Kings and Generals animated historical animated documentary series on the Ottoman Wars continues with the second video in the mini-series on the Long Turkish War. In the aftermath of the battle of Calugareni of 1595 ( • Battle of Calugareni 1... ), the Ottoman empire is on the back foot in its war against a wide European alliance, but the battle of Mezokeresztes of 1596 would show that the sultans are still strong enough to enforce their will.

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
I am extremely thankful there is a platform for historical material since cable TV went the way of “aliens . . .”.
Come and join us
Couldn’t agree more. I love this channel
So true, I am long term subscriber and it's just amazing how good this channel started and how great it is know. One of my favorite channels in the English language
Ikr I remember when they had 50k subscribers. Now they get more views than any TV show.
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.
when u are bad at ur job but u are the only one who know how to do it
Dang. No job security there at all.
He was lucky🍀 he didn't lost his head only his job😉
@@laistvan2 it'd be different if it was Mehmed II or Selim the grim
He must have been working for J Jonah Jameson.
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.
With the way they talk about the Ottomans in their videos these days, its hard to believe the Ottomans were any sort of power at all :D - Next they'll probably say they were just lucky and didn't win anything at all.

*Do you have an obsession with Turks? I think you should treat it.*
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.
A very fine analysis, if I say so myself.
Then the governor of buda/Baghdad would very likely to rebel in time of weak ruler/Central authority
Muhammad Ali (Egypt) did it in our time
Same storyy as Roman Empire, overextension and too many borders to secure.
@@history_repeats8201 kemal changing the local alphabet to imitate europeans had nothing to do with the increase in litteracy, plus, what darkness are you talking about, muslims at that time were leaders in science, medecine, and many other fields, you clearly have no idea what are you talking about.

@@unnagathaking thats how its in romanian. And i will stick with it
@@cgt3704 you purposely mispronounce names in Romanian? If that is true and not just you covering up the fact that you accidentally pressed n instead of m, Romanian in one weird language.
@@m.aryaanamiri2755 nope. It was a typo
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.
Finally ottoman war series restart.
I am very happy now😊😊😊😁😁😁
Terrific video series! I can't wait for the next installment.⚔⚔⚔
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.
The video we all waited for. Lovely work.
Kings and Generals is my favorite channel. Please keep up the good work :)
Looking forward to the next one!

@Leo the Anglo-Eastasian thats great!
I woke up and what do I see another video on Kings and Generals keep them coming love your videos they're all amazing I've watched them all
I suspect it is Hatvan not Hatvar (the siege at 13:15 of the video). Keep up the good work as your videos are superb!
Great video once again with great quality images. To see the channel grow over the years is really inspiring.
Very good video this is the first time i even heard about this war very interesting.
Thank you , K&G .
🐺
Love this channel it's a hub for history lovers like myself! Anyway awesome channel! Love it here
You have made quite the name for yourselves, very nice job
😁👍 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.
Another interesting video 👍🏻
Thanks for the amazing video! Make more videos about Ottoman, Safavids, Tatarian wars
This put me in a good mood
Beautiful follow up to the Turkish war video
Probably the most impressive feat of this video is that you pronounced the Hungarian words 99% correctly. Respect ;-)
The battle that i wanted a video on i was waiting to see this for 2 and half years
I love this channel!
So many great videos you guys released this past week. You guys are really upping your game.
Thanks for the great video! I appreciate that you guys are now covering the start of the Ottoman Empire’s slow decline after already having covered it’s impressive rise to power
Western publishers are only putting their own fronts to the fore. However, the Ottomans were fighting the Safavids in the east and the Portuguese and Spanish in the west during this period.
Ottoman soldiers entered Morocco and took it under Turkish control, whereupon they defeated the Portuguese + Spanish army in the war of the 3 kings.
In the war of the 3 kings, the king of Portugal died and it was such a heavy blow that Portugal lost its independence after this war.
They said they can't Cover everything at once.
They still made videos about these wars, check their playlist
Thanks!
This channel is what the history channel SHOULD have been.
He’s not The Last Ottoman Sultan to command an Army during a Major battle, Murad IV is
Do you know what major battle he led during this reign? Would love to research this.
@@blackfalcon1610 Sultan Murad IV? He lead the Ottomans to a war of reconquest of Iraq to reclaim it from the Safavids after they occupied it under Shah Abbas the Great
@@blackfalcon1610 He reconquered Baghdad from the Safavids as well as taking over other parts of Mesopotamia and the Caucasus region, he was known for using massive flails, now exhibited in Turkish museums
@@blackfalcon1610 Murad IV led last army of Ottoman in reconquest of Iraq from Safavid Empire
Nah Mustafa II lost the battle of Zenta
Wished to see Siege of Nagykanisa in this series as well
Thanks 🙏🙏
Must say I'm a proud subscriber
I have heard that story before - Vanguard consisting of peasants/ infantry indulged in looting the camp and then there was a massacre
imagine using the *blitzkrieg* of the kitchen, *kamikoto* to cook *italian food*
another banger video btw
As a hungarian, I can tell you, that you are quite good (not perfect but newer mind :) ) in reading and prounouncing hungarian names. But... in hungarian, "LY" is like "J", and we prounounce it like "Y" in your english word "Yes" . But all in all, you are making a great work, thank you Kings and Generals!!!!
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.

An in-depth explanation of History....
Who needs TV when channels like this exist!
Upload more videos it's so interesting
I pushed the Like button twice.
Mehmet III isn't the last sultan to lead a field army personally, I am pretty sure that Mustafa II, but it wasn't a major ordeal, as the sultans by then had become shockingly incapable. Though if Mehmet III was the last to lead on in the Long Turkish War, yeah, that's true.
I hope you guys cover Murat IV's campaigns, that young man had a storied, and possibly psychotic life. I actually was talking with my one teacher about him years ago, and I put forth the idea that he may have been insane, she countered with "or was he acting? Was he pretending to be that way?" and I was like "oh that's good, that's totally possible."
Murad IV literally butchering people in the cafe because they drinking Coffee that is Prohibited in his reign, What a dude
@@rhelyputra4680 one story i heard was he was choking a jannisarry soldier to death with one hand while giving orders to others what to do. Arnold Schwarzenegger of the Turks
@@rhelyputra4680 Yeah, he and the Kadizedeli or whatever the fanatics that were loyal to him were called. I believe he only did that to reestablish state authority and it was an easy, legal, like Islamic legal action since smoking and drinking are forbidden. Ironic given that he dies of cirrhosis.
@@kaanerdem2822 yeah and there's a story that his mum had a secret lover that he found and he beat him to death with a mace in front of his mum.
This is about the same time Korea got invaded by Japan in the Imjin War (1592-1598).
@Mehmed Islyamov How are you doing Brethren? Are the Rüss treating you well? From Pakistan.

Fun fact Carl Mansfeld who was the commander mentioned here is the brother of Ernst Vaughn Mansfield Famous 30 years war commander
I love The vid !
"Ceddin Deddin" soundtrack from Sid Mier`s Civilization 5 at the end of the video made things more epic.
I love “taking us from long Turkish war to quick Turkish delight”.
Please more videos in this series
Coming next:
Turkish-Safavid War (1604-1606): Battle of Urmia
Moldovan Magnate War (1621-1622): Battle of Cecora, First Battle of Khotyn
Turkish-Safavid War (1623-1639): Battle of Baghdad (1st and 2nd)
Cretan War (1645-1669): Siege of Candia, Battle of the Dardanelles (naval battle between galleons)
Austrian-Turkish War (1663-1665): Battle of Sanktgotthard (Ottoman Empire reaches its maximum territorial extent).
Polish-Ottoman War (1672-1676)
Great Turkish War (1683-1700)
Sultans:
Ahmed I (1603-1617)
Mustafa I (1617-1618, 1622-1623)
Osman II (1618-1622)
Murad IV (1623-1640)
Ibrahim (1640-1648)
Mehmed IV (1648-1687)
Suleiman II (1687-1691)
Ahmed II (1691-1695)
Mustafa II (1695-1703)
Wrong, Ottoman Empire reached its maximum territorial extent in 1590, with the treaty of Istanbul.
Me prays to my god's that it's true
@@kasadam85 1672 bucaş anlaşmasıyla ulaştı. 1590'da doğudaki en geniş sınırlarına ulaştı. 1672'de batıdaki en geniş sınırlarına ulaştı.
@@kasadam85 Yes. But I think usually when people say 1683 they mean their maximum extent in Europe.
I hope you also are going to make a video on the Great Turkish War..the war that finally cemented the threat the Ottomans posed to Europe
Kings and Generals always a classic
I am watching already kings and general since they had only 150k, many other history channels had more subscribers than Kings and General, but none of them were so serious and passionate to offer regulate videos, they are far the channel with the most historical videos on CZcams, now they are number one on CZcams as subscribers, and offers high video quality in the same time, I don’t think they do any profit, because behind a single video is lot of work and many people working on..: so guys please watch all the ads that CZcams puts on their videos because it’s the only real income
We also want to see the coverage of great victory Ottomans had at the *Defence of Kanije*
@Kings and Generals Can you do the sieges of Ostende or Antwerp during the Eighty Years war? Both are huge military spectacles.
Chad Mehmed III vs Virgin Maximilian III
The main reason for the failure and stagnation of the Ottoman Empire was its weakness in raising statesmen and its inability to follow the development of its rivals. The pashas who came to power by bribery were very ignorant about controlling the army and war techniques. High-level conflicts caused history-changing errors. Just as the Crimean khan allowed the enemy army to pass during the siege of Vienna.
I am impressed with pronouncing of Mezőkeresztes, well done! :D
Happy Nowroze Everyone🥳🎇
Thanks again.
Ah, can't have this spoiled yet! Historymarche are doing a 3 part series, need to watch that first.
Sir, I request you to please continue the napoleonic war series 🙏
Please sir
When will you do the Emu war?
So you can win even if you dont want to fight or have a good plan, sometimes victory just falls on your lap by mere luck and desparate effort of your soldiers.
At 13:11 you say and write "Hatvar" on the map, but are you sure you don't mean "Hatvan?"
I have never heard of this Hatvar before and cannot find any reference to it.

Can you make a video about karamanids
Upon claiming the throne, Mehmed III had all of his 19 brothers executed, the record number of the entire Ottoman Dynasty 🥶 cant expect such guy to be merciful to some Europeans
What would you choose: 2 army vs army that end with wast manpower or brothers game and winner take the throne 😁✨
@@moonshadowsong He's not criticising it btw
Can you make video about IV. Murad's reforms and his campaigns ? I think he is a ruler to define Machievelli's Prince. I once read that he even translated the Prince to Ottoman Turkish.
I don’t even need to watch the video before I like 👍 the video. It’s an instant thing. Keep it up !!
Sultan Mehmed III wasnt the last to lead his army, it was Sultan Murad in the 1600s against safavids
Kanalınızı ilgiyle izliyorum. osmanlı ile ilgili video yapıyorsunuz fakat türkçe altyazı eklemiyorsunuz.
Nothing more satisfying than watching rectangles fighting every day
I know this video is mainly about the Ottomans, Balkans and the West, but I just want to point out that Poland looks super huge in the video!
Mehmed pulled out the victory in the end there.
The period of these wars is the time to enter a period of chaos in the Ottoman Empire. Due to internal problems, great problems were experienced before the Köprülü family was appointed as the vizier.
On the other hand, the greatest chance of the Austrians in the Battle of Haçova was the fact that the best quality and deadly, well-trained and disciplined Ottoman soldiers (Janissaries) were destroyed on the roads due to supply problems and diseases during the Safavid War.
It was not only the technical and organizational progress that started in the West, but it was effective in the Ottoman soldiers falling far below their own standards.
If this war took place before the Ottoman Safavid War, they would have to fight with a much stronger Ottoman army. (Not in numbers, but with discipline and well-trained Ottoman soldiers)
Hey!thanks for your great videos. Can i have your permission to translate your videos into persian?
Great video! Can you also do the battle of Sisak 1593? Its as far as I know the first ever united christian victory over the ottomans and it created a balance at the croatian-ottoman border for the first time in a long time (ever since the Krbava-battle in 1493, ending the hundred year croatian-ottoman war), marking the beginning of the end of Ottoman conquest towards Northern Italy and the alps in general.
The battle of Sisak is the battle before the battle of Mezokeresztes. The Battle of Sisak did not initiate the collapse of the Ottoman Empire. In this war, the Austrian, Habsburg and Carniola troops fought only with the border unit of the Ottomans. The Ottomans started the Mezokeresztes war in retaliation for this attack.
@@suleymandavudsargon9576 I never said it initiated the collapse of the empire, I said it stopped the ottoman expansion in that area (if you don't count that one time where the ottomans held Sisak for a year) and brought balance at the border due to being a massive morale boost for the defenders. The battle itself was important and the news spread across Europe at lightning speed.
@@blindtherapper2470 i m sorry. I read it wrong english is not my main language.
@@suleymandavudsargon9576 it's OK 👍
Croatia did not exist in the late 16th century. At 12:12 you can clearly see there is no Croatia on that map
When is the next episode coming out????
As this video demonstrates, greed can surely affect the battle.
A video about the Hungarian war of independence 1848-49 🙏🙏🙏
LOL I just decided to go back to Civ VI after playing lots of Stellaris, wanted to go listen to Hungary's theme music again, and then this pops up in my recommendations.
Mehmed III is not the last sultan to led a major battle but Mustafa II is
