They did got rekt due to Timur in both OTL and canon TSK. The captivity of the sultan and civil war weren't anything pleasant for them. Byzantines wouldn't be (even with the Europe in their control) able to get back into Anatolia. So the most likely outcome would be Ottomans stuck in Asia and Byzantines stuck in Europe in state of constant clash.
Well, by "rekt", I meant that they won't be able to recover here as the main reason the Ottomans survived Timur's onslaught IIRC was due to the Ottoman areas of Europe.

Yes, but at that point weakening of Ottomans means that another Turkish sultanate would arise in Anatolia - Karamanids or Danishmendids are possible succesors. Or Trebizond Empire would suck a lot of former Ottomand lands and we would see the long-term rivalry between Trebizond and Constantinople - who is more rightful Byzantine Empire?
Correct, but uh, it's easier than writing Bohemia-Hungary-Poland all the time.
What about "What if that reformist Ciesor didn't get blown to bits by the anarcho-nationalists?"
He was banned after he was caught "building infrastructure" (read: having sockpuppets) in his own election game.
He was only kicked about that but Augenis created sock when he was kicked so then he was banned.
That sound like bullshit tbh, I don’t believe Augenis would doe that kind of malicious act. Specifically in his own game.
This is really late and I probably should have posted here as soon as I returned, but I'll do so anyway.
Thank you, everyone, so so much for voting for this timeline in the Turtledove Awards of 2019. Even if we did not receive the award for Best Medieval Timeline, I'm amazed at all the support which TSK received there and continues to receive up to this day. This TL is a defining moment for me as a member of this site and having an award or not having an award is not going to change that.
Did you know that TSK has been featured on the Ukrainian blog Petro i Mazepa? Here's the blog post about it, alongside AH.com in general!
("Ukraine (Krajina) on the map of the world in the timeline The Silver Knight (the map is from the year 1959 in that timeline). The story is actually about the surviving Grand Duchy of Lithuania. However, Ukraine appears in the twentieth century, as a result of the collapse of the Lithuanian Empire. Pay attention to the borders.")

@Augenis
I just want to say this: you represent the best of AH.COM. You take an unexpected premise (Lithuania remaining a major European power) and make it both plausible and fascinating to read.
Now that you are back, I hope you can come up with some fresh new ideas.

Very awesome work! We can’t wait to see what’s next!
And now I wonder what the equivalents to Kalterkrieg and Krasnacht would be for this scenario.
