    🚩The Second Battle of Mohács was part of the 1683-1699 Great Turkish War, which pitted the Ottomans against one of the several “Holy Leagues” thrown together over the decades to try to counter them. The Battle of Mohacs was one of the turning points that swung the war in favour of the Habsburgs.

      I don’t think so. Napoleon himself, who is oftentimes cited by many to be the greatest general of all time, largely credits Eugene as one of the greatest generals of all time. He is oftentimes ranked amongst European leaders such as the Great Conde, Alexander, Bonaparte, Suvorov, Marlborough, Caesar, and Frederick.

    I don't want to be a party pooper with the subject of the video, but despite the importance of the arrival of Eugene of Savoy with his cavalry as support and his successes pushing back a more numerous cavalry; For me, the most decisive figure in the battle was Louis William the Margrave of Baden-Baden, because his resistance against the Sipahis and his flanking movement at the end of the battle precipitated the definitive defeat of the Ottomans, which is why for me it is the true MVP of the Second Battle of Mohacs.

The introduction of muskets into the front lines, but still having a significant amount of pikes and lancers, along with swords and shields still being in the equation. Also the idea that firearms weren't developed enough to be a clear better option than bows.

His army was much more capable and competent but you know the rest of story... After Zenta, Belgrade was the Ottoman outer outpost against Habsburgs until independent kingdom of Serbia established in 1878.

    • @SolidAvenger1290
      @SolidAvenger1290 8 місяців тому +1

      It's easy to interpret the unclear aspects of Eugene's role at the 2nd of Mohacs. Eugene and Maximillian II of Bavaria had almost a similar level of comradeship & strategy as to the late Duke of Marlborough later in Eugene's career. The Bavarians have to get most of the credit for saving the Habsburgs. Marlborough and Eugene shared a commitment to a pitched battle, and Eugene likely corresponded with Maximillian regarding the Ottoman advance & flanking cavalry.
      Late 17th & 18th-century warfare was dominated by fortifications, cautious maneuvers, and risk avoidance. European armies were immensely expensive state investments, and most generals were reluctant to expose such valuable assets to the destructive power of pitched battle.
      They understood that the most effective way to shift the military balance was to draw the enemy’s main forces into combat and destroy them. Both men (alongside Maximillian) were willing to take the risks usually inherent in trying to force a full-scale battle on open ground on a cautious, defensive-minded enemy. Hence, Frederick the Great credits Eugene as his mentor/teacher for successfully leading to the rise of his stardom as Prussia's King while being outnumbered & facing limited resources yet still being ambitious and later inspiration for Napoleon I's early career.
      Eugence's cool under fire, alongside waiting for the Bavarian-Austrian infantry to catch up, ensured that the Ottomans could not exploit another potential opening on their right flank. At the same time, William's cavalry held the Sipahi units back on the left flank.

    We (in Hungary) simply call the battle as the Battle of Nagyharsány.
    Not referring to it a the 2nd battle of Mohács. And indeed it was fought at Nagyharsány.
    ----
    BTW you do not need to separately pronounce the "y" after g, n or t in Hungarian. They are double consonants.
    "Gy" is simply pronounced similar to the beginning of "duel" in English.
    "Ny" is similar to "new" pronounced without saying a "u" sound.

      ​@@Hilltycoon It didn't led the destruction of Ottomans, Ottoman Empire collapsed in 1918 235 years later. It manifestated that Ottoman military couldn't compete with modern European armies anymore. The Defence of Vienna enabled to reconquerer of Hungaria by Austrians and Podolia by Poland. But Ottomans borders were very large (ergo population and resources were abundant still) even after Treaty of Karlowitz (1699). The Ottoman Empire withdrew from the stage of history because they could not carry out modernization. Otherwise, 235 years is long enough to recover.

    Yes, another very good showing by Eugene as he plays a key role in helping to win the battle for the Hapsbergs and continues his military apprenticeship against the Turks. Learning the skills of command and leadership, that would make him one of the ablest generals in Europe and alongside Marlborough. the dream team military powerhouse that humbled and brought the ambitions of the sun king low in the war of the spanish succession..

    Nice video. It's good to see also not that well known battles depicted. My biggest gripe with the video is the short scene with the report to Lorraine. The soldiers in the background look more as from the first half of the 30 Years War instead from the 1680s. As pictures are mighty that can lead to a false impression by some viewers.

    Sari means blond on turkish. He was Blond because many Pashas were Bosniak or Albanian descent including Sari Suleiman Pasha who was born in the Herzegovian Sanjak of the Bosnian Eyalet.

      ​@Le Austrian painter I wouldn't say that. Many of pashas were devshirme but ratio of Turk Pashas are close to 50% according to my estimation. For instance, famous Kara Mustafa Pasha was Turk and second important commander of Ottoman army in this battle Kara Mehmet Pasha was also Turk.
