The great Coalition war of 1812

In 1812 the country of Wallachia was being harassed by it’s neighbors. Austria, Moldavia, and Serbia.But instead of dealing with the growing threat themselves they just ignored them and hoped for the best. One day in September 12, 1812 the Moldavian army invaded Galatz and began a scorched earth policy. The first world war had begun. Moldavia became allies with Austria and Serbia in exchange for small plots of land and cities after the war. The Wallachians were in utter confusion and sounded for the aid of there benefactors, the Ottomans. When the Ottomans heard of the invasion of there northern vassel they were furious and sent troops to aid in the repelling campaign. The Ottomans sent 12,000 soldiers to combat the Austrian forces and 5,000 Janissaries to combat the forces of Moldavia while the 3,000 Wallachian troops battled the Serbian forces. The fighting began in December 23, 1812 and was the most bloody conflict in Turkish history. The following are a list of battles.by date in order.



  • Battle of Galatz-December 25- Ottoman Victory

  • Battle of Belgrade-December 30-Ottoman Victory

  • Purge of Nish-January 3- Serbian victory

  • Second battle of Galatz January 10- Ottoman Victory

  • Battle of the last stand-February 13-Wallachian Victory

The battles were brutal and deadly but not as deadly as what happened next. The Ottomans and Wallachians signed a pact called the “Bloodshed treaty” in which the two nations pooled there resources together to take control of the three countries. The was that followed was called the “Great Coalition War”. The militaries of the two first concentrated on Moldavia. The following are battles in moldavia in the invasion. By date


  • Invasion of Moldavia-February 21- Ottoman/Walachian victory

  • Battle of Ismail-February 28- Ottoman Victory

  • Battle of the capital-March 12- Wallachian victory

The Moldavians were defeated and the Ottomans gave the land to the Wallachians as a gift. The ottomans then went on to fry other fish. They sent there military force to conquer Serbia. The Serbians were not afraid and prepared a defensive military line on the border they nick named the“Grand Line” they sent cannons, troops, and newly developed armored cars to fight off the Ottoman advance, the Austrians sent troops to aid the line defense. The following are Battles on the Grand Line.


  • First charge assault-April 13-Serbian victory

  • Second charge-April 21-Serbian victory

  • Dual charge assault-April 31-Ottoman.Wallachian victory

  • Austrian line counter attack-April 31-Ottoman.Wallachian victory

  • Third charge assault-May 4-Ottoman/Wallachian victory

The battles that were fought would be the most bloodiest of the war.

The line was broken and Serbia surrendered,the Ottoman empire took them as a vassal. All that was left was Austria. The Ottomans gained more troops and local militia and the Wallachians gained militia and troops as well. They prepared for one final assault on the Austrian border to push back the invaders. But they were told to wait, the sultan had announced the new members of the war. The countries of France, Sicily, Sardinia, Spain, Morocco, Gotland, Denmark, and Tripoly all signed the treaty to aid the war effort. They sent troops from all over the world to aid in the destruction of Austria. It took till July 30 1814 for the whole Coalition to get there troops to the border. And on August 3, 1814 the war began. The following list is of battles in the historic invasion of Austria in 1814 which ended the Austrian empire.


  • Battle for the Rhine-August 12-Sicilian victory

  • Battle of Vienna-August 14-Ottoman/French/Wallachian victory

  • Purge of Prague-August 23-Austrian victory

  • Battle of Prague-August 28-Austrian victory

  • Second battle of Prague-September 3-French/Ottoman/Sicilian/Wallachian victory

  • Battle of Buda-September 8-Spanish victory

  • Battle of Pest-September 13-Austrian victory

  • Second Battle of Pest-September 18-Austrian victory

  • Third battle of Pest-September 23-Austrian Victory

  • Battle for the Danube river-October 12-Ottoman victory

  • Battle of the last regiment-October 30-Wallachian victory
The fall of the empire of Austria was a shock to the world and fear began to ensue. The Ottoman sultan was generous and gave the allied nations large portions of land from the empires remains. But just as everything was settling down, the newly owned spanish Vassal of Vienna was invaded by the British empire. The Coalition sprang to it’s feet and rearmed themselves to push back the invaders. Little did they know that another coalition was made, the “Coalition of Europa”. The coalition consisted of Russia,Britain,Portugal,the Rhine, Poland,Corsica,the Netherlands and Switzerland. The first world war was heating up.
 
...
This is definitely strange.
First of all, the peace treaty feels unlikely.
Second, shouldn't there be a Napoleonic France allied to Austria at that time?
Thirdly, in OTL 1812, Moldavia was an Ottoman vassal, and so was Serbia.
For there to be an independent Gotland, you need to go back suite far, and independent Corsica really didn't last, so...
And how the hell do the XIXe century Ottomans get so OP? iOTL they were quite evidently giving signs of decay.

So yes, when is the PoD?

1. peace wouldnt work out in the long run, but a temporary alliance is what would happen in this event, I planned on the Ottomans betraying the French and Wallachians after the war.
2. Napoleonic france, yes. But with the Austrians aiding the rebelling vassals and countries, France had no choice but to aid those who called for aid. There was also the fact that Austria had aided the anti-france coalitions during the napoleonic wars, which aided in fueling distrust for the country anyway.
3.both also helped start the war, which brought the ire of the ottomans who still were recovering from the Vassal rebellions prior.
4.they got OP because of advances in european sicence and the fact that war makes money when you defeat those who challenge you. The ottomans used money taken from fallen nations to fuel their warmachine. This helped with the industrialization of the nations few factories and aided in the development of armored cars (horse carriages with crank guns. they were outfitted with heavy armor.)

Technically, France was still allied to Austria and Prussia IOTL 1812. Austria just decided to go against France in 1813, after their disastrous campaign in Russia.
At this point, France was trying to keep a modicum of order on the international stage. It was not taking land for shit and giggles but as retribution for having attacked France.
3.both also helped start the war, which brought the ire of the ottomans who still were recovering from the Vassal rebellions prior.
So the Serbians rebel, and the Danubian principalities exploit it as an opportunity to betray their vassalship to the ottomans ?

The Ottomans didn't have a warmachine at all. IOTL they were severely kicked in the balls several times and proved clearly not up to snuff when fighting against the Greeks and the Egyptians. Furthermore, the Danubian principalities and Serbia were dirt-poor. With the Ottoman forces away, the Greeks would likely have revolted earlier while at it.
Add to that that armored cars would have been unwieldly and frankly unusable for battle. Steel would've been of poor quality and hard to come by, and the weight would've been too awkward for horses to carry. Either you put in few horses, and then you have low protection, or you put in many horses and then you're just asking for your horses to get shot.
European science was not sufficiently advanced to allow for such things. What revolutioned XIXth century warfare was not armor, it was the machine-gun, of which the earliest working prototypes did not appear before 1850.

This is the same Ottoman Empire that in OTL had to rely on Muhammad Ali Pasha to retake the Two Holy Cities from some up-start emirate?
