Ernst Gideon von Laudon takes over Belgrade…
October 1789 CE
Austrian forces occupy Serbia, and many Serbs fight in the Habsburg free corps, gaining organization and military skills.
The occupation is accompanied by emissaries of the Catholic Church, which seeks to convert the Orthodox Serbs, which will make the Serbs look to Russia for aid after the Ottomans regain the area in 1792.
