The Ottoman Turks were a tribe of Central Asian Türks who come from the area that is now Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan. They crossed into Anatolia as warriors on horseback and delivered sound victories over the Byzantine Empire and the Seljuk Turks (another tribe in Anatolia with similar provenance). The Ottoman Empire grew through strategic alliances, modern military tactics, and novel inventions. They also pacified areas they controlled since they were relatively tolerant of different religions, ethnicities, and cultures.
The Ottomans had an incredible command of modern military technologies, using fast and decisive naval vessels to attack Greek islands. They also had modern cavalry formations, modern artillery such as cannons, uniforms and flags to prevent friendly fire, generals who used innovative strategies, and incredible siege weapons.
The Ottomans were intelligent and strategic in the disposition of the armies and were very capable of defeating their enemies and expanding their power. Secondly, the Ottomans were quick to establish a large bureaucracy and regional autonomy which made management of a physically expansive empire much easier.
The Ottoman Empire grew through conquest and treaties of vassal-hood.
