| rdfs:label | - Siege of Thessalonica (1422–30)
|
| rdfs:comment | - The Ottomans maintained their naval blockade until 1430, when they assaulted and took the city. The Venetians had not realized how expensive the defense of the city was. Nonetheless, it held out despite severe hunger within the city. Murad II had been engaged in numerous battles with the Venetians, Karamanids and numerous pretenders; when all had been subdued, a large army was sent to Macedonia and the city was subjected to three days of pillage and destruction after its capture in 1430. At that time population numbers were modest.
