Most historians of the Ottoman Empire will argue that the conquest of Constantinople by Sultan Mehmet II was the important victory that Ottomans ever won.
Even though they were Turks, the Ottoman Empire never called themselves Turks. They opened the doors to whomever wanted to serve the empire. They gathered the smartest population for 600 years and ruled large portions of the world. Ottomans were not cruel towards the countries that they conquered. They did not make foreign people slaves or force them to be Muslims, although non-Muslims within the Empire paid additional taxes and were excluded from some activities. The Ottoman Empire was the best organized Turkish empire ever. Before the Ottomans, there were many Turkish states or empires; however, they were not as successful as the Ottomans.

No,Russia never invaded,but France has once invaded Russia...that's for sure! Actually, Russia did invade France, but not as the aggressor country, the way Napoleon did to Russia. In 1814, after Napoleon invaded Russia then retreated back to France, Tsar Alexander I and the Russian Army (along with the Prussian and Austro-Hungarian armies) followed the retreating Napoleon all the way back to France. The Russian army entered France and defeated Napoleon at last. On March 31, 1814, Tsar Alexander I rode into Paris.
