All 623 Years of THIS Empire... Explained by Countryballs 

Love them or hate them. The Ottomans survived 600 years of constant wars and coalitions against them. It's a huge feat to say the least

The Ottomans were mortal enemies with the Austrians for 100s of years and in there final battle they fought together how emotional

🗣 : how many coalitions were former against you Ottomans : Yes

Fun fact: after the elections in Türkiye 🇹🇷 2014, when Erdoğan first got elected president, he offered Armenia to a historic study together to end this discussion, historians from both countries will study together and find out, what really happened there. He even offered Armenia to have unbiased countrys, such as the British, USA and Russia to help investigate this subject... But to this day the Armenian government never agreed to investigate in such coalition with the Türks and still keeps his claims.....

12:26 That part shows the king of Sweden going to the Ottoman Empire after his defeat. He stays there for a long time and brings back a recipe for meatballs (Swedish meatballs come from this king)

Despite the feuds between Byzantium and modern Greece with Turkiye, in the end we’re all brothers of the Mediterranean 🇬🇷❤️🇹🇷

Man ottoman history really is S tier

>Turkey and Austria having a rivalry >Teams up at the last >Both of them dies at the same time

3:22 I see something overlooked here. During the siege of Istanbul, the Byzantines tied chains to prevent ships from passing through the Golden Horn, and Fatih Sultan Mehmet had the ships pass over the land to the other side of the chain (investigate how he did this)

Turks history is S+++ tier, not only the Ottomans, the Huns, the Göktürks, Mughals, Timurids, Seljuks, Mamluks and Safawids were all Turkic empires and more. Each one amazing from their own point of view. Turks were so strong that they often had no enemies left and were their own rivals as Timurids vs Ottomans or Ottomans vs Safawids, or Ottomans vs Mamluks. Peace.

Trivia from a nautical nerd: the Battle of Lepanto was the last battle in European history to be fought by galleys (battleships with oars). After that, it was all sailing ships until the Age of Steam.

I have found most of the video true other than Armenian part .Armenian s where the ones who killed Turkish people and stabbed us from the back when we were in war .In a short period of time there were huge turkish casualties that we had to open a war against them and after the war we exiled the ones who killed turkish people and while doing it we protected them with our own soilders . Also if you have any concerns you can search it yourself but please search it from objective sources. Also if you want to have an arguement we can chat gently.Thanks

Turkiye has one of the best history of all time

Love turkey from India 🇮🇳❤️🇹🇷 Allah bless turkey 🤲

Turks indeed had a decisive role in triggering historical major events like the Migration Period, Crusades, shaping the history of Balkans, Islamization of Northern India, Age of Discovery as well as ending the Middle Ages with the conquest of Constantinople, fall of the Roman Empire.

12:50 That's because they didn't lose to Russia in the winter. They demolished the Russians at Narva during a snow storm. Sure, they struggled with winter like any other nation, but the Winter wasn't reaaaaaaly the problem. They just didn't have a big enough manpower pool and a big enough economy to fight all those enemies at once. The final battle against Russia was in summer, at Poltava.

As a Turk I can confirm every thing because we learned every single thing that happaned.

As a Turkish person, I can say that,thanks for your reaction to Ottoman history, Drew Durnil!

One major thing I got from this video is that Austria was a huge pain in the neck for the ottomans almost like their biggest rival

Yay, a longer video from Drew!!! We don’t normally get videos this long :D

I love that he said eastern rome instead of Byzantium

There is a mistake in the video The Soviet Union helped Turkey yes, but the British and the French helped the Greeks.

Bulgarian country ball is sick 💪🔥

Damn, the Turks are realy something. Probably the greatest military power i have seen

Speaking as a Turk, there is definitely something wrong with this story. He says that the Ottoman empire fought mercilessly, but that is a lie. The Ottoman Empire followed a tolerant policy in the places it conquered.🤨

no way I have history exam tomorrow and it's literally about the ottoman empire thank you drew this was an amazing video, atatürk best

The courage of the Turks is really something.

2023 marks 100 years since the formation of the Republic of Turkey. Happy Anniversary, Turks! 🇹🇷

0:08 there is where Ottoman Khanate formed, not originals Turks begin. For Oguz Turks, they originally formed today's Mongolia, Inner Mongolia(China) and Tuva(Russia) 1:20 Timur captured the Beyazid the First and his eldest son. 1:27 Ottoman Interregnum (1402-1413): Civil War between princes and their supporters for throne. Mehmet the First won the throne and re-establihed the political union over the state again. 1:39 Timurids didn't form today's Iran, they form on today's Uzbekistan. 3:15 That cannons have low firing frequncy. Once fired, the barrel had to wait a long time to cool down. Army couldn't use repeatedly. 3:31 If I'm not wrong that is Empire of Trebizond 3:40 That should be Despotate of the Morea 4:00 that happened in today's Syria, not in Egypt 4:13 Accession of Crimea to the Ottoman Empire, and they become semi-independet state. They have their own royal family, and they had right to claim the Throne of Istanbul if Ottoman Family do not have any sons to inherit the throne. 15:32 Ottoman seek help from semi-independent state of Egypt to stop the rebellion, but Egypt didn't happay over the result and start to march to the capital. 16:44 Crimea War 20:00 1st Balkan Wars 20:55 2nd Balkan Wars 21:15 Ottoman Empire Bombing the Crimea horbar and joining the WW1 21:35 Battle of Sarikamish 22:00 Betray of Armenians, they burn down the cities that helps army, and people who helped for supplies of army. Traitors 22:52 Naval operations in the Dardanelles campaign 23:00 Battle of Gallipoli 23:48 siege of Kut Al Amara 24:22 Invasion of Istanbul 25:25 Turkish War - East Front Victory 25:50 Victory in South Front 26:39 Great Offensive 26:52 Liberation of İzmir, and end of armed conflicts and start of peace talks 27:24 Republic of Turkey formed 27:31 End of Monarch

I have found the part that greece invades anatolia wrong because they werent the ones who were living there in fact they were the ones who burnt historical areas and houses before they go if you don’t believe me you can find objective sources from American general Bristol

The reason why the folk songs withdrew from Vienna is that they came there not for Vienna but for another purpose, and the cannons of war are not suitable for a castle, otherwise we would have suffered too many losses and still taken the vienna despite the insufficient cannon, but too many losses were too ridiculous.

26:05 Since there were no soldiers on this battlefield, which we call the Southern Front, the people defeated the French soldiers with their own weapons.

Contrary to popular belief, the Ottoman's arch-rival was not Russia, but the Habsburgs. The Ottomans did not take Russia into consideration until the 18th century, and left that job to the Crimean Khanate, which was its vassal.

Petition to have drew put up the River Gee County flag of Liberia

21:35 Ottomans lost total of 73k soldiers at Battle of Sarikamish but 60k of them frozen to death without a single battle. What a tragedy...

I like how drew cut the Great Arab Revelation part, and he never spoke about it

Ottoman Army sent several divisions to Galicia to help the Austrian troops against Russian Brusilov offensive in 1916. On that front Austrians and Ottoman troops fought side by side. There were also Austrian artillery batteries fought in the Gallipoli Campaign.

14:32 you can see the Napoleon ball sailing away 😂

I am one of the people who has been lucky enough to see the ultra rare Venice flag in the wild

The "old timey hat" Drew talks about around the 15:50 mark is called a fez.

I was a little disapointed there was no mention of Siege of Malta in this video, but overall great stuff!

Pls make videos like this more often

Good vid Drew well done 👏 ❤❤❤

alternate title: drew waiting for WWI for 28 minutes while unnecessarily epic music plays in the background

Ottomans hadden really good history

Nice to see a presentation of Turkish history presented by an American. I love this world

13:35 Oran is the second largest city in Algeria, and this references to French colonization of Algeria

Great video

We need Drew dwelving into Sabaton memes!

The ottoman had the strongest land army in its history, nor could any state fight the ottoman alone on land.

i was waiting for this video

Another amazing video and play countryball at wars

I love Ottoman Empire because he have fight the Europe Single-handedly

1:20 Actually Timurs captured the Ottoman Leader, and they telled his all 4 sons they were the new leader, this caused a 4 side Ottoman civil war, but they quickly united back

Hi drew love your videos

Sabaton, 11:09 song:winged hussars, album:the last stand

Petition for Drew to Put The ACTUAL Flag of Martinique in The Background(Day 11)

Most people think the ottomans and the austrians were working together. They werent. Austria had just took bosnia from the ottomans and they only worked together because if germany

Nice vid

That was incredible.

Petition for Drew to put the Puerto Rican flag in the background,

11:03 My favourite moment

When the polish storm in drew ‘my life is now complete’

Me bored at work waiting for Drew to drop a video

Daily Dose of Drew Received Engage Happiness

My biggest flex is I watched this before dru

Funny how they always had to fight a 1vall type of situation

"Denize düşen yılana sarılır" -II. Mahmut

People pointing at Germany for losing two World Wars: Bulgaria, losing both World Wars and the Cold War fully:

salute from Turkiye thanks for the video

You should do total tank generals!

Drew the song is just called Winged Hussars

Some people just think hmm turkey, but turkey is just has some mad amounts of lore and history.

Guys, I totally watched the whole video in 10 seconds

Drew didn't notice a joke when Australian ball is swimming to the beach reversed...

This Video Suprised Me

I just love how drew says one thing and the video just proves him wrong the next second

Can you do the history of Indonesia?

I love drew❤️❤️

If your wondering what the song was about the winged hussars band is sabaton

Perfect Timing! This Video Popped up While Watching a Turkish Made Show About This Empire 😂😂😂(Guess What Drama it is)

Bulgarian countryball doas way more better history videos than anyone else

Ottomans were first to use canons as lethal guns, before that they were only used as scarement things. Ottomans made them demolishers as they also invented mortars. Mehmed II was the inventors of both an ottoman SUltan

I'm watching this with kayava in the background lol Edit: It sounded epic together

Petition for Drew to put the South Korean flag on the wall (Day 69+53)

Drew calling Persia Russia is a Drew moment of all time

27:35 just you know we chanced our country's pronunciation from turkey to TÜRKİYE because we didnt like the name since it reefers to the turkey animal here is a quote from wiki to explain it better since english isnt my first language: Turkey adopted its official name, Türkiye Cumhuriyeti, known in US English as the Republic of Turkey or more commonly known as Turkey, upon the declaration of the republic on 29 October 1923. In 2021, however, via the UN, Turkey changed its spelling to Türkiye.

That Caucasus war is Battle of Sarikamish was maybe the most devistating war in Ottoman History. 78k Ottoman Soldiers died without seeing a single Russian soldier because of bad comandmanship.

Petition for drew to watch the history of greece

Another day of asking Drew to put up the Guernsey flag

Petition for Drew to make a series covering Ace Combat and its multiple universes: [Day 138] New Jersey Transit operates interstate bus routes in northern New Jersey, most terminating at the Port Authority Bus Terminal (PABT) in Midtown Manhattan. There are several routes to the George Washington Bridge Bus Terminal and one serves Lower Manhattan via the Holland Tunnel. Some of the routes that use the Lincoln Tunnel to the PABT make stops on 30th and 31st Streets in Union City to allow for local connections in Hudson County, others remain on Route 495 and do not stop.

Very pog video

Otoman empire normale bringing the uno revers card

We are going to ignore that Montenegro was the First one to revolt against the Ottomens in the balcans and became independent(with help of Republick of Venic).
