Wars between Christians and Turks primarily refer to the conflicts during the medieval and early modern periods, notably the Crusades and the Ottoman wars in Europe. The Crusades (11th to 13th centuries) were military campaigns initiated by European Christians aimed at reclaiming the Holy Land from Muslim control, including the Seljuk Turks. Later, the Ottoman Empire, which emerged in the 14th century, engaged in numerous battles with Christian states in Europe, leading to significant territorial changes and cultural exchanges. These conflicts were driven by religious, political, and territorial ambitions.
