Prince Eugene's baptism of fire ️ The Great Siege of Buda, 1686 ️ Part 1

Thanks for watching! Please subscribe and check the bell button, it greatly helps the channel.
🚩 The Second Turkish Siege of Vienna in 1683 was followed by a Habsburg offensive, during which Prince Eugene of Savoy became its foremost luminary. The siege of Buda in 1686 was fought between the Holy League and the Ottoman Empire, ending almost 150 years of Turkish rule. Although Eugene played a minor role in the siege, it was during these early encounters of the Long Turkish War that he made a name for himself and rose through the ranks.

My childhood hero - still❤❤
Thank you for this series

How

Can I just say, the intro music is 🔥

Eugene was a brilliant tactician incomparable to any other commander of his time.

Prince Eugene was the greatest military mind ever to come from europe

By the middle of June 1686 the siege had begun. On July 27 the Holy League's army started a large-scale attack, which was repulsed with a loss of 5,000 men. A tercio of 300 Spanish troops spearheaded the assault of the city walls.
Today, a monument in Budapest marks the spot where Spanish troops breached the walls to re-take the city from the Ottomans.

Were the spaniards the first who climbed the walls.... WHY YOU ANGLOSAXONS DONT MENTION THAT , MORRONS¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡

This is my sacrifice to the algorithm, as requested.

Make a video about something new like ZRYNI MIKLOS

All euroup vs ottoman

Worth remembering. The janissaries were kidnapped from the subjugated Christian populations, r**ed and brainwashed into being muslims...

👍👍👍

Wow 🔥

The capitol was still Constantinople. Or Konstantiyye

What he could have done for the French had they judged on merit and not DEI qualities

For the algorithm

Crazy that Louis IV could have employed both Turenne and Eugene in his lifetime. That's like Napoleon having Charles and Davout.

Battle

"Europe is divided"

It always has been 😭

It's a big deal

magnificent Ottoman Empire

So... Eugene served the Duke of Lorraine, as did James FitzJames, the Duke of Berwick, whose name was Churchill (his mother's name) or Stuart (his father's name). The Duke went on to serve Louis XIV.

Where is the following battle the 1688 capture of Belgrade?

Prinz Eugen: you better not name an anime girl after a ship named after me!!!

Azur Lane: did someone say something

prince eugene...
While the Ottoman army was in the process of crossing the Tisa River over the makeshift wooden bridge it had built itself, and only half of the soldiers had crossed to the other shore and the army was divided into two and could not get a war order, it could be considered a very good idea for him to think of gaining victory by making a sudden raid. But this is not a battle that no one can think of or carry out. It does not follow from this battle that Prince Eugene was a great commander. I have no information about any other battles.

Terrible that Louis left this guy going...

They did not know Islam. (sacrifice comment).

It's not a great siege , it's a great defense...

awwesome depictions thanks for teaching us history before its repeated

dziękuję

When Prinz Eugen becomes a edler burschenschaftler….

Szanowny autor zapomnial wspomniec ze pod Wiedniem Turkow rozniosl polski krol Jan III Sobieski gdy w tym samym czasie ksiaze Eugen spieprzal do wujaszkow w Niemczech. Nie podoba mi sie takie pomijanie historii bo zwyciestwo polskiego krola otworzylo droge do wygnania Turkow z Europy. Do tej pory w Wiedniu nie wolno postawic pomnika polskiego krola bo imigranci tureccy protestuja uwazajac pomnik za reklame popierania zabijania Turkow.

Alexander the Great in a wig

Despite Napoleón appreciation Prince Eugene story Is amazing, not only as a soldier bit later as stateman and entrepreneur, is sad history dont talk much about him

I clicked to learn about an underrated commander, ended up appreciating Abdi Pasha's tenacious defense

Love how we gloss over his brother choosing marrying a peasant girl over possibly being king. That’s a romance story right there haha.

algorithm

Dear Algorithm, please let everyone find this video, if they search for battle, Buda, Budapest, armies, history, török, történelem, felszabadítás, 150, huszár.
Thank you.

Thanks!

Prinz Eugen. A legendary commander, one I didn't know enough about.
I know a lot about the WW2 heavy cruiser named after him - a legendary lucky ship with an amazing reputation.
A fitting name for an awesome ship as she overcame the odds just like her namesake.

Why Eugen wasnt so glorified? Cause he stole valor of Sava Tekelija for one example..but austrian politics...

There are so many errors and biased statements that I would suggest removing the word history from your channel's name.

Pince Eugene's baptism of fire was at the Battle of Vienna in 1683.

In 1683 the Ottoman Empire had passed its zenith and was already in decay. The Ottoman economy / budget was based on expansion. But after 1566, the Ottoman Empire couldn't gain many valuable areas. And without French money, they hadn't been able to finance the second siege of Vienna.

"To relive the city from the Ottoman yoke", despite the fact that you should not use any judgmental remarks in history, at least in an Ottoman city you could practise any religious faith you wish. In the Habsburgian city, you have the free choice of being a Catholic or have a talk with the Inquisition. 🙄

70k against 13k in siege. we held it very well until the time comes

This siege is copy of Siege of Vienna 3 years earlier:

Siege of Vienna(1683):
Ottoman Army: 120.000
Defenders: 16.000
Result: City is almost captured after bloody 60 days of siege. Relief army saved the city.

Siege of Buda (1686)
Crusader Army: 100.000
Defenders: 13.000
Result: City is captured after 82 days of siege. Weak relief army was defeated during the siege.

Thanks!

England passed up on a heavy hitter haha.

you're telling us that Prince Eugene was the Pest of Buda
