There is also the element of the political use of piracy in order to make sure the empire control the seas of its vast territories witjout being involved themselves to put out provocations and another element is to protect the north African teretorries from European piracy and invasions that has happened the same period by the Spanish, Portoguese and English. Tunis for example has been suffered badly from Spanish piracy, so it was a common tool to use them

It's remarkable how the fixation on the Atlantic slave trade, of which this would technically be a part- just moving in the opposite direction, has resulted in so few people being aware of the Arab Muslim slave trade that went on for over 13 centuries. Tidiane N'diaye, a Senegalese Anthropologist wrote an interesting book called The Veiled Genocide, available in French only unfortunately.

Congratulations for the effort! There is a small mistake in the map. The three Romanian Principalities (Wallachia, Moldavia and Transylvania) were NEVER part of the Ottoman Empire, they were only allied vassal countries. that is. The northern border of the Ottoman Empire was always at the Danube. There were never mosques in the Romanian principalities and Muslims never had the right to live.

Ottomans couldn't care less about Iceland, or North Africa for that matter. Ottoman rule in Algeria and Morocco was only nominal and in practice the local rulers didn't even pay any tributes. It's not that the Ottoman sultans were too busy with internal strife or campaigning in Europe to partake in the raids, it's just that they probably weren't even aware of Iceland's existence.

interestingly nobody speaks nowadays of muslims who enslaved other nations, but everyone speaks of black slaves. black slaves were treated far better in comparison to what muslims were doing, highest level of barbarism yet they all talk about how pure their religion is, nonetheless doing the worst crimes in human history

It's so weird to see just how differently people view literally slave raids depending on who doing them.
Europeans buy slaves: -worst crime in human history! Effects to this day! -
Anyone else raiding Europe for slaves: -celebration of the slavers and mockery of the victims, quickly forgotten-

Jan Janszoon is pronounced (more or less) as Yahn Yahnszohn. The English -oo- is written as -oe- in Dutch.
You put a lot of effort into making these videos. Why not go the extra mile by finding out how things are properly pronounced?

I wonder what would happen if the Ottomans actually invaded the Iceland and turned it to a giant fortress and a basis of piracy activities. Would the western European navies unite to take Iceland back?

They are from Algeria, not Morocco! The Algerian navy was the one that controlled the Mediterranean, not Morocco! Morocco was a backward country mired in superstition

They weren-t really Ottoman though, since the first raids came from an independent republic in Morrocco and the second came from the virtually independent Algiers regency

Unpossible. White people were never slaves and any claims of white slavery is a white supremacist tactic to cheapen the suffering of the African diaspora.

And funny thing is all those foreign women who were enslaved and made concubines actually ended up destroying the empire from within. Great poetic justice there

Yup, we Icelanders were abducted and sold as slaves in Africa. No one seems to feel particularly sorry for us though. How come? 1/10 of our population was taken!

By consensus of Muslim jurists this was not halal even if these pirates claimed that it was or that some Cheikh somewhere gave them permission.
