Kings and Generals began remaking its animated historical documentary on the history of the Ottoman empire with the first season in which we will cover the Rise of the Ottoman Empire from the humble beginnings as a small Turkic Beylik to the Fall of Constantinople 1453 covering all the major battles including Nicopolis, Kosovo, Ankara, Varna, Rovine and much more, as the Ottoman sultans fought the Eastern Roman, Serbian, Bulgarian empires, as well as Venice, the Timurids, Hungary, Wallachia, various crusades and more (). The second season will start with the events that happened after the Fall of Constantinople in 1453, as the Ottomans rebuilt the city and reformed their empire. The wars in Europe continued, though, with the siege of Belgrade in 1456 (). Over the next decades, the Ottomans snuffed out the last remnants of the Roman empire in Trebizond and Morea, while fighting the Skanderbeg rebellion (), before the rise of Vlad Tepes Dracul the Impaler of Wallachia and the Night attack at Targoviste in 1462 (). Still, Mehmed continued relentless campaigns against Genoa, Bosnia, Albania, and Venice, amid a fractured and distracted Christendom (), and fought another battle against Skanderbeg at Krujë, while in the East, a new enemy in the form of the Akkoyunlu and its sultan Uzun Hasan threatened the Ottoman dominance over Anatolia leading to the battle of Otlukbeli in 1473.
