In April of 1453, Mehmet's army arrived at the walls of the legendary city. The few thousand defenders of the city managed to put up a valiant defense from behind the massive fortifications. But in the end, the constant bombardment repeated attempts at going over or through the walls and an ingenious strategy that involved carrying 70 Ottoman ships over two kilometers of land and into the city's harbor all led to eventual capture. On May 29, 1453, a Muslim army finally conquered the legendary city. Mehmet, thereafter known as the conqueror, made the city his capital. The Ottoman Empire no longer had a thorn in its side and Mehmet's fame spread throughout the Muslim world as the powerful ruler of an upstart empire that finally fulfilled the 800-year-old prophecy. At this point, there was no doubting the Ottoman Empire's position atop the Muslim world.
