Savoyard Crusade
Years: 1366 - 1367
The Savoyard crusade (1366–67) is born out of the same planning that led to the Alexandrian Crusade.
It is the brainchild of Pope Urban V and is led by Amadeus VI, Count of Savoy, against the Ottoman Empire in eastern Europe.
Although originally intended as a collaboration with the Kingdom of Hungary and the Byzantine Empire, the crusade is diverted to attack the Second Bulgarian Empire, where it makes small gains that it hands over to the East Romans (Byzantines).
It makes these small gains against the Ottomans in the vicinity of Constantinople and on Gallipoli.
