The History of the Ottoman Empire (All Parts) - 1299 - 1922

The entire history of the Ottoman Empire (All Parts) - 1299 - 1922

The Ottoman Empire was founded circa 1299 by Osman I in northwestern Asia Minor, south of the Byzantine capital Constantinople. The Ottomans crossed into Europe in 1352, moving their capital to Adrianople in 1369. They expanded in Asia Minor by annexing many small Turkic beylics.
They conquered Constantinople in 1453, and then expanded deep into Europe, northern Africa, and the Middle East. The Ottoman territory increased exponentially under Sultan Selim I, who assumed the Caliphate in 1517 as the Ottomans defeated the Mamluks of Egypt and annexed western Arabia, Egypt, Mesopotamia, and the Levant. Within the next few decades, much of the North African coast became part of the Ottoman realm. Slowly after many wars and internal problems, the Ottoman sultanate started to crumble.

One of my favorites facts from history is that the ottomans and austrians spent centuries fighting each other and collapsed fighting together.

My great grandma was 17 years old when the Ottoman Empire was dissolved. I've met her, she died in 2009.
It's amazing, it was founded in 1299 and is almost still in living memory!

[Gaibreel]

Im still blown away that the Ottomans lasted until ww1 😮

Amazing video! Thrilling and the music was perfection.

I can't express my gratitude for this and similar channels. I'm a history nerd, currently broke and in residential flux, so being able to watch this video and check out for a little while is huge.

Thanks a million, to you and all the history creators on Youtube.

I really liked watching this interesting and well-researched documentary. It kept my attention the whole time. Kudos to the creators!

[codygriffin]

What an amazing video. Thank you so much. I had no idea how wild this history was and I'm ashamed that i never really thought about the Ottoman empire. Thanks for educating me on the subject.

I was listening to History of Ottoman Empire from another YT video one evening in 2015 before I fall asleep. Before I got out bed the next morning, my daughter surprised me by saying, "let us go to Turkey for 10 days Mama!"
We did. It was very exciting. Feels like I want to go back and see more of Turkey.

As a Lebanese, my great grandfather was an Ottoman colonel and I am really impressed to see pictures of him in the classic uniform. It was an amazing empire ❤

Edit : thanks for all the comments and likes !

This was an insane journey, thank you for your work!

[alexgorecki]

I always wanted to learn about the Ottoman Empire, and this documentary did it perfectly for me to just jot down notes and spread out my research to other aspects. I hope there will be many more documentaries like possibly on the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth on how it begun and to the downfall like this would be amazing! but also i want to say keep up the great work. You deserve a lot more subscribers than you have.

When Mehmed II called his father back to the throne his father refused. Although he was a child Mehmed II wrote his father a letter saying. " If you are the sultan come and take the throne, if I am the sultan than I order you to come and take the throne". Murad wanted to spend time in spirutual matters and become secluded but after his sons clever lettee he had no choice to take the throne.

Well done! Very informative, excellent narration of historical events. This part of history was obscured from History curriculum in my high school years. So much of my instruction was focused on western history.

[SALI-suzt]

Thank you for your effort! It is an amazing documentary. I love it

[Ronaldox]
