Thanks, Montenegro was there way before 1800s and pretty much remained free and autonomous for the entire time (fell in 1499 as the last standing and immediately formed its self again as prince-bishopric in 1516.

The Balkans is like my family You don't know who is gonna start it You don't know when it's gonna happen You don't know how it will start All you know is that there will be a major fight and nothing will stop it
Yes for what for example I think independence good think but if the Balkans United under equal command again more successful then single poor countries
@@MeinungMann not true? Search it by yourself. And of course I prefer to be independent, but Russians started to sack the two principalities way before
Zomz Cheezy Russia invaded Romanian-Speaking teritories 12 times ! Just think ! 12 TIMES !!!! And still, we ( the romanians ) are the bad guys, because we invaded the russians one time ( In 1941 at Barbarossa ) to get our rightful land and to not get anihilated by the germans !
Victorbrine As a romanian I know very well this facts ! And btw, why do you think its rightfull land of Hungary ? Because our Monarchs didn't attacked Hungary because we are not a people of invaders, even if the people from our teritories are tortured ? We have a lots of land like Timoc and N. Bukovina and still we don't get them back just because we are a peaceful country !
Martin Madarász You don't have autonomy, and ? We give hungarians the equal rights as the romanians: They buy food with the same price, they speak their own language, they have different and probably more good schools than us, they can have the same jobs and they can even be politicians in Romania ! I don't hear to often about a Romanian Minister in the Hungarian Goverment, nor a Romanian Political Party ! We also have some Romanians in Debrecen !
@Zomz Cheezy It's just a clip wich shows maps, colors and some years, if one judges only by this, it means that he doesnt have education. Romania had a king, Charles the 1st, he allied with russian Tsar, he started investing in infrastructure, building railroads and fortresses, preparing the country for independence long before war, russians also were allowed to build railroads along the Danube. During Russo-Turkish war Romania did participated an spilled blood on bulgarian soil helping russians and bulgarians. There's even one particular incident wich shows that romanian army didnt played a small role in that war, when russian army was sorrounded by turks facingannihilation the russian command sent a fast telegram to romanian military high command to intervene and help them. Later the soviets when they come in Romania they tried to find the telegram and destroy it but they couldnt. :))) And offcourse they "poured" in Romania, it was the first ottoman province on their border, DOOOH.

@@ufc377 because russia was provoking all revolts in the balkan to distract turkeys army power from the wars between them that were happening at that time
Cuz of 5 centuries of occupation , slavery , kids being taken away and systematic destruction of cultures . That's why revolts were happening . In 19th century French wanted to convert orthodox into catholic churches while Russia wanted to regain Constantinople and preserve orthodoxy in the Balkans which led to Crimean war that Russia lost , but thanks to them it's (Balkans) still orthodox . I know that Rome (which robbed Jerusalem and Constantinople) and turks are eager to co-op against orthodox , but as we know that orthodox peoples caused genocidal empires (Prussia , Austro-Hungaria , Ottoman etc.) to colapse , that's one huge mistake ...

@@ermaltahiraj6438 no, not really. In fact, the intervention of Great Powers, notably the UK and France, is the reason why the Ottoman Empire stayed alive for longer than it should have. Take a look at the Crimean War, the most shining example of this.The British and French declared outright war against Russia in defense of the Ottoman Empire, as the latter couldn’t defend themselves against the Russians.
Δημο γεροντας Why would they they declared independence on different dates. These kind of collective celebrations usually happen at the end of world wars when the war is over for everyone.
@Trabzon duzkoy turkey want to be in eu and they can't because you have no democracy and support is and that shit but ok we are the evil. Turkey invades in syria, the west is the problem how ironic.
This is why the names First and Second uprisings should not be used. Karadjordjev Rat I Miloseva Buna should be used. They most certainly weren’t the first and second uprising against the Turks
You believe the propaganda? The rebels of Tanzania single handedly gained independence with no support and you think the Cubans helped? My god you listen to there lies!
You people CLEARLY haven't heard of the Empire of Suriname, they held Luxembourg, Algeria, Chad, and Thailand at the same time. An absolute powerhouse of its age! If only the stupid Danish hadn't ruined it.
I know that technically Crete is not in the Balkan peninsula (in the strict geographic sense) but it should have been included since it was the stage of numerous revolts. Other than this omission and a couple very minor errors this video is excellent.

From all the ottoman empire history the only great monument known is Santa Sofia that's made by the byzantine. The ottoman empire is only a cancer that hasn't brought anything relevant to the mankind.
Fun Fact: The Greeks invited the Brazilian Emperor Dom Pedro I to be the king of Greece, but he declined because he was fighting many rebellions in Brazil. Dom Pedro refused rule Bolivia and Spain too, he loses the Uruguay but won a civil war to the Portuguese Crown as Pedro IV and died at 34.
@@dari1510 The Ottomans controlled the Bosporus and Dardanelles straits. Those narrow water ways are surrounded by land, and thus; surrounded by artillery. Moving ships through there while its under Ottoman control would be asking to have your Navy wiped out. It makes strategic sense that Russia would try to take control of the surrounding land of the straits, allowing ships to pass through unhindered. Russia had naval dominance over the Ottomans eventually, but passing through the straights was still very dangerous without controlling them, so Russia attempted to take them but they withdrew.
Stfu mate. The Montenegrins advanced a kilometer, then Serbia Bulgaria, and Greece joined in and won, what is up with Montenegro, they didn’t do shit, they were the ones who started
Yes, because in that Makedonia region have lived Bulgarians, long before even the Ottoman empire comes. That was far more important for Bulgaria - to unite its own people
The notable book “The Greek Revolution: 1821 and the Making of Modern Europe” (Penguin Press, 2021), by prominent British Historian Mark Mazower, is one of the best accounts over the legendary Greek War of Independence.
Yeah " Turkey invades Balkan" is science fiction news man.You cannot fight the Kurds, people without weapons, (well until now that Trump is going to give them heheh) you think you will ever invade countries with proper armies?As for the killing in the Ottoman Empire read some more...
The uprising in wallachia in 1821 was part of the greek war of independence ; it was organized by the "friendly company" (filike etaireia) and its goal was to kickstart the revolution (being in contact with the revolutionaries in the peloponnese) . Its leader was Alexandros Ypsilantes , a greek national , who in cooperation with the local (greek and non-greek) population and Greek volunteer troops from western Europe , declared independence from the ottomans . They numbered in the tens of thousands , half of them were greeks and everyone fought for a common cause . However , many locals decided to abandon the campaign since the russians refused to take part in the war and the ottomans threatened to retaliate against the civilians if the regiment wasn't disbanded . Adding to that , Vladimireskou was found a traitor and was executed by the "friendly company" (filike etaireia).
@Christos Christermi Vladimirescu wasn't a traitor, the rulling geeks were even shittier than the ottomans were. He managed to change the mind of the Ottomans so from there on they started again to put romanian rulers both in Wallachia and Moldova, like it has always been.
Actually, Ypsilantis betrayed Vladmirescu since he wanted to be the only leader.Shortly after, Vladimirescu s army dispersed and Ypsilantis was left alone so he lost.Talk about karma.
So basically Greek vezir uprose the greek population in Walachia in an attempt to restore the old Byzantine borders. That's pretty scamy, but also honestly really based.
Because Macedonia was Always Albanian .You see those "ottoman territories" that was left in 1912 between the first balkan war they was all Albanian from Macedonia to Kosova and to Adriatic sea ,Mother Theresa was born in Scopje
I like how they teach us at primary school that "We ruled Balkans with peace, it's just darned *Nationalism* provoked them! _uh and we may tax them because they're Christian , pillaged and maybe took their children and able-men for slavery_ " also man Wallachia, everybody loves Wallachia so much.

The Albanian revolt was led by Dervish Cara, an Albanian Muslim, it was very succesful and could have led to a autonomous Albanian state in the half of the 19th century, but we were betrayed by our fellow Albanians. The Catholics of Mirdita led by Bibë Doda sided with the Ottomans crushed the revolt of Albanian Muslims. But yet (Albanian) Catholics nowadays claim that they are the most patriots in the Albanian nation which is totally untrue.
You know, we Albanians always fight eachother, it's sad. Even in the time of Skanderbeg there was much betrayal. It seems like Albanians can only achieve good things in other countries. They become Pasha's and Grand viziers in Turkey. Sheikh Al-Albani was a very respected scholar in Syria, Giorgio Basta, an amazing general who fought for the Holy Roman Empire. Redbeard the famous pirate was Albanian. Byeazid the Second, the Ottoman Sultan, was also of Albanian decent, his mother was Albanian (prolly forced to marry Sultan Mehmet). Ataturk had an Albanian father, Muhammed Ali Pasha, the King of Egypt was Albanian, He declared war on the Ottoman empire and did you know he would've taken Constantinople if it wasn't for Great-Brittain. When will Albanians finally do something good for Albania, all we have now is asshole politicians who want to fill their pockets....

A reocuring theme in the Liberation of the Balkans is the fact that nearly every side was ravaged by internal conflict, and often one side would have been aided by the Ottomans.
"If you don't know history, you're doomed to repeat it." Seems like half the continent of Europe hasn't learned the lesson from the Ottoman invasions into Europe.
17:35 Romania not only allowed Russian army passage, but provided artillery coverage for the Russian troops during Danube crossing, then - at the request of Russians - joined the war and - with Russians - crushed the Ottoman resistance at Pleven, then attacked Vidin with the help of Vlach (Romanian) volunteers living in Timok and Vidin area, freeing up Russian units which could head South deep in Ottoman controlled territory.

17:10 Bulgaria's Border to Turkey is simply wrong. They never controlled a part of the coast line of the Marmara Sea after the Treaty of London, see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treaty_of_London_(1913)#/media/File:Balkan_Wars_Boundaries.jpg, you can clearly see that they don't have a border on the coast.
Nu, pentru ca romanii erau vai de pula lor, jefuiti si omorati constant in cadrul razboaielor ruso -otomane care aveau loc aproape anual intre 1711-1877.

This actually helped me on my historical project of the Early Modern Balkans and the Origins of their strange looking borders which are mostly alongside Cultural/Natural borders. Thanks mate!!! you got me a A+!!!
You forgot the Malësore uprising of 1911 and the Albanian rebellion of 1912. Growing albanian influence in the ottoman empire is one of the biggest reasons the balkan wars started, as serbia and greece wanted to limit future albanian influence
For Albania you forgot the League of Prizren (1878), Second League of Prizren (1901), Revolt of 1907, Kosovo Uprising (1909), Malësor Uprising (1910), General Albanian Uprising (1911-1912)
The Ilinden was indeed the biggest uprising of IMRO, however there were a ton of others as well before 1903 (Tikveš, Ohrid, Debar etc.) which weren't necessarily against the Turks. Great video btw.
A participação do exército da Rússia foi fundamental para a libertação de vários países europeus do Império otomano, como a Grécia, Bulgária, Romania e Estados eslavos dos Balcãs, depois os exércitos do Império Austro-Húngaro.

@In brightest day, in blackest night Macedonian were part of Bulgarian ethnicity just like Thracians (Bulgarians who live in Thrace), Dobrudzheans (Bulgarian who live in Dobrudzhea), Shopi (Bulgarians in western Bulgaria, Shopluk). Stalin, Tito, Dimitrov and the communist international wanted so separate Macedonian from Bulgaria and they gave it to Yugoslavia where the Bulgarian population was forced to change their nationality and everyone who refused to do that were sent to prisons or killed(executed).
It should have included Crete too, the Cretan are Greek too and their heroic revolts played a big role and are a part of balkan history Overall when it comes to Greek history you didn't mention the Orlov revolt ( a major event for the balkan history overall, along with it's aftermath ) the Cretan revolution 1841 ( it was the third one for Crete, first one was part of the Orlov revolt and the second one was a part of the war of independence ) the Greek Macedonian revolt of 1854 (altho you did mention the Epirus revolt that happent the same year) the Cretan revolt of 1858 the Cretan revolt of 1866-1869 (major event) the Greem Macedonia revolt of 1867 the Cretan revolt of 1878 the Greek macedonian revolt of 1878 ( you did mention the Epirus revolt of the same year and we can see the Greek Macedonian areas on the map, but no mention of Cretan revolt ) No mention of the Thessalian revolt and the battle of Mouzaki that included Greek army troops No mention of the Cretan revolts of 1885 and 1888 No mention of the Cretan and Greek Macedonian of 1895 and 1896 that led to the 1897 Greco - turkish war No mention of the Macedonian Struggle ( 1904 - 1908+ ) As you can see Crete played a huge role in the balkans ps Small detail the Dodecanese should have turned into Italian collors after 1911 . ps 2 Theriso revolt was not against ottomans that's why i didn't mention it .
@Cagdas Ozkan Never said that, I was replying to your pal and his comment. You turks act tough, but when someone returns the favour, you play the victims.

If you don't like comments like mine, then tell your friends to stop doing them first.
@@the_kekromancer9779 And the Ottomans didn't even have a navy after WW1 so explain to me how they could win naval battles if there didn't occured any lol. I just don't like nationalistic comments like here Greeks and Turks should be friends not enemies.
I hope the balkan people can soon realize that we have much more in common than we have differences. It is time to stop arguing about the past and look forward to the future. We all have the same traditions and celebrate the same things. I am sure you know it because you were probably told this in school - Unity Makes Strength.
I think about this a lot. Imagine a union of the balkans similar to the EU. Then imagine entering the EU as this "Balkan League 2.0" Germany or France wouldnt be able to successfully flex their economic muscle against a combined Balkan economy. Also that crazy Islamist Erdogan wouldnt be posturing like he is in this timeline.
The main cause for the Great Bosnian Uprising was the growing autonomy of Serbia while Bosnia wasn't getting any. The transfer of 10 Bosnian nahija (regions) to Serbia was what finally tipped the water. Still a great video
Also the fact that he calls Bosnians "Muslim Serbs" is kinda a big fucking point - and a 100% inaccurate one, if not intentionally done to fuel the Serb nationalist view of history in the Balkans.
@@anordinaryboi9506 Serbia was a vassal state from 1389-1459, until Ottomans annexed the territory of Serbia (only then Serbia wasn't an independent country). Bayezid gave Serbia to be an independent state, but to fight by their side at the battles that would come ( like Nicopolis in 1396 and Ankara 1402), Lazar's daughter was a wife of Bayezid. When Serbs decided not be their allies anymore, the Ottomans invaded the capital of Smederevo in 1459. In 1835, there are no more Ottoman soldiers in the Serbian lands, and no more Serbs were taken into jannisaries and Serbia forms its own government. Serbian fortresses were still under the control of the Ottomans, until 1867. Serbia was officially an independent state just after the threaty of Berlin in 1878. But, you know, our state day is at February 1835, because we formed a government. In the terms of law, when you have a government you can be declared as an independent country.
Greeks were the smartest. We forged Great Britain to recognize us as an independent state, we took more land and we survived at Balkans surrounded by enemies.
@Caravanserai of Life well its a winning tactic, why would they rebel at the time when you were strong, instead of waiting for the weak moment of enemy?
Caravanserai of Life it is obvious you have never read the art of war. Why strike when your enemy is at his strongest? Instead you should wait till he is at his most vulnerable. Isn’t that what you Turks did to us 1453?
Turks crying about how they did nothing wrong and the balkans were "peaceful" during their rule after occupying the balkans for around 500 years and causing most if not all of its ethnic tensions due to displacing
Romania (Wallachia, Moldavia, Transylvania) was not part of the Russian Empire, they were allys. The Russian Empire helped the Romanians fight the muslim Ottomans, when it was convenient for them. The Romanians did most of the fighting, always asking their Christian neighbors for help (the Russian and Austro-Hungarian Empires).
@@omerfarukvural692 No because we smart XD With only a few thousands we fucked Serbia and half of Byzantium and defeated the Arabs at Constantinople before they can flood Europe.
In one battle (battle of Albulena), 8,000 Albanians faced 80,000 Ottomans and it was an Albanian victory with 30,000 Ottomans killed. Albanians are the top resisters!
Bulgaria gained an independence from the Otthomans on 3rd of March 1878, not on 22nd of September. The events in making Bulgaria kingdom were because of Russia and her influence here.
Oooh but they didn't get İstanbul. I can't believe that you really think that they almost got Istanbul. They came close cuz all of the ottoman troups were in arabian territorys cuz they fought on several fronts. After the soldiers came back, they pushed them back again
They basically occupied Constantinople and there are photos of the British and French troops marching through the city. But inexplicably the Westerners decided to let the Turks rule the city instead of giving it to the Greeks as they should have been done. That shows you that the ideology that really dominates the West is Satanic Zionism rather than Christianity because they prefered to give Jerusalem to the Jews rather than Constantinople to the Greeks. They should have given both.
@@alejandrosotomartin9720 wtf dude. It was a short-lived occupation and during the turkish war of liberation it would be retaken with force but the allies retreated diplomatically.

PRAVI ISTORIČAR Clearly you don’t understand english, which proves how bad the Slavic schools are. I said in the balkan territory, and it covered Kosovo, and it STARTED in Kosovo. It really just proves how clueless you are about history, yet you decide to spit out very dumb opinions.
PRAVI ISTORIČAR It was an uprising, they demanded independence from the Ottomans, but the Ottomans refused. All the territory gained there were owned by the ethnic Albanians that has always been there. If you look at a map today, a map of which ethnic group lives in Kosovo, you can see the entire territory is Inhabited by Albanians, and in the same amount of territory that the Vilayet included. Also, after the rebellion was put down, negotiations were introduced with the Ottomans on September 1912 for the Albanian Vilayet to declare independence, yet you and your slavic friends decided to have the first balkan war. It shows how greedy you all are. When Albania declared independence most of its population found itself outside it’s borders, including my great great grandfather who was in modern day borders Macedonia, which was all inhabited by Albanians.
Exactly, it formed a prince-bishopric way back in 1516 and remained free and autonomous for the almost the entire time -> en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_the_Ottoman_Empire
It was independent because the Ottomans wanted a buffer zone between the Adriatic and the Empire. If the Ottomans really wanted they would've crushed Montenegro out of existence, like pretty much every other country in Europe (except for Russia and Great Britain). And also: Montenegro had to pay a huge tribute every year to the Ottomans until the 18th century to not get invaded.
@@DobriBosnjanin1832 Trust me they tried to crush us but they got slapped each time they tried it. It angered the Sultan so much that he had to get soldiers from Algeria, Tunesia and Morocco because they were known not to run away. Even so they were unsuccesfull. I think they gave up because they were loosing too many men just to capture couple of mountains and to conquer couple of tribes. Montenegro was like Avghanistan for them, eventualy achieving nothing they gave up and left.
@@dinaridwolf9894 Bosnia is as mountainous as Montenegro, but it's even worse; it was larger. There's even a "flat" area next to the sea (Herceg Novi for example), so why would they conquer Bosnia but not Montenegro? Trust me, like I said, if the Ottomans really wanted to conquer Montenegro (and even other important coastal cities like Dubrovnik/Ragusa), they could have. They conquered Constantinople that had so many walls, they conquered cities like Baghdad that had so many soldiers protecting it, they conquered the Mamluks in 1 year, and you really think that Montenegro wouldn't have been crushed if they sent a full army? Brate, even though I'm Muslim (a Bosniak) I also didn't really want the Ottomans here in the Balkans, so don't think I'm supporting them. It's just facts.

Bukovina and still we don't get them back just because we are a peaceful country !

@Zomz Cheezy It's just a clip wich shows maps, colors and some years, if one judges only by this, it means that he doesnt have education. Romania had a king, Charles the 1st, he allied with russian Tsar, he started investing in infrastructure, building railroads and fortresses, preparing the country for independence long before war, russians also were allowed to build railroads along the Danube. During Russo-Turkish war Romania did participated an spilled blood on bulgarian soil helping russians and bulgarians. There's even one particular incident wich shows that romanian army didnt played a small role in that war, when russian army was sorrounded by turks facingannihilation the russian command sent a fast telegram to romanian military high command to intervene and help them.

The uprising in wallachia in 1821 was part of the greek war of independence ; it was organized by the "friendly company" (filike etaireia) and its goal was to kickstart the revolution (being in contact with the revolutionaries in the peloponnese) . Its leader was Alexandros Ypsilantes , a greek national , who in cooperation with the local (greek and non-greek) population and Greek volunteer troops from western Europe , declared independence from the ottomans . They numbered in the tens of thousands , half of them were greeks and everyone fought for a common cause . However , many locals decided to abandon the campaign since the russians refused to take part in the war and the ottomans threatened to retaliate against the civilians if the regiment wasn't disbanded . Adding to that , Vladimireskou was found a traitor and was executed by the "friendly company" (filike etaireia).
@Christos Christermi Vladimirescu wasn't a traitor, the rulling geeks were even shittier than the ottomans were. He managed to change the mind of the Ottomans so from there on they started again to put romanian rulers both in Wallachia and Moldova, like it has always been.
Actually, Ypsilantis betrayed Vladmirescu since he wanted to be the only leader.Shortly after, Vladimirescu s army dispersed and Ypsilantis was left alone so he lost.Talk about karma.

But yet (Albanian) Catholics nowadays claim that they are the most patriots in the Albanian nation which is totally untrue.
You know, we Albanians always fight eachother, it's sad. Even in the time of Skanderbeg there was much betrayal. It seems like Albanians can only achieve good things in other countries.

A reocuring theme in the Liberation of the Balkans is the fact that nearly every side was ravaged by internal conflict, and often one side would have been aided by the Ottomans.

I read, Montenegro was the first land in Balkan, which got the indepence out of Osman Empire long before uprisings of XIX century.
Exactly, it formed a prince-bishopric way back in 1516 and remained free and autonomous for the almost the entire time -> en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_the_Ottoman_Empire
It was independent because the Ottomans wanted a buffer zone between the Adriatic and the Empire. If the Ottomans really wanted they would've crushed Montenegro out of existence, like pretty much every other country in Europe (except for Russia and Great Britain). And also: Montenegro had to pay a huge tribute every year to the Ottomans until the 18th century to not get invaded.
