Battle of Lepanto stopped naval expansion of the Ottomans to the west, Battle of Diu stopped naval expansion of the Ottomans to the east. Diu is why Asia gets screwed over by the colonization of Christians as well as the Muslims
The Ottoman Expansion and the stopping of it is definitely important to the whole Muslim vs Christian thing, but the Thirty Years War being a Catholic vs Protestant war is also important. I guess which is more of a turning point depends on the student of history
I'm guessing that's the reason the age of Enlightenment happened pretty quickly afterwards. People be like "wtf why are we fighting over religions we're smarter than this"
That reminds me of the time I googled the battle of manila of the time. Crazy thinking that when the Spaniards invaded, Manila was ruled by a group of leaders of diverse faiths. Muslim, Taoist, Animist.
If you look at Europe and the Protestant movement, it starts spreading in the 16th century. And also the spread of Catholicism. So looking at history via the spiritual warfare lens is quite interesting.
Actually if you wanna include St. Paul's evangelizing that goes further back. But Europe was quite a hotbed of the religion.
Napoleon has the most important naval battle happen, the Naval battle of Trafalgar where Lord Nelson led the English fleet to victory (and his death) against the combined French/Spanish fleets. Where they took down the world's largest battleship the Spanish Santissima Trinidad
Like in Trafalgar, how do you as a filmmaker make it interesting to portray the fact that the wind was practically zero and they spent hours getting close to each other at what's essentially a walking pace but with massive ships.
Winged Hussars. It's the Siege of Vienna. The Ottomans nearly conquered the city (and consequently would open up Europe to further conquest) but then the Polish cavalry the Winged Hussars came down to their aid, in their angelic glory

: all I'm saying it's gonna have to be a difficult passion project, and no one who deals in big budget hollywood blockbusters will be into that. ...Except maybe Ridley Scott. And you saw what he did with Napoleon :v
