The seemingly unstoppable Turks were at the height of their powers; they inflicted a massive defeat on the combined imperial armies at the Battle of Mohacs in Hungary and overran the country in 1526. A'Barrow, S. (2015). Death of a nation: A new history of Germany. Book Guild Publishing. P.96
The biggest reason for defeat of the Hungarians was because of their retreat in that terrible organization. If they stayed fighting until the night and then retreat as soon as the battle stops the outcome would have been much better than what happened
Thank you once again for this impressive knowledge of history and an amazing graphical video much appreciated and I hope to see more like this in the future
The Ottoman empire of the first half of the 16th century was an absolute juggernaut destroying the Mamluk Sultanate and Hungary, wrecking an enormous Holy League at Preveza, and trashing the Safavids at Chaldiran
@Milošević in hell lol what a cope Suleiman's campaign in Vienna was a mere give a try rather than an organized siege like the second one, and losing naval wars against the Portuguese in raging waters like the Indian Ocean is nothing to be ashamed of
Yes, Sulieman didn't get defeated like the second siege of Vienna, he just have to withdraw due to the intense logistic problem, but the Indian Ocean war was indeed a significant failure, it blocked the opportunity for Ottomans to exert further influence on Asia, even in this case, the whole Southeast Asia has become Islamic under the influence of Ottomans, just imagine what if they are not stoped by the Portuguese. But this was more on the strategic level and the negative effects can only be reflected in a century or two, at that time, it seems just a minor tactical setback. So it's right to say that Ottomans were a juggernaut in the 15 16th century.😉
They destroyed some beautiful kingdoms and cities on their path. I wish if we can see how would they look like today without turkish influence in those few centuries
The Battle of Mohacs is Suleiman's first and last face-to-face battle . Because after this war no one dared to appear in front of him again.The battle of Mohacs lasted only two hours. Ottoman war machine is perfect.
By what I have read, pointing at an end point of the battle is hard, though many considered that they may have maybe fought for atleast 2 or 3 hours, looking at circumstances. It may have either ended late or earlier
To be fair bro, the Ottoman Empire military result, regarding the vast ressources at its disposition, only achieved what it achieved due to the lack of unity of European nations. It’s be interesting to compare the wealth population etc of Hungary and Ottoman Empire before this battle. And quite telling
I heard that when The Ottoman Sultan saw how young the Hungarian King was he lamented how young he was and expressed regret at him not experience a full life. Great video.
Strong rulers rule, and weak ones refer to commitee. Seems he was reluctant to join the battle, and reluctant to win. Good leaders have vision and act on thier plans. Seems like he wanted to rule by commitee. After he died is seems like his commitee was not a good one.
In most turkic battles, seljucks, ottomans etc. involved, there is a main theme of faint retreat. It can be seen in most prominent battles...From mankizert to mohacs... They used feint retreat, to distrupt or to lessen the impact of heavy cavalry charge, to distrupt advancing lines so that gaps would occur where cavalry would infiltrate, flank or wear down and guide the main enemy force to a distinctively selected area. In this case, Hungarian main cavalry was guided to kill zone of artillery, arrow and Janissary muskets. Ottoman historical records mention like this, how ever most western sources recorded these as initial Hungarian successes. Actually this really shows how disciplined ottoman army was and how well did the job that under heavy pressure. The trick of the feint retreat is not to let enemy realize that the retreat is feint. It is exceptionally difficult to do it. Hannibal could do it Cannae with great success. To this day, Hungarians thought that they had the upper hand. However, any one gone through Ottoman archives and investigate the battles, they could see how ottomans excelled this art of battle. Ottomans for years, one after another decisively crushed Christians armies. If you listened these channels, ottomans won these battles at the last round, mostly by luck, superior numbers, a betrayal of some of subordinates, or arrogance of some faction. It always stated the initial successes of christian armies. However, whatever the reason mentioned, in the end of most of these battles Ottomans mostly annihilate the opposing forces, killing major commanders, even kings, staying owning the battlefield. This can only be achieved if the enemy is encircled. Ottomans in most major battles could achieve this.
The Moghuls in India did something similar. One of their flanks would do a controlled retreat and when the bulk of the opposing army shifted the flank on the other side would go around and encircle the opposing army.

Fun fact: I was in school in the good ol' 80's and when it came to learn about our loss at Mohács, we were told that Tomori charged (so far okay) in the center (apparently not) with the infantry (he definitely did not lead them, according to the video) and the Ottomans feigned retreat leading him and his troops in front of their cannons. Now, at 46, I have to face the fact that we actually charged at the cannons without any trickery from the Turks. Noice. It's an interesting feeling learning how you knew something fundamental wrong for almost 4 decades...
I read in a book about Hungarian cavalry overall, that the initial cavalry charge itself was devastating for Turkish infantry, but after they turned around for round 2, the infantry chained the cannons together, making an obvious obstacle for the horses. And standing horsemen are much more easier targets.
There is a war tactic used by the Turks throughout history. 'Turan tactic' or 'Wolf trap'. The vanguards stage a mock attack and retreat. Seeing this, the leaders attack with their entire army, but the real army has already passed behind them. Mohaç is the best war in which the Turks used this tactic. It would be unfair to both the Hungarians and the Turks to say that the Hungarian cavalry, which was the best in Europe at that time, attacked the cannons. I advise you not to reference only western sources in your sources.
I found like three depictions of the battle so far, and I think ultimately we will never really know the absolute truth, battles were very chaotic things, in this ibstance most of the Hungarian high command died also, so it's not like they were able to leave behind their take of the events.
@@transylvanian8437 no. Cannons cant stop direct cavalry attack. So ottoman armys design is abnormal in this war. Their design is 3 line. First line retreat than second and last line is cannons and rifles. And first and second line didnt only retreat they spread flanks. And some of ottoman armys in ambush they attackd from back. Than hungarians escaped. However there was only 1 way -swamp-.
Maybe historical sources about the battle were not quite clear. In such case historians may prepare several descriptions of the battle depending on their interpretations and guessings. Moreover descriprion of famous battles tha is presented at schools are always simplified. Additionaly I think historymarche sometimes uses translations o battle descriptions from Polish historians (because is easier to translate from Polish than from Hungarian - because some names are pronounced in Polish manner).
@@HannibalBarcaRTW Well but his point still stands, European history is interconnected so you at least learn a few tidbits basics here and there. But Americans obviously focus on other topics
@@ArdaSReal yeah the entire state become corrupt and filled to brim with islamist orders which basically rotted the state from within. Then when the kaffir came it was easy pickings.
Except for a period of about 40-60 years between 1420s and 1490s, when governer of Hungary, voievode of Transylvania and ban of Timis and Caras, John Hunyadi managed to beat them so heavily, that Mehmed the 2nd almost comitted suicide after the battle of Belgrade, where he had suffered a devastating blow. Later on, John's second son, Matthias Corvin, managed to also stand in the ottoman's path with his strong black hungarian army.
I have a recommendation for upcoming videos. They would be perfect when you would show us how the soldiers looked like (like in your thumbnails). It's sometimes hard to imagine it with just the name of the troops. When you speak about Teutonic Knights for example then show a picture how they looked like for a few seconds. Other than that your videos are amazing.
The great Sultan, after the dawn prayer, gave a powerful sermon to the army. Among what he said, Paradise is before you: if you are martyred, and if you kill your enemy, he will be in Hell Be steadfast and victory will be yours..
I always get goosebumps and excited when I hear the khutbahs before war, but these western youtubers seldom mention them. Which is why I prefer watching these in Arabic. The adrenaline surge and pride I feel watching them is unmatched. Something I can never feel in these vids. Still, it was informative.

The Kingdom of Hungary was the second largest empire ever conquered by the Ottomans with the first place belonging to the Mamluk Sultanate which was pulverized by Suleiman's father Selim the Grim
@@rotciv1492Interesting that the Portuguese inadvertently ended up helping out the Ottomans. Considering that Portugal and the Ottomans also had their own power struggle going on in the Horn of Africa and the Indian Ocean.
THE TURKS AND THE WEST. Europe stood in awe of the Ottomans who crushed many states and conquered vast territories, going, as all patriotic Turks will proudly point out, "all the way to the gates of Vienna." European literature is replete with the depictions of the Turk as the hated enemy. The English often thought of the Turk as awe-inspiring and destructive. Thomas Fuller wrote in The Holy Warre (1639): "The Turkish Empire is the greatest... the sun ever saw. ...Grass springeth not where the grand signior's horse setteth his foot." Halman, T. and Warner, J., 2007. Rapture and revolution. Syracuse, NY: Syracuse University Press, Crescent Hill Publications, p.9. During the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries , understanding the Turks ' military organization , given the credit for the greatest empire since antiquity , became a major European preoccupation . Speake, J., n.d. Literature of travel and exploration. p.891. By the middle of the 16th century, the Turks arguably possessed the greatest empire in the world. A History of the Middle East Paperback - March 15, 2006 by Saul S.

This page always uses the same style when describing the wars won by the Turks. He explains it as if the Turks could not have won without the internal conflicts of the side they were fighting against, but they won because they could not be united. The truth of the matter is that Turkish armies were the most overwhelming power in the world at that time. For example, there are LoL games that last longer than the Battle of Mohács that he describes. Note: I used translate because I don't know English, I hope it translated correctly.

At the height of the battle, a squad of Hungerian special Knights sworn to kill Suleiman managed to breach into Jannisaries defending the Sultan. But at the end all of them were killed, 3 of which by Suleiman himself 💀 He was also wounded badly ☠️

I was hoping you would make this video!!! I am going to share it with my students this spring when I teach my history of the Middle East class. I mention the battle, but don't have time in a survey course to go into this detail.
That's awesome. Hope it they will find it a fantastic presentation as we all do now. I tend to like HM's way of asking the more critical questions about why certain leaders/groups make a decision before a significant event/battle throughout his videos. Or the cause that created a chain of events leading to a battle/war. Hence, why did the Hungarians not want to group up to combine forces? Or understanding each side's motivation for not taking the best course of action for more significant results. Really helps to start up a research paper or project for a particular topic
Absolutely no. There were a Serbian refugee uprising against the Hungarians, this led to their fall. After this battle the Hun kingdom still had enough power to stop the ottomans, but there were no just Ottomans.
Why is it anytime a muslim power wins the documentary goes into mourning mode, complete with sad music and some statements about how this lead to further conflict, or other tragic things?
Suleiman the Magnificent was the most powerful Ottoman Sultan and the greatest emperor of his time. He ruled the Ottoman Empire for 46 years and lived the golden age. He make his grand viziers equal to Charles V and any other European king in the Treaty of Constantinople of 1533 and the Treaty of Adrianople 1547. Charles V was scared of him. He had 26 Victories= •Siege of Sabac1521 •Siege of Belgrad1521 •Siege of Rodos1522 •Battle of Mohacs1526 •Battle of Beçne1526 •Siege of Osijek1526 •Siege of Buda1529 •Siege of Esztergom1529 •Siege of Siklos1532 •Siege of Graz1532 •Siege of Köszeg1532 •Siege of Baghdad1534 •Siege of Tabriz1535 •Siege of Suceava1538 •Siege of Buda1541 •Siege of Valpo1543 •Siege of Pecs1543 •Siege of Siklos1543 •Siege of Estergzom1543 •Siege of Tata1543 •Siege of Szekesfehervar1543 •Siege of Tabriz1548 •Siege of Van1548 •Siege of Yerevan1554 •Siege of Nakhichevan1554 •Siege of Szigetvar1566
It was one of the most consequential battles in entire Central and Eastern European history, which affected the future of many nations and conserved the gap between Western and Eastern Europe.
The Battle of Mohacs is one of my most favorite battles like of all time! Why? Not only because the Ottoman Empire was at its peak during this time but it also because this battle is the ultimate result of the French's defeat at the Battle of Pavia in the Italian Wars as well. And when that happened, it led to the Franco-Ottoman alliance, which led to the military operations such as the Battle of Mohacs. Speaking of Franco-Ottoman alliance, will this channel featured a video about it in the future? I hope so because such a content is so rare to find on TH-cam.
At its peak, but smaller than the Spanish lake, the Pacific Ocean, which is just one of the Spanish lakes. The Spanish Empire saved Europe from Islam. Spaniards contributed to the German defense at Vienna, but no one mentions the Spanish contribution because of anti-Spanish bias. I plan to learn Turkish, and like Turkey more than Gayreece because one of them is gay.

@@Kruppt808 I don't need your approval. You have no proof I'm a troll. That's just a bullpoop accusation. You commit not just an AD HOMINEM fallacy but also an argument from incredulity fallacy. You're not fit to judge.
The thing what is often not mentioned in the battle of Mohacs was the 100 000-150 000 strong jihad army above the Sultans 75 000-100 000 army, who is rampaging in the kingdom. This is why Louis the second act. They exterminate or enslave the civilians. Cities with 10 000-15 000 population perished entirely.
This is one of those battles that really changed world history as we know it today. AWESOME watch. How much royal blood was lost in hours? This is where Louie was killed for his hesitantly to have deployed his entire army were lost. As for the center who was abandoned. Paid for by the pope how many would not come to that banner? The lost in both subjects mentioned here as portrayed in this video. Still reverberate to present day Thank you the great the video!
The nobility at this time were such cowards, they’re first to claim responsibility for victories and first to flee the battlefield. I can’t believe they left their entire center exposed like that
sisin macar kırallarınız yane atalarınız biçok kes hezimete urattık bu sisin için büyük utanç verici kimse türklerin önünde duramaz duran kaybeder gerçek bu kabul edin
amazing ! the mobilization the hungarian army was an interesting insight comparing if the entire army could have linked up together . This is really well made
Not just Hungary, but also Bohemia. And in only 6 hrs, that even the Sultante himself didn't beilve it, and moved slowly in the new lands, then ran back after capturing the capital, thinking that there are hidden traps or armies.
The seemingly unstoppable Turks were at the height of their powers; they inflicted a massive defeat on the combined imperial armies at the Battle of Mohacs in Hungary and overran the country in 1526. A'Barrow, S. (2015). Death of a nation: A new history of Germany. Book Guild Publishing. P.96
Actually Croatian troops were already present, some 6-7000 troops from Slavonia. Another 5-6000 under Cristoph Frangepan was arriving from the south (Dalmatia). Most of Hungary was spared of warfare until Mohacs, while kongdom of Croatia was devastated since 1463, suffering several large Aknci raids every year wich led to some larger battles. Since king Matthias death none of the kings and nobles cared or did something about that. This gap and mistrust between two kingdoms was exploited by the Habsburgs who paid for garrisons and troops in Croatia as early after battle of Krbava. For this reason Habsburgs were elected unanimously for Croatian kings, Sapolya had no chances for support south of Drava river. Hungarians lost their kingdom due to the irresponsibility and arrogance of the nobility.
Actually Szapolayi (Zapolja in Croatian) was elected as king by the parlament (sabor) of Slavonija (the area around Zagreb between the rivers Drava and Sava) in 1527. Ferdinand had the support in the area south of Sava i.e. Croatia and the southwestern part of Slavonija. Civil war soon broke up in Slavonija and lasted untill 1536 when the nobles of Slavonija lost their faith in Szapolayi because of his dependance to the Ottomans.
@@markorimac2732 not really, they have elected Sapolya in Slavonia but overall support was low (mainly around Krizevci, Vrbovec area) and soon collapsed aftef Frangepan was killed in siege of Warasdin 1527
Hungary wasn't spared at all. The Ottoman raids reached southern Transylvania as far as Szászváros (Orăștie) in 1420, Brassó (Brasov) in 1421, Szeben (Sibiu) in 1432, Marosszentimre (Sântimbru) in 1442, the whole today's Banat region, sometimes Bács county, and today's eastern Slavonia (Szerém and Valkó counties, then part of Hungary proper) in 1391. There was a kinda large, Hungarian-inhabited town in today's Serbian part of Srem, not far from the Croatian border, named Eng, wich was fully devastated already in 1391. Actually, the Turks reached the Croatian and Slavonian heartland later, than the southern parts of Hungary, obviously because Croatia was further away from the Ottomans, and there was a Bosnian Kingdom between them until 1463. But this doesn't detract anything from the merits of the Croats in the fight against the Turks. :) And yes, Szapolyai, and his supporters were one of the worst figures in our history.
@@miklosnagy6325Correct, although Syrmia population was mixed Hungarian and Croatian, at the battles of Eng and Mangelos was fought by Ivan Morović, Ban of Syrmia, later to be wounded at Rovine. Bosnia wasn't no barrier at all, rather a rally point for Akincis since at least 1415 and the Battle of Lasva valley when duke Hrvatinić allied with them.
Yeah, it's like you're running through open fire hoping you would reach the end alive 🤣🤣 and the only time you are alive is when you are captured for slavery or execution in a few days
In Mohács there's a memorial for the battle and for the hungarian heroes who died in the battle. Many historians and archeologist work there even these days to find and give a proper funeral to the fallen. These people estimate the losses to 14000 for the hungarian side and around some thousand to the ottomans.
Regarding the Sultan's diary the Turks have buried 24 000 four days after the battle. At the end of September beginning of October a noble Hungarian lady has come to the battlefield with 400 peasant to find her son in law and buried the rest. We can just estimate it but 400 workers is a lot. I guess there were 30 000 christian casualties and possibly 5-10 000 Turks.
@@banderasbandita We had25-30 000 soldiers plus the servant in the camps estimated further 15-25 000. If you take the data from the existing mass graves there were women children and old men as well. Not combatant persons. So I think the sultan's diary and another Hungarian sources are correct. 24 000 plus estimated couple of another thousands.
@@georgebill1885 The thing is. That historians still dont know where exactly the battles took place (they think it wasnt only one place cause they found evidence in multiple villages). Maybe this estimate that you say incudes the civilians in the area as well. Ottomans usually slaved and killed almost everyone in occupied territory.
@@banderasbandita Brodarics himself wrote that the Turks attacked the Hungarians camps and the killed bodies covered the whole area. So practically it is a historical fact there was mass casualties among the non combatant people. Furthermore the battle started four days before the main clash. 20 000 akindzi were sent to harass the Hungarians until the main army arrives. Sunday-Monday-Tuesday then the main battle on Wednesday. During these days there were clashes practically everywhere on the area which is 60 km2 big. So mass graves could be anywhere.
The weather conditions are not mentioned in the video but they could have influenced the entire battle. 29 August 1526 started as a very hot day. During noon, there was no wind and the heat was extreme on the battlefield. The leaders of the army were humans and one may tend to make quick and perhaps not well-grounded decisions in such circumstances just not to remain standing on the field. However, at the end of the battle, a storm broke out. Heavy wind, rainfall and half-darkness made the escape of the fragmented Hungarian army extremely difficult and such weather conditions made the catastrophe more serious.
Yes, it’s always important to have a overview of all factors playing into a important Point in History like here. I can imagine that the Ottoman Army didn’t mind the weather as much as the Hungarians because the Hungarian Army was built up of Peasants and Knights in Heavy Armor which I can imagine baked them in the sun
to be honest, the loss at Mohács was pretty good for the habsburgs as our king was only 20 without heir and becuase of that marriage they could claim the kingdom....not wondering why their mercenaries were "late" from the battle, also Zapolya was late and he got Erdély (transsyl) after Mohács...the battle was ended before it started.
These rumours have already started just following the battle- without any justification at all. No one anticipated the collapse of the Hungarian Kingdom at that time.
No, the Ottoman loss was 200-250 soldiers. Almost none of the Crusaders survived. The Ottoman army traditionally attacked from the flanks. The Janissaries come in last. Janissaries open cannons and destroy the remaining enemy. With their king dead, how could there be any soldiers left?🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷

So thank you again! ❤ ps: The Hungarian Revolution in 1848-49 is also an interesting topic, and there are some battles which (i think) worth a video.

@@tinecaatinecaa8144 Mali was Muslim and could have helped the Turks also, with the Niger river having access to the Atlantic and further west.

@@tinecaatinecaa8144 Oh. One more thing; maybe you know the answer. It is said that Carthage went around western Africa to around Ghana. That would mean the sailing technology of the caravel wasn't necessary to do that, which would mean that Iberians could have gone around Africa back in the days of Rome or the Visigothic kingdom.
In that same year, Luther was traveling from Wittenberg to Marburg. It is well known that the Turkish threat to the "Holy Roman Empire" was an important topic between Luther and his friend and collaborator Philip Melanchthon. In that year, prior to the Siege of Vienna, Luther published two small treatises: Vom Kriege widder die Türcken and Eine Heerpredigt wider den Türcken. The Europeans called Suleiman "the Magnificent" or "the Great Turk." while the Muslims preferred to characterise him as "Suleiman the Lawgiver" because he harmonized the religious laws of the shari'a with those of the sultan." According to a Tischrede in Wittenberg. Luther had learned that Suleiman was interested in him and had inquired about his age. When the sultan had been informed of this, he is reported to have said: "Pity. I wish he were even younger. He would find in me a gracious protec tor: Luther sighed were when he heard this and made the sign of the cross. "May God protect me from such a generous benefactor, he quipped."" European Christianity was extremely divided internally and therefore could Wessels, A., Jansen, H. and Jansen-Hofland, L., n.d. The grand finale. p.85.
Great video but please use accurate representative depictions of Ottoman leaders. Bali Bey and Anatolian Troop's leaders has depicted as destert Arabian people. You can use high ranked man depictions from miniatures or European gravures from Melchior Lorck or Nicolas de Nicolay. They are very close to the period of this battle.
I imagine there were few that proposed in getting those other armies and not to go charging into battle. But as usual in history there are always overconfident and bloodthirsty nobles that win out the arguments.

Sacrifice to the algorithm. It's so crazy to think of these army sizes being in the tens of thousands when in England the war of roses feilding just a few thousand was pretty standard
The number of regular professional paid soldiers ( Kapıkulu ) employed by the High Porte throughout the Ottoman Empire did not exceed 15 - 16,000 men in the first third of the 16th century.[30] The Ottomans obtained most of the arquebuses for their janissary army from Hungarian and Venetian gunsmiths. This phenomenon was so widespread and severe, that in 1525 the Hungarian Parliament had to pass a law against the export of Hungarian-made arquebuses for the Ottoman Empire.[32]
It is likely that Habsburg advisers to the King Louis II pressured him to lead the army and rush the battle. They wanted the king to die like Vladislav in Varna in 1444 and sit an Habsburg on the throne.
Battle of Mohács is a classic example of those overrated battles which are always mentioned for symbolic reasons. Although the Hungarian army suffered a catastrophic defeat here, it was not the single (or even the most important ) factor in the fall of the Kingdom. 1. Loss of Belgrade and other key fortresses in (or before) 1521 caused the collapse of the southern border system. It left the southern and central part of the Hungarian Kingdom (the areas later fell under direct Ottoman control) totally defenseless. It was due to mostly the lack of money and manpower compared to the Ottoman Empire, but the decades old weak leadership didn't help either. After that it was only the matter of time when Hungarian Kingdom lose a big battle. There is a reason that it was an another fortress system supported by the Habsburg Empire that later halted and eventually stopped the Ottoman advances. 2. Chaos and civil war after the battle. Between 1526/1529 (Siege of Vienna) and 1541 there was still some time to reorganize the kingdom, especially because at that time the Ottoman army mostly fought in the Persian front. If the country had united under the Habsburgs, the outcome may have been slightly better. There was no hope to recapture Belgrade or even to satisfactorily defend the Great Hungarian Plain, though.
well yes it became a symbol for absolut victory and dominance for ottomans and that of complete defeat for Hungarians, the details of the battle itself rarely matter

Thank you for the excellent presentation. Although there are some facts and debates which are disturbing for us, Hungarians. The Battle of Mohács took part in 1526 and Buda was occupied in 1541. 15 years difference. What happened during these 15 years? Suleiman headed directly to Vienna. Ottomans were unable to stand up their heavy artillery because of the heavy rains, and the guerilla-type military operations of general Zrínyi, the Croatian-born hero of Hungarian history. This is why Suleiman's army could not cope with around 800 defenders of the fort of Kőszeg led by captain Jurisics. That is why Vienna survived the first Ottoman siege in 1529. Before the Battle of Mohács Suleiman had bound non-aggression pacts with nearly all surrounding countries of Hungary. The Habsburg Charles V took the advantage of the Turkish success, attacked, robbed, and set fire to the state Vatican in the next year. Only the Czech noblemen did not let down the Hungarian Kingdom, because king Louis II was the king of Bohemia, too. These facts have to be considered a betrayal of Hungary and the whole of Christian Europe, too, from the side of our neighbors. History repeats itself. During the first Mongol invasion, Europe did the same. In vain, the Hungarian Kingdom finally defeated the Golden Horde. In Nándorfehárvár (Beograd) in 1456 French King I Francis sponsored the Turkish troops, and their artillery was operated by german mercenaries. That is why Sándor Márai, the world-famous Hungarian writer and poet wrote about Hungary: "Christ of the folks". We also can consider betrayals of Europe as the first attempts to partition Hungary, which finally succeeded in Trianon after WWI. The failure of the inexperienced youngster King Louis II was, in fact, the shame of the continent.
Macarlar Atilla nın soyundan gelen Türklerdir bugün Macaristan Türk birliği gözlemci ülkesi ve Türk birliği Kurulduğunda bu birliğe katılacaktır,Avrupalılar Macarları hiçbir zaman kendileri gibi görmediler sizin Türk olduğunuzu biliyorlar ve size asla bir avrupalı gibi davranmayacaklar dostum!
The map is faulty: Louis II was Czech-Moravian king also. His sister's husband, Ferdinand Habsburg got his kingdoms after his death. Of course his kingdoms were separated but a plenty of Czech soldier came also(lot of them had not reach the battlefield in time).

The biggest reason for defeat of the Hungarians was because of their retreat in that terrible organization. If they stayed fighting until the night and then retreat as soon as the battle stops the outcome would have been much better than what happened

The Ottoman empire of the first half of the 16th century was an absolute juggernaut destroying the Mamluk Sultanate and Hungary, wrecking an enormous Holy League at Preveza, and trashing the Safavids at Chaldiran
@Milošević in hell lol what a cope Suleiman's campaign in Vienna was a mere give a try rather than an organized siege like the second one, and losing naval wars against the Portuguese in raging waters like the Indian Ocean is nothing to be ashamed of
@@nenenindonu cope
Yes, Sulieman didn't get defeated like the second siege of Vienna, he just have to withdraw due to the intense logistic problem, but the Indian Ocean war was indeed a significant failure, it blocked the opportunity for Ottomans to exert further influence on Asia, even in this case, the whole Southeast Asia has become Islamic under the influence of Ottomans, just imagine what if they are not stoped by the Portuguese. But this was more on the strategic level and the negative effects can only be reflected in a century or two, at that time, it seems just a minor tactical setback. So it's right to say that Ottomans were a juggernaut in the 15 16th century.😉
They destroyed some beautiful kingdoms and cities on their path. I wish if we can see how would they look like today without turkish influence in those few centuries
@@isyraf9989 Yes but Austrian empire is a higher civilization, who cares, they're Europeans. No one wants to be conquered by turks.

By what I have read, pointing at an end point of the battle is hard, though many considered that they may have maybe fought for atleast 2 or 3 hours, looking at circumstances. It may have either ended late or earlier

@jaffer raza the Ottoman Empire was nothing against the great empires of Europe
In most turkic battles, seljucks, ottomans etc. involved, there is a main theme of faint retreat. It can be seen in most prominent battles...From mankizert to mohacs... They used feint retreat, to distrupt or to lessen the impact of heavy cavalry charge, to distrupt advancing lines so that gaps would occur where cavalry would infiltrate, flank or wear down and guide the main enemy force to a distinctively selected area. In this case, Hungarian main cavalry was guided to kill zone of artillery, arrow and Janissary muskets. Ottoman historical records mention like this, how ever most western sources recorded these as initial Hungarian successes. Actually this really shows how disciplined ottoman army was and how well did the job that under heavy pressure. The trick of the feint retreat is not to let enemy realize that the retreat is feint. It is exceptionally difficult to do it. Hannibal could do it Cannae with great success. To this day, Hungarians thought that they had the upper hand. However, any one gone through Ottoman archives and investigate the battles, they could see how ottomans excelled this art of battle. Ottomans for years, one after another decisively crushed Christians armies. If you listened these channels, ottomans won these battles at the last round, mostly by luck, superior numbers, a betrayal of some of subordinates, or arrogance of some faction. It always stated the initial successes of christian armies. However, whatever the reason mentioned, in the end of most of these battles Ottomans mostly annihilate the opposing forces, killing major commanders, even kings, staying owning the battlefield. This can only be achieved if the enemy is encircled. Ottomans in most major battles could achieve this.
Haklısın. Ayrıca sahte ricatin gerçekçiliği az olmayan sayıda askeri birliği feda etmeyi de gerektirir.
Indeed. Mongols and Turks tricked Europeans too many times this way yet they still believe that they were winning at the start...
The Moghuls in India did something similar. One of their flanks would do a controlled retreat and when the bulk of the opposing army shifted the flank on the other side would go around and encircle the opposing army.
Moghul empire is Turkish empire @@annaschmidt853

thx bro
Fun fact: I was in school in the good ol' 80's and when it came to learn about our loss at Mohács, we were told that Tomori charged (so far okay) in the center (apparently not) with the infantry (he definitely did not lead them, according to the video) and the Ottomans feigned retreat leading him and his troops in front of their cannons. Now, at 46, I have to face the fact that we actually charged at the cannons without any trickery from the Turks. Noice. It's an interesting feeling learning how you knew something fundamental wrong for almost 4 decades...
I read in a book about Hungarian cavalry overall, that the initial cavalry charge itself was devastating for Turkish infantry, but after they turned around for round 2, the infantry chained the cannons together, making an obvious obstacle for the horses. And standing horsemen are much more easier targets.
There is a war tactic used by the Turks throughout history. 'Turan tactic' or 'Wolf trap'. The vanguards stage a mock attack and retreat. Seeing this, the leaders attack with their entire army, but the real army has already passed behind them. Mohaç is the best war in which the Turks used this tactic. It would be unfair to both the Hungarians and the Turks to say that the Hungarian cavalry, which was the best in Europe at that time, attacked the cannons. I advise you not to reference only western sources in your sources.
I found like three depictions of the battle so far, and I think ultimately we will never really know the absolute truth, battles were very chaotic things, in this ibstance most of the Hungarian high command died also, so it's not like they were able to leave behind their take of the events.
@@transylvanian8437 no. Cannons cant stop direct cavalry attack. So ottoman armys design is abnormal in this war. Their design is 3 line. First line retreat than second and last line is cannons and rifles. And first and second line didnt only retreat they spread flanks. And some of ottoman armys in ambush they attackd from back. Than hungarians escaped. However there was only 1 way -swamp-.
Maybe historical sources about the battle were not quite clear. In such case historians may prepare several descriptions of the battle depending on their interpretations and guessings. Moreover descriprion of famous battles tha is presented at schools are always simplified. Additionaly I think historymarche sometimes uses translations o battle descriptions from Polish historians (because is easier to translate from Polish than from Hungarian - because some names are pronounced in Polish manner).

Later on, John's second son, Matthias Corvin, managed to also stand in the ottoman's path with his strong black hungarian army.
I have a recommendation for upcoming videos. They would be perfect when you would show us how the soldiers looked like (like in your thumbnails).

THE TURKS AND THE WEST. Europe stood in awe of the Ottomans who crushed many states and conquered vast territories, going, as all patriotic Turks will proudly point out, "all the way to the gates of Vienna." European literature is replete with the depictions of the Turk as the hated enemy. The English often thought of the Turk as awe-inspiring and destructive. Thomas Fuller wrote in The Holy Warre (1639): "The Turkish Empire is the greatest... the sun ever saw. ...Grass springeth not where the grand signior's horse setteth his foot."

This page always uses the same style when describing the wars won by the Turks. He explains it as if the Turks could not have won without the internal conflicts of the side they were fighting against, but they won because they could not be united. The truth of the matter is that Turkish armies were the most overwhelming power in the world at that time. For example, there are LoL games that last longer than the Battle of Mohács that he describes.

Hence, why did the Hungarians not want to group up to combine forces? Or understanding each side's motivation for not taking the best course of action for more significant results. Really helps to start up a research paper or project for a particular topic

It was one of the most consequential battles in entire Central and Eastern European history, which affected the future of many nations and conserved the gap between Western and Eastern Europe.
The Battle of Mohacs is one of my most favorite battles like of all time! Why? Not only because the Ottoman Empire was at its peak during this time but it also because this battle is the ultimate result of the French's defeat at the Battle of Pavia in the Italian Wars as well. And when that happened, it led to the Franco-Ottoman alliance, which led to the military operations such as the Battle of Mohacs.
Speaking of Franco-Ottoman alliance, will this channel featured a video about it in the future? I hope so because such a content is so rare to find on TH-cam.
At its peak, but smaller than the Spanish lake, the Pacific Ocean, which is just one of the Spanish lakes. The Spanish Empire saved Europe from Islam. Spaniards contributed to the German defense at Vienna, but no one mentions the Spanish contribution because of anti-Spanish bias.

The storytelling, narrator's voice and soundtrack made watching a map feel EPIC! I learned a few things too
amazing ! the mobilization the hungarian army was an interesting insight comparing if the entire army could have linked up together . This is really well made
Not just Hungary, but also Bohemia. And in only 6 hrs, that even the Sultante himself didn't beilve it, and moved slowly in the new lands, then ran back after capturing the capital, thinking that there are hidden traps or armies.
We all watched the same video.
@@TriscuitSnacks 😂😂😂
Basically there were a hidden armies.
The seemingly unstoppable Turks were at the height of their powers; they inflicted a massive defeat on the combined imperial armies at the Battle of Mohacs in Hungary and overran the country in 1526.
A'Barrow, S. (2015). Death of a nation: A new history of Germany. Book Guild Publishing. P.96
Actually Croatian troops were already present, some 6-7000 troops from Slavonia. Another 5-6000 under Cristoph Frangepan was arriving from the south (Dalmatia). Most of Hungary was spared of warfare until Mohacs, while kongdom of Croatia was devastated since 1463, suffering several large Aknci raids every year wich led to some larger battles. Since king Matthias death none of the kings and nobles cared or did something about that. This gap and mistrust between two kingdoms was exploited by the Habsburgs who paid for garrisons and troops in Croatia as early after battle of Krbava. For this reason Habsburgs were elected unanimously for Croatian kings, Sapolya had no chances for support south of Drava river. Hungarians lost their kingdom due to the irresponsibility and arrogance of the nobility.
Actually Szapolayi (Zapolja in Croatian) was elected as king by the parlament (sabor) of Slavonija (the area around Zagreb between the rivers Drava and Sava) in 1527. Ferdinand had the support in the area south of Sava i.e. Croatia and the southwestern part of Slavonija. Civil war soon broke up in Slavonija and lasted untill 1536 when the nobles of Slavonija lost their faith in Szapolayi because of his dependance to the Ottomans.
@@markorimac2732 not really, they have elected Sapolya in Slavonia but overall support was low (mainly around Krizevci, Vrbovec area) and soon collapsed aftef Frangepan was killed in siege of Warasdin 1527
Hungary wasn't spared at all. The Ottoman raids reached southern Transylvania as far as Szászváros (Orăștie) in 1420, Brassó (Brasov) in 1421, Szeben (Sibiu) in 1432, Marosszentimre (Sântimbru) in 1442, the whole today's Banat region, sometimes Bács county, and today's eastern Slavonia (Szerém and Valkó counties, then part of Hungary proper) in 1391. There was a kinda large, Hungarian-inhabited town in today's Serbian part of Srem, not far from the Croatian border, named Eng, wich was fully devastated already in 1391. Actually, the Turks reached the Croatian and Slavonian heartland later, than the southern parts of Hungary, obviously because Croatia was further away from the Ottomans, and there was a Bosnian Kingdom between them until 1463. But this doesn't detract anything from the merits of the Croats in the fight against the Turks. :) And yes, Szapolyai, and his supporters were one of the worst figures in our history.
@@miklosnagy6325Correct, although Syrmia population was mixed Hungarian and Croatian, at the battles of Eng and Mangelos was fought by Ivan Morović, Ban of Syrmia, later to be wounded at Rovine. Bosnia wasn't no barrier at all, rather a rally point for Akincis since at least 1415 and the Battle of Lasva valley when duke Hrvatinić allied with them.
@@miklosnagy6325 But Szapolyai family was Slavic family, from all sides of their ancestors.
It almost always sucked to be an infantryman in the medieval era, especially when the cavalry runs away.
Yeah, it's like you're running through open fire hoping you would reach the end alive 🤣🤣 and the only time you are alive is when you are captured for slavery or execution in a few days
I shit on Napoopleon's name.
In Mohács there's a memorial for the battle and for the hungarian heroes who died in the battle. Many historians and archeologist work there even these days to find and give a proper funeral to the fallen. These people estimate the losses to 14000 for the hungarian side and around some thousand to the ottomans.
Regarding the Sultan's diary the Turks have buried 24 000 four days after the battle. At the end of September beginning of October a noble Hungarian lady has come to the battlefield with 400 peasant to find her son in law and buried the rest. We can just estimate it but 400 workers is a lot. I guess there were 30 000 christian casualties and possibly 5-10 000 Turks.
@@georgebill1885 Bruh. We didnt even have that much soldiers
@@banderasbandita We had25-30 000 soldiers plus the servant in the camps estimated further 15-25 000. If you take the data from the existing mass graves there were women children and old men as well. Not combatant persons. So I think the sultan's diary and another Hungarian sources are correct. 24 000 plus estimated couple of another thousands.
@@georgebill1885 The thing is. That historians still dont know where exactly the battles took place (they think it wasnt only one place cause they found evidence in multiple villages). Maybe this estimate that you say incudes the civilians in the area as well. Ottomans usually slaved and killed almost everyone in occupied territory.
@@banderasbandita Brodarics himself wrote that the Turks attacked the Hungarians camps and the killed bodies covered the whole area. So practically it is a historical fact there was mass casualties among the non combatant people. Furthermore the battle started four days before the main clash. 20 000 akindzi were sent to harass the Hungarians until the main army arrives. Sunday-Monday-Tuesday then the main battle on Wednesday. During these days there were clashes practically everywhere on the area which is 60 km2 big. So mass graves could be anywhere.
Thats the battle i' been waiting for great job!
The weather conditions are not mentioned in the video but they could have influenced the entire battle. 29 August 1526 started as a very hot day. During noon, there was no wind and the heat was extreme on the battlefield. The leaders of the army were humans and one may tend to make quick and perhaps not well-grounded decisions in such circumstances just not to remain standing on the field. However, at the end of the battle, a storm broke out. Heavy wind, rainfall and half-darkness made the escape of the fragmented Hungarian army extremely difficult and such weather conditions made the catastrophe more serious.
the leaders were humans? wow are you sure they werent reptilians?
And they ate pasta for lunch like our soccer team in Mexico.
Yes, and all of this only impacted the Hungarian army. :P
Yes, it’s always important to have a overview of all factors playing into a important Point in History like here. I can imagine that the Ottoman Army didn’t mind the weather as much as the Hungarians because the Hungarian Army was built up of Peasants and Knights in Heavy Armor which I can imagine baked them in the sun
Hava koşulları sadece Macarları mı olumsuz etkiledi Türk ordusunu etkilemedi mi😂
to be honest, the loss at Mohács was pretty good for the habsburgs as our king was only 20 without heir and becuase of that marriage they could claim the kingdom....not wondering why their mercenaries were "late" from the battle, also Zapolya was late and he got Erdély (transsyl) after Mohács...the battle was ended before it started.
These rumours have already started just following the battle- without any justification at all. No one anticipated the collapse of the Hungarian Kingdom at that time.
Interesting.
No, the Ottoman loss was 200-250 soldiers. Almost none of the Crusaders survived. The Ottoman army traditionally attacked from the flanks. The Janissaries come in last. Janissaries open cannons and destroy the remaining enemy. With their king dead, how could there be any soldiers left?🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷

As a Hungarian, I can't thank you enough for making these videos. As a history lover, it's really interesting to read about these battles and events, but it even more fascinating to see them animated. So thank you again! ❤
ps: The Hungarian Revolution in 1848-49 is also an interesting topic, and there are some battles which (i think) worth a video.
Really, really good depiction of all the events converging to the battle.

It's absurd that the Turks didn't go to America to colonize too. The Jews kept you from it. All you had to do was sail from the Sahara. It's not like the Ottomans couldn't beat the Moroccans, or couldn't bypass them.

@@tinecaatinecaa8144 Mali was Muslim and could have helped the Turks also, with the Niger river having access to the Atlantic and further west.
I also wonder why Muslims didn't go around Africa to learn more about the world there. They couldn't have been limited to only eastern African coasts for hundreds of years.
@@tinecaatinecaa8144 Oh. One more thing; maybe you know the answer.
It is said that Carthage went around western Africa to around Ghana. That would mean the sailing technology of the caravel wasn't necessary to do that, which would mean that Iberians could have gone around Africa back in the days of Rome or the Visigothic kingdom.

In that same year, Luther was traveling from Wittenberg to Marburg. It is well known that the Turkish threat to the "Holy Roman Empire" was an important topic between Luther and his friend and collaborator Philip Melanchthon. In that year, prior to the Siege of Vienna, Luther published two small treatises: Vom Kriege widder die Türcken and Eine Heerpredigt wider den Türcken.
The Europeans called Suleiman "the Magnificent" or "the Great Turk." while the Muslims preferred to characterise him as "Suleiman the Lawgiver" because he harmonized the religious laws of the shari'a with those of the sultan." According to a Tischrede in Wittenberg. Luther had learned that Suleiman was interested in him and had inquired about his age. When the sultan had been informed of this, he is reported to have said: "Pity. I wish he were even younger. He would find in me a gracious protec tor: Luther sighed were when he heard this and made the sign of the cross. "May God protect me from such a generous benefactor, he quipped.""
European Christianity was extremely divided internally and therefore could Wessels, A., Jansen, H. and Jansen-Hofland, L., n.d. The grand finale. p.85.
Many times I've passed along the roads that cross the fields south of Mohács not knowing that right there it was where the famous battle took place
Great video but please use accurate representative depictions of Ottoman leaders. Bali Bey and Anatolian Troop's leaders has depicted as destert Arabian people. You can use high ranked man depictions from miniatures or European gravures from Melchior Lorck or Nicolas de Nicolay. They are very close to the period of this battle.

Why don't you mention that Mohacs is the fastest anhelation battle in war history? Ottomans might was so devastating
Sacrifice to the algorithm. It's so crazy to think of these army sizes being in the tens of thousands when in England the war of roses feilding just a few thousand was pretty standard
Not only that but there were 3 armies of the Hungarian king could not reach the battle. The Croatian, the Czech and the Transylvanian.
Towton was a massive battle for medieval standards
Europe basically didn't have standing armies at the Time, the ottomans controlled a very big area and new how to effectively recruit and build armies
The number of regular professional paid soldiers ( Kapıkulu ) employed by the High Porte throughout the Ottoman Empire did not exceed 15 - 16,000 men in the first third of the 16th century.[30] The Ottomans obtained most of the arquebuses for their janissary army from Hungarian and Venetian gunsmiths. This phenomenon was so widespread and severe, that in 1525 the Hungarian Parliament had to pass a law against the export of Hungarian-made arquebuses for the Ottoman Empire.[32]

It is likely that Habsburg advisers to the King Louis II pressured him to lead the army and rush the battle. They wanted the king to die like Vladislav in Varna in 1444 and sit an Habsburg on the throne.
I'd love to see you guys incorporate actual historical artwork analysis into the actual part of the video instead of just an ad for masterworks.
Battle of Mohács is a classic example of those overrated battles which are always mentioned for symbolic reasons.
Although the Hungarian army suffered a catastrophic defeat here, it was not the single (or even the most important ) factor in the fall of the Kingdom.
1. Loss of Belgrade and other key fortresses in (or before) 1521 caused the collapse of the southern border system. It left the southern and central part of the Hungarian Kingdom (the areas later fell under direct Ottoman control) totally defenseless. It was due to mostly the lack of money and manpower compared to the Ottoman Empire, but the decades old weak leadership didn't help either. After that it was only the matter of time when Hungarian Kingdom lose a big battle.
There is a reason that it was an another fortress system supported by the Habsburg Empire that later halted and eventually stopped the Ottoman advances.
2. Chaos and civil war after the battle. Between 1526/1529 (Siege of Vienna) and 1541 there was still some time to reorganize the kingdom, especially because at that time the Ottoman army mostly fought in the Persian front. If the country had united under the Habsburgs, the outcome may have been slightly better. There was no hope to recapture Belgrade or even to satisfactorily defend the Great Hungarian Plain, though.
well yes it became a symbol for absolut victory and dominance for ottomans and that of complete defeat for Hungarians, the details of the battle itself rarely matter
Really appreciate your work and always love to watch it.

Thank you for the excellent presentation. Although there are some facts and debates which are disturbing for us, Hungarians. The Battle of Mohács took part in 1526 and Buda was occupied in 1541. 15 years difference. What happened during these 15 years? Suleiman headed directly to Vienna. Ottomans were unable to stand up their heavy artillery because of the heavy rains, and the guerilla-type military operations of general Zrínyi, the Croatian-born hero of Hungarian history. This is why Suleiman's army could not cope with around 800 defenders of the fort of Kőszeg led by captain Jurisics. That is why Vienna survived the first Ottoman siege in 1529. Before the Battle of Mohács Suleiman had bound non-aggression pacts with nearly all surrounding countries of Hungary. The Habsburg Charles V took the advantage of the Turkish success, attacked, robbed, and set fire to the state Vatican in the next year. Only the Czech noblemen did not let down the Hungarian Kingdom, because king Louis II was the king of Bohemia, too. These facts have to be considered a betrayal of Hungary and the whole of Christian Europe, too, from the side of our neighbors. History repeats itself. During the first Mongol invasion, Europe did the same. In vain, the Hungarian Kingdom finally defeated the Golden Horde. In Nándorfehárvár (Beograd) in 1456 French King I Francis sponsored the Turkish troops, and their artillery was operated by german mercenaries. That is why Sándor Márai, the world-famous Hungarian writer and poet wrote about Hungary: "Christ of the folks". We also can consider betrayals of Europe as the first attempts to partition Hungary, which finally succeeded in Trianon after WWI. The failure of the inexperienced youngster King Louis II was, in fact, the shame of the continent.
