I am not sure what "the" Islamic Empire is. There have twenty-five or so different Islamic Empires. However, there are some territories that the Ottomans conquered which had never been conquered before by any Islamic Empire. These territories were primarily in southeastern Europe and included, Constantinople/Istanbul, Greece, and most of its islands, all of the Yugoslav countries, Bulgaria, Romania, and Hungary and assorted pieces from other bordering European nations. Additionally, the Ottoman Empire brought Eritrea and Djibouti into an Islamic Empire for the first time.
