The article recalls Ottoman capital’s repeated close calls from invaders, noting 1203 siege by Fourth Crusade, 1204 capture and crowning of Baldwin, 1261 revival by Michael Palaiologos, and 1875 near-miss halted by British sea power, with earlier strikes shaping sea power’s role in its fate alongside the Dardanelles crisis.
