Byzantine-Ottoman Turk War of 1329-38

The Ottomans effect the gradual capture of the remaining East Roman (Byzantine) cities in northwestern Anatolia, defeating the imperial forces in battles at Pelekanon and Philokrene.

"In fact, if we revert to history, we shall find that the women who have distinguished themselves have neither been the most beautiful nor the most gentle of their sex."

― Mary Wollstonecraft, A Vindication... (1792)
