In 1453, the fate of Constantinople hung on 53 days of siege by Ottoman Sultan Mehmed II. This episode dives into the specific military innovations and tactical decisions that brought down the Theodosian Walls: the giant bombard cast by Urban, the massive fleet dragged overland via a greased log road, the construction of the fortress Rumeli Hisarı, and the subterranean mining tunnels. We also examine the Byzantine defenders' desperate countermeasures under Emperor Constantine XI, the role of Giustiniani Longo's 700 Genoese soldiers, and the final breach at the Gate of St. Romanus. Meer details on the tactical genius and catastrophic failures that decided the fate of an empire. #FallofConstantinople #MehmedII #UrbanBombard #TheodosianWalls #ByzantineEmpire #OttomanEmpire #RumeliHisarı #GoldenHorn #GiustinianiLongo #ConstantineXI #Bosphorus #1453Siege #MiddleEast #MilitaryHistory #SiegeWarfare #History #FexingoHistory #MedievalHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
