The siege is presented as a battle between Catholic Christianity and Turkish Islam. In the real war there were Protestant, Eastern Orthodox and Muslim states and mercenaries (including a small number of Turks) supporting the Holy League and Christian states supporting the Turks. The Principality of Wallachia, an Orthodox Christian vassal state of the Ottoman Empire, secretly sabotaged the Turkish siege and was providing intelligence to Austria.
