For the 25th day of White History Month we celebrate European Unity at the Battle of Saint Gotthard and the Great Turkish War!
In 1526, the Ottoman Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent had crushed the Hungarian army at the Battle of Mohács, killing their King Louis II and subjugating the kingdom. At that time Europe was badly divided. The Holy Roman Emperor Charles V had been too preoccupied dealing with rebellions and wars with France, to provide sufficient forces to Hungary. Now the Ottoman Empire was on the borders of the Reich. Taking advantage of the wars in Europe, Suleiman went on to besiege Vienna in 1529. The key fortress city holding the Ottomans out of central Europe. The fall of Vienna could have lead to the collapse of the badly divided German and Italian states, who were warring with each other. Then all of central Europe may have fallen to the Turks.
The defense of the city was given to Nicholas, Count of Salm. At age 17, Nicholas fought the Battle of Morat 1476 against Charles the Bold. In 1488 he fought in Flanders and was made an Imperial Colonel. In 1509 he fought in Italy under Georg von Frundsberg and conquered Istria. At the Battle of Pavia in 1525 Nicholas of Salm played an important role in taking King Francis I of France prisoner. The following year he crushed the Peasants' Revolt in Tirol and conquered Schladming. Now aged 70, he was tasked with the defense of Vienna. For 2 weeks and 4 days, the 17,000 Christian defenders held out against 125,000 Turks. In the non-stop fighting they killed 15,000 and lost only 1500. While civilian casualties were much higher. Eventually Suleiman called off the siege. During the siege, Nicholas was badly wounded, and died a few months later from his wounds.
European division continued until 1648, with the end of the last great war of religion known as the Thirty Years War. The Peace of Westphalia was signed, which finally restored Christian unity. On August 1st 1664, the Ottoman army led by Grand Vizier Ahmed Pasha attempted to cross the Austrian border to march on Vienna. At the crossing of the Rába River, near the monastary of Saint Gotthard, the Turks numbering 150,000 and 360 guns were met with the League of the Rhine. A Christian coalition of 28,000 French, German, Italian, and Swiss soldiers with only 24 guns. The Christians held the crossing, which the turks attacked through, becoming surrounded on three sides. The enormous army continued pouring into the battle and began pushing the Christians back. The Turks fully overran the river crossing. The battle was then narrowly won by a sudden charge made by 6,000 French soldiers which surprised the advancing Turks and routed them into the river where they were cut down or drowned. -

For the 20th Day of White History Month we celebrate the legendary multi-generation struggle between France and England known as the Hundred Years War! The greatest national rivalry that has ever been. Both nations throughout the war, faced with hopeless situations, pushed each other to the brink and achieved victories no one could have thought possible. In this 116 year competition for the throne of France, the two great nations raced to the apex of military supremacy on this Earth.
After the Norman conquest in 1066, the English monarchy held significant land and titles on the continent, that owed homage to the French Crown. The English Crown was sovereign but it's properties, such as the Duchies of Aquitaine or Normandy, were occasionally required to pay tax and levies to the France. The King of France Charles IV the fair, died without a son in 1328. The law as written stated the line of succession would pass to the King's nearest male relative. In this case through his sister to her son. This was a problem for the French Crown as the King's sister had been married to the previous English King, and her son was the current King of England Edward III. The French nobles quickly revised the law to prevent the Kingdom from falling into English hands, disallowing it from passing through any woman. The line then went up to the deceased King's grandfather then down his 4th sons line to the new King of France Phillipe VI "The Fortunate."
King Phillipe VI had two major threats facing him upon taking the throne. First was the looming threat of an English Invasion from the rival claimant who controlled lands to his North and South-West. The second was the rising power of the Duchy of Burgundy in the East of France, which was now contending with the Capetian Dynasty of Valois for dominion. France was becoming decentralized. The power of the throne in Paris was not what it had been in the 13th century. Phillipe VI hoped to regain control by driving the English off the continent, hopefully subduing the Burgundian rivalry in the process, without open war. The French King claimed direct ownership over England's mainland dominions in 1337. King Edward III of England responded by pressing his claim to the French Crown through his grandfather, Phillipe IV of France. He created a new flag for his dual monarchy, in the hopes of a restored Angevin Empire. The resulting conflict lasted 116 years, from 1337 to 1453 and became known as The Hundred Years War. -

For the 19th Day of White History Month we celebrate two of the greatest and most anti-semitic monarchs in Medieval Europe, Pogrom Kings Saint Louis IX of France and Edward I of England! Both Kings were fearless warriors, effective rulers, leaders of Crusades and expelled the jews from their respective Kingdoms.
King Louis IX was born in 1214 and crowned in 1226. During his 44 year reign he was the wealthiest and most powerful monarch in Europe. The 13th century in France was referred to as the golden century of Saint Louis. France was the center of medieval culture. He built the Sainte-Chapelle to house a fragment of the true cross as well as the Crown of Thorns. In 1239, Louis had bought the Crown for 135,000 livres from the Latin Emperor of Constantinople Baldwin II. The Latin Empire had taken over the city and its surrounding area after the Sack of Constantinople by Crusaders in 1204.
In 1230, King Louis outlawed usury by banishing all jews who practiced it and confiscated the wealth it derived. In 1240, he became the first Monarch of Europe to receive a translation of the Talmud. He and his religious scholars were not pleased by the anti-Christian sentiments it expressed. They ordered the leaders of the jewish community to court where the held a trial for the Talmud known as the Disputation of Paris. The worst lines of the Talmud were read aloud for the court. The jewish leaders were demanded to explain each one. The trial led to the King ordering every copy of the Talmud be burned in 1242. Destroying over 12,000 Talmuds and other jewish texts.
That same year King Louis became mortally ill. From 1242 to 1244 it appeared he would die of his sickness which left him bed ridden. In his dying state he payed to God, promising to take the cross if he should get better. Miraculously, his illness disappeared. In 1248, he kept his promise by leading the Seventh Crusade into Egypt. They landed at the port of Damietta and succeeded where the last 2 crusades had failed by taking control of the city. They marched down the Nile for Cairo but the intense heat caused severe attrition. King Louis' depleted army was destroyed at the Battle of Fariskur 1250. The King was ransomed for 400,000 livres and the return of Damietta. He returned to France in 1254, after reinforcing Christian defenses across the Holy Land. In 1259 the Greek prince exiled in Anatolia won a major battle against the Latin Empire, retaking Constantinople by 1261, known as the Palaiologos Restoration. King Louis launched his next Crusade in 1267. With him, his 3 sons, his younger brother, and the prince of England, Lord Edward. After landing in Tunis, their camp was struck with disease and King Louis died while on Crusade. He was proclaimed a Saint by the Pope in 1297, for being a model Christian Monarch. -

Lord Edward's youth was a period of civil war in England know as the Baron's Wars. Instability and rebellion was the lasting legacy of King John. Edward was captured by rebel Barons after losing a battle in 1264 but managed to escape in a few months. Edward then led a force against the Baron leader, winning the Battle of Evesham in 1265, finally pacifying the realm. From 1271 to 1272, Edward was leading the Ninth Crusade, known as Lord Edward's Crusade. The last successful campaign in the Holy Lands before the final fall of Acre in 1291 and Ruad in 1302. After winning several battles, Edward was attacked in the night by an Assassin. No ordinary killer, he was sent by the Order of Assassins based out of Alamut and Masyaf Castles in Persia and Syria. Edward fought and killed the Assassin but had a festering wound from the poison dagger. He decided to depart for home. On his way back he received word his father had died. Upon arrival in England, he was coronated in Westminster Abbey, November 1272.
He began his reign with the total conquest of Wales and the suppression of two rebellions from 1277 to 1283. He further expanded English control into Ireland. King Alexander II of Scotland died in 1286, without an heir so King Edward was invited to arbitrate their succession but took it as an opportunity for his Kingdom to extend its control over all of Britannia. Using this as a casus belli, he began his conquest of Scotland. However, faced with the Scottish heroes John Balliol, William Wallace, and Robert the Bruce, the wars in Scotland would take another 2 generations of English Kings, only to be fought to a stand still. France seized this opportunity to capture English holdings on the continent in 1294. Edward now found himself in a two front war against Scotland and France. France was Edward's first priority so he sailed South to fight and eventually retook Gascony by 1303.
On the 18th July 1290, a day jews commemorate the Destruction of Israel, King Edward issued the Edict of Expulsion. Edward told the sheriffs of every county, all Jews must be expelled by no later than All Saints' Day, November 1 that year. Jews were allowed to leave with personal possessions, but debts and properties were claimed by the Crown. Thanks to King Edward, jews would disappear from England for the next 300 years. A period known today as the English Renaissance. -
