Ottoman Empire 1453 - İstanbul - Constantinople

The rise of the Ottoman Empire (12991453) refers to the period which started with the weakening of the Seljuk Sultanate of Rum in the very early 14th century and ended with the Byzantine Empire decline and the Fall of Constantinople in 1453.

The rise of the Ottomans correlates with the decline of the Roman Empire, which generated the shift in power from a singular Christian European society to an Islamic influence. The beginning of this period was characterized by the Byzantine-Ottoman wars which lasted for a century and a half. During this period, the Ottoman Empire gained control of both Anatolia and the Balkans.

Immediately after the establishment of the Anatolian Turkish Beyliks, some Turkic principalities united with the Ottomans against the Byzantine Empire. The rise period witnessed Sultanate of Rum's defeat against the Mongols in the 14th century and was followed by the growth of the Ottoman Empire (14531683)—a period referred as Pax Ottomana, the economic and social stability attained in the conquered provinces of the Ottoman Empire, by some historians.

@BlameThaGame democratic ? so you seriously think that the leader of your country is chosen by the people ? you must be out of your mind. what if those history books are tampered with ? in that case your knowledge about history would be useless; do you realise this ? after WWII all history book printing factories were owned by zionists, jews. this is why they could make us believe 6 million jews were killed by hitler. in reality most of the victims were gypsies.

The architectural style which was to take on classical form after the conquest of Istanbul, was born in Bursa and in Edirne. The Great Mosque (Ulu Cami) in Bursa was the first Seljuk mosque to be converted into a domed one. Edirne was the last Ottoman capital before Istanbul, and it is here that we witness the final stages in the architectural development that culminated in the construction of the great mosques of Istanbul.
