Ottoman Empire
Losing a big part of its influence in the Balkans, Asia and Egypt, the Ottoman Empire has begun to slowly reform. The fruit of these reforms is yet to be seen in this period.
In the time, when huge armies of centralized stated fought each other in Europe, the mostly feudal Turkish army lost every time it gave a big battle to another Great Power, and relied mostly on its remoteness and fortifications to defend its territory. Units
