Imagine living in the Ottoman Empire bros… Would it be beautiful?
>>18755010The true successors to the Eastern Roman Empire, and by extension, the Roman Empire. Administrative structures, universities, baths, architectural styles, culture and religion were all either obtained from the Eastern Romans or developed in tandem with them, and were all propagated throughout the Ottoman period. Public baths, free food and water from imarets and sebils (public mosque kitchens and dispensers, respectively), schools (madrasas) built on or near mosque complexes, and Ottoman Peace, a period of relative stability during the 16th and 17th centuries that lasted nearly as long as the ancient Pax Romana.>inb4 Holy Roman Empire and Russian EmpireThose are quite literally larp, zero succession outside of a religious institution wanting to use the Roman label to legitimize themselves. They don’t even have the baths, let alone any significant period of peace throughout Europe for any longer than ten years, too vulgar apparently.
>>18755089no dancing boys today, ozgluk
Yes, I imagine so.
>>18755089Don't forget they ruled Egypt too so they wuz kangz too.>ib4 nooo it's the Indian-Euros/Semitic Gayreeks and Arabs onlyWhat are you gonna do wewuzzer faggots? Learn from the Palestinians and know the master.
>>18755010No empire of a similar size had a worse military record
>>18755010Depends on your position
>live in impoverished shithole village where your son is abducted, converted to Pisslam, and inducted into Janissaries>each military campaign the army takes most of your food>you must bow before the roach governor or be cut down with sword>once thriving towns reduced to pitiful shitholes visited by routine famine and epidemic whose few inhabitants are so malnourished and stunted you cannot even call them human anymoreno.
>>18755182Ok but why did you photoshop a Georgian?
>>18755227>hE Is gEoRgIaNHis ethnicity is Turk mongol but keep coping
>>18755196So how did the Turks get such a large empire?
>>18755854Fighting balkan microstates and arabs
>>18755902>Byzantine empire>Hapsburgs>Russian empire>Polish Lithuanian commonwealth >Mamluk Egypt>all of Catholic europe>balkan microstatesThe turks hardly fought arabs. Whitey tried to stop the Turk when he was Ascendent, like in Varna and Nicopolis. But was utterly crushed everytime. It wasn't until the white man and their treasured Jewish mminorities developed military technology that could overwhelm Turkoman Zeal. It was also mostly the Russians to finally crush the turk
>>18755905They have a negative record against poland (lol) and lost the most important fights against the habsburgs - byzantines were a city state by then
>>18755909Coping about "military technology" when the turks were unique for mass adoption firearms in the balkans.
>>18755905The Byzantine empire was already extinguished by the 4th crusade. Whatever it was the Turks conquered was some Greek LARP.
>>18755909Who do you think reduced the Byzantines to said provincial status? The Ottoman state started as the warband of osman on the frontier of Turkish anatolia and the Grekoid. You think states just land into the world with 100k warriors and cities? >uh negtative KDA against polandWhat is this aurist glasses wearing bullshit cope lmfao. You arent serious
>>18755914This is what the Byzantine Empire looked like at the very dawn of the Ottomans existence.
>>18755917You think the ottomans "spawned" with that much territory? Again, you're a retard.
>>18755923This is what it looked like about 30 years earlier before the Ottomans became properly independent of the Seljuks.As you can see, the vast majority of the land they lost in those 30 years, was lost to Serbia. Whatever the original Ottomans were doing was just Turk on Turk violence
>>18755927Whats the coast of the Sea of Marmara looking like there? And regardless of how much you cope saying " oh but grekoid was low hp" the greeks had 100x the resources. They were just bitches and weak. It litteraly was just Osman and his bros. The Ottomans almost exclusively expanded in christian territory in their first 2 centuries if existence really.
>>18755931Anon said their history is conquering Balkan microstates and Arabs. The Byzantines, at any stage of the Ottomans existence, were absolutely a Balkan micro state.If you want to be doing some anti-Greek Turk LARP just glaze the Seljuks instead of coping about conquering a Montana cattle ranch worth of territory over 200 years
>>18755936If a state only conquers microstates I dont think it can get very large. Ebery state starts fighting near peers. Rome started fighting tribals in central italy... Saying "oh but grekoid was low up n shiet" is just whitey seethe and embarrassing
>>18755938Right, thing is, once they started having to fight non-microstate evrobvlls like Austria and Poland, they started getting their ass whooped and ultimately reduced to relying on Anglo-French life support to save them from getting stretched by Russians
>>18755940How do you think the turks conquered Hungary? Christ youre just a butthuet retard. Stop posting lmfao
>>18755942By that logic the Greeks reconquered Smyrna because they controlled it for a hot minute. Goes without saying this was a big L and they quickly lost, same for the Turks in Hungary
>>18755942They vassalized a third of it and not for very longVenice and spain were controlling parts of ottoman greece and north africa
>>18755943Anon the Hungarian kingdom of whitey was crushed. The king died and the turks Took the carnation basin, the scraps siesed by the Judeo-Austrian. Look up the battles I mentioned previously. Yes I've been bombastic in my replies, but I've never lied. You're just lying. Embarassing and pathetic, bob...
>>18755947And then they got their ass whooped by Austria and Poland and literally never recovered. QED
>>18755949A century later, kevin. From 1420 to 1660 the turk had every white boy trembling. Its indisputable. Far cry from the broke negro cope of turks just "lucking" themselves into an empire larger than the eastern roman one ever was. Its okay, hunter.
>>18755952Balkan microstates perhaps but once they had to face real white bvlls even B list powers like Poland were easily clapping Turkish cheeks.
>>18755952They were called the sick man of Europe lol
>>18755958No they didn't. Battle of Varna had the King of All eastern europe dead and his skull paraded in the Turkish camp. You litteraly know nothing. Your attempts at insult ring hollow for your ignorance.A good insult needs an element of truth, you're just screeching like a baboon. Reminder that Monkeys have no lips
>>18755961Do pakistanis such as yourself have big lips? Maybe it's the AASI DNA?
>>18755962Lips are a defining trait that separates man from ape. Ergo, whitey closer to monkey
>>18755961Hilariously, often even Balkan microstates were too much for them
>>18755961Why were the great kangs murad, mehmed ii were humiliated by skanderbeg for the duration of his lifetime while being constantly numerically superior?
Hilarious to watch most of these replies. It’s like a Scythian, Germanic or Persian defender talking about how Roman Empire is le weak for losing a few border conflicts. Pax Romana doesn’t matter to them, and neither did Ottoman Peace.
>>18755985>GermanicThe people that gaped the Roman Empire?
>>18755985No it's more equivalent to if romans mogged by carthage, mithridatics and persians always
