Constantinople was conquered by the Ottoman Empire under the leadership of Sultan Mehmed II on May 29, 1453. The fall of the city marked the end of the Byzantine Empire and a significant shift in power in the region. Mehmed II's innovative military strategies and use of large cannons played a crucial role in breaching the city's formidable walls. The conquest is often considered a pivotal moment in history, leading to the rise of Ottoman dominance in southeastern Europe and the eastern Mediterranean.
