Uncovering the Insane Rivalry Between the Ottomans and Timor | Truth the Rise and Fall of Dynasties

Constantinople itself was besieged by the Thunderbolt, although the Ottomans had neither the technology nor the numbers to bring that city to its knees yet. Even without that imperial city, the Ottomans were one of the most powerful empires in Europe and the Muslim world. That power attracted the attention of another Muslim ruler seeking to be the next great world conqueror. Timor, a Mongol ruler whose domain included Central Asia and Persia, sought to reestablish Mongol authority in Anatolia in the face of Ottoman expansion. Although Timor was a Muslim, his actions in war did not differ from his non-Muslim ancestors who had ravaged the region 100 years before. He wanted to bring back the Mongol Empire founded by Genghis, which meant the transcontinental Ottoman state would have to be eliminated. #history #kuruluşosman #books #mystery #osmanlıdevleti
