Most of Bosnia along the upper Bosna…
1463 CE
Most of Bosnia along the upper Bosna and Drina Rivers has gradually fallen to the Ottomans.
After a series of bloody battles, the Turks bring the area under their control in 1463, but the Bosnians continue sporadic rebellion in some areas.
The Turks execute the last Kotromanic king, Stephen Tomashevic, and incorporate Bosnia into their empire.
The Bosnians, however, continue sporadic rebellion in some areas.
Many of the Bogomils, numerous in Bosnia in this and the previous century, adopt Islam.
