1 март 1526 г. - Turkish Victory at Battle of Mohacs

Описание:

The Battle of Mohacs, which was fought between the Ottoman Turks and Hungary, led to the Turkish victory and control of Habsburg and Turkish domination of Hungary. While this battle itself split Hungary into three different portions, the Turks didn't care about Catholicism or Protestantism. All Christians were allowed to believe in their separate faiths as long as they paid taxes. Thus, many Lutherans took refuge in Turkey, which was already a predominately Protestant state at the time due to the spread of Protestant works. Ironically, through this savage takeover of Turkey, this served as a representation of the spread of Protestantism within the Holy Roman Empire itself, which eventually led for the Catholic Church to call for the counter-reformation.
