      The Byzantine rulers seem to be the biggest idiots in history.
      1. John V has to be a vassal because of previous emperors' idiocy.
      2. His son Andronikos doesn't like this, and deposes his father because of it. Loses, and gets half blinded. Then he goes to the guy he doesn't like being the vassal of, lends an army, deposes his father and gives his true enemy a highly important peninsula as a reward, as well as sparking war with Venice when he gives away Tenedos to the Genoese.
      3. His father lends another Turkish army to depose his son once again. Succeeds, and gives away the last Byzantine holding in Anatolia to their truest enemies ever.
      So. What was gained? The title of emperor shifted from father to son, and back to father. Aka, nothing.
      What was lost? Gallipoli, Tenedos and Philadelphia. And Constantinople was besieged, and the weak Byzantine empire is now at war with Venice, and has no power, so it simply has to sit and wait to be attacked.
      I follow KG, History Marche, and several other channels, and my impression is that besides a small collection of competent generals and emperors, the Byzantine leadership was the most incompetent in the entire history of the world, when comparing to expectations given Byzantium's wealth and power.

    This channel consistently delivers the highest quality history videos I’ve seen. Appropriate music that never distracts, excellent visuals and graphics, and narration that always holds my attention (despite my very short attention span). I will say this - the reason I didn’t subscribe to the channel sooner is because of the channel’s name - “Kings and Generals.” I was looking for a world history channel that covers ALL facets of history and is not restricted to any specific time period(s). A very “broad” world history channel, in other words. Thankfully, much more than just specific “kings” and “generals” is discussed here. In fact, I am not sure this channel has any (self-imposed) constraints. Are there any topics, geographical areas, time periods and/or people that you WON’T cover? I’m curious. Anyway, this is another great video (though only 20 minutes long) and thank you for continually providing this middle American (Iowa) old man with new, thought-provoking history lessons. I’ve learned a lot.

    As the fourteenth century wore on, the Ottomans continued to expand into territory that had not seen Muslim armies since the Umayyad raids on Constantinople almost 700 years before. In the 1350s, the Ottomans crossed the Dardanelles Straits into Europe for the first time. Taking advantage of Byzantine disunity in the region, Sultan Orhan, and later his son, Murad I. were able to firmly establish Ottoman authority in parts of Thrace. The Turks, with their nomadic history, managed to easily move entire families and tribes into the new European frontier and establish new towns throughout the conquered lands. This huge demographic move- ment gave the Ottomans stability in an area that would have oth- erwise been a challenge to manage.

      @@buritekin429 LOL he was Timur, not Bayezid, who was arrogant. He asked Bayezid to send his son hostage and become his vassal. If there were no betrayals in the battle, he would still be defeated, even though it was twice as much. You leave pan-turkism and look at history objectively.

      If you check the Catalan Atlas, all the beyliks had 6 point star flags (not banners). The history of Anatolian Beyliks split into 2, first phase and second phase. First phase is the arrival of Turks into Anatolia and poweful Seljuk generals and Beys carving out their own territory. Seconf phase begins with the fall of Sultanate of Rum and withdrawal of Ilkhanate Mongols from Anatolia. A VERY VERY weird thing is that, first phase beyliks had nothing jewish about them, but with the second phase beyliks suddenly all their flags are 6 point stars. Exceptions are Ottoman, Eretna and Aydin beyliks. The rest had it. Karaman, Teke, Menteşe, Candar, Hamid etc. Also Ramazan and Dulkadir (also second phase beyliks) had arabic writings on their flags because beys were landed by the Mamluke sultanate so they followed their coat of arms traditions.

      @@muhammadadeel8639 Selçuk himself (ancestor and founding father of Seljuk dynasty) served under Khan Manasseh II ''the Kind'', who was the Khan of Khazars. Before all of that, Kimek, Pecheneg, Oghuz and Cuman were tributaries of Khazaria, not necessarily direct vassals but paying tribute rather. Only because Khazaria had Ashina family as ruling class, or they've claimed to be. Who were the last remaining members of Gokturks. Later on Khazar noblity converting to Judaism (supposedly) under the rule of Khan Bulan, Oghuz, Pecheneg, Kimek and Cuman formed a coalition and attacked them. Its such a sad thing that no details of those events are written. I keep asking and thinking why and how?

    C'mon. Those Ottomans are trying way too hard with a 2 directional conquest. Either focus on the Balkans, or Anatolia. Not both.
    There is no way they are going to submit both regions like that. Mark my words.
