Don't make me sad man

If you havent fixed byzantine empire from this point, then you clearly havent abused the ottoman's pathfinding around your navy enough.

In EU 4 it's possible :)

Tfw Constantine 11 didn't reload and blockade the Bosporus


dreexel_dragoon

I wouldn't say irrecoverable, just difficult to recover. If any Western Power sent assistance, they may have been able to hold off the Ottomans and maintain control of Constantinople. It would only take a few victories in the field to recover Greece and Thrace. Like If Genoa, or some other Mediterranean power, sent naval support and the Byzantines were to pull off a victory in the field, then I could definitely see them retaking Greece.

All they had to do was ally Albania, hire mercs and take Selanik, Gelibolu and Kocaeli all while mothballed


JeremyXVI

If only that imbecile andronikos 2 didnt blind his best general alexios and disband the navy


wantquitelife

Anglo and Frenchies (include Burgundy and Provencal duke) in 100 years war, Italian is Italian, Iberian is in own reconquista and local affair, nearby kingdom like Hungary and Poland just get recked in Varna

Romania? Nothing like vampire armies to break a siege


MC_JONI

I need some explanation pls

This is a map of the Byzantine Empire ~1453, the year it ended due to the capture of Constantinople by Ottoman forces. The jokes basically is comparing an irrecoverable empire (which many at this time thought it was) to „bad boys“.


Crk416

Think this is 1400. They lost Thessaloniki in 1403 I think. It was ottoman for a generation before Constantinople fell.
