The Hungarian–Ottoman War (1375–1377) was the third confrontation between the Kingdom of Hungary and the Ottoman Empire in the Balkans. The war ended in a Hungarian victory, as the armies of Louis I dealt a blow in Bulgaria not only to the Turks, but also to the Bulgarian ruler Ivan Shisman, who was allied with them in 1377.
