When the Ottoman Empire laid siege to Candia on Crete for over two decades, a small contingent of Croatian and Habsburg volunteers held the line alongside Venetian defenders. This episode follows the Knights of St. Mark from the Croatian Military Frontier to the longest siege in European history — 21 years, from 1648 to 1669. We explore the role of Croatian frontier soldiers (Graničari), the leadership of Francesco Morosini, and the final surrender that shocked Christendom. Along the way, we uncover the forgotten story of the 3,000 Croatian troops who fought in the Cretan War, the supply routes across the Adriatic, and the legacy of Candia in Croatian military memory. This is not another battle on Croatian soil — it's a window into Croatia's place in the wider Mediterranean struggle between Venice and the Ottoman Empire. #SiegeOfCandia #CroatianHistory #CretanWar #VenetianRepublic #OttomanEmpire #FrancescoMorosini #MilitaryFrontier #Graničari #KnightsOfStMark #1669 #Adriatic #Candia #Heraklion #Habsburg #EarlyModern #History #FexingoHistory #Europe Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
