🚩 Got a big one for you today, the Battle of Varna 1444 AD. The episode is similar in scale and detail to the Battle of Ankara 1402, so if you enjoyed that one you'll like Varna. I covered all three phases of the battle that are usually not mentioned, which make this battle so massive.
The Crusade of Varna, which culminated in the Ottoman victory over a largely Hungarian force on November 10, 1444, effectively ended the European efforts to save Constantinople and enabled the Turkish conquest and expansion into the Balkans and towards Central Europe.

Serbs not only didn’t join the Crussade army, but they also did not allow Scanderbeg with his albanian army to pass through serbia and join Huniadi. If they would not collaborate with the ottomans, the history of the balkans and europe would be so different…
To be historically accurate, never miss to mark the titles of those authorities, when it comes to the middle-ages, for God's sake!
Do the siege of Vienna by the Ottoman Empire and the European coalition especially by the Poland Lithuania
This is a great video but please but some effort for pronunciation of names because you said Mohammed in the worst way possible
What the heck is with the numbers? Even the full of bullshit Wikipedia says that crusaders had numerical equality or a slight superiority.
European historians should stop spreading misinformation about Muslim contingencies and especially Ottoman armies.
With the numbers that western historians always mention one can think that Turks didn’t do anything but constantly reproducing themselfs to cover the losses they suffered from the glorious Hollywood like European knights😅
Damn!!!! Those christian armies with heavily armored knights and cavalry always seem to beat muslim armies that are twice the size..
"No peace cuz religion wars" man we haven't changed much have we? 😮
So even back then the west continued war and death un-necessarily.
sources very reliable !!
