Yes, it is true that for approximately five centuries, much of the Balkans was under Ottoman Turkish rule. The Ottoman Empire expanded into the region in the late 14th century and maintained control until the 19th and early 20th centuries, when various Balkan nations began to gain independence. This period significantly influenced the cultural, social, and political landscape of the Balkans, leaving a lasting impact that is still evident today.
