Mehmed II was important both within Ottoman and within European history as he was the sultan who led the Ottoman's conquest of Constantinople. ... The Ottomans changed the name of Constantinople to Istanbul and made it the capital of their empire, which it remained until the empire was dissolved in 1923.
