1516 CE to 1527 CE
The expanding Ottoman Empire had overpowered the Balkan Peninsula in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries.
Present-day European Turkey and the Balkans, among the first territories conquered, are used as bases for expansion far to the West during the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries.
The Ottoman Turks have by 1517 conquered Persia, Syria, Palestine, the Hejaz and Egypt itself, in the process destroying the Mamluks, who have failed to adopt field artillery as a weapon in any but siege warfare.
