A small Mongol squadron of some thousand men tried to take Vienna, pillaging its neighboring cities, but Duke Frederick the II of Austria and his knights repelled the attack and killed as many as 700 Mongols in the ensuing battle. Also, at the same time, Great Khan Ögedei of the Mongol Empire died, and the Mongols never tried to take European lands (in the same effect) again.
The Monguls
Mongols lived in tribes.
The Monguls wanted India to change to Islam.
Vienna was saved from the Mongol invasion primarily due to the death of the Mongol leader Ögedei Khan in 1241, which led to a withdrawal of Mongol forces as they returned to Mongolia to participate in the succession crisis. Additionally, the fierce resistance put up by the city's defenders and the strategic decisions by local leaders contributed to delaying the Mongol advance. The Mongols later chose to focus on consolidating their power in other regions, ultimately sparing Vienna from destruction.
Vienna was saved from invasion during the Ottoman Empire's sieges in the late 17th century, particularly during the two major sieges in 1529 and 1683. The pivotal moment came in 1683 when a coalition of European forces, including the Polish army led by King John III Sobieski, successfully lifted the siege on September 12. This victory marked a significant turning point in the struggle against Ottoman expansion into Europe.
