How did the Ottomans overcome a Civil War? History of the Ottoman Empire (1400 - 1500)
video description
1. The Ottomans employed steppe war tactics that Europeans were not familiar with. And the Ottomans made good use of gunpowder, cannons and hand cannons that the Mongols learned from China and brought to the Middle East. A century later, Europe developed the arquebus and the Ottomans adapted this new technology to their armies and developed this type of weapon further.
2. Because the war with Christians was religiously appreciated by the Turkish people in Anatolia, the Turkish people migrated from other Beyliks in Anatolia and joined the Ottoman army.
3. The Ottomans were in a region far from Mongol oppression. For this reason, Turkish tribes migrated to the Ottoman lands. Thus, the Ottoman Empire could settle this Turkish population in the new lands it conquered.
4. The Ottoman tolerance of the Christian civilian population and did not press for forced conversion, which protected the Ottomans from great Christian revolts even during the Ottoman weakness, such as the struggle for the throne\r\n

None of the Greek Ionian Islands were taken by the Ottomans. Corfu remained with Venice for the entire 300 years. Only for 21 years was Kefalonia occupied by the Turks. Venice captured St George, and Kefalonia, occupying the island for 300 years. The most southern tip of the Peloponnese was never taken by the Turks either. Mani always was and will always be Greece.

The real question here is why was the Byzantine Empire to direct descendants of the Roman Empire unable to defend the Balkans from the Ottoman Turks? What happened to the traditions of warfare of the Roman Emperors and of Alexander the Great?

14: 26 What a Sultan. Rare to see anyone treating someone of different religion equally and especially threatening with the punishment of death, especially when it comes to Jews back then

14: 40 Then, Judea betrayed Ottoman Empire by allying with British Empire in order to claim Palestine during WWI. A remarkable stab in the back that nobody talks about.

Great video, but like every other empire before or since the Ottoman one ended in tears after the First World War; and they didn't do too well in Armenia in 1915, did they?

Ottomans should have been more like Bayezid, less concerned with -glorious- (often costly) conquests and more concerned with the health and prosperity of the empire.

Timur was wise enough to confirm Mehmed Celebi as the new sultan when all brothers were alive. In the end, he got the power anyways. Interesting!
