  • yes turk fight very bravely as well 1453 since sultan was only 20 young man haw many people you know they make history when were 20 be honest

  • Thats true whovever doesnt believe this listen to how rich the Byzantines where. 2/3 of all Europes wealth was in Constantinople. So when the crusaders got in the city the fourth one. They said screw the Muslims while sack the city. There was no fight the Byzantines were tricked. Thats why Orthodox greeks dont trust the Cholic Latins... Even to this day which should exist. We had the greatest empirefrom Europe. The Turks took over a city that was not its former self

  • nice clip

  • @Fantomenace Actually they werent trying to get to the middle east the crusaders decided to attack constantinople instead of jerusalem after they attacked zara and were excomunicated.

  • @Fantomenace they had 200 years to repair.

  • @Boelcke1916 Yes sadly the relationship between Crusaders and the Byzantines was poor and full of mistrust, no side was more or less to blame than the other, if only the two worked together Constantinople and the Crusader states would of lasted longer.

  • Constantinople ? This is not Constantinople ! Thiiis iiiiiisss İSTANBUL =)

  • @IchKommeAufJotunheim

    I agree. When I think of the Eastern Roman Empire and Greece I can only think of great things. When I think of the Ottoman Empire I only think of genocide and invasions. I'm British so don't accuse me of being some Greek nationalist, anyone.

  • I want to make crusade when I'm watching this ..

  • @Boelcke1916

    Rome was the greatest :))

  • 250000 turks against 7.000 greeks ..

    thats the brave story of the fall of contantinople

    7000 greeks against 250000 barbarians nomads

    konstantinos the last autokrator of Polis died in the front line of the battle ,when the turkish sultan was siting like a girl in his tent

  • @IchKommeAufJotunheim -

    You think the middle ages was peaceful if you lost a war your family were either turned slaves or slaughtered. Thats how it was back then, if there was Genocide during the ottoman times there is no record. There is what Turks call a civil war but Armenias call Genocide, but we don't know what really happened because Armenia refuses to open their archives for historian to judge. Until that happens Armenia is just hiding the truth and has no case.
