- In 1300, the Ottoman Turks
were just a small tribe in western Anatolia. In 1400, they were
the most powerful state in the Balkans and Asia Minor. They captured
Constantinople in 1453. About 1550, they had conquered most of
the Middle East, Hungary and besieged Vienna. In 1600, the empire
was one of the largest and wealthiest in the world, stretching
from the Danube in the North, the Sahara in the south, Mesopotamia
in the east and the Atlas Mountains in the west. Now, it is your
turn to try.
