I don’t think United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea applied in 1683.
Wow, had no idea about Eritrea!
Extent* not extend by the way
can we stop with the turkmaxxing
The Ottomans never controlled Zakopane, or any part of modern Poland.
colonialism
Ottomans really looked at the map and said “yeah, I’ll take all of that”
Europa Universalis already told me this.
Obviously a big overlap with Eastern Roman/Byzantine Empire.
If it counts vasal states, ok. Else, ottomans didnt rule for more than a tiny part of current day Romania (Dobrogea, some Danube cities, parts of Banat, parts of the RO-HUN border), and im not even sure they had them all at the time of this map, even. Most of the territory remained autonomous, but under different degrees of vassality to the sultan.
The worst type of colonizer: a Turkish one
The one true Balkan
Did wonders for those places
Didn’t know that Turks conquered the Cossack Capital in Zaporizhia Sich
Asia began at the Landstrasse.
smol
Dang even they couldnt control the straight
Seems like they could have linked up better around the Black Sea. Isn’t that where the Circassians were based
You can put your feet up with that map
Malta, perhaps Suleiman’s most embarrassing defeat (given a 7 to 1 advantage), is suspiciously missing from the map. ***Tuitio Fidei et Obsequium Pauperum!***
Obligatory: Fuck the Ottomans.
They never had Transylvania, also most of the nowdays Slovakia remeained under Habsburg rule
That’s it? Wow, figured it’d have been way larger than that
Fuck the ottoman empire, backward shit
Wow even Ukraine, I wonder why Zelensky didn’t complain
Pax Ottomana period. Good times.
Never controlled the major Ionian islands. Corfu/Kerkyra, Kefalonia, Zante/Zakynthos, and Kythira were never under Ottoman control.
Here are also included Vassal states
I’m surprised the Black Sea isn’t completely encircled considering how close it is to their seat of power.
Super simplified summary of Ottoman history: What if Roman empire, but Muslim?
