The Ottoman Empire recovers from its decade-long civil war in 1415, and subsequently seeks to reestablish control over Albania, a region characterized by rough mountainous terrain, and loose assemblies of family tribes. The Castriot family accepts Ottoman rule in 1417, and with the support of the Ottomans, quickly becomes one of the strongest Albanian families. By 1431, the Ottomans regain direct control of much of the region. In 1437, the Castriot family head, John, dies. Instead of allowing his son George Castriot to control the family holdings, a military commander already in Ottoman service as Iskander Bey or Scanderbeg, the Sultan orders the Ottoman governor of Kroya to rule Castriot lands. As soon as the Ottomans became preoccupied with fighting against the Crusade of Varna in 1443, Scanderbeg revolts, seizing Kroya by deception and then regaining Castriot fortresses across the region. In March 1444, Scanderbeg unites many of the Albanian families in the Albanian League, provoking the Sultan to send an invading army under Ali Pasha to once again restore Ottoman rule.. problem like the . turks. ?.

When Tamerlane invades eastern Anatolia in early summer 1402, Bayezid breaks off his siege of Byzantine Constantinople and marches east to face him. Along the way, he abandons a strong position at Ankara only for the Timurid army to vanish. Tamerlane completely evades Bayezid to only to reappear behind the Ottoman army at Ankara.

Tamerlane diverts the Cubuk Creek and destroys all the wells around Ankara while he awaits his opponent; the Ottomans arrive at Ankara to find deceivingly sufficient fresh water..
