The Conquest of Constantinople in 1453 marked a pivotal moment in history when the Ottoman Empire, under the leadership of Sultan Mehmed II, triumphed over the Byzantine Empire, resulting in the fall of the ancient city of Constantinople. This historic event reshaped the geopolitical landscape of Europe and Asia Minor, leading to the emergence of Istanbul as the Ottoman capital and a center of cultural and economic significance. The siege and eventual conquest of Constantinople had profound implications for the spread of Islam, the transition from the medieval to the early modern era, and the routes of global trade. Its impact on history, politics, and religion continues to be a subject of scholarly interest and a key milestone in understanding the evolution of civilizations and empires.
