The Turks attacked Vienna twice, first in 1529 and again in 1631. The first siege in 1529 was led by Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent, but it ultimately failed to capture the city. The second siege in 1631 was less significant and also did not result in the city's capture. These attempts were part of the broader conflict between the Ottoman Empire and various European powers.

The Turks captured Constantinople in 1453 primarily through a combination of military strategy and advanced technology. Led by Sultan Mehmed II, they utilized large cannons, including the massive "Basilica" cannon, to breach the city's formidable walls. The Ottomans also employed effective siege tactics, cutting off resources and reinforcements to the city while outmaneuvering the defenders. Ultimately, after a prolonged siege, they stormed the city on May 29, 1453, marking the end of the Byzantine Empire.
