The Great Turkish War: 1683–1699
During the second half of the 17th century, the Ottoman Empire was invigorated by the leadership of the Koprulu family. The third in that line, Kara Mustapha, set the most ambitious objective of all: to impose Turkish dominance over Central Europe. He planned to begin by taking Vienna, the city the Turks called the “golden apple.” Here is our analysis of his failure.

  • The War in Nagorno-Karabakh Late 2020 saw a war between Armenia and Azerbaijan over Nagorno-Karabakh.

The Azeri are loath to let territory slip from their grasp regardless of the ethnicity of those living there.

In turn, the ability to dominate the maritime communications of an enemy is called “command of the seas.”
