ITT: we discuss the greatest empire in history

I was gonna ask why you have the Ottomans in France and Spain but then I noticed Iceland

>>3227912
Just because they didn't drink and their soldiers could out match the Austrians who drank at least two litres of wine a day doesn't mean that they had the intelligence to manage an empire.

The Ottomans were a shit show. They got tips from the 'great' empires of the Ganges.

Take your memes back to whatever grade it is in your country where you are 15 years old and a wannabe nerd that everyone else in your school hates. Enjoy your cold toast for lunch.

>>3227912
> 1 slave raid by a Dutch mercenary constitutes Ottoman annexation of Iceland.

Woah

>>3227912
Lol why is this map literally retarded

>>3227912
That doesn't look like Roman Empire

>>3227912
I like the Ottomans byt this map is shit, probably a decent map for eu campaign

>lasted nowhere as long as the Arsacid, Sassanid, Roman, or Byzantine Empire
>at its greatest extent its smaller them all four
>T*rk keeps using inflated shoops of this
Imagine being a roach and having to do this shit every day to try and validate your invalid existence.

Why do Turks on the internet think that they are literally gods on earth and that no country can ever defeat Turkey? I want a war to happen between Russia and turkey, just to hear Turks on the internet become enraged once they lose.

>>3229344
For a modern Empire they lasted quite long, even the mighty Russian Empire lasted not as long as the Ottomand

>>3229354
Impossible, they're pretty close now

I'm glad your filth is going to Germany. We can Nuke it and defeat two of the Earth's great evils in one go.
The only downside is that T*rks are immune to the fallout

I know op's pic is a meme but it always gets me that Iceland is green, I'm surprised that whoever made it didn't make Rome green as well just for fun

When the Ottomans is declining and it's centuries ago when Europeans are very hostile to each other, I don't see they're going to war each other these days

>>3229494
>Greeks have literally defaulted on their debts over 5 times and were even kicked out of the Latin League due to their financial incompetence with their own economy
How the fuck do you even manage this?

>>3229598

Nope.

The Empire was basically declining after 1683

Ottomans are just over-rated. If your empire isn't dominant after merely two centuries or less, then you are always shit.

They came from the Steppe, like most vermin, and marched around, gobbling up some clay. Soon they became a threat, and the crusades were called, but the Crusaders thought it more prudent to attack Jerusalem.
Things were mostly under control, until Meme Man Enrico Don(g)dolo ruined Constantinople forever. Soon, the Germans sold T*rks arms and they overtook the Roman Empire.

They declined, because they were a bunch of savages driven by stealing shit. Once all the conquests stopped, they immediately became retarded and fell.

>>3230090
No, roach.

What does this have to do with anything? Ottomans were never a superpower anyway so what is the point?

>>3230388
See your own post here >>3229764
And the Ottomans was probably the strongest empire in the 15 to 16th century

The Romans may have created a desert and called it empire, but the British found a desert and called it empire.

>Only been a superpower in 1700-1900
Wrong.
>Even lasted shorter than the Ottomans
Who cares, they raped the Ottomans in every war hard.
>dissolved before them
Nope, even after "Tsarist" Russia ended, Russia both today and as the Soviet Union still scared and dominated Turkey. Try again, Memet.
>Americans
>technically not an empire
We are a hegemony, you faggot and regardless we've been a superpower since the 20th century.
>I said modern empires
Who gives a shit, your roach existence is shit compared to antiquity or modern times standards.

Entire world hasn't been discovered in 16th century, Ottomans were superpower back then, you'dd be pissing your pants everytime you hear their name

>>3230851
Can you give any argument to corroborate your claims? Russian Empire dissolved before the Ottomans, that's fact and soviet union is an insult to Tsarist Russia
And also I'm not a Turk burger, I just like the Ottomans

>>3232641
Can you stop being such a disingenuous liar, Memet?

>>3232692
Not an argument, cletus

Anyone read "Beauty's Punishment" / "Beauty's Release" by Anne Rice?
It's basically an eroticization of the Ottoman sex slave trade.

>>3232700
Not an argument, cockroach.
