I read bad thing in the English Wikipedia, Catherine talking about Sahin's circumissed penis , can i guess bad thing brother ?
I don’t think I’ve ever seen such a big collab, I was so happy when I saw yours and Eastern Roman history’s RUclips channel in the collab
As a crimean tatar, I can say that Crimean khanate was unfortunately doomed to fall to Russia because its fate was very much intertwined with Ottoman Empire which was already in a perpetual state of decline.
Not quite fair... All Empires of that time were in decline a lot of the shame piled on the Ottomans is not fair
Crimean Tatar here 👋 thanks for telling our history 💛💙🔱
RIP. Despite the slavery and all, Crimean Khanate always fascinated me as a unique mix of settled and nomadic civilizations.
Last Mongols in Europe
the crimean khanate did some really awful stuff but czarist russia just like other colonial powers was on a whole other level of evil .
So proud to be part of #ProjectUkraine =) amazing videos by all the great content creators! 🇺🇦

A lot of great Mongol history include in this playlist as well!
So glad to be working with you to raise money for a good cause
Interesting figure. Honestly, it's a bit embarrassing how little I knew about him, given the proximity and interconnections between the Crimean Khanate and the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. There are certainly some parallels between him and his contemporary - Stanisław August Poniatowski, the last King of Poland and Grand Duke of Lithuania, who also remains a controversial figure.
Great video thank you
very interesting, I never even heard of him and knew nothing about the history of this khanate
I don't think I could ever answer that question but I can't help feeling bad for him.
Nice
Well done
Irish exiled soldier D'Arcy instrumental in conquest of Crimea made Marshall of Russia and estates in Lithuania where he is buried but not forgotten another Irishman of the " Wild Geese " .
As a descendent of the Ottomans, I can tell you for certain that too much religion and not enough technological innovation is a short cut to the decline of an empire. Russia and other less religious empires triumphed after the Gutenberg press whereas the Ottomans, Safavids, Arabs all went backwards. Also didn't help that we didn't educate the women which made up half the population. To summarise: faith is good but too much faith teaches us that the Spanish Armada didn't bring Catholism to England and too much religion made the Ottomans the sick man of Europe. Counter arguments are welcome but history tells us the above to be a recurring theme
By descendant, do you mean Osmanoğlu, or just Turkish?
I agree with your analysis on technological stagnation, but I don't blame that on religion. I think the Muslims had a superiority complex which prevented them from modernizing, even as they were beginning to lose more and more.
And when they finally had no choice but to wake up, it was too late.
Up until that point, the Muslims had dominated the trade routes of the world (the Silk Road, Trans-Saharan route, and Indian Ocean maritime route). They also regularly dominated disbelieving states, either conquering or vassalizing them, built on the back of incorporating useful technologies whenever they could (administrative reforms, paper, gunpowder).
In the case of the Ottomans, incorporating Persian and Byzantine administrative practices to create a centralized bureaucracy (relative to the rest of Europe and the Middle East), and using gunpowder technology in their armies (which helped them crush their neighbors), led to victory after victory for centuries. But slowing down conquests (causing stagnation in the sipahi system) and internal corruption (especially from janissaries who refused to let their power be reduced) led to them losing their edge.
I'm sure some corrupt officials teamed up with clerics at times, but the clerics can hardly be blamed for it all.
When the Portuguese circumnavigated Africa and established alternative trade routes which ultimately bankrupted the Mamluks, that should have been a wakeup call for the Muslim powers. And it did, for a time. But once the threat seemed to be over, with Castile capturing Portugal, they went back to the way things always were.
And that's my point. The status quo, "the way things always were", the superiority complex. The Muslim polities were confident that this was just a brief stroke of luck by the Westerners that would soon be reversed. That level of arrogance is similar to how the Abbasid caliph mocked the Mongols when they demanded he surrender Baghdad.
Again, I'm not saying that clerics are blameless, but the main culprits are the corrupt and arrogant officials who didn't bother with reforms, especially if they would impede on their power. That led to decentralization and stagnation. And when they found out they needed to upgrade, the most they could do is a band-aid solution (buying European arms, hiring European officers and relying on European investors), which prevented them from building up their own power reliably.
As for "too much" religion, that is very subjective. Being less religious doesn't equal success. The Arab Gulf states are arguably the most religious Muslim countries in the modern world, but they had no problem with inviting European expertise to take advantage of their natural resources and newfound wealth. Now you have states like Qatar (historically an irrelevant backwater) punching well above its weight on the global stage through investments and diplomacy. Compare that with Venezuela, which was blessed with similar resources and wealth, but squandered it all on short-term projects.
the decline was due to corruption, infighting and short-sighted policies.
religion does play a role but not as you're describing it, or else the various secular subsaharan african states would be rich.
@@tonzo-cp6mp I see your well thought out reply and I raise you the Spanish Armada. Too much religion is bad, will be the theme I will continue with, but swap Islam as our subject, to Christianity.
The Spanish were the main power in Europe back when Britain was a far flung backwater isolated in the north Atlantic, the Dutch were nowhere near and the French couldn't compete with the Spanish. One day, they decided to launch an Armada to teach the Protestant upstarts a lesson and bring them back to Catholicism. The Armada was costly and didn't achieve its aims. It was the catalyst that started the Spanish decline and the ascension of the British as the main colonial power. The British were not laboured with the "too much religion" thing, so committed their efforts to innovation in seafaring and science. The subsequent centuries since have proved beyond any doubt that the low fat, protestant approach was far more effective. This is why we are typing in English and why English is the language of the world. It could have been Spanish. It could have been Turkish.
The reason why Spanish or Turkish is not the language of the world is because the clerics and religious minds decided to push orthodoxy rather than mobilise man and machine for innovation.
Back to our original theme: Turks and Islam. There was a point when the Islamic world lead global science, algebra, astrology and the arts. Lets remember that the Renaissance arrived after the Turks brought it to Europe and the Italians ran with it. But, somewhere along the way, the ruling class thought it would be a good idea to play down the importance of the printing press, literacy and the education of both men & women. Some would argue that turning more towards religion was at the cost of innovation and progress. We can see this today if we walk around the streets of London, compared to Istanbul or Ankara. Even though the Ottomans ruled for 600 years, far longer than the British, they dont have much to show for such a long period of riches. Sultan Mehmed was by far, the richest man on the planet at that time. Those riches and culture went somewhere. Where did it go? Went down the same hole that the Spanish lost their riches to while trying to be the upholders of global Catholicism.
Infighting and internal corruption predates the Battle of Talas in the context of Turks who were late on the Islam scene. Like you said the Abbasids have their ego to blame for the devastating loss to the Mongols who were not known to be religious. This reiterates my point that innovation is stifled by too much religious vigour. No world leading power is laboured with the words of their respective religious clerics, but focus more on expansion and innovation.
Al-Salam alikom
Does anyone knows where his sons went to? I found out they settled somewhere in the Ottoman Empire, but where is that place?
please cover ottoman Georgian war 1757-58. Love good ottomans from Bangladesh.
Can you made portuguese ottomans wars on the future ?
With unstable successions to the throne and infighting they were doomed thus it should be no surprise.
I know him from magnificent century , yeah they're not making it accurately but i can know about him , can you do about selamet giray? I think that can bring more views from south east Asia because selamet is Also an south east Asian name , they Will be changed of know that there's a muslim ruler in Ukraine that have selamet name , it's an javanized Arab name in Java indonesia, it's come from Salamah but for male name , but now many people know that's native Indonesia name , overproud Indonesian Will come to you videos for seeing an crimean ruler named selamet
It’s weird how Ahmed I was born in 1590 yet here it says that Sahin Giray was born in late 1700. Are they wrongly represented in Magnificent Century Kosem?
no there is another şahin giray
Bayraktar TB2 için teşekkürler!
Turkic rule in Ukraine is actually way longer than Slavic rule in Ukraine. Turkic empires ruled Ukraine 1000+ years Hunnic Empire, Onogurs, Utigurs, Kutrigurs, Saragurs, Avar Khaganate, Old Great Bulgaria, First Bulgarian Empire, Khazar Empire, Pecheneg Khanate, Cumania, Golden Horde aka Kipchak Khanate, Crimean Khanate, Ottoman Empire and others while Slavic rule on Ukraine is not even 500 years old Cossack Hetmanate, Tsardom of Russia, Russian Empire, Soviet Union and Russia/Ukraine
Kyivan Rus, hello? foundation of Kyiv in 500 AD? Before them there were Slavic tribes aka Polans, Drevlyans, Severians etc. What you are describing are plots of lands in the sout, south-east of Ukraine
And Greek rule in Anatolia was over 1000 years.
@@jabronis33 gay eek also ruled by the Turkish.
@@jabronis33 no max 700
@@jabronis33 count those Hellenic states which ruled Anatolia🤣 Turkic rule is longer than Hellenic rule
Well it's sound like the giray family destroyed it self
Yeah really
Why the ottomans didnt modernize their military to make more conquests and Avoid losing wars and collapsing as final result of these loses!!!! I think the response is simple. They were afraid that if they strengthen their army they could overthrow them.
Actually they tried many times but couldnt change the fate. All the empires fall eventually…
@@zeynacasas9294 yes it's the fate of all empire to fall. What I did was emphasis that the main reason for the fall of the Ottoman Empire, was the vicious circle of strengthening the army that leads to the possibility of them turning against them, and that happened several times, and this prompted them to neglect the army except to the extent that preserves security within the empire, and after several defeats. they began to reform the army in the 19th century. This led to the army's coup of 1908 against Sultan Abdul Hamid, and the final overthrow of the Ottoman Empire in 1922.
@@samirhachad643 There were coups even in 14th and 15th centruies. This is nothing to do with the coups. In reality Ottoman Empire collapsed a long time ago before 1922.
@@zeynacasas9294 all the coups in 14th and 15th centuries were instigated by members of the ottoman family.
and about the 1922, for me the collapse began when they lost the great Turkish war (1683-1699), but 1922 is the official date.
Lets do the same for Syrian, Iraqi, Palestinian ……and other refugee
Ikr, where was all this for the middle east? Yemeni refugees too.
Bro did you watch the commercial in the beginning! This money goes to the jews, specifically those associated with Jewish Holocaust museum in Kiev. Since Syria, Iraq, and the Gaza Strip don’t have a large Jewish population/organization you will NOT seem the same thing being done for them. If you think that this fundraiser is going to the average “working joe’s” in Ukraine that have been affected the most by this war - think again. This should make it clear as to why nothing like this has been done for those that aren’t controlled by the tribe.
Where are ukranians in all this
they are the people that lived and still continue to live in modern Ukraine and they played a major part in Ukrainian history
@@romanpopyk 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 since 1945
Trusted the Kaafirs and found them totally untrustworthy
True, but clinging to the Ottomans would have only delayed the inevitable. They were relics from previous centuries, unwilling or unable to reform and challenge the disbelievers.
@@tonzo-cp6mp they still should have stayed with the Muslim group, or at least been neutral
Looks like it was bound to fall to russia.
Crimean nobility should have accepted Russian rule and work on westernizing the land. They could have been like Finland under Tzarist rule
No
@@serhansali Why not?
