The siege of Candia was characterized by a struggle for supplies at sea, a war of attrition on land and an unprecedented intensity of mine warfare. The siege was part of the Cretan War in which Candia was the last major stronghold on the island to remain in the hands of the Venetian Republic. This is how contemporary historiography recounts the staggering siege of Candia.

This is great! I read quite a bit about 17th century Europe in the 1990s, and last year I've studied quite some naval warfare history (as a private person using fantastic resources like this). Still I had never heard of this war! Naval warfare history people should certainly take a closer look at the events during this long war. It's great that you give attention to (publicly) lesser known and accessible episodes of history. The dominance and maturation of history presentations that are of more immediate interest to the English speaking countries, gives the "niches" covered here ever increasing content value. The illustrations are a bit funny by today's standards. But they do add both some humor and a feeling for the time in question.

The average soldier had nothing to win. The city was in ruins, all the valuables already sold for food and war supplies after so many years. Soldiers at least got some loot from the french, and the Sultan didn't want to prolong that war with a casus belli that could result in more money being wasted facing another western power.

I live in the city, no more than 5 minutes away from the center, and there is fountain called Morosini there. A couple of the venetian buildings are still standing and used for various purposes. The part of the city inside the walls is maze-like and narrow as it was during the siege and a good part of the walls and and some of the bastions are still standing, especially on the west and south, along with 3 of the main gates of the city. The walls are mind bogglingly wide, layed with grass, like a park, great for a stroll. It's a shame I'd never heard of this siege before.

​@@therealoldnosey8689 Well, I live a short distance from a fountain called Morosini. Francesco Morosini is usually known for damaging the Acropolis of Athens while/ after sieging the city some years after the siege of Candia. There are multiple fountains bearing italian names so I thought they were named after the people that commissioned them. As for why I didn't know about the siege, it's more correct to say that I knew the city had been sieged a couple of times, but had no idea of the scale or the length of either. The whole war simply isn't taught at greek schools. You'll find the same kind of comments in the videos about the 80 years war's sieges.

In the 17th century did “Retreat” lead to a many more casualties rather then what’s now known as “till the last man” Partly why Alexander the Great was so successful is that they never retreated, and tried to force others to first. It’s amazing how few men died in battle because of this. But I’m curious how long that lasted. As once muskets were introduced the range of fighting changed so dramatically.

A couple of fun facts from a local in Herakleion. First, some of the ottoman fortresses build for the siege around Candia still stand and the small towns developed around them are now suburbs of the city. Second, during WW2 the population of Herakleion took cover from the air raids of the german air force inside the city walls. This proved to be a wise move since the city was heavily bombed and many buildings were left in rubles, but the walls did not crumble.

@John Adams Actually, outside of Chania, a city in western Crete, there is a pretty big graveyard for the fallen fallschirmjagers.
