Origins
editIn the 14th century the Ottoman Empire was significantly expanding into the Balkans, conquering much of Byzantium, Bulgaria and Serbia. The first military encounter between the Bosnian and Turkish army was in 1388, in a small fortified town in Eastern Herzegovina called Bileća where the Bosnian army led by Vlatko Vuković defeated the much more powerful Ottoman army led by Lala Sahin Pasha.[1] The following year, Bosnia alongside many other European countries allied together to stop the Ottoman Army in Kosovo.[2] The Ottomans would activly raid and attack Bosnia during the 15th century up until their invasion in 1459 where they fully annexed the domains of the Bosnian King in 1463, the Bosnian King Stjepan Tomašević was executed in Ključ the same year.[3]
