The gas price going up in Europe has nothing to do with climate. It's going up mostly on the reliance of oil from Russia.
Mongols will get utterly destroyed in Western Europe. People forget the real masters of warfare are still Europeans. And horse archer armies aren't a novelty as Europeans have fought cavalry armies numerous times in the past. And let's not even talk about WESTERN STYLE CASTLES. Germany alone has 5 THOUSAND castles and fortified towns. Ask Hungary how a mere 50 WESTERN STYLE CASTLES destroyed the Golden Horde.

Imagine becoming so strong that there was no longer any need to justify your wars since you were destined to rule the world and the only acceptable diplomacy was to become subject or a rebel. That is an insane self-fulfilling prophecy.

They failed though.
@@averykleon they failed? Not in genhgis’ lifetime.
The "how" is always interesting, but the "why" is often neglected - and to me at least, so much more fascinating. BRAIN FOOD. Great work.
Indeed!
the "Why" for many kingdoms seems to be "gathered together under a charismatic, healthy(or old) leader. pressured by outside forces that threaten their safety. Realize they just beat the "big bad" of the region. Original ruler dies. Heirs fuck shit up in chaotic and different ways."
alexander, menes, khan, julius. many figures seem to not only obtain this status up until basically cameras, but the way their empires seemingly crumbled due to what was probly incest and lead poisoning/privilege causing their immediate successors to act sociopathically and tear it all down within a few 100 years or less.
Mongol ideology simplified: “All your realms belong to us.”
WE ARE THE MONGOLS. LOWER YOUR SHIELDS AND SURRENDER YOUR CITY. WE WILL ADD YOUR BIOLOGICAL AND TECHNOLOGICAL DISTINCTIVENESS TO OUR OWN. YOUR CULTURE WILL ADAPT TO SERVICE US. RESISTANCE IS FUTILE
It is pretty much similar ideology to most empires.
Inner Mongolia: euh...
Mongols: you exist because we allow it, you will perish because we demand it!
@@marloyorkrodriguez9975 Inner Mongolia: euh?... ok,
"Increasingly, the mongols divided the world into two groups; those who had submitted, and those who had not."
You know, I'm starting to think the fictional empire of Noxus has more in common with the Mongols than with Rome.
Caesar's legion from fallout is the same.
It has a lot of parallels with the empire of Chinggis.
Ultra conservative Muslims think along the same lines, for Islam means submission to Allah.
Nah, Rome definitely fits Noxus much better than the Mongols lol. Acutely defined hierarchical organization, culture prizing personal ambition even at the cost of close relatives, the designation of local magistrates to oversee territories, a capital city with seemingly modern day level population density, etc.
And of course, the general similarities with Roman Aesthetics & utter lack of any nomadic influence in Noxus. But since Noxus is kind of an archetypical empire, it will share many similarities with empires of all kinds throughout history. Parallels can be drawn to Alexander's Empire or Napoleon's as well.
@@waltode6 It also means 'peace' but that's not exactly convenient if you're a fundamentalist, there are Christians who view the world in much the same way while they hope for the rapture.
Did you all just miss the extremely obvious parallels to Rome in this video?
From divinely ordained conquest to leaders having/using specific religious titles to justify their power to treating all other peoples as subjects to be to every succeeding state using them for legitimacy?
There are near 1 to 1 comparison in their imperial ideology with Rome up to around Trajan, the early Caliphate, Alexander's Macedon, Victorian England, and half of China's dynasties
Imagine if the Mongols managed to conquer Japan, Vietnam, Java, India, the Mamluke Sultanate (including Egypt) and extended till Central Europe. I think there would have been more than four Khanates.
@@smellypatel5272 I mean, they still look Asian.
Indians are Asians too if you haven't seen a world atlas before.
@@Otto45 He means the asian ethicity. Indians(and middle easterners) are Caucasian.
@@smellypatel5272 Turks in western Asia looks Caucasian
@@smellypatel5272Patel You are actually very right,
the key impacts of Mongolian dominance over the Asian continent is the increased genetic homogeny.
The Systematic Massacres of up to 70% of the local populace during the initial conquests followed by the settling of Mongol forces from other lands, forcefully blended the genetic makeup of central Asian people.
A Kazakhstani, Siberian & Chinese person may look different, but they would look more different today if it weren't for the Mongols.
@@smellypatel5272 naah but homogeneity would be there. Mongols loved taking foreign wives and embracing foreign culture and religions just like every other Steppe people... Khazars, Gokturks, Xiongnu
The place where Genghis was declared khan is the place where the 2nd Gokturk state khan, the wise khan, had the Orkhon monuments built. If we look at Atilla, like Genghis Khan, he had his tomb built in secret. It is very impressive that nomadic traditions have remained unchanged for thousands of years, although it is not written, they have information about the past.
I have always said that the Mongol invasions were not so much conquest as they were an extremely violent form of tourism.
It's the same today, but since people are lazy now, they're just rude and disrespectful. 🤣🤣🤣
@@lordgarion514 kek
It's still crazy to me how far they reached. From korea in the east to Moscow in the west.
A lil bit further than moscow but yeah
They reached not only Moscow. They reached to the Cechoslovakia, Poland Germany, Hungary & Austria Viena too. In Germany word prove it. Thal means in Mongolian Тал/steppe, thier side meaning.
They went all the way to borders with Bohemia bro
Part of America too
there is and was not so much of population in the middle of that space, that's why it was a little easier, i guess.
"If the Jin Empire and _everybody else_ didn't want to get conquered, then maybe they shouldn't have dressed like they were asking for it." -Chinggis, probably
Today is Chinggis Khan’s birthday, an official holiday in Mongolia.
In many ways this is very similar to most other Imperial Ideologies which just goes to show how material circumstances influence cultural identity. The Romans deified the emperors and believed they had an inherent right to rule the world and later Christianity led them to believe that their Empire was sacred and chosen by God to conquer the entire world, this belief would live on in the Byzantine Empire. The Arab Caliphate would also slowly develop the same ideas that they were chosen by God to conquer the world and spread Islam to all of the world and therefore war against anyone not already Muslim was justified. The Chinese Empire of course also believed that they had the divine Mandate of Heaven which made them the only legitimate rulers of the world and would demand tribute from far flung lands. The Aztecs believed that they had to continue conquering in order to satisfy their gods and anyone who resisted should be sacrificed to their gods. All of the European colonial empires justified their imperialism on the basis of religion saying that they had a divine mission to spread Christianity and would later start to believe in the idea of a semi-holy "Mission to Civilize" which of course meant to conquer and assimilate as much of the world as possible since specifically their culture was the only civilized one and chosen by God based on national myths. These days outright aggressive imperialist ideology which simply asserts that the country has an inherent right to invade is much less popular, but you do see countries often claiming a more secular right to aggressive actions such as the American idea of spreading democracy, which can justify aggression against seemingly any country regardless of how democratic it is or how often the US actually does create democracies, China seeming to re-assert old claims but now based on a more secular idea of China as a destined world power and most recently Russia in Ukraine which comes from an idea of sovereignty over all Slavic people.
Imperial ideologies are fairly predictable because they all result from similar needs and similar circumstances. If a country suddenly gains an enormous amount of power that will always lead people to conclude that said country was always destined to do this and the conquests that result from this must be justified so it is claimed as some sort of inherent right of the only legitimate power on Earth. On the surface they might appear very different but they all tend to converge among similar lines even if it might nave a non-imperialist or even anti-imperialist basis, as you could argue was the case for the US and China who both did at first legitimately support the dissolution of other empires.
Ubraines a use puppet though, they hunted pro rusian protestors and burned them in odesa burnings. Victorbruhia nuubland leaked phone calls and the usaes self admitted bio labs. As slav i have more fear coming from a democracy that has a stupid puppet dementia man that controls nukes and military bases around the world, rather than rusia. See ted gunderson to see who actually controls use.
I think Russia in Ukraine comes more from the idea that Russia is the only great nation in the world and can do no wrong, so all it's conquests and crimes are justified. In particular the soviet collapse is seen as an infiltration by foreigners and jews that was illegal and so Russia should be allowed to use military force on all their former colonies.
I would say the USs is more imperial without the empire
these imperialism ideologies are the very core that justify their conquest of the world. if history repeats then we are gonna have another country having that sort of imperialism ideologies
I don't think the Arabs were slow about getting it in thier head, from what I understand it was pretty much part of thier religion from day one. That and sleeping children.
This makes me wonder what the internal reaction was to the failed invasions of Japan.
Nothing specials. Becase almost 80% of the fleet were filled with unskilled chinese and korean troops. Also the ships were poorly made like its chinese and korean engineers intentionally built unsafe noncomplete ships. Because the foundings from underneath sea proves that those woods they built were simple not for battle and transport but for simple shipping boats. Thats explains why the it could not handle that sea storm.
@@t3ngrist620 They built ships made of chinesium
Been wanting for you to make this one for quite some time. It's here now!
thank you so mucho for making this videos! the motivations of the mongols are things that have always interested me but have never been able to fully understand
The founder of the Anatolian Seljuks was called "Kutalmışoğlu Süleymanşah" which is translated in English "Süleymanshah son of Qutgiven"
@@alfieingrouille1528 Did you even watch the video you genius? They also talk about Qut so its just a fun fact.
Makes me think of this phrase, Why does a Man climb a Mountain? Because it’s there.
Wow I wasn't expecting you to upload on my birthday, what a pleasant surprise 🤗
Genghis Khan conquered the world with the world's greatest military power. And it is common knowledge to everyone around the world that the Mongol Empire, which became the world's most powerful country, dominated the world. But until now, when I was learning world history, I never thought, 'Why did Genghis Khan conquer the world?' I learned a lot from this world history and war history video.
칭기스칸이 세계 1위의 군사력으로 세계를 정복했다. 그리고 세계최강대국이 된 몽골제국이 세계를 지배했다는건 전세계인들이라면 누구나 다 아는 기본상식이다. 하지만 나는 지금까지 세계사를 배울때 '칭기스칸은 왜 세계를 정복했을까?'라고 생각하진 않았다. 이 세계사, 전쟁사 영상은 많은 공부가 되었습니다.
The title "Chingis" is quite similar to the title "Dalai" of Dalai Lama. The word Chingis was likely a borrowed word from a Turkic language, which eventually evolved into a modern Mongolian word "Tengis", which means "Sea". Similarly, Dalai Lama's title "Dalai" means "Ocean" in Mongolian, basically conveying the meaning of great/vast.
It is the opposite, I'm a mongolian, "Tengis" means Ocean, and "Dalai" means "Sea"
Another fascinating video!
Fantastic video keep it up your doing amazing job
The Crimean Khans (Giray Dynasty) were descendants of Chinggis Khan. After they swore loyalty to the Ottoman Sultan, they enjoyed autonomy and respect that no other Ottoman vassal could enjoy, probably because of their ancestry.
In Ottoman protocol, when they met the Sultan, viziers, foreign diplomats and clergymen had to bow down and kiss his hands or skirts as a sign of loyalty and respect. Even Sultan's own Grandvizier. The exception was the Crimean Khan. When the Crimean Khan arrived at Sultan's court, Sultan would welcome him by standing up from his throne, hugging him and calling him his "brother". This respect continued until the 2nd Siege of Vienna, where Ottomans were kind of betrayed by their Crimean vassals. After Vienna, the Khan was reduced to the level of Grandvizier in protocol.
A little fun fact: When Murad IV was in death bed, he had a plan to destroy the entire remaining Ottoman dynasty and leave the throne to Girays, since he viewed his heirs extremely incompetent. He failed and Ibrahim I the Mad, one of the worst sultans in Ottoman history, survived and took power after his brother's death. So, there is an alternate universe somewhere that the Ottoman Empire was reorganized as the Giray Empire after 1640.
being descendant of Chinggis Khan（ ᠠᠯᠲᠠᠨ ᠣᠷᠣᠭ golden lineage） is utmost privilege a turco-mongol person can held in midevil world，temur cherish his “son in law of （genghis） ᠬᠦᠷᠭᠡᠨ/hurgen ” title more than emir or king，so when babur and his army enters indian sub continent，they perfer to call themselves “ghurkanis”
Can I just say, Mongols have the coolest names of anyone throughout history: Chinggis, Kublai, Ogedei, Kaidu, and so many more. Idk why I love Mongol names, they just sound badass.
Oh, right, can't forget Temujin.
Timur, Berke, Mongke, Hulagu, Subutai, Jebe etc.
Yeah, I guess they've made this names badass
Nope. It's just your imagination. It's purely based on bias.
It is pretty badass. Lots of Mongolian names are
Muslim names are the coolest to me, personally. Mongols are a real close second though.
I love this channel! One of the best! ❤❤❤
I'm still sad "Marco Polo" was cancelled by Netflix. I know these type of historical shows will change things around to tell a good story, so they're not historically accurate, but it sure was entertaining.
Benedict Wong was an intimidating Kublai Khan. It was interesting to see how the Mongols rule and how all these other groups were all under the Khan. How they control the silk road and everything.
Well like the change up in fight sequences ruined that... but to be fair at the end they started Kung fuing the fuck out of it over letting it be a story about the empire and marco polo's exploitd.
Let it be remembered, that Temujin (Chinggis), only wanted to live a peaceful life with his family.
However, the world didn't let him, constantly having to fight off bandits, and enemie clans wanting to oust him, and not to mention, kidnapp his wife, which they succefully did.
The man had to hide away in the forest for many years of his life and live on the run, while dealing with wife and children of his own. And having been born into family rivalry, rumored to been forced to kill his very own brother over scraps of food, while they suffered hardship after being exiled from their clan when their father died.
After succesfully rescuing his wife. I guess the Temujin had enough, realizing that nomatter how much you try to avoid conflict. Conflict will find you.
So the only way one can be sure to be able to keep a peacefull life in the steppes was to bring the Conflict to them!
A simple man, who wanted to live a simple life, ending up creating the largest empire the world has ever seen.
If anything, his world conquest didn't start before he was a Middle aged man of the era. (He was within his 30's or so if I'm not mistaken).
If anything is to give you inspiration but you feel to old to do certain stuff, or begin to learn something new. Remember, Chinggis Khan conquered majority of the world in his 30's.
@Kings and Generals ever considering making a dedicated video covering all of Temujins life? From the legends and rumors to the ones documented in records? It's definitely one of those life stories that worthy of an epic movie.
What many historian failed to teach and many people failed to realize is that the true reason of kings waging war is to unite the world and to bring peace.
Even after consolidating his rule over his people and the steppes, this thing that was quickly becoming an empire, needed to conquer and claim more loot to survive. After like a decade of conquering the clans and their neighbors his people got used to all the new goods and resources of the eastern and western world. It's like building a strong foundation for your nation only to realize that your best intentions means the death and subjugation of entire civilizations because to go back to a simple life means your nation will self destruct
@@herbthompson8937 it goes into detail in Genghis Khan and the Making of the Modern World by Jack Weatherford. It goes from his childhood to the black plague and the end of the Mongol Empire as we know it. Doesn't talk about the more heinous acts of his life. Which I'm like 50/50 on if it was Chingis or his descendents who did the truly horrible stuff. Either way, it's a good read.
"The greatest happiness is to scatter your enemy and drive them before you. To see his cities reduced to ashes. To see those who love him shrouded, and in tears. And to gather to your bosom his wives and daughters." - Genghis.
Stop kidding yourself, trad-cu cks. He did it all for personal ambition and lust for conquest.
Chingiz truly lived in a society😔😔😩😩
Their history is surely impressive, there should be more epic series/movies/games about this whole world domination insanity of theirs…
If only he had more portals, dimensions, transporters, and enchantments.
Enchantment?
Enchantment!
And some attack helicopters, mlrs, ballistic cruise missiles and heavy machine guns😔
And Transformers.
The historical Mongols were a federation of heterogenous groups of different nomad peoples of "Tartar" and also Türkish origin. The word "Mongol" is derived from the name of a tribe called Mongɣol or Manqol. Even if the cultural levels of these ethnic groups were different, they had a common language and a common culture which made their unification under the hand of a strong leader easier. In 1206, Temüjin (1155 or 1167-1227) of the Borjigid line of the Mongɣol adopted the title of Great Khan (qaɣan, in Chinese kèhán! 可汗). He is known as Činggis Qaɣan (Genghis Khan). Under his leadership the Mongols destroyed the Western Xia 西夏 (1038-1227) and Jin 金 (1115-1234) empires and conquered central Asia. The successors of Činggis Qaɣan created the largest empire that ever existed in premodern history. Yet this empire soon disintegrated into several states (ulus), one of which was China, ruled by the Yuan dynasty 元 (1279-1368) that was founded by Qubilai Qaɣan (Emperor Shizu 元世祖, r. 1260-1294), a grandson of Činggis.
I once heard that the greatest plot twist in history is that the Mongols did not actually finish conquering the world. What are your thoughts on that?
not too far from the truth, tbh.
They conquered most of the known world at the time so they were pretty close
Just like all great empires they mostly fell to infighting and stagnation once their golden age was behind them.
Seeing how their are so many Modern Men That have Chinggis DNA in them , I'd say the conquest continues 😆
Would have loved to see them conquer Europe
Thanks for the video and information
Awesome video! ⚔
Another awesome video on an unexpected day! Thanks for shedding some light on Mongol ideology. Looking forward to seeing more on the Mongols. And for Wizards and Warriors: What if the Mongols (in spite of their sailing skills) discovered the Americas?
Mongol vs Comanche/Prairie horse archers would be a sight to see.
Also. Never kill or harm the messengers. Mongols also respected the envoys and messenger of othe nations. But anytime the western or Eastern kingdoms decided to be petty and kill or maime Mongols envoys. Pretty was them signing their people death certificate.
That's just not the case.
The Russian prince of Ryazan, the first to encounter Batu Khan's invaders, received Mongol embassy exceptionally well and even send his own son as ambassador to Batu's camp with rich gifts.
At first Batu praised the princeling and said there's no plan to attack Ryazan but then casually suggested that the princeling should bring his own wife to Batu as a gift too. When the princeling naturally refused, Batu slaughtered him and the entire embassy, laying the Ryazan princedom to ruin next.
@@Diofill37 Quite an annoying bunch
Love this!
Videos like that would be very interesting for other well known empires like the British or mughals
Just wanted to have good neighbours. But it's hard. Having no neighbour is better than having bad one LOL
Great production
How many videos on Mongol history do K&G have in store for us I wonder? :D
Yes :-)
Not everything should be Eurocentric.
1. Because Genghis Khan's ambitions were on the highest level.
2. Because Mongols before Temujin's appearance were weak, small people and wanted to become a united, strong nation.
3. Because other conquerors (Tatars, Merkits, Chinese, Kyrgyz) always attacked Mongol lands and killed many of them. So, Mongols had to take revenge.
Facts💯👏👏👏

At the end of the battle of the Indus, Genghis khan said the following about Jalal al-Din:[42][10][43][37]
A father should only have such a son. Whether he escaped from the fiery battlefield and came to the brink of salvation from the whirlwind of destruction, great deeds and great revolts will still come from him!
Though considered a successful warrior and a general, Jalal al-Din is considered a poor ruler and his loss of re-established empire to the Mongol is attributed to the poor rulership of him. Jalal al-Din had enmity with all of his neighbours which resulted in Jalal's calls to form alliance against the Mongol army of Chormaqan being dismissed by all other Muslim kingdoms. Though historians agree that Jalal al-Din inherited these enmities from his father and predecessros.[1][3]
Yes he was great general poor politician tho
Yeap. The guy was a Great military General.

Turkic tengrism rank;
Kağan (khagan) - If you win a battle, this title is awarded. you must be of khan lineage
Han (Khan) - The title of khan was given only to the royal family. it was given to whoever was on the throne
Ulu Han (great khan) - The state was given to the khans who reached superpower. and there should only be one Uluhan in the world. Therefore, wars broke out frequently between the Turkic Khanates. Ex: Golden Horde- Timur war, Ottoman- Timur war …
Hakan (Khakahan) This title is one superior to the Uluhan rank. Awarded to the khan that dominates the whole world.
Tengrikut (Tengri-Kut)- means received blessing from god. It is the highest rank that the Turkish-Mongol royal class can reach. Only the Great Hun Emperor Metehan could reach this rank.

You are not an oghuz turk. Turks of Turkey are %30 Central Asian %70 Local Anatolian(i found this on a website called turkishdnaproject, made by Turks). Your ancestors are both Turkmens and the Roman citizens of Eastern Roman Empire. And you are rejecting %70 of your ancestors because of your upbringing.

My father's side are Yörüks (nomads) and they have highly Asian features and my mother's side is Turks from Caucasia who migrated to Central Anatolia during a Russo-Turkish war in 19thC.
Concepts of ethnicity, nationality and race are different. I am ethnicially an Oguz Turk, my nationality is none since I reject to belong in any nations which are made up abstract identities designed to enslave people, and my race is a hybrit of Siberian, Aryan, Anatolian and native Caucasian races. And I embrace all my roots without a shame or denial.
@@yaltavar There is no fury or angry but if you call yourself neo-tengrist oghuz turk, that, from the first glance, looks like you are rejecting that part.
Most of the Turkish nationals on the internet are completely ignoring their ancestry in this matter. I commend you that you are the minority.
It just seems illogical to me that whats the point of being a tengrist, a highly traditional and local religion or belief, when most of your ancestors were not tengriist. But I cant judge anyone.
So yeah, sorry if that came off as aggressive.
@@thefaramith8876 Philosophy behind Tengrism (I mean early Tengrism) is beautiful, and I think it offers solution to all our modern issues with nature and society. I recommend you to read studies of Turkologists about early Tengrism/Shamanism. Then to think how it can be reformed to modern times.
Have a nice day. Take care.
@@buyanjargal143 your mom is mongolian
Nice video, please do mongol videos
This was so interesting without fanboying the Mongols violence.
"Because it's there!"
-Chinggis, probably
Fun fact: I learned it from *ahem* secret someone, he said: mostly it was the other country's desire to enslave Mongolians (We were strong, hardened and useful potential slave force from steppes, that does not kill themselves like Japanese for example, when enslaved and taken. Our belief was that none should suicide no matter what, but fight to live off your best possible life because your/everyone's life is the most valuable thing). So our ideology/belief and our circumstances forced us to start "stop slavery in Asia at least" - kind of conquest. Apparently back in the day slavery was a big thing, and nowadays people does not really consider it that much, when talking about life back in the day. Remember: Khaan is not just some kind of mindless conqueror, they are slaves to their people's will and wellness. Not only Khaan but Mongolians fought for their lost sons and daughters to slavery, to find them or at least find out what happened to them. Mongolia was sort of good breeding ground for slaves, "they" took what was extra and left just enough men and women to reproduce for the next year's/generation's abduction by constant raids, like a human agriculture... There are even stories about Mongolian slaves in FAR ITALY, just think about how far was the slavery web connections. For Mongolians conquering the world was nothing compared to their willingness to find their lost relatives and so on. And that is how Mongolian armies was created, essentially. Because maintaining armies just by enough gold and fortune is not good enough for the longevity of the army, YOU NEED REASONS. And because of Mongol Empire, taking slaves from Asia became to be not an option or at least not an easy option for "westerners and others", soo they just resorted to taking slaves from Africa instead... WHAAAT. Do you ever considered WHY some people (even young generation of Europeans themselves) say that England or some other countries was built by the blood of slaves? So sorry Africans and African-Americans or black Americans, you just kind of became the alternate sacrificial chess piece instead of Asians, if you look at bigger picture of world history... PS: And yes I am a Mongolian. Believe it or not, that is your choice, it is just what I learned.
What a twisted way to justify the barbarism of the Mongols
I needed to write a easy on the mongols
love it from Mongolia this all true
6:09 "Earliest deees"
Man that was a little funny-sounding lol
Make a video on Alexander the greats reasons for wanting to conquer the world
The way the strongest family member can rule was similar to the Scottish system "tanistry".
So, "Bulgha" means rebels. It sounds like a nice name for a nation.
Text should be vertical ;) 11:55
As a Turkish speaker we use "kut" as root for many words such as, "kut-lu (blessed, happy)", "kut-sal (holy)", "kut-lama (celebration)", "kut-sama (blessing)"
Today, November 24 is Chinggis Khaan's birthday.
Th, I think the reason was, to quote the 1st man to reach the top of the Everest: "Because it was there".
Read Abhijit Chavda view on Mongol Genghis khan. Because many mongols agree to that view.
(9:50) Shouldn't the title of the video not be - 'Why the Chinggisid *Dynasty* wanted to...', given that we've come to know now that Chinggis wasn't the aggressive conquerour that he is sometimes portrayed to be?
This is good. But what is best in life?
There was a parallel to what the Mongols did and what the European Empires did in the 17th 18th and 19th Century.
Other than themselves, they didn't see other civilisations as fellow human beings
They were their to be conquered and exploited.
Nah, the parallel is to what the Europeans did in the crusades, even before the Mongols. They literally slaughtered entire cities because they deemed them as infidels.
Gotta respect the Mongols for their impressive tactics 👍
Empire was turkic, army was turkic, script was based on uyghur script, medieval mongol was more like turkic language and for example Chinese medieval annal Mengdabeilu says mongols came from Shatuo Turks and were of turkic origin
Genghis used Seljuk tactics, like in Manzikert battle
@@numeron509 Yeah but nobody call it the turkic empire, so shut up, the turk was just the commoners and servants to be ordered around, while the ruling class are Mongol.
Yeah everyting is turk right ? Moron
@@numeron509 no bro seljuks were known for their chivalry and discipline
while Mongols were known for their speed
surprises and brutally
They say luck but maybe his gods really did back him, I mean a 25 year long good weather period in a place that rarely has good weather??
There's a reason the Sardukar saw themselves as the descendants of the Mongols, or at the very least, willingly took on their culture
A "Khan" is simply a leader of extended household or a leader of a several merged households. Similar to a Sicilian (Italy) leader of extended household is called a "Don". Jang-He (Chinggis) Khan means leader of each and all households or War Leader or Commander in chief (USA). "Jang-He" in Persian-corrupted-form is "Jahan-Gir" meaning Universe-Conqueror.

Why are there 2 min long adds. What's the matter with you youtube!!!!!!!!
Chinggis was like Goku, he wanted to push his limits.
4:10-4:35 This was also the tradition in the Ottoman Empire
It is wrong to say that shamans are weaker then the khaans but rather it was a idea of separation of the state and religion just like modern day USA. Yes religion is important but are not to get involve in state politics.
anyone know the soundtract at 12:30 thanks in advance
"Because it's there."
Genghis Khan responding to a reporter asking why he wanted to conquer the world, before beheading him and his entire city. 1224.
Kings and Generals, could you make a video about Genghis khan's best general, Mukhali, who surpassed Subodei in military feats.
Anyone got some more recommendations of other YT Channels in this type of format?!? 🙏🏻
No, we are the only one.

i dont know if you’re proud of yourselves but i sure am proud of you for going out of your way to pronounce it Chingis Khan, as should be, even if nobody was going to correct you for saying Genghis Khan
Futile question. Such question can be applied to any warring people, conqueror, anglo-French-Roman-German wars; or recently Falkland, Slavian, Korean, Vietnam, Iraq, Libya. List is long.
