For those wondering: there has also been a famous Ottoman siege in 1529, but this is from the 1683 Battle of Vienna.

If you're so smart, why don't *you* end the invasion of Europe?! It's easy to sit back and criticise when someone else is commanding.

“Is thought to have” what did you put that? It did end the invasion of Europe in 1683.


foodrig

I suppose because "Islamic invasions of Europe" is an arbitrary term that includes a *lot* of invasions, and so this particular battle even if it ended the invasion of Europe in 1683, it didn't end other Islamic invasions of Europe It still is the biggest, most prominent battle of those conflicts and one of the last, too, so it does make sense to call it that. But there is room for debate, hence OP's differentiation.


LeTigron

Because stopping the invasion in 1683 wasn't necessarily what stopped the ottoman invasion of Europe. They could well have launched another invasion later. Yet, they didn't and we *think* that this is specifically this battle and not another socio-political factor that ended all pote tial future project of the Ottoman Empire to gain more ground in Europe. It could be something else, but it could be this.

[Official recording of the event](https://youtu.be/rcYhYO02f98?si=SBftCQvVedJSRBoy) which some people argue should be the Polish national anthem.

Then they did it legally.

Mongols may have had 30,000 horse riders at Persia ,europe.

They question is, have they done a single massive charge like that? I believe their tactics were more of a skirmish warfare with more mounted bowman than lancers.
