[edit] Comments

Yeha I have a comment:

~~"In 1537 Suleiman the Magnificent...~~

~~... an action that led to teh indecisive naval battle of Prevesa"~~

~~I got this from:~~

~~Turnbull, Stephen. The Ottoman Empire 1326 - 1699. New York: Osprey, 2003.~~

Which says nothing about 300 galleys losing to 120 galleys which sounds ridiculously impossible to me anyway. I will give 48 hrs before I make some seriosu ammendments because there are at the moment no cited sections.

There you go (the numbers of the ships and ship type terminology are easily understandable)
