One of the main reasons that Constantinople remained in the hands of the Byzantine Empire for so long was due to its massive walls.
In 1453, the Ottomans were experts at manufacturing cannons. These were vital weapons in breaching the walls. After several days bombardment, a section of the wall fell, and the well-trained Ottoman army took the city after several days street-fighting.
