      IT was the strong islamic faith that made the ottomans strong ever since osman ottomans or kayi at that time believed in jihad as a way of achieving glory, they only had two things in mind one was to fight in the way of ALLAH second was to create a strong muslim state in the region and to expand the religion. thier faith was strong to an extent that they believed that if they survive than they are GHAZI(HOLY WARRIORS) AND if died than SHAHEED(martyrs) they believed strongly that struggle and heaven is meant for them same faith has been utilized by many muslims throughout the centuries including arabs fighting against eastern roman empire and sassanid persia or salahudding ayubi and nuruddin zengi fighting against crusaders .

      @stmc2618 The Crusaders were warriors dedicated to God, with the cross of Christ as their standard. In the Iberian Peninsula, they freed the region from Muslim rule, allowing maritime exploration and the formation of global empires. They spread the Christian faith, destroyed the Turkish Empire after centuries of strife and contributed to the creation of Israel. And it is never too late to retake Constantinople. I bet we can count on the Armenians and Kurds for payback.

    Constantine XI could truly be considered one of the great emperors of Rome, its a shame he had to be its last one. The Eastern Romans and Constantine lived and died in those final days as true Romans would, fighting and dying as only the true inheritors as Rome could. The Romans of antiquity would have been proud to know that when the fall of their empire came, it came at a bloody price to its enemies.

    Thank you for making a video of Fall of Constantinople! I've been interested at this event recently and it's a coincidence that there's a video for it!

      Western Empire had its true heroes and brilliant leaders during its last years too, but they were not emperors, only statesmen and army marshals - "magister militum". Aetius and Stilicho were among them,.

      ​@chris894r god what if majorian was reborn after the nicene empire reconquered constantinople from the Latins. Or in 1071. What he did with the west. If he did that to the east would jave been glorious

      To be fair the last Roman Emperor was a 16 year old.

    Even pre-Ottoman times Turks always had the zeal of conquering Constantinople; Attila's Huns, a Seljuk-Pecheneg-Tzachas coalition plotted a siege of the city while Kutrigurs, Avars, & Bulgars led by Krum besieged it directly

    Great video. Both sides gave it their all, so much desperation, politics, economic insights, strategies, and twists played out in this grand siege alone. What a mighty conclusion to a resilient, long lasting and influential empire, and a stunning rise to a new Islamic superpower, ready to show more of their martial and military prowess to Europe. Can't wait to see more.

    Everyone was impressed when they saw the titles of the Spanish monarchy, including those of states that no longer exist, such as Roman Emperor, King of Jerusalem and the most recent Was King of Two Sicily.

    Just to elaborate on the fratricide law, in Turkish tradition, a king cannot choose his successor. That is God's prerogative. Only he chooses kings and blesses a leader with power.
    The law stated that fratricide was "appropriate", not a mandate. The rhetoric and justification behind the law at the time was, "should one family suffer or a whole country?"
