With Constantinople conquered and the Serbian fortress of Novo Brdo captured, Sultan Mehmed II turns his attention toward his next great objective: Belgrade.


In this episode, we explore the political maneuvering, military preparations, and simmering tensions that set the stage for one of the most consequential confrontations of Mehmed’s reign. As the young sultan seeks to expand Ottoman power deeper into Europe, Hungary and its defenders prepare to stand in his way.


The road to Belgrade is paved with ambition, rivalry, and the looming prospect of a bloody showdown.
