What I learned this week

This week I learned that the first big event that happend was The Byzantine Empire, then the Crusades. Then the Christian failure, then the Ottomans emerge. Then the Ottomans sack Constantinople in 1453. Then that the Byzantine Empire came to an end after 1,000 years. I learned that the Ottomans Empire was enormous, from Central Europe to much of the Middle East and Africa. 50 million people were under control of the Ottomans. The Ottomans allowed other religions, besides muslim, but they must pay a price. But in the 1700's, The Ottomans begin to lose their land.
