And about battle at Kosovo field(kosovo polje), that was the last battle before five century ocupation of serbia by turks.Until today is not known who actually won that battle, but Serbs were much less in nimbers but given turks a fair fight,Serbs were heavily armored with large swords and flails unlike the turks who were lightly armored and with ligth scimitars wich together with superior numbers led them to "victory" :not_ok: .
And during that long ocupation Serbs had made many ressistance groups(ustanike,hajduke ,uskoke) and also made two large rebelions(ustanak) driven turks from, first led by Karadjordje and second led by Milos Obrenovic(not Obilic).
At the end turks were driven from serbian land and never returned( i think).

There was a book called "Na Drini cuprija" full of legends and myths written by Ivo Andric who receved Nobel prize for that book.It is about bridge who survived many years(hundreds) and seen many legends battles myths historical moments and so on.Nice book for those who love that kind of stuff.

I cannot write any more
