The Ottoman Empire

A good survey course on the history of the Ottoman empire. It covers ~700 years of history from the pre ottoman Turkic states all the way to the collapse of the empire and the foundation of the modern republic of Turkey. With such a large scope the course does not have time to cover each topic in great depth, but what is presented gives you a good introduction to the history.

If you already have a good background in Ottoman history then this course might not cover anything new but I think that is to be expected from a survey course by the Great Courses.
