Timur against Bayezid - Battle of Ankara 1402 DOCUMENTARY

Timur's penchant for attacking Georgia before launching his expeditions is called securing one's flanks. Perhaps Timur thought the Kingdom of Georgia was still strong enough to cause trouble at his rear while he was off campaigning.

One huge difference between Chinggis Khaan and Tamerlane: Chinggis Khaan was an honorable sovereign while Timur, even at the height of his career, acted like a filthy bandit.

As someone from Uzbekistan, I take pride in the legacies of both the Timurid and Ottoman Empires. It's interesting to note that during conversations with Persians and many Turkish people, I've discovered that they too have a sense of pride and believe their respective empires were superior to others. For example, Persians often harbor historical grievances against Arabs and Turks due to past invasions, similar to how Turkish people may have negative views of Timur. However, it's essential to acknowledge that historical perspectives can vary. In my education, I was taught that Bayezid of the Ottoman Empire's actions may have provoked Timur to lead his army into conflict with the Ottomans."

For those who wonder why timur always raided georgia, because georgian king george VII never surrendered and kept fighting. Everytims when timur would left for major campaign somewhere georgia would attack timurid holdings and destroy all of garrisons timurids had in caucasus. Once georgians even attacked tabriz and destroyed timurid army there, so it was understandable why timur always raided georgia, to remove georgian ability to wage war. Guess he could not because moment after death of timur georgia went to fight against qara qoyunlu turkmen.
Timurs invasions of georgia deserves another video, its actually quite interesting history.

Muslim killing Muslim

Never thought I would, but I was rooting for the Ottomans the whole time.

In fact, it was the Anatolian lords who invited Timur to Anatolia.

I have come to realize TIMURID just love blood and fire and Bones of human beings......
If he was tested today he would called a Pyscho.........
There is different between him and Genghis Khan......
TIMURID was all over the place just love to see people miserable and afraid...😂
This Man is horrible

Timur never spared Georgia even if he undertook a morning walk in the west🥴

All. Are Turks

i guess he hated georgia

"The old Conqueror" 😂

bruh what did georgia do to timur lol

Too much trash talk and falsehood indo that do not associate with reality

Timur was a bloodthirsty monster that was only a muslim by name and a pig in actions. I'm sure he's in hell now.

On one side Timur Lan was making towers of muslim skulls and on other side was punishing non-muslims for not converting to Islam; what a paradox?

Turks OTTOMAN SAFEVİ TIMURSD HOLDEN ORDU ATTİLLA HÜLAGÜ METEHAN ...........................................

Because Trtars are Kıpchak Turks as Timur...

No History writes Emir Timur is beaten....For the Kıphack Başbug ot Turkistan...

Timur a great great grandson of genghis khan and chagathai khan was a great military leader. But his sacking of cities is the most horrible thing. Specially a country like georgia and it capital city of Tbilisi. Also the battle of Ankara one of the most decisive battles in early ottoman age. Also it led to the interregnum of ottoman sultanate which still expanding. Brilliant video. Animations are superb. We always appreciate your hard work and dedication towards these videos. A huge fan of you from Sri Lanka ❤️🇱🇰🤝🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🔥

So Beyezid is ant-man!😆

According to reliable sources, Temur was a wise man! He was not as cruel as he described today! He was a Muslim and had big respect to ISLAM. He also made Samarkand a scientific centre of that time!
After all, Temur was the greatest ruler among all the Turkic rulers. May Allah s.t. bless Him!
(It should also be admitted that he killed a lot of people, but which ruler did not do that at his time! It's very hard for a man to be perfect.)

Most underrated chad.

it was a mistake to confront Timur in Ankara where it is similar to Mongolian homeland and he knew the terrain better than Bayezid

Stefan was knight of Order of the Dragon. At the time in Europe he was one of most respected and skilled knights. There are records of French, German and other knights coming to him so he could proclaim them to knights.

Also another thing that is not mentioned and it was recorded in Ottoman scripts is that Stefan led three charges against Timur forces when they souranded Bayezid but couldn't break thru even with his heavy cav.

Alexander,Gengiz Khan,Amir Timur💨🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Nothing to doSomeone who doesn't know that Timur is Turkish, that her state is Turkish, that the language used is Turkish and that her soldiers are Turkmen :)

turk vs turk

ankara Messi?

the ottomans were better, but thing is they just got lots of rebellions mid war

Bizkim Mulki Turon . Amiri Turkistonmiz. Biz Turkning Bosh bo'g'ini Turkmiz. "SohibqironAmir Temur Ko'ragoniy".

The Irony is how Bayezid raised Serbian and Greek Devshirme children to counter the Turkic bureaucrats' opposition to him, in contrast to the current situation today, where you know, Turanism thing

what happened to Toqtamish after this? Are there more videos on him?

Crazy to think about how loyal Stefan was to Bayezid, despite both of their fathers (Lazar and Murad) having killed each other in battle.

Georgia: Exists
Timur: "...and I took that personally."

Lord of Ring battle ❤

I see Timur as a Warhammer fantasy Khorne Champion. Skulls for the Skull throne.

without mutiny, it's unlikely bayezid loses

Well done series of videos as always.

Do u have a playlist for Timur start to finish

Bayezid dont escaped

George VII was a good kijg. People critisize him for not submitting to Timur but if he did that we would lose christianity and thus our identity. It isnt said in this video but his army waged partisanic wars against timurids, in the final invasion Timur chased him to utmost west part of Georgia, but right when he almost had king cornered, he suddenly decided to recognize it as christian independent country only asking for it to become tributary but Timur very well knew George wouldnt pay him shit afterwards. We can tell how grudgefully Timur left our country since he sacked churches on his way while he himself had admitted Georgia as christian. He couldnt reach his goals. Georgia is country where Timur the Lame fully felt his "Lameness" 💪

Georgia : breathes
Timur : "Lend me your strengh god! I'm gonna put an and to this mans whole life !

Amir Timur Lenk was the greatest conqueror of all time.
Respect Uzbekistan 🇺🇿 from Pakistan 🇵🇰.

On the way back Stefan was granted the title of Despot by the Byzantine emperor.
