AP WH Chapter 19 PPT

The Ottoman Empire expanded significantly between 1500 and 1750 CE, establishing control over Anatolia, the Balkans, and Constantinople by the 1300s. In the early 1500s, the empire added Egypt and Syria, and the ports of Algeria and Tunis joined voluntarily. Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent further expanded the empire in the 1500s, taking Belgrade, Rhodes, and laying siege to Vienna. The Ottomans also fought with Venice for over two centuries as it sought to control the Eastern Mediterranean and Indian Ocean trade routes.
