NO. The Ottomans captured Jerusalem from the Mamluks in 1517. The major city that the Ottomans conquered in 1453 was Constantinople, which was taken from the Byzantine Empire.
The turning point in Greek history is the fall of the Byzantine Empire. After this event, the Greeks lost everything they had before to the Ottomans. They stay for 400 years under the Ottoman Empire and in 25 Mars 1821 they won their independence. A major fact is that Greek kept their Orthodox religion and they didn't change it during the 400 years under Ottoman Empire.
Constantinople was seen as a bulwark against an Islamic conquest of Europe. Its fall to the Ottomans meant that the Ottomans would soon conquer the Balkans and pose a direct threat to major Central and Eastern European States such as Russia, Poland, and the Austrian Empire.
The death of Mongol leader Möngke Khan in 1259 marked a major turning point in the history of the Mongol Empire. The ensuing power struggle between his successors, Kublai Khan and Ariq Böke, led to a split in the empire and the beginning of a long period of division and decline. This event ultimately contributed to the fragmentation and eventual downfall of the mongol empire.

The Ottomans first conquered the town of Bursa in 1299, marking the beginning of their expansion as a significant power in the region. This conquest established Bursa as the first major capital of the Ottoman Empire. Following Bursa, the Ottomans continued to expand their territory, capturing key areas in Asia Minor and the Balkans.
The Ottoman Empire attacked Constantinople in 1453. Led by Sultan Mehmed II, the Ottomans laid siege to the city, which was the capital of the Byzantine Empire. After a prolonged siege, Constantinople fell on May 29, marking the end of Byzantine rule and a significant expansion of Ottoman territory. This event is often considered a pivotal moment in history, leading to the rise of the Ottoman Empire as a major power in the region.
The Ottomans came into contact with the Eastern Orthodox Christian Church to the north, particularly through their interactions with the Byzantine Empire and later with various Slavic nations. This relationship was marked by both conflict and coexistence, as the Ottomans expanded into territories populated by Orthodox Christians. The fall of Constantinople in 1453 significantly influenced the dynamics between the Ottoman Empire and Eastern Orthodox communities. Additionally, the Ottomans also encountered Catholicism in regions such as Hungary and Poland.
