P: In the Morean War, the Republic of Venice besieged Sinj in October 1684 and then again March and April 1685, but both times without success. In the 1685 attempt, the Venetian armies were aided by the local militia of the Republic of Poljica, who thereby rebelled against their nominal Ottoman suzerainty that had existed since 1513. In an effort to retaliate to Poljica, in June 1685, the Ottomans attacked Zadvarje, and in July 1686 Dolac and Srijane, but were pushed back, and suffered major casualties. With the help of the local population of Poljica as well as the Morlachs, the fortress of Sinj finally fell to the Venetian army on 30 September 1686. On 1 September 1687 the siege of Herceg Novi started, and ended with a Venetian victory on 30 September. Knin was taken after a twelve-day siege on 11 September 1688. The capture of the Knin Fortress marked the end of the successful Venetian campaign to expand their territory in inland Dalmatia, and it also determined much of the final border between Dalmatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina that stands today. The Ottomans would besiege Sinj again in the Second Morean War, but would be repelled. On 26 November 1690, Venice took Vrgorac, which opened the route towards Imotski and Mostar. In 1694 they managed to take areas north of the Republic of Ragusa, namely Čitluk, Gabela, Zažablje, Trebinje, Popovo, Klobuk and Metković. In the final peace treaty, Venice did relinquish the areas of Popovo polje as well as Klek and Sutorina, to maintain the pre-existing demarcation near Ragusa.
Answer this: What date did the siege on Knin begin?

A: 1688-August-31


P: The battle began around 9:00 a.m. on August 1, 1789, as the Russian and Austrian artillery opened fire on the Turkish lines.   The Turks had fortified their camp with a line of entrenchments.  Ottoman troops in the Balkans were experienced at erecting field fortifications, which could include ditches, earthen ramparts, and wooden palisades and towers.  The Ottomans sortied from their defenses to attack the allies all along their battle line.  Allied artillery and musket fire drove the Turks back. Suvorov then attacked the Turkish right flank.  The Russian cavalry was repulsed, but the Russian infantry attack was successful.  The Turks were pushed back into their entrenchments under close range Russian fire.  On the Ottoman left, the Austrian infantry also threw back the defenders.  Defeated on both ends of their line, the Ottomans fled.  The victory was complete by 4:00 p.m.  The allies lacked the resources to pursue the Turks and advanced no farther into Ottoman territory. The Turkish casualties numbered 1,500 dead and 2,500 wounded.  Allied casualties amounted to 800. The allies had captured 12 Ottoman guns.
Answer this: How had more casualties, the Turks or the Allies?
