It is September 11, 1697 and the Ottoman army is annihilated in the battle of Zenta by the imperial army led by Prince Eugene of Savoy, thus ending the steady rise of the Ottoman Empire over the previous centuries. 30 000 die. The super powers of this period are the Habsburg Empire and the Ottomans. The dominance of the Habsburgs is well documented, but the Ottoman Empire was a civilization that was no less developed and whose culture we know only little about.
This two part series is an expedition through the most complex times that Europe has ever experienced – and an era that still resonates today.

The Ottomans continued to WW1 times, TE Lawrence times, Lawrence of Arabia. He didn't like the Ottomans much…
I teach international law in a bachelors program,so when the idealistic students say the courts are just,this country is great,etc. etc.
I told them about guantanamo,desert storm,libyan crisis,the israeli palestinian crisis,armenian genocide,chechen war,those kinda stuff,and oh boy,you can see the idealism in their eyes gone.
Islam only knows conquest; the Western Liberal Democracies should be harsher against ideological Islamists who don’t respect freedoms of expression and speech
Make video about Preveza 👀
Good riddance..
Ottoman empire changed its invading direction to the ward's eastern side of its borders against (Shea ) Ssafawey empire because the economic foundation of the Ottoman empire was wars looting of invaded countries & imposing heavy new taxes of new capitulate populations…
A wonderful historical coverage & enjoyed video 😊
The World has always been The haves & The have nots .
I'd love to see a show about the Habsburg military frontier and the peoples that manned it: Serbs, Croats, Wallachians… They fought not only on the Ottoman borderland but throughout Europe.
8:25 I would rather say religious than national consciousness. To be considered a Turk in the Balkans you only had to convert, the majority of them spoke little to no Turkish.
Sept the 11th you say mmm, they never forget a good kicking.

What a a fantastic Mentor for Young People 👍
Prince Eugene could not his wealth with him but he sure enjoyed it in his lifetime
Y can’t all docs be this well produced? Bravo, channel 🎉
46:48 pluto was discovered in 18 februari 1930, this astrologist shouldn't be talking about pluto.
After Eugene's death, the Austrians lost all the territory they had taken during his lifetime, including the fortress of Belgrade.
Wherever Ottomans ruled, culture and civilization were thrown back to the sinister times.
Corruption, immoral judicial system and finally atrocities against local populace.
Ottoman culture extinguished itself by the end of 16th century and turned to sheer brutality and cruelty.
Religious fanaticism has destroyed more empires, trade systems, freedom and so on.
This series is one long back-handed compliment: It makes Eugen look disgraceful and portrays the Turks as dignified and honorable while the Europeans are shown as dirty drunken peasants.
Habsburgs end up REALLY in bred. Later in history.
Does it mention the Christian genocide that took place under the Islamic Ottoman Empire, throughout World War I. In an attempt to wipe out as many Christians as possible, the Turks massacred approximately 1.5 million Armenians, 300,000 Assyrians, and 750,000 Greeks.
It’s disappointing to see that you only have 2,5 videos about the Ottoman Empire in this channel (0.5 being this video).
46:15 Pluto was not discovered until 1930 so it could not possibly in an astrological chart of that time. Further, Pluto could not be seen by the crude viewing instruments of the time. At that time the only planets known were, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn.
It's a shame the people lived through the defeat.
Had this man been a contemporary of Napoleon . Napoleon would not of made the history books .
Just amazing work. Masterpiece!
Fabulous! Shows you what us girls can do 🙂
