As part of our ongoing series of historical video-maps, we present ‘The Great Turkish War,’ from Youtube creator Ollie Bye. The following video shows the changing front lines of the Great Turkish War. While not particularly well know today, the Great Turkish War was a critical turning point in Western history and marked the end of Ottoman expansion into Europe. The Battle of Vienna, one of the opening exchanges of the war, is similarly considered one of the most important battles in Western history and the key turning point in the 300 years of conflict between the Holy Roman Empire and the Ottoman Empire.
