In the aftermath of the Ottoman victory at Maritsa, panic grips Constantinople as Emperor John V Palaiologos makes the fateful decision to submit to Sultan Murad and become an Ottoman vassal. But while the aging rulers of Byzantium and the Ottoman Empire struggle to hold their realms together, their ambitious sons have other plans. In one of the most extraordinary conspiracies of the fourteenth century, Prince Andronicus IV and Savcı Bey, heir to the Ottoman throne, join forces in a daring attempt to overthrow their fathers and seize power for themselves. What follows is a story of betrayal, rebellion, blinding, imprisonment, political intrigue, and shifting alliances that stretches from Constantinople to the Anatolian plateau. As the young princes gamble everything for power, the future of both the Byzantine and Ottoman worlds hangs in the balance.

The History of Modern Greece Podcast covers the events from Ancient Greece, the Roman Empire, and the fall of Constantinople in 1453, to the years under the Ottoman Empire, and 1821 when the Greeks fought for independence... all the way to the modern-day.
