Hittite empire collapse in 1200 B.C., by Phrygians and Lydian's. The Persian empire

occupied the area in the 6th century B.C. giving way to the romans empire, then later

Byzantine Empire. The ottoman Turks first appeared in the early 13th century,

subgatting Turkish and Mongol bands pressing against the eastern borders of the

Byzantine and making the Christian Balkan states their vassals. They gradually spread

through the near east and Balkans, capturing constant pole in 1453 and storming the

gates of Vienna two centuries later. At its height, the ottomans empire stretched from

was not only one of the most powerful empires in the history of the Mediterranean

region, but it generated a great cultural out pouring of Islamic art architecture, and

literature.
