Zenta, 11 September 1697, was one of the greatest Ottoman defeats: it was the decisive battle that forced the Ottomans into the Treaty of Karlowitz of 1699, which effectively ended Ottoman rule in much of Central Europe. Do note that the reference on the medal to Psalm 88 is wrong, the quote is from Psalm 89.
