I used to live in Hungary for 5 years , however since last year, I have moved to Italy. Is the battle of Eger deemed one of the most prestigious Hungarian victories?
@Gray Jedi The one wherein simple Serbo-Hungarian peasants wiped the floor with the 'elite' Ottoman cavalry? Blimey, I reckon that those horsemen's skeletons are still arse-hurt about it, haunting the graveyards.

I think that it stems from him stating what we'd consider common sense, but hadn't been articulated up to that point.
However, seeing as many of his teachings are ignored throughout history, even today, you could argue that it isn't so obvious once the action has kicked off.
@@YitzharVered Also, being able to state the obvious in pretty language will get you a long way. :D

Great video. You really put effort into pronunciation this time, I appreciate that.
Fun fact: Dobó István is still revered as a local hero in Eger to this day. There's a statue of him and everything. There's also a stone engraved with the names of the dead, including their profession - the fact that there was even organisation to know the profession of everyone who died is amazing in and of itself, but also note how well Dobó used his men's specialties to their advantage, allowing them to practice the crafts they knew instead of just shooting and stabbing dudes.
TheClownesque sounds like a true legend 🔥🔥
If Turks settled then in france.the Notre dam mosque would've been very popular today
When I lived in Hungary, Eger was a favorite destination of mine. Wonderful history, beautiful village and great museum. Also, Egri Bikavér is a must try for any visitor.
Yes, to all that, but here is another interesting tidbit of information. Does anyone know, that there is a striving Turkish-Hungarian Friendship Center exist in Eger, administered both by Hungarians and Turks living there? In addition Austria and Bavaria are counted among the true friends of Hungary also. Time has a way to heal even the deepest wounds, and thanks God for that.
I do not unterstand why total war doesnt give us a game about this time up to 1700 its such a colourfull history full of different armies

Check out the movie "egri csillagok" / -stars of eger- it s based on a book, so the siege is only half of it, and i don t even know if you can find a subtitle in english but it has fairly epic scenes for a 1960 movie
It's very funny that you ask. Me and my wife met in one of the least expected of ways; We randomly played CS:GO together,she still lived in Sweden and me in Austria, and i fell in love with her ,so we started writing a lot with each other and fast forward a few years we now live together in Austria and got married last Saturday.
Thank you for the advice! We will watch it together if we find it with subtitles :D
Egri Csillagok (The Stars of Eger) - one of the best selling books in Hungary for the last few decades - tells the tale of the siege of Eger. They even made an epic movie off of it. It was the first castle sieging, epic battle type movie I saw as a child. So, this battle is a pretty big deal and very well known in Hungary. I am so hyped for this video!
It was one of the best selling book in the past hundred years. In grade four, in 1965 when I was 9 years old it was mandatory to read in the Summer Holiday.
Suleiman's strategy outside buda was impressive. He was real habsburg remover.

the minister replies: - A football match.
FJ: - Who is playing?
M: - Austria-Hungary!
FJ: -Who is the opponent?
@@the_white_rabbit I am familiar with that. Its just strange for a Hungarian fighting amongst Habsburg lines to call his men to fight for their 'country'. Which one do you mean for god's sake?(Btw at that point Austria and Hungary were independent political entities)
@@Walangord Dobó faught for Hungary not for Austria even though the countries western and northern part was occupied by the Habsburgs. Hungary did have a king (a child) and he was holding claims to all of the territories of the historical kingdom. The people who lived in the country was still hungarian. The people who faught at Eger were mainly hungarians with some minorities who had a hungarian affiliation (this was before nationalism born in the 19th century). The turkish wars killed 2/3 of the hungarian population. Mainly because the people had to pay taxes to their nobles, the church, the habsburgs the hungarian king and the turkish sultan too or the mix of these according to the place where they lived. But I'm sure as the big revolts and constant uprisings show us they never gave up their hungarian identity not even after the habsburgs completely take over. Austria was named Austria-Hungary for a reason not Austria-Chechia or Slovakia or Croatia. It was because Hungary never stopped fighting for it's rights and they just simply got tired of it and in 1867 they compromised with the hungarians.
most clevver of suleyman... snatching buda from underneath their own feet and once again a legendary defense against the ottomans . loved it !!
I'm Turkish and I love Ottoman history You all would too if you were also, But what I love just as much is underdogs fighting for their homeland againt's greater odds.
Well damn done Hungarians at Eger. 💪👍

If you want to know more about the awesome defence of the castle of Eger, I recommend reading The Eclipse of the Crescent Moon by Gárdonyi Géza.
It is one of the most famous Hungarian novels and has been translated into English.
German translation: Sterne von Eger
Turkish translation: Egri yildizlari
@@Signorina1552Gárdonyi Géza:Egri csillagok. A csata: Holdfogyatkozás . Az író sírja a várban van. Dobóé jelképes, nem valódi. Dobó Istvánt a Dobóruszkai templomban találták meg 2008-ban-ma már nem Magyarország, a Felvidéken van-.

@@madluck04 beautiful defence and beautiful town of Eger. Greetings from a Türk.
Did the defenders use European arms or were they fighting in the Islamic warfare style?
As a Hungarian i grew up on the heroic stories of this age: many novels are written about this era which we had to read as "summertime reading" given out by schools, Géza Gárdonyi's The stars of Eger was even made into a 2 part TV movie.
I believe the story of Master Gergő (Gergely Bornemissza) steered me towards engineering as a boy.
I feel you neighbor. In Croatia we also read a lot about the struggle against the Ottomans. Battles of Siget (Szigetvár) and Sisak (Sziszek) hold almost mythological importance. Could you send me the link to the Siege of Eger movie? I would really like to watch it even if there are no subtitles.

And buda
@@frknunal ?
Yes ;)
This period is easly the most intresting part of hungarian history. It has Game of thrones (Season 1-4) level characters and stories.
Hum as a Foreigner, my favorite part of Hungarian history is how the Hungarian managed to crush the mongols during their second invasion :) Giant "invincible" empires should definitely think twice before attacking Hungary XD
Hbo !!! I think you got a got level epicness story here , go make one right now!!!
@@mastermindd That's what happened during the first invasion. For the seccond I'm afraid I disagree. Nogai Khan invaded specifically because it was a time of stability for the Mongols and there were no more civil wars going on among them. However Bela IV had made impressive military reforms, increasing his heavy cavalry and massively investing in stone castles. When the Mongols came back in 1285, invading in winter in a hope to surprize the Hungarians, they were unable to seize castles, and were worn down by attrition and harassment due to the Fabian tactics of the Hungarian. Both armies the Mongols had sent for their invasion were eventually exhausted. One was crushed in battle by the king, and the one led by the Khan was defeated by local Hungarian forces led by Roland Borsa. Almost the entire Mongol forced was either killed or captured. When a few years Later Mongols tried to invade Poland once more, Hungarian came to help the Polish people and the Mongols were severely defeated once again.
My favorite age is the period ranging from Andrew II to Loius the Great. But I also like the nomadic period, the battle of Pressburg was an epic feat, also in total winning more than 5 major battles against big European forces, something even the Mongols would have been proud of. Of course the emphasis is always put on the second battle of Lechfeld, because that defeat consolidated western Europe and led to the integration of Hungarians into Europe.
it's sad that you mention GoT as a tv serial
Suleiman in Buda be like: "Whoops! I just pulled a sneaky on ya!"

Ottomans: * takes 24 forts in a few months *
Hungarians: wtf dude calm down
Me an intellectual: +33% siege ability, Urban was Hungarian
Now you mention it these Great Bombards were cast thanks to him weren't they ? :)
@Bluss Wrong. Ottomans learned the existence of "cannons" from Ragusa near Adriatic sea (Prof. Halil İnalcık stated this clearly in his works). And initially bought from them.
Serbians had artillery comparable to Ottomans during Kosovo (actually you can watch it in this channel) .
Battle of Nicopolis did not have any large caliber gunpowder units on both sides to my knowledge.
Ottomans had "Tüfengi" a lighter medium range, medium power firearm. The "musket" is invented in west. The "firearm" was invented in China.
Abus gun is simply a lighter howitzer, which was already known and used in Europe in 1420s.
Urban casted the guns. Until than guns of these calibres were not possible to cast. Urban had an idea how to make them.
@Bluss The Ottomans were not known for science - they were lucky in being right in the middle of the trade route with China. Urban helped them start heavy gun-casting, and destruction was ready to roll.
@Bluss Erm...Ottoman Science? Could you elucidate? Also, if Urban was just a smelter, what about the European AND Ottoman records that state his bombard-manufacturing?
Finally, the rocket-flight thing has only a single suspicious account to back it, and MythBusters proved it to be false.
@Bluss Wrong, the first use of gunpowder occurred in China before the Mongols appeared as an accidental discovery by alchemists seeking a way to produce gold
Been waiting for this to continue, definitely one of the more interesting series you guys have released!
What a fascinating defense, heroic, legendary!
This channel just made my day great!

Thank you for this great video,the victory at Eger is in the top3 of greatest victories in hungarian history.I was impressed by your pronunciation as well,most people butcher hungarian names.
Watching these excellent videos always leaves me wanting more. Can't wait for the next Ottoman video!
Very good video guys. But small editing mistake, in 1552 Francis I is already dead (1547). The french king during Eger's siege was Henry II.
BEAUTIFUL fighting spirit Hungary 🇭🇺 from "Texas with respect"
Thanks for your great work K&G.
I hope you will cover the Algiers expedition (1541)which ended with catastrophic results for Charles V , Andrea Doria ( 17 000 men ) and The Expedition of Mostaganem ( 1558 ) ( 6 000 killed and 6 000 prisoners of the spanish forces )

Continue like this!
You forget the capture of Tunisia 1535 and the siege of Algiers 1541
And battle of Djerba
Summary: Imperial forces got their asses handed to them
The Ottomans could have mustered around 150k troops , but , with multiple enemies on all sides , it's safe to assume that there were more like 50 thousand troops in the offensive into Hungary . Besides , the central administrative district of the Ottoman empire was Constantinople and , therefore, many troops would be stationed there , so that they could quickly respond in case of an invading army .
Dont forget his wars against Safavids which was on good scale
@@MY-mp6bq no 10 million is more realistic😂😂😂
@Gray Jedi Lmao my hungarian brother.
@Gray Jedi well said mate. You are open minded and not ultra nationalist which deny facts. Respect and greetings from turkey.
@Gray Jedi It's possible the Ottomans did muster 150 thousand troops, but most of them likely weren't frontline troops. Support and logistics are very important for any march, and perhaps those soldiers were also counted in the Ottoman records. Of course, we don't know and won't, but it's a reasonable assumption to make.
You guys are really amazing, and precise! Greating from Hungary :D
18:34 this last part perfectly gives the idea of how ferocious that battle was: contrary to the video on Vienna’s 1529 siege, this scene lets one imagine the defenders just collapsing from fatigue and breathing a long sigh of relief, all of them either wounded or exhausted. It’s a very difficult atmosphere to portrait, another great score of this channel. This is true history! An emotionless school-like speech doesn’t give neither justice to the past nor satisfaction to the listener: praise Kings and Generals for their great work!
I love this channel so much, thanks for such quailty content!

A valiant defence from the Hungarians indeed. Inventine thinking and an experienced commander winning out over pure military might and bloated ranks. It's impressive and fun to hear.
If only our pasha's were as great commanders as our sultans.
Greetings and respect from a Turk.
I think Pargali Ibrahim was a very talented Pasha . I don't know about his commander abilities, but he was good 'politician'. Ottoman downfall started with Hürrem and incompetent Sultans.
Actually I think ottoman politics was the reason why they had bad pashas or generals. If you recruit generals only from the pre-janissary class and not from actual battle hardened corporals, you are going to end up with sophisticated generals that can't think outside the box and fail anytime something goes wrong.
War is chaos and if you can't fight in chaos then you've already lost.
Early ottoman padishahs governed troubled cities, in their youth, that neighboured their enemies which allowed them to become battle hardened generals. Later ottoman padishahs were locked up when they were young so they didn't learn much other than what scholars thought them just like the pashas.

Place names are inaccurate. At that time:
Kassa, not Kosice
Temesvár, not Timisoara
Vajdahunyad, not Hunedoara
Brassó, not Kronstadt
Pozsony, not Pressburg
Liza Smith this screwed up the video for me personally.
For starters, Pressburg is the English translation of the city and this is an ENGLISH video. Hungarians, for instance, pronounce London utterly incorrectly, not to mention their way of calling the Thames 'Temze'. Be that as it may, everyone else - aside from you - embraces such historical diversity.
Secondly, some of the terms are correct, being of Romanian/Slavic fountainhead, e.g. Timisoara, Hunedoara, and Kosice. In fact, 'Kossice' per se is tenfold more colloquial in English than 'Kassa'. Again, you are solely shedding crocodile tears.
And lastly, why non-native speakers are constantly bashing English speakers for their inaccurate pronunciation or terms notwithstanding that they themselves speak English blatantly unwell is beyond me. This is the pot calling the kettle black.

Very good video, the next one must talk about Mediterranean theatre, I think your next video must deal both with safavid theatre, but also with Mediterranean theatre, because you forgot that Charles V took Tunis to Barbarossa, and that he will entrust a great expedition in 1541, the siege of Algiers (with Hernan Cortes), which will be a crushing defeat.
We must not forget also Barbarossa in Toulon, the siege in Nice and Corsica with the French and so on.
So please next Safavid + Mediterranea
Good idea
Battle of djerba also!Major defeat for holy leauge
I was re-watching the battle of mohacs when i got the notification
Another top notch video, thanks!
It’s awesome to see how far you guys have come. Keep up the great work as always:) is there a soundtrack you guys use? The song for the opener is really great
9:13
a correction; Budin was not ruled by Beylerbeylik of Rumelia. Beylerbeylik of Budin was established that year, Malkocoglu Bali Bey being the first Beylerbeyi of Budin.
Excellent pronunciation of Hungarian town names, impressive.
Well done for the pronunciation Kings and Generals, you clearly made an effort. It wasn't perfect, but still much better than most.
I love it when you do campaigns with several battles
Summáját írom Egör várának,megszállásának, viadaljának,szégyönvallását császár hadának,nagy vigaságát Ferdinánd királnak.
Ballassy Balint.
Your narrator is amazing!
Love for the channel😍😍♥️
Awesome video as always
Thanks for the video. I've just learned that the education system is trying ti cover up a part of our history. I am an 18 year old hungaryan and my teachers never mentioned that the Habsbrgs besieged Buda. They only mention the part where the Ottomans captured it. There is 1 sentence about it in the book but, it basicli sais that we defeated the Habsburgs before any ottoman forces arived, and the teachers dont even mention it.
PS: Eger was a large fortress, I've been there 2 times.
The music at the siege of Eger reminds me of Skyrim...
it's song from Europa Universalis 4 if I'm right
It is from skyrim, its one of the songs that plays when ur fighting a dragon
Compare the shape of skyrim and the old Hungary without Croatia.
Nope. I listened both of them for nearly 300 hours and still they are completely diffrent songs.
@@MrSugee-fu2hn nope, it's not from skyrim, and they would need to pay beteshda to use their musics but they credit epidemic sounds
Great video! Thank you!
My favourite historical channel made a video of my favourite siege, its my lucky day!
(When i was young i wanted to be Dobo Istvan, captain of Eger! :))
My younghood favourite book is from this twoo sieges and from the life of Bornemissza Gergely called “The stars of Eger” by Gardonyi Géza who lived for decades in the city to write this book.
I recommend it for anyone who would like to know more from this period from the hungarian view.
One little extra: Mekcsey - who was a very muscular noble and was under Dobós tutelage for ages before the siege - was the formal second in command in Eger, but Bornemissza was the “brain of the city” as Dobó called him, so in really he was the second in command during the siege.
Oh I wish so much that Sabaton considered making a song about the Siege of Eger, it would be a truly great choice for us hungarians I believe ..
Battle of Alcacer Quibir will be awesome. Battle of 3 kings. Battle that involve 3 kingdoms is Ottoman, Morocco and Portugal. Also, please make video about Morocco kingdom e.g Almoravid, Almohad, Marinid, Saadian etc
Morocco is very underrated nation. Imagine Morocco kingdom have conquer part of Iberia, expand to other maghreb countries like algeria and tunisia, also not to forget end the west african soghai empire
That's not until sultan Murad.lll,becomes sultan.
There are more battles to cover for suleiman,then they could go for sultan selim's conquest of cyprus,and possibly helping the alpujarras rebellion(which i would really like it if they did),and lipanto,yemen,war with russians,and then they could talk about wadi al-makhazin.
At the time of Murad.lll
@@azizbey4334 yea we need to wait sultan murad's reign. Also in his era ottomans conquered caucaus completely from safavids till abbas the great's reconquest.
Yes do not forget the rising of cherifien Empire in 1591 under the sultan AL Mansur the Golden and the anglo-Moroccan alliance in 1600

You have a typo it's not 1991
Amazing
Very good pronunciation of Hungarian names. Thank you for the effort!
wow, this is worthy of evey epic ever written about it, & a movie besides to be sure , at the least
If you are interested you might wanna check out the hungarian movie classic based on the siege of Eger called "Egri csillagok". Kinda old, but thoroughly enjoyable.
44 years later, Sultan Mehmet III captured Eger just before the Battle of Mezokeresztes (Haçova in Turkish) in 1596.
Long time ago I read a lengthy book about siege of Eger called "Stars of Eger" by Geza Gardon. Never imagined I would again hear this story on youtube!
Always love your videos kings and generals 😍😍😍♥♥♥love from the Philippines
Just as many Habsburg-Ottoman wars as the Battles of the Insonzo
Great video. I wonder if you would also cover the second siege of Eger (1596) as well. What changed and how did the Ottoman strategy adapt the second time around.
They should do it as far as i think
Brilliant video.
Finaly the new video i love ottoman habsburg wars
