Warfare in the 15th Century
Itâs crucial to remember that soldiers in Europe and Anatolia were not members of national armies in the early 15th century, and there was not yet much of a sense of nationalism that might inspire patriotism. The soldiersâ loyalties were with local leaders, towns, and regions. Knights and their men were tied to the agricultural cycle, enlistment was by a summons from leaders owed service, and there was no age limit, with boys and old men being called.
There were few militaries that could be considered professional, but those who could were the bodyguards of kings, bishops, and leaders such as voivodes, princes, and emirs. On the Christian side, the Knights of St. John, occupying Rhodes, were a military order of crusading knights descended from the Knights Hospitallers, and on the Ottoman side, the Janissaries were essentially a professional formation.
