At 29 May 1453 AD, Byzantine Empire collapsed because Constantinople fall to hand of Sultan Muhammad Al-Fatih/Mehmed II from Ottoman Empire.  At 1461 AD, Remnant Of Byzantine Empire at Anatolia, Trabzon Empire conquer by Mehmed II.

His grandson, Ivan IV  the Terrible, claim himself as Roman Emperor ( at Russia, the title is Tsar). Ivan IV is descedant from Byzantine Royal Family.  At this age, Ivan s political rival, Sultan Suleyman Al-Qanuni Of Ottoman claim title Kaiser I-Rum ( Turkish :  Roman Emperor). Ottoman Empire occupied Constantinople and claim himself as successor from Byzantine Empire. At 1552 AD, Ivan The Terrible invaded City Of Kazan and Turkish Tribes from Kazan ask helped from Ottoman Empire under Sultan Selim II, son of Sultan Suleyman Al-Qanuni.  Ottoman Empire used his vassal, Mongols Khanate Of Crimea for attack Territories Of Russia with Mongols Cavalry.  At Era Sultan Mehmed IV ( 1648-1687 AD),  broke confrontation beetwen Ottoman Empire and Empire Of Russia.  At 1659 AD, Ottoman Army and Russian Army face to face at Battle Of Konotoppada. Ottoman Army with help from Cossack Army destroy 350.000 Russian Army. At 1792 AD, Empire Of Russia under Emperess Catherine II occupied Ottoman Vassal, Khante Of Crimea.

Before Russia Victory, Russia ever tried captured Crimea at Goverment Of Tsar Peter The Great. They build several castle at Gate Of Crimea. At 1711 AD, Ottoman Army and Crimean Cavalry besieged position from Tsar Peter and his army at River Of Prut, it is forced Tsar Peter The Great submit to Ottoman Army and Ottoman Empire ask Tsar Peter to pay tax to Khanate Of Crimea. But, at 1792 AD, Empire Of Russia can captured Crimea from Ottoman Empire by collaboration with last Khan Of Crimea, Shahin Giray.

If seeing blood relation, Ottoman Empire more near to Byzantine Empire because Orhan I married daughter from Byzantine Emperor and Ivan III only married with Byzantine Emperor s niece.
