This channel has achieved a level of organization of the schedule and quality of content that is truly astonishing. I can confidently say, as a long time viewer, that watching the evolution of this channel has been a great pleasure

11:40 Sinan Pasha was accustomed to losing his job. Between service to Murad III beginning in 1582 fighting the Safavids, until his death in 1596, Sinan Pasha was fired from his position five times, only to be reinstated shortly thereafter.

Great video as always, but theres a major mistake with your claim at 20:10. Mehmed III was not the last Ottoman sultan to lead a army personally into a "major" battle. Osman II would be present during the Battle of Khotyn in 1621, Murad IV would lead two Ottoman armies during his two military campaigns against the Safavids (Siege of Yerevan 1635 & Siege of Baghdad 1639).

Sultan Mustafa II would actually be the last Ottoman Sultan to lead a army personally into a "major" battle during the Great Turkish War of 1683-1699. He personally lead his troops during the battles of Osasch (1696), Cenei (1696), and the HUGE Battle of Zenta (1697).

Otherwise a pleasant video K&G.

Having travelled to Romania and Turkey I can say I really enjoy these historical videos. If you haven’t visited these places I encourage you to do so. Beautiful and historical.

I see more of a logistical issue for the Ottoman Empire during this time. As the borders increased, marching off from the capital Konstantiniye to the frontlines of Austria, Iran or Russia became more enduring and difficult. While the enemies of it only had to march out to the next neigborhood to face the Ottomans. Perhaps it would have been more wise for the Ottomans to create 2nd and 3rd capitals such as in Buda for the Austrian front and Baghdad for the Iranian front to stop these ridiculous long wars that resemble a cat and mouse game. An issue of ages old centralisation. The sad thing is, this issue is still ongoing in modern Turkey. All the investment, job opportunities are based in Istanbul. The population is about to rise to friggin 20 million and due to the traffic, rising rents and stress this creates many people move to other cities and can't be arsed as you don't have space to breathe in anymore.

I really like the way how rulers are now presented on a map with an image on the right, a flag in the background centred on the left, and a colour under their name corresponding with the colour of their territory. A simple, pretty and effective means of identification.

😁👍 We expected long ago to continue Turkish wars(from Mohacs to Szigetvár was the 1st stage to intensive wars for Hungary. This is 2nd one (3rd in 1657-64, 4th 1683-1699). Parallel were intensive wars in Aegean sea also.

This is another great series in a long line of great historical series from this channel. My compliments to all those who made this video a reality.

Hi. This video does a good job at explaining some aspects of the politics of the Romanian principalities, but there are many other aspects that should be explained in the next video. Some people might ask themselves why Moldavian and Wallachian voivodes could change so quickly (anyone who had voivode blood could become voivode, including bastards and some faked their origins and claimed to be some lost bastard just to become voivodes) or how the military of the Wallachia and Moldavia worked. You should also explain some aspects of Transilvanian politics like the Unio Trium Nationum, the power sharing between the Hungarian nobility, Szekelys and the Saxon bourgeoisie.
