Events Leading to Battle of Lepanto, 7 October 1571

The battle of Lepanto was one of the turning points in the struggle of Europeans to preserve their Freedom and Humanity from the talons of the encroaching Turk Ottoman Empire.

In 1571, the European Union forged by Don Juan of Austria, saved Italy and the Western Mediterranean from unimaginable destruction and human suffering.

Lepanto ranks with the Battle of Vienna (1683) as one of the two major watersheds that saved the European way of Life and protected the tender bud of Renaissance.

Since the 16th century, October 7 has been celebrated as a Feast Day in the Catholic Tradition.

  • @mehmet1855 What are you waiting for?

    COME AND GET IT !

  • La producción del vídeo es buena , bien documentado . Pero es peor una verdad a medias q una mentira. Venecia tenia el poder comercial y monetario de Europa y esta batalla responde a muchos intereses económicos y políticos más que religiosos. De hecho el Imperio Otomano siguió teniendo la primacía del Mediterráneo por mucho tiempo.

    La combinación de ingeniería veneciana e inafantería española fue indudablemente buena.

    De todas formas el vídeo apesta a fanatismo barato.

  • I wish pakistan was more like turkey. Secular and progressive. Pshycho arabs have ruined pakistan.

    Arabs were the ones who fought the mighty TURKS on behalf of the british. Look up Lawrence of Arabia and the Arab revolt.

    TURKEY # 1

  • Do not count your blessings yet.Turks will come back again soon to get you:-)

  • remember 1565 The great Siege of Malta whern Islam was stopped from attacking Europe from the South

  • emiljen2

    ok muslims are growing faster than europeans but they count zero, they are nothing, only poor people mainly illegal immigrants. So don't worry.

  • Cyprus was taken later as part of a peace treaty between venice and the Otts.

  • Spanish navy save Europe.
