Talk:Cossack raids

Yedisan

Incorrect Information: The entire Yedisan region was not ceded to Russia as a result of the Russo-Turkish War (1768–1774) and the Treaty of Küçük Kaynarca. Only Kilburun was ceded to Russia. The complete annexation of Yedisan by Russia occurred after the Russo-Turkish War (1787–1792) through the Treaty of Jassy. Ömereditss (talk) 14:35, 20 May 2025 (UTC)

Lead role

Shouldn't we fixed the Ottoman Empire higher than the Crimean and Nogai Khanate? The Ottomans played a leading role here. @StephanSnow Ömereditss (talk) 20:43, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

My guess is that they put them in that order because the other two groups were closer to the Cossacks and suffered more frequent raids? The way the infobox describes the results seem to support that. MilesVorkosigan (talk) 21:44, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

The Cossack raids largely developed as a reaction to the Crimean–Nogai slave raids in Eastern Europe... and would only decrease in intensity as the Crimean–Nogai ones also did. That's the explanation for it.

Although it would make sense putting the Ottoman Empire higher here as it did have a more leading role, so I would agree with putting it higher. In the Crimean–Nogai slave raids in Eastern Europe article the Ottoman Empire is lower due to being the supporters rather than being directly involved, but in here it's different since they were the direct targets and with the explanation I gave of having a more leading role.

They were one of the direct targets, yes. I don’t see an explanation anywhere, though, do you mean something you posted on the other page? MilesVorkosigan (talk) 18:17, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

The Ottoman Empire had a leading role in the defense from Cossack raids throughout the conflict:

BL Davies (2007) p. 192:

"Alan Fisher believes this population decline forced the Ottomans to reassess the costs of maintaining their administrative and garrison presence in Crimea; after 1676 they gradually ceded their jurisdiction in Crimea to the khans so that they could devote greater resources to maintaining their presence in Podolia and reinforcing their garrisons on the lower Dnepr."

If you were asking about "The Cossack raids largely developed as a reaction to the Crimean–Nogai slave raids in Eastern Europe" part, that's written at the heading of this article. StephanSnow (talk) 22:36, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

The second citation provided isn't a real book.

”Ukraine: A History. Seattle: University of Washington Press. p. 146” The book does not exist; the closest book to it is published by the University of Toronto, and the text says something completely different than what the page of the book actually says.
