The fall of Philadelphia in 1390 marked the conquest of the last independent Christian Greek settlement in western Asia Minor to the Muslim Ottomans of the Ottoman Empire. The city, now named Alaşehir, had been subject to a siege by the Turkish forces. Ironically, the besieging army included a contingent from the Byzantine Empire, which had become an Ottoman vassal state.
