1397 CE

Bayezid, after his victory at Nikopol, contents himself with raiding Hungary, Wallachia, and Bosnia.

He conquers most of Albania and forces the remaining northern Albanian lords into vassalage.

A new, halfhearted siege of Constantinople is undertaken but lifted in 1397 after Emperor Manuel, Bayezid’s vassal, agrees that the sultan should confirm all future emperors.

Bayezid is soon called back to Anatolia to deal with continuing problems with the Ottomans’ Turkish rivals, taking with him an army composed primarily of Balkan vassal troops, including Serbs led by his vassal, Prince Stefan Lazarevic; he is never to return to the Balkans.
