During the first siege of Vienna in 1529, the conditions, IIRC was like this :
- It was during the time the Ottomans occasionally timed their attacks on the Habsburg in order to lessen the pressure on the Protestants
- More importantly, it was during the first years of Protestanism's very lively emergence in northern europe, as we already know it. Protestanism was kinda pushing southward during these times.
That's all I know... During the second one in 1683, I'm not very knowledgeable either. But the Polish participation in the defense of Vienna was an important factor during the second siege event. My question is simple, with the conditions possessed by the respective events of siege of Vienna, what will be the consequences of either 1st or 2nd siege succeed ? Austria will surely going to be bled dry. Will we see Habsburgs losing their eastern empire in Austria ? What will be the fate of Bohemia ? How either the successful 1st or 2nd siege of Vienna effect the future policies of the surrounding power in particular, in European powers in general ?
