What made the ottoman empire's location strategic

They were near the Black Sea - they had access to water (for trade!) and were fairly secluded from other empires (no one really invaded them, not until Peter the Great of Russia came along and needed a warm water port for trade. And countries like England and the HRE referred to them as the “Eastern Question” - “who are they?” “what are their goals?” “what do they want?”).

Zwingli believed that the state governed with divine sanction. He believed that both the church and the state are placed under the sovereign rule of God. Christians were obliged to obey the government, but civil disobedience was allowed if the authorities acted against the will of God.
