Ottoman’s empire in southern europe- what is the cause of its expansion and the effect?

The Ottoman Empire was able to expand so rapidly because other countries were weak and unorganized. The Ottomans had advanced military organization and tactics for the time which also helped them expand. The effect of this expansion was that the ottoman empire controlled most trade routes.

Hope this helped
