Do you cry when you remember Constantinople fell?

[BleakAsh]

Turning Hagia Sophia into a mosque again is sad. It should’ve stayed as a museum

Wasn't it a church.

Because I think that a museum is great for any culture and they can learn something about history.
There are over 3000 mosques in Instanbul and that’s more than enough

its still a museum tho.. it just looks like a mosque

It does not seems religion discussion :) like how do turks have istanbul :)

it is nationalism issue than religious issue. Also, big history major impact.

it is not surprising to me since I have seen YouTube comments on some angry European nationalist folks hate Judaism, Christianity, and Islamic because it is never here in Europe . Back then in europe, everyone and their mothers are pagans.

Some metal musicians folks want to burn the churches like Norway church building .

Well here is an idea - you guys just stop responding fuming the flames?

Imma gonna go drink too now and return to post a drunk troll thread like kinyagi and swalhala

History can lend us blunt lessons

 

[uyuu]

...wait is this a war between religions thing?

 

[Seatonnes]

Even old New York was once New Amsterdam
Why they changed it I can't say
People just liked it better that way
Istanbul was Constantinople
Now it's Istanbul, not Constantinople
Been a long time gone, oh Constantinople
Why did Constantinople get the works?
That's nobody's business but the Turks

God forbid that I should live as an Emperor without an Empire. As my city falls, I will fall with it. Whosoever wishes to escape, let him save himself if he can, and whoever is ready to face death, let him follow me ​

Constantine then sent a response to the sultan, the last communication between a Byzantine emperor and an Ottoman sultan:

As to surrendering the city to you, it is not for me to decide or for anyone else of its citizens; for all of us have reached the mutual decision to die of our own free will, without any regard for our lives.​

According to Critobulus, the last words of Constantine before he charged at the Ottomans were "the city is fallen and I am still alive".


I cry every morning.

I'm not quite familiar with history but which side oppressed the citizens/people less? Maybe i'll side with those...i'm not that religious, since being a good person is already difficult for me lol.

They were both Absolute Monarchies that practiced slavery and empire building.... When it comes to nations, you really aren't going to find any good guys by modern standards in the 15th century.

Both suck equally
