"THE HAWK AND THE NIGHTINGALE
A Nightingale sitting on the top of a oak,
singing her evening song, was spied by a
hungry Hawk, who swooped down and seized
her. The frightened Nightingale prayed the
Hawk to let her go.
"If you are hungry," said she, "why not
catch some large bird, I am not big enough
for even a luncheon."
"Do you happen to see many large birds
flying about?" said the Hawk. "You are
the only bird I have seen to-day, and I should
be foolish indeed to let you go for the sake
of larger birds that are not in sight. A
morsel is better than nothing."
Aesop's Fables
This is absurd.

Why 1456? Because?
In March 1453, an Ottoman army of 85,000 men led by Sultan Mehmet II laid siege to the city. Despite a desperate last-ditch defense of the city by the massively outnumbered Christian forces (7000 men, 2000 of whom were foreign mercenaries), Constantinople finally fell to the Ottomans after a two-month siege by on Tuesday May 29, 1453.
So....
