Battle of Zenta
The Battle of Zenta was fought on 11 September 1697 at Zenta, modern Senta in Serbia, on the Tisza River. Prince Eugene of Savoy surprised the Ottoman army of Sultan Mustafa II while it was crossing the river and destroyed it, killing tens of thousands, including the grand vizier. The decisive victory of the Great Turkish War led to the Treaty of Karlowitz of 1699, by which the Habsburgs gained most of Hungary and Transylvania.
