. An failed attempt of breaking the Sieg failed and the ottoman general Osman Pasha was wounded. Finally he surrended with his troops to the romanian general commander of the troops in Plevna, Mihail cherchez to whom Osman Pasha handed his sword and declared himself prisoner of war.

Genocide. If you don’t know about it , you can go reading the history of
18th and 19th century of that same ottomans.
Also at the start of 20th century the biggest GENOCIDE 1915 .
Go back and get some real information .
Though the Ottoman Empire was far from perfect, its demise has in some ways been a disaster for the Middle East. All kinds of ethnic and religious hatreds that had been kept under control by the Ottomans ignited in the decades following its collapse (many parts of the Middle East had more ethnic/religious diversity prior to the Ottoman collapse). And the end of the last Muslim caliphate, together with the Wahhabi takeover of Mecca and Medina, paved the way for the Saudis to promote a more intolerant and puritanical brand of Islam.
otto had never been muslim caliphate. it is a title for controll muslim.

Literally was looking for a video like this last week. Awesome stuff
Overall a great documentary. My only demerit would be the pronunciation of many of the leaders names and regions. Check the pronunciation of subsequently (subseekwienlty) near the middle of the video. Other than that it was a great video.
Seeing how much different the world was in the not very far past, says how much the world will change. This is the wisdom of learning history. It shatters the default assumption of any given historical point that history has stopped.
Yeah, the only thing currently preventing territorial claims is the US, really.
Without the US, Russia would likely invade Ukraine, and China would most definitely conquer more than Taiwan.
Alas, the west is in decline.

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!! ?;&$
38:31 Fez wasn't seized from the Portuguese. What happened is that they were 2 Moroccan dynasties at the same time. As the Saadis started capturing more and more land an eventually Fez, the Wattasids saw their end closing and decided to ask the neighboring Ottomans for help in exchange for allegiance. Fez remained under the Wattasids for 9 months as a vassal state before their dynasty was defeated and the Ottomans made peace with new Dynasty since they've claimed to be a Caliphate themselves.

These days Britain still catches loads of flak over its empire, as though it alone deserves criticism. But since ancient times, empires were the norm rather than the exception. Russia is an empire, the USA is really an offshoot of the British empire, and has reserved the Americas for itself, and China displays most of the characteristics of an empire as well, with Tibetan and more recently Islamic regions being systematically suppressed in favor of so-called ‘Chinese norms’. Imperialism is alive and well and is still thriving today
Russia is actually a bad example here. Britain gets a bad rep for being a Colonial empire, not just an empire. Russia expanded peacefully into siberia with indigenous peoples actually just making a lucrative deal for joining Russia, and expansion in europe was very often expansion into enemy territory after successful defensive wars against nations like poland/lithuania/ottomans
But I get your point. As an example, the ottomans enslaved more slavics than europe enslaved african americans, yet nobody mentions this
@@artyomarty391 Peter Ustinov (half Russian, half Anglo-German) points out that Russia and the USA developed at roughly the same time, and by roughly the same methods. While USA had a semi-lawless ‘Wild West’, Russia in many ways had a semi-lawless ‘Wild East’. But I don’t buy your description of Russia’s westward expansion being totally peaceful. Battles were fought too - often by individuals acting as a proxy for Russian interests. IMHO the whole of Asian Russia are de-facto colonies, if not de-jure. Once orders started coming from Moscow these ‘colonies’ were effectively expropriated into the huge Russia of today. Not surprising so many states opted for independence after the fall of the Soviet Union! As to the USA of the 19th century, one has to admit that the original British colonies - once they had gained independence - simply appropriated to themselves the right to ‘colonize’ westwards by calling it expansion - with disastrous consequences for the indigenous people. Apart from the small Indian population today, each and every individual in the USA is a de-facto colonial!
@@CONNELL19511216 i was born in Siberia, I've met many indigenous peoples. To me it seemed they all could care less who they belonged to. In other words, they didnt feel like Russia "captured" them. Such a notion also supports many historians, if not all, that Russian simply peacefully annexated all indigenous peoples
even if Russian eastward expansion was sometimes with military conflict, you cant compare it to, for example, the outright military capture of Britain with India
The westward expansion of Russia is a bit different. First, you have to take into account that these west countries were agressors themselves. Moscovy was taken by control by lithuanians and poland.
In any case, I agree with your initial point that many countries were empires, and many countries are still ARE empires. But my point was that Russia, specifically, was not as such an Empire as you would think, compared to others (although today its a different story).
What are you saying, we should just accept subjugation and forced vassalage because it was "the norm" in primitive times?
@@okultusrexus3660 Nope. I was saying that all countries in the west did it so it’s wrong to single out any single country for special criticism
Took me awhile to finish watching this. But I'm glad I did. Nice job.
Thanks a lot!
@@Knowledgia---Your welcome.
Much better than any Hollywood crap.
Thanks you and all the history content creators on RUclips.
The video is very well worked and widely covered about almost everything in Ottoman history. I just thought maybe you could tell a bit more about Cem Sultan, that whole series of events are really important for Ottomans' relations with Europeans. Also, as a Turkish person, i think there are so many wrong pronounciations of the names. Even if i did understand what you are saying i had a bit of confusion sometimes. That could have been more worked on but overall the video is really good!
"almost everything in ottoman history"
yeah fitting 600years of history in 1 vid length of 1.5hour is almost everything of ottomans
@@whispz2590 its obv not gonna be everything but just the general hustory of the ottomNs
@@whispz2590 the period the two brothers lives was kind of mediocare but still important. It was the start of the question the Ottomans had to face about the ester and west, it was what built a lot in their relationships with europeans which is important considering what caused their downfall
so you expect him to get a turkish pronounciation lesson after all the work he did? these women never get satisfied these days.
@@kerimkerim2898 yes (i’m not saying they should learn turkish just for a video.), if a person is working on a culture they are not part of, then they must beforehandly prepare to pronounce and get their all facts right. this is clearly not a high bar to set.
As a Türk who knows a quite amount about Türks history, the video is in a very objective tone. Pretty good work. Keep it up!
I didn't like how the Armenian Genocide was just a little side note. More time should have been given to the atrocities imposed upon the Armenians.
@@NorthernMike 600 years of history. It is obvious that not every single subject can fit in a specific length. But it should be pointed out quite clear how Armeniens turned during the war suddenly against people who they lived with and shared so much for centuries.
@@alpayerdogrul When a people exterminate 1+ million humans it deserves at least 1 minute in a 1 hour & 30 minute video. Just my opinion.
Can you explain what you meant by the Armenians turning on people? I'm confused about what you mean.
@@alpayerdogrul And what war? The Armenians barely fought the Turks. There was no Turkish - Armenian war.
@@alpayerdogrul "Turned during the war"
Armenians did NOT fight the Turks, they had no capability of doing so. The Armenians were exterminated at will. How else would over 1 million perish at the hands of the Turks? It was similar to the Nazi's exterminating 6 million Jews during WWII.
Many Turks give excuses for this Genocide, don't be one of them. Look it up on Wikipedia. This Genocide is finally getting the recognition it deserves.
Great job on the video, crazy how each Sultan outdid the previous ones.
