"Christianity is a religion of peace (as are the other Abrahamic faiths, like Islam and Judaism). Yet Christianity has a long, bloody history of warfare, in complete violation of the New Testament's teachings. Most interesting are the defensive acts of warfare carried out in the name of Christ. The battles on this list may have helped to preserve Christianity in their immediate area, but should the warriors involved have simply turned the other cheek?…." Main page link Amicalement Armand

Missing the first battle of Vienna 1529, which would have opened central Europe for the Ottomans under Suleyman in one of its most active half-century. Lumped together with the subsequent standoff of 1532 this probably belongs up there as rank 4 or 3 – unlike the later siege that happened too late during the evolution of the military development to last. |
