Our animated historical series on the Ottoman Wars continues with the siege of Rhodes of 1522. By the early XVI century the famous Crusaders from the Order of the Hospitallers controlled Rhodes and became a constant threat to the Ottoman naval dominance and economic interest. New sultan Suleiman I, who would be later known as the Magnificent just took Belgrade and opened the road into Europe, yet he needed to take control of Rhodes to secure his flank and that led to the siege of Rhodes in 1522.

Previously in our animated historical documentary series on the Ottoman Wars, we have covered the battles of Kosovo (), Nicopolis (), Ankara (), Varna (), Second Kosovo, Constantinople (), Belgrade, Targoviste and Otlukbeli (), Vaslui, Valea Alba (), Skanderbeg's rebellion (), Breadfield, Krbava, Otranto and Chaldiran () and the OttomanMamluk War of 15161517 ().
