This volume picks up where volume 1 of the Handbook on the History of Southeast Europe left off. Both volumes provide the most comprehensive presentation of Southeast Europe before the advent of nation-states. Taking into account European, Eastern Mediterranean, and Eurasian contexts, it presents the event history and the structures of power and rule of this region from the late Middle Ages to the eve of the development of nation-states.
