Ottoman Empire

Austria-Hungary

Well Turks usually came from different places like Russia, Arabia, etc. But mainly from Central Asia what is now today Turkestan (Uzbekistan, Tajikstan, etc.)

When the Mongolian Empire invaded Turkestan, the Turks started to move to Anatolia(present day Turkey) controlled by the East Roman Empire.

After the Mongolian Empire fell, the Turks were influenced with all of the Empires rising and falling. Therefore, the Turks created a Empire conquering and ending the East Roman Empire, then the Turks created and empire that spreaded through 3 continents Europe, Asia, and Africa.

Beaches Turks & Caicos and The Alexandra Resort and Spa are two of the many resorts located in the Turks and Caicos. These two resorts are highly rated.

The Ottomans took control of much northern Africa, save Morocco, most of the Balkans and south-central Europe, the Levant, Anatolia, Mesopotamia and some of the Arabian Red Sea coastline. Any area not listed was probably not brought under their control.

Both empires built powerful militaries with gunpowder weapons - Apex

I think so coz Jammal is also included in his name

A group called the Turks.

Yes. The original Ottomans were a nomadic Türkic Tribe inhabiting what is not Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and Turkmenistan. When they crossed into Anatolia, however, they became sedentary.

The whole of the Levant splintered into four countries, that Officer T.E. Lawrence gave to the Arabs, the story is romanticized in that silly O'Toole/Sharif/Guiness movie. T.E. Lawrence, otherwise known as "Lawrence of Arabia," alongside Faisal's son (forget his name....), fought off the Turks and destroyed the Ottoman Empire, his story is allegedly "compelling" because he did it all "single handed." T.E. Lawrence is a British hero, because he is the only man in recent history whose military tactics brought down an empire, the significant thing about T.E. Lawrence though is that said empire was at the peak of its strength.

This was no moribund western Roman Empire like the Goths destroyed, or a decaying Constantinople like Sultan Mehmed II of the Turks took, nor was it the corrupt Chinese and Persian societies Genghis Khan took over, the Ottoman Empire was wealthy, it had well-trained soldiers and they could all fight. The British are generally proud of T.E. Lawrence, again, and seen as a "national hero" because the only other military commander in human history to destroy an empire that was still strong, was Alexander the Great. Many patriotic British historians point out however that where Alexander had "badass" Macedonian phalanx soldiers, who by the way were every bit as tough, well-trained and hardy as the Spartans, T.E. Lawrence was commanding a bunch of "rag tag, undisciplined Bedouin." The Bedouin were good fighters, provided of course, they were fighting alongside their fellow tribesmen.

The whole concept of "military discipline," "order," and "chain of command" simply didn't exist among them. T.E. Lawrence was able to succeed because he primarily focused on their strengths; namely, high speed raiding and disappearing into the desert. The reason the Ottomans were worn out, and eventually defeated, was because Lawrence struck them, it seemed, literally everywhere. One day he was in one outpost, just barely a couple of days later him and his Bedouin soldiers were at another.

If I had to draw an analogy of Lawrence's tactics; imagine two boxers in the ring, one boxer constantly chasing, the other constantly back pedaling but jabbing, and perpetually out of the chasing boxer's reach, this keeps up for 10 rounds. On the 11th round a fresh boxer jumps in and just unloads on the poor tired devil. That was basically, what the British did to the Turks; Lawrence wore them out and weakened them through constant raids, then the British army stepped in, once they were done with the Germans (letting "the Americans handle them"), and basically just massacred the Turks. Again those men were starving, worn out from constant marching, fighting, and running for their lives, and low on ammo, by the time Lawrence was done battering them they were no match for the British military.

Obviously, T.E. Lawrence did not destroy the Turks on his own, however he was basically given the credit for destroying the Ottoman Empire.

The Armenian women would smear mud on their faces to make themselves look ugly to avoid being raped by Turkish soldiers. All of the men were killed first so it was difficult to fight back.

originally from Turkey but they spreed during the Ottoman empire all over the Islamic world where you can find them now in Syria Iraq and Libya and even USA

The Ottoman Empire ruled most of the Middle East from the 1500s until World War 1.

Greece fought their independence war from 1821-1829. They declared independence in 1821 and won it finally in 1829.

However, it took most of the next century (up until 1913) for the northern regions of modern Greece such as Epirus, Thessaly, Macedonia, and Western Thrace to become part of the Greek State.

"Fatih Sultan Mehmet" is how he is know in Turkish... If you want to search in English, you should write down "Mehmet the Conquerer" or "Mehmet II."

There are two major reasons that the Byzantines hated the Turks and they are both fairly straightforward.

1) Land: The Byzantine Empire was based in Anatolia and extended into the Levant, Mesopotamia, North Africa, and the Balkans. The Turkish Empires like the Seljuqs and the Ottomans conquered this territory and similarly established Anatolia as their base of operations. When any two different ethnic groups want to control the same piece of land, it breeds conflict

2) Religion: The Byzantines considered Constantinople to be the most important seed of Orthodox Christianity and the Byzantine Empire was the defender of the Christian Faith in the Middle East. The Turks were Muslim and there was much religious hatred on both sides. The difference between the Turks and the Byzantines was that the Turks begrudgingly allowed Christians to live in their empire as long as they paid humiliating taxes whereas the Byzantines refused to let Muslims contaminate (in their view) their country and despoil the religious purity.

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.

There apparently will have been/will be 8 "empires" throughout time..... the Egyptian, Assyrian, Babylonian, Medo-Persian, Greek, Roman, Turkish/Ottoman, then the 8th to be ruled by the Antichrist ....... The first 5 had already fallen when John wrote Revelations which states "7 mountains, 5 have fallen, one is (the Roman), the other is not yet come"......

The Roman Empire was divided into east and west portions with finally falling entirely in 1453 by the Turks, i.e. the Turkish/Ottoman Empire (which no longer exists since 1909).....One theory is that the Turkish/Ottoman will be the empire that will be revived, thus also referring to/including the Roman Empire......as the empires evolved, they conquered the previous empire .....Turkey as the 7th empire finally conquered the Roman Empire but no longer exists. To be considered an "empire" in the Bible, each empire had to have rule over Jerusalem and these are the 8 that will have or have had this rule. All Bible prophecy is Jerusalem-centered, that's why a lot of land mass on the globe is not mentioned or referred to.

The Ottoman Empire was Islamic with Muhammad as the founder, the Turkish caliphate was abolished in 1923 and they are supposedly awaiting return of the caliphate.....Bible theory is that Turkey will likely invade Israel with involvement of at least 3 other nations in the area.....
