The Ottoman Empire simultaneously put fear and awe into Europe. An Empire that lasted for over 600 years with a military machine that made other armies tremble for much of its history.
This series will cover the Rise and Fall of the Ottoman Empire, starting with its founder Osman I. His life shrouded in a combination of myth and few contemporary facts. We do know he lead his tribe and expanded their territory to include parts of the Byzantine Roman Empire. This is his story...and the story of the empire he founded.
In this part 2 we look at the Sultan Orhan and his rise after his father Osman's death. He would battle with the Byzantine Empire and drive them from the asian side of the divide. In the process he would lay the foundation for the Ottoman Empire.
