Ottoman Empire.
Explanation:
The only Islamic empire that controlled territory in Europe in the early modern era was the Ottoman Empire. This empire started to develop and expand in the 15th century. The Ottomans managed to use the decline of the surrounding empires so they managed to conquer them with relative ease, thus creating a very large empire on excellent strategic location.
Part of the Ottoman Empire was located in Europe, or more specifically it controlled the Balkan Peninsula. The aspirations of the empire initially were to expand into Central Europe and possibly Western Europe, but the forces of these regions allied and didn't allowed the Ottomans to expand beyond the Balkans. The empire existed until the early 20th century, when it lost most of its territory and was reformed to create the modern day country of Turkey.

The Battle of Gettysburg, fought between June 1 and 3, 1863 between Union forces and Confederate forces, was one of the major turning points of the Civil War, as the Union victory stopped the Confederate advance in the territory of the north and left free way for the Union to be able to advance towards the territory of the south.
The battle itself was a massacre, with more than 50,000 dead in total. But in addition to being a military disaster for the Confederacy, it also had implications from a strategic point of view. An eventual southern victory would have implied a clear advance towards New York, which would imply an almost certain victory for the Confederacion. Furthermore, a Confederate victory would have encouraged France and Great Britain to ally with it to defeat the Union, which in those years was a major commercial adversary. Therefore, the victory of the Union in this battle prevented the participation of France and Great Britain in the conflict.
