Far be it from me to stop you from discussing the Ottomans!
In fun facts-that I don’t remember the source of because my memory is terrible but you may be able to confirm or deny:
That time there was so many graduates from the universities that their education was useless, and many turned to banditry in the mountains.
(For real, I remember the gigst of stories fairly well. Dates or names? Absolutly rubbish, so my story is useless haha)

Bless you queen - honestly I’ve used my history degree more in this thread about fantasy creatures than I have in the decade since I graduated!!

Oof; now then! That’s something I’ll have to look up myself! :smiley:

Be cool if it was true though!

What I can tell you for sure though is that if the Ottomans had won the siege of Vienna, we might ALL be living like Blood Elves in a Turkic-Persian inspired setting.

You can make it twice, because I nearly stole the glory from Aerilen!

I’m actually sad that they still have those eyes. In my heart of hearts I was hoping for something that’s closer to how they’re portrayed in the more recent art. Just look at Sylvanas’ warbringer.

Well, they already sort of updated the eyes that you can actually see the pupils and stuff.

Personally I really like the current elven eyes, they have both the glow and the eyes underneath it visible!
