The British Empire
During the Fifteenth Century the Islamic armies of the Ottoman Empire were steadily extending their power over much of what we now think of as Central Europe (Romania, Austria, the Czech territories, large parts of Greece).The large Christian kingdoms of the Holy Roman Empire were resisting the Muslim expansion: so there were constant vicious and bloody wars between Muslims and Christians more or less permanently.In Transylvania, and in many other parts of central Europe, the Fifteenth century was a time of chaos, massacre and religious atrocities on both sides. (Think of what Iraq or Afghanistan are like right now).There is an old Rutger Hauer film Flesh and Blood which is set in approximately this period: that might give you some idea of fifteenth century Transylvania (if your parents allow you to watch such stuff - it is pretty nasty).Or you could watch Luc Besson's Joan of Arc (or William Shakespeare's Richard III). They both cover the same period, but in France and England respectively. France and England were pretty messed up in the Fifteenth Century - Transylvania was even more messed up than that.
20th century
It depends on the century the question refers to. In the 16th Century, the Ottoman Empire was the most powerful empire west of China. In the 19th Century, the Ottoman Empire was one of the weakest empires in the world and called the "Sick Man of Europe".
