The 1453 Conquest is a committee that simulates the events leading up to and during the Ottoman siege of Constantinople in 1453. Delegates, representing various historical figures from the Byzantine Empire, the Ottoman Empire, and other European powers, have the opportunity to engage in diplomatic negotiations, military planning, and political maneuvering. They can propose alliances, exchange intelligence, and even attempt to prevent the fall of the Byzantine capital. By participating in this committee, delegates can gain a deeper understanding of the historical context, the strategic decisions made during the siege, and the impact of the conquest on the region.
