Kings and Generals animated historical animated documentary series on the Ottoman Wars continues with the first video in the mini-series on the Long Turkish War, as the Ottoman Empire and the alliance of European states lead by the Habsburg Monarchy and the Holy Roman Empire clash over the control of Hungary, Wallachia and Transylvania culminating at the battle of Calugareni, where prince of Wallachia Michael the Brave fought against the Ottoman grand vizier Koca Sinan Pash. Following the defeat at Lepanto and the death of Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent, the Ottoman Empire is on the backfoot, but is still strong enough despite internal rebellions.

You can't help but laugh at the Ottomans and the Hapsburgs, who spent centuries on end fighting each other, only to lose both their empires whilst fighting side by side.
And they become ally on 1.WW
And Hungary was their buffer zone for decades :/
Tragic
Correction, it's Habsburgs********
Basically like Britain and France.
Finally a continuation of Ottoman series! I feared this series has been canceled, it's great you're back with it :)
I think they should remake some of the older videos from the Ottoman wars series, and also start it with the Battle of Maritsa river in 1371, since that battle essentially decided the fate of the Balkans and opened the way for the Ottomans to conquer large part of Europe. But yeah, I'm also glad the series continues
As did I but I’m glad that this series is back.
YESSIR
@@Maus_Indahaus On one hand you're right, but as Pole I'm obviously biased and want K&G to progress to the both battles of Khotyn, Wienna, Párkány etc. :D
@@macu679 Those will come, no worries about that one, but if you want to start from the beginning, you'll see that their earlier videos on Ottoman history are not on the same level as their current videos. BTW, there is a great video about Vienna and Khotin from a channel called Sand Rhoman history, or something like that. He's good, but not on the same level as Kings and Generals

As a Romanian native, I congratulate your work. It's a delight seeing in action battles I've only read in books. Great job.
I recommend the 5 episode epic on Michael the Brave from HistoryMarche as well. They went all out.
@@SaurianSavior already seen it
@علي ياسر Because united the three romanian principalities could emerge as a regional power that could coagulate all orthodox nations of Balkans and even more to Cossacks. And let's be fair, even in late middle ages, warriors of Balkans and Central Europe could be invincible if united under a single command.... So first Bulgarians had to be sacrificated, then Serbs and in the end Romanians....
@علي ياسر My friend ... The only agreements respected between romanian principalities the great power during ages, the only one's that were respected were the one's signed with the turks... Never the sultan asked for more tribute, our own cowards princeps ofered more for gaining suport for the throne against their own kin or brothers....
@@augustiniumihaila4466 😂😂you are lucky you are far away from Asia. You would have got demolished by the Persians, Arabs and the Mongols. Asia was the toughest continent.
Thanks for covering my country's history! This battle is also very important to us and our culture.
Same feeling here man...
K&G are the best to do it 💙
where are you from?
@@ohyeahyeah5873 must be Romania.
@@aaronpaul9188 yeah theirs is way better. It also seems like the maker of this video is being partial to the ottomans.
Finally a video series on Micheal the Brave my favorite person in Romanian history he came from a prince of a broke nation to ruling at all three Romanian principalities
Though the Sipahi were a problem for Ottoman stability, a bigger threat were the Janissaries.
The Janissary forces were already disgruntled with the Sultanate as far back as the waning years of Suleiman the Great's reign, when political intrigue led to the assassination of Suleiman's heir Sehadze Mustafa, by his father's bodyguards (who went full Emporer Aurelian on the poor kid), and the ascension of Selim II as crown prince. The underhanded manner in which Selim ascended made him look weak to Janissaries (and Mustafa was a proven leader), and led to tensions with Suleiman. Selim proved their suspicions, as he was an ineffectual hedonist who spent most of short reign in feasts and drinking parties with his cronies.
After Selim's death in 1574, the Janissary leaders briefly reconciled with new Sultan Murad III, an unmistakably pious man compared to his father. But Murad's reign was an unhappy and calamitous one. Anatolia had seen a population boom under Suleiman and Selim, but the 1580s brought severe drought to Anatolia, causing mass displacement of agricultural workers to major cities, saturating labor markets and reducing wages. And then while all of this was happening, Turkey and the rest of Europe were inundated with cheap, high quality Spanish silver from the mines at Potosi in Spanish Peru, causing the debased Ottoman silver coinage to lose value drastically due to inflation. Unable to earn fair wages, Ottoman laborers became increasingly restive. More importantly the Janissaries forced Murad III to become a virtual prisoner of the Tokapi Palace, where he stayed constantly to prevent a Janissary backed rival taking control of the state. Another looming problem were the Jelali, part time militiamen specializing in musketry and who were mercenaries for the Porte or its regional officials, and now couldn't earn wages as either civilians or soldiers.
Makes sense. The Janissaries were armed slaves, I don't get why the sultan would trust them.
Sipahiler(Spahije),Yeničeriler(Janjičari)!
@@theawesomeman9821
Because as former Slaves they had every reason to be thankfull to the sultanate from releasing them from slavery and now made them his prestigious guards showered in gold.
But also did not have the problem of belonging to a faction within the Ottoman world or court. Which is why Augustus had germanic bodyguards and the Varangians were a thing

As a Turkish person living in Bucharest I think Romania is one of the most important and brave nation in whole Eastern Europe and did some great fights and tried their best against such a giant dominant force like Ottoman. Respect.
What an epic battle this must have been. Michael the brave is a really well deserved earned title
He wasn't named Michael the Brave for nothing. The man was an absolute chad with huge balls. He was a descendent of the royal families of Moldova and Wallachia, also by his mother side he was related to the last roman family that ruled Constantinopole, the Cantacuzinos. Next episode will be how with his allies he overcomes the ottoman army at the bridge battle over the Danube, the battle of Giurgiu. It isnt mentioned in the video but when the wallachian army was pushing back the ottomans, Michael knew the advantage will be lost soon, so he did what Sinan Pasa did, he gathered his personal retinue and dived in the middle of the battle, cutting janissaries left and right. This acted as a morale boost for his soldiers as they pushed the ottomans even more.
He was a luckier version of Stephen the Great who had to struggle during the reign of Mehmed the Conqueror

@Sorin Soter
Aren't the Palaiologos family the last rulers of Constantinople, not the Kantakouzenos?
@@nenenindonu He wasn't as lucky was you say he was. Let's respect a man that accomplished so much in his life, we do not know his circumstances. But what I know for sure is that his legacy is that of a hero who protected his faith and country.
Michael the Brave had a remarkably disciplined army. Attacking a superior enemy and then tying to pull off that tactical retreat with most other armies of the period would have ended with the force disintegrating into a panicking mob but his guys pulled it off.
His army was made mainly of mercenaries from Serbia, Albania, Székely troops and a contingent o infantry from the Prince of Transilvania. He understood that a national army made of peasants could not cope with modern war of that time so he made his army of paid professionals. His main problem was the money to finance such an army. When the money dried out he was forced to abandon his enterprise and go to Viena to ask for help from Emperor Rudolf.

True
I do not agree with this because the Battle of Vaslui was avenged, but the Battle of Calugerani was not avenged, and there was even a greater defeat later.
@Nenenin Donu Vaslui was more damaging. The ottomans were younger, took more casualties, and could not take the losses as easily. Vaslui was more damaging than calugereni or giourgiu. Only the disaster at Ankara, and the 1683 siege of Vienna was more harmful to the Ottomans.
Ah yes finally the Ottoman wars series is back!
I've heard a lot about Michael the Brave. He was an exceptional battle winner. He was a very fun to hear about. Shame what happened to him. My compliments to all those who made this video a reality.
@Steffan Blanco---He was assassinated.
@Steffan Blanco he got axed by a former ally.
HistoryMarche has a 5 part series on him that’s worth a watch
My mother is Romanian she told me that there's a statue of him where she studied to be a doctor
@@darthveatay---Now that is nice. I wouldn't mind seeing that statue myself one day.
@@danielboggan2479---I saw that series. It was a good one.
YES!! Thank you I'm Romanian and we have so many fascinating battles, especially against the Ottomans, please do more!!
The Ottomans are back!
*drops everything to watch*
My favourite series. Thank you Kings and Generals.
For anyone else interested on the romanian side of things HistoryMarche's channel has a brilliant and very detailed series on Michael of Wallachia. Very recommended.
Romanians had great leaders in the middle ages: Stephen the Great, Vlad the Impaler, Iancu de Hunedoara, Mihai the brave, Mircea the elder
Iancu was not a Romanian leader. He was a Hungarian leader of Romanian origins.
Michael the Brave really deserved his name. Retreating at the right moment just to preserve the lives of his soldiers proves he wasn't only brave, he was smart and respectful of his unit too.
That cannon situation was funny though, didn't know it happened 😁
When "little war in Hungary" lasts for 22 years while "long Turkish war" lasts 13 years. WUT
lol because turks like to blitzkrieg mostly. long wars cost a lot for such mobilized armies.
You missed the sexual innuendo,
intended by the person who named them.

When I realized Michael the Brave was going to show up, I got so excited and felt well researched. Then to actually see him and watch him do his thing, remarkable. I do wonder if the troops that pursued Michaels army after the feigned retreat, did so because he did cause a great deal of atrocities against the Ottomans. Their hate for him was probably so strong, since the call to war against him raised such a large army.
The Ottomans did terrible things to Europe. They basically created Vlad the impaler.
@@ragnarlothbrok4281 Vlad fought for he's country

FINALLY. We need more videos about romania and its leaders: Stephan the Great, Vlad the Impaler, Mihai the Brave, Mircea the Elder, Iancu de Hunedoara etc.
Or the war of independence
@@gigikontra7023 Romania did not fight for independence. They took advantage of the Turkish-Russian war
@@futboltime12 again you? The "Hungarian history" books don't mention that it was the Czar himself that requested help from the Romanian army? The guy got into big trouble south of Danube.
@@futboltime12 similar to how Hungarians took advantage of Romanian stupidity to dominate and discriminate Romanians for some hundreds of years.
Michael the Brave was really brave.
Not only him, but also all of his troops. I love bravery💙
That amazing expensive armor everyone saw on him on paintings... when he saw that his troops needed morale, he's take the damn thing off and charge in front of them. Hence how he got the nickname.
Love this channel!
More about Romanian history!
Big like!
17:17 They literally did not even touch the abandoned cannons, lol
"Sir, what about those cannons?"
"We deal with them later. Our janissaries will mop the floor with the enemy troops. Let's rejoice in our victory!"
--- Hours later ---
"Sir, the enemy is advancing!"
"What?"
"They're back, pursuing our janissaries!"
"WHAT?"
"And... and they're manning their cannons we didn't touch!"
"WHAAAT?!?"
I actually love this series on the Long Turkish War, because one of the combatants in the war was an Englishman by the name of John Smith, and a few years later, he would go on to play a role in helping to establish the Jamestown Colony, in Virginia.
Where he and a certain Wesson became buddies 😁😁
I think you should remake some of the older videos from the Ottoman wars series, and also start it with the Battle of Maritsa river in 1371, since that battle essentially decided the fate of the Balkans and opened the way for the Ottomans to conquer large part of Europe.
As Romanian I really appreciate this
Excellent video, I am truly thankful that you offer such great content for free. My only complaint is that you should have mentioned the fact that the majority of the orthodox rebels were Serbian, and that Koca Sinan Pasha organised the Burning of Saint Sava's relics in Belgrade as revenge. As Saint Sava is the most venerated Serbian saint, this event is seen as very important in Serbian history.
Also, it worth mentioning Baba Novac, which was a captain in Michael army, a big, bad serbian who fought until his death at 80 years against turks.
@@bogdan3907 Yeah, but I don't think they covered the parts of the war where he played a more significant role. If they do mention him, it will probably happen in one of the later videos in the series
Gotta respect the Ottoman war machine, taking casualties that would cause other armies to crumble but they didn't hear no bell.
Just wait till you find out that the Russians kick their ass so hard they never recovered
@Ahmet Sakızcı more than the russians themselves?

Glad to see the Ottoman series back! Every video from you (and W&W) is a knockout hit. Keep up the quality work!
Wow so nice, I am watching this channel for more than two years and I wanted to see some battles where my country Romania was involved because we had some very good military leaders in the past (like Butebista,Decebalus, Stephen the great ,Michael the brave and Antonescu) and now I had that moment and I was screaming of excitement 😜😜😜😁
Antonescunu nu a prea realizat nimic important ca si om militar, nu a castigat nicio victorie importanta
Ottoman series involving their conflicts with other neighboring Turcoman Dynasties such as the Ak Koyunlu and Afsharids would be great topics to cover
there are videos about that
@@BartmanGS Theres not a single K&G production neither about Afsharids nor the Ak Koyunlu both were only briefly mentioned in unrelated war videos

Been waiting for this, thanks guys.
Awesome video! Your presentations on the Ottoman Empire are uniformly superb.💪⚔
what an amazing video and covering a part of history alot of people dont know much about. cant wait for the next video on the long Turkish war
Another subject I didn't know barely anything about I just knew it happened. I like learning new things 👍🏻 thanks for sharing this with us.
Finalllyyyy!!! Have been waitin sooooooo looong for new Ottomas series.
definitely excited to see this series continue, I've been waiting a long time to see you cover the war between the ottomans and Mihail the Brave, who is definitely one of the most interesting characters in Romanian, if not world history. Awesome work!

I finished the channel's other Ottoman playlist a while ago and thought I saw it all then this video popped up :)
Love how your doing on these videos.....hope you can soon finish the Napoleonic wars soon.

amazing video. Thanks.
Loved this, thanks
I love the comment section in this channels videos. You dont see Nationalistic arguing back and forth. Just lovers of history
Indeed my friend. These guys gave everything for their country and for that we should always remember and appreciate them regardless in what camp they fought.
Excellent, waiting for next one
Very good video !!
Finally you guys again give credits to those who knew they had no chances but they stood up to all challenges.
