dc.description When the Ottoman Turks made Brusa in Asia Minor their capital in 1326, they were no more than a minor Asiatic military power, fighting as horse-archers as countless nomadic people before them, but within less than two hundred years, they had become the leading military power in Europe. The military technology of this extraordinary people has received comparatively little attention from historians.<br><br>Cuando en 1527 los turcos otomanos hicieron de Brusa su capital en Asia Menor, no eran más que una potencia militar menor, que luchaban con arqueros a caballo precedidos de numerosas fuerzas frontales a pié. En poco menos de doscientos años se habían convertido sin embargo en la potencia militar líder en Europa. La tecnología militar de este extraordinario pueblo ha recibido poca atención de los historiadores. [traducido por el editor]
