The most unlucky position in mongol army: envoys
Why?
@@RIFLQ Everyone kills them for some reason.
I've wondered about that. Every time a Khan wants to attack someone, they kill or mutilate some Mongol envoys. Convenient... on the other hand, why would the frigging Great Khan need to manufacture a cassus belli? Wouldn't the fact that other states exist be excuse enough?
@@robertmiller9735 kwarazamian empire guy killed Genghis' envoys so the mongols could attack him and get tired through a seige then counterattack them and get territory. However he thought they were just typical nomads and got very surprised when they came with Chinese seige engineers. Then he lost his empire and escaped. Then he came back and steam rolled the local population since mongols killed most of them and they decide to keep it. Then after reconquering his old lands the mongols came back and killed him and permanently took the land this time
The mongol envoy had been killed by so many countries/cultures of people that universities would kill for lol
They had a very sophisticated and well designed military system. Impressive.
Well they did pave the way from inventing the first Gun compared to what the Chinese tried so I ain’t too surprised how advanced they are
They didn’t conquer all that land by luck. They had to have certain military advantages in order to beat all those armies, especially since they were usually outnumbered
The story of the Mongols was most astonishing, too bad Chinggis Khan's descendants were perhaps the most short sighted people on earth.
@@DaMartialAthlete yes some certain military advantages is needed.
Military strategy, intelligence, the quality of the army is more better than quantity. For example, 1,000 elite veterans can defend a well fortified fort or castle against a big army for a long time if they had enough supplies and weaponry.
On the field of battle, it mostly depends on the commander and generals when deploying troops and formations. Since on open field one must know that quality and quantity can change the battle just as much as strategies can.
Quality troops (elites, veterans, etc) can be of the vanguard or reserved force, or some generals prefer some hand picked men (elite) to be flanking. Either way the army's core relies on combat experience, supplies of food and equipments.
I may be wrong, but I been playing too much games and watching too much movies.
yes but they did not have anything other than personal loyalty to keep the military system loyal to the great khan.

It's amazing how he's basically the only English person I know that says Chingis/Chinggis instead of Genkhis Khan
Chinggis is the actual mongol pronunciation of the name. Its historically accurate. Genghis was thirdhand pronunciation brought in from marco polo and traders.
My father always pronounced his name as Chingus Khan, I never understood why.
Turks call him Cengiz(Jengiz)
Hey
We Croats call him Džingis which is close enough

as a Mongolian i want all of you to visit my beautiful country after the pandemic
Great idea (unless if it was a trap and soon will find ourselves encircled by mounted archers) but seriously I've been wondering what happened to the Mongols they were very loud in medieval times but now they are very quiet you rarely hear anything from there, like if they have secretly moved to another planet long ago!
I would like to but its very far away

Hey, I saw that movie about the boy and the ping-pong ball!
No offense, but i still hate you after 800 years for burning our "wikipedia" at that time.
Let’s not ignore the fact they had arguably 3 of the greatest generals that ever lived in temujin, subatai and jebei
Muqali was also amazing, undefeated throughout his life. Very underrated.
you are not taking Khalid Bin waleed and Hannibal into your three greatest. Lol
Not to mention they had guns and grenades
Equivalent to Manstein, Guderian and Rommel for greatness
Khalid Subutai was a better general than both of these people anyway,his strategies were so forward thinking that people would only start adopting them hundreds of years later.
Explains how Chinggis Khan was able to run such a massive empire. He really understood how to establish stability through discipline and a sense of unity.
Discipline and obedience is already a steppe tradition, likewise for Turks who migrated to dealers, there is a saying that Emir cuts the iron.
İron> demir(turkish)
delegation of power is the way to get more power... see how he granted engagement autonomy to even his foot soldiers
Even today, in Hindi, Bangla, and Urdu and other south Asian languages for almost 2 billion people, the word "Bahadur" means someone who is brave and capable. Even some modern military honors here has the word "bahadur" in it.
Also "Bogatyr" in Russian. Funnily enough, one of the major pastimes of bogatyrs in Russian legends is fighting *against* various steppe nomads and especially Mongols. :-) Though to be fair, the word was apparently adopted into Russian from Turkic tribes centuries before the Mongolian invasion.
It’s a Turkic origin name. Means brave, hero, warrior. Its quite popular name in cantral asia, Azerbaijan, Iran and Turkey.
Since Gengiz khan’s army had more Turkic soldiers and Turkic language & names also spread widely.
@@user-wp7kg6qw1g It’s a Mongol word you Anatolian kurdish/greek blood mutt. These words are from the original Hunnu empire also called as the Xiongnu. They were Mongolic speakers just like the Rouran Khanate.
@@Mongol1232 🦃🇲🇳🎪
Perhaps the most admirable trait of the Mongol Army is their constant willingness to adapt new tactics and technology to compensate for the limitations of their style of steppe warfare. They were so adaptive that they usually "go native" with the peoples they conquer.
I find Mongol history fascinating but I know a lot less than I'd like! Thanks for the video!
@GoodGirlKate yes!
aw man there is so much about the mongols that we know, and so much just shrouded in mystery.. mongols didn't write much lol so most of what we know is through otuside accounts of the time, or through archaeological finds ect.

@@KingsandGenerals Привет и Скажи мне Был Крестовый поход на Монголию🇲🇳⚔🇵🇹✝️
Here are the literal translation of terms shown here, and their modern versions. I put correct old terms in a bracket
Bara'un-qar - Baruun gar - Right hand ( or wing )
Jun-qar - Zuun gar - Left hand ( or wing )
Ordu - Ord - Tent or Palace ( High command)
Arban - Arvan - Ten ( Unit designation)
Jagun (Jigun) - Zuun - Hundred ( Unit designation)
Minggan - Myangan - Thousand (Unit designation)
Tumen - Arvan Myangan - Ten Thousand (Tumen is not used a lot in modern Mongolian)
Kheshig - Khishig - Gift or Favor
Khevtuul - Khevtuul - The ones who are lying down (Night guards)
Turaqut (Torguud) - Torgon Tsereg - Silks or The ones who wear silk
Bahadur (Bagatur) - Baatar - Hero or Brave one
Qorchi (Khorchi) - Khorchin - Bow maker or bearer (archaic word)
There are currently multiple Mongolian clans who bear military names such as Tumed, Torguud, Khorchin, Myangad
Is there a standard for Mongolian English transliteration? I read a bit on Mongolian history and encountered the terms presented in this video, but each book I read spells the terms differently. Could it be due to pronounciation shift from Middle Mongolian to Modern Mongolian; or simply due to different transliteration system?
For instance, is it "Khatangku Dehel" or "Hatangu Deel"?
It is due to modern mongolian dropping g between vowels in favor of double vowels and lack of distinction between (o,u), (ts, ch) and (ö, ü). Last but not least latin alphabet lacks necessary letters to make proper sound. For example хаган or хаан means king could be written khagan, khaghan, qagan, etc.
@@jackusall modern khalkha mongolian（mongolia‘s mongolian） is heavily influenced by tibetans after they converted to tibetan buddhism in late 17th，they borrowed Consonant like ts tz to mongolian oral language
Correction: Arvan - Aravt
Zuun- Zuut
Myangan - Myangat
Tumen- Tumt
That's how we mongolian count army correctly.
1999 Amy Wrong. All the pronunciation is established from ancient mongol words. Nowadays most of them has been changed little bit b little bit due to time flows.
as a Mongolian, truly loved your contents! Keep up the great work!

Only reason to join keshik was to not join the redshirt envoys.

My favourite part of history - Mongol Empire. It always amazes me that they were conquering countries like Poland and Japan in almost same time (thousands of miles difference)
@@levinng2004 That's a great point.
North Lord: very true. It's hard to envision this when you look at Mongolia today, which ranks 105 out of 138 countries in military power, but in the 12th century, Mongolia was the TOP DOG empire without a doubt.
I specialise in islamic empires and my favorites are ottomans and I wonder what would happen if ottomans never lost at Vienna and kf suleyman never killed mustafa as he thought he was threatign to kill him
They never conquered Japan, though? They got routed twice.

Indeed Genghis aka temujin was a genius of his time.... Made a formidable army from a nearly no where place. Magnificent great khan.👍
They also had The Hu like bands in the army to lift the spirits.
Can we not ignore genghis khan arguably invented insurance by compensating the dead soldiers family
Amazing the Bodyguard is so loyal to Genghis Khan in contrast to the Roman Praetorian Guard to Roman Emperors.
That was one leader, Praetorian oversaw generations. Give the Mongol bodyguards time they would've devolved into the same opportunist behavior.
Some of the royal guards might have been even childhood friends with the khan and princess because they were sons of generals and captains who most likely lived very close with the khans ger.
@@zackosborn1731 Then again the praetoerians also started their habit of killing emperors with the third emperor already
@@JasonDoe1000
Yeah shame the Emperor's didn't do a Praetorian Purge ASAP.
@@BLODADA
Yeah Praetorians not being childhood friends with the Emperor may play a role too.
Mukhali was the 1st non-biological King"Taychi" nominated by Genghis himself, he was a slave under the Jurkin, a clan within Khamag confederacy beside Khiyat "RouRan survivors saved from Gökturks by geese chirping" (royal family) & Taychiud, he was Genghis's 1st bodyguard before Jebe(arrow)
Kawabata A “Nucker” maybe
It's incredible to see Mongolian leader to create one of the greatest unit army on history. More effective and efficient make mongol empire can conquer so many land. Thanks for genghis khan and also subutei and jebei
Actually Chinggis Khan and Qarachar noyan had same ancestor- Bodonchar Munkhag
Qarachar noyan was the head of Barlas tribe which later become one of the main tribes of Chagatai Khanate

Mongol dicipline was upmost level. Even chengis khan give death order to his grandson who didnt listen his commander(probably low born). Other generals made a lot of effort to change his mind.
Every army should know there's no such thing as royal or family relationships when being in the army.
If you seen Three kingdoms 2010 a tv show, I forgot which episode it was ..
The grand commander (highest rank in the army of three kingdoms era)
Said to his son "There's no family relationships when your in the army"
Because once in the army you must follow military laws which were of course strict.
@@koreancowboy42 Of course, I agree with you
@@koreancowboy42 that depends on what era or what type of army. Just look at medieval army in europe.

@@ls200076 We would never truly know which was the closest (came from which language group) because there was never a linguistic scholar(s) within Turkic or Mongolic civilisations throughout history that wrote papers throughout the centuries on the subect so that modern scholars were able to find the root of the source unlike the Rime table. But what we do know is that the Xiongnu were the first steppes confederacy to organise their military in a decimal system. And both Turkish and Mongolian historians cite Chinese historiography sources on the matter. Mongolian historians argue that Xiongnu were proto-Mongol. Turkish argue otherwise. Western historians tend to argue a mix of languages and groups composing the Xiongnu. Scant writing and written form of what the Xiongnu spoke remains.

Interesting fact, most of the Turkish army still uses many of these terms: boluk, ordu, tugay, albay. Also present in the civilian sector: yargitay, danistay, kurultay etc...
But was it used during Ottoman times or it was created after Turks started to coin new identity?
@@Singgen
You mean Turkish national identy had to be built from the ground up with bits and pieces that left after the overthrown of sultanate?
Was it similar with South Korean having to create a new national identity for the legitimate claimant of Old Korea is Pyongyang government and they were not?
@@thanakonpraepanich4284 Well, its not like they built up Turkish identity from zero. It's just the main was Ottoman, I believe. They even changed the language and expelled all non turkic words which where a lot AFAIK. It could be up to 80-90% words of Persian or Arabic origins. But grammatically it was still a Turkic language.
But I suppose that's what I meant.
And I have zero ideas about South Korean history) One day. I suppose I will get to them.
Yes, because the words are turkish.
@sülüman Well, I'm not surprised that 11th century texts are more easier for you. I suppose it was the main source for new Turkish literature standart language.
Well, Ottoman "Turkish" is understandable. It was an empire. Unlike with Russian Empire or some other, the majority of subjects weren't just Turks but many other Arabians and Persians as well.
And at this point of history the idea of nation haven't yet existed or was developed, I believe. Or at least Ottoman Empire was a product of such times so Turkic identity wasn't the prevailing one given the surroundings.
Thanks for clarifying!
Amazing Information & easy to Understand. Hard work thanks

If Genghis hadn't split his empire among his sons, the Mongol could have survived a lot longer.
I think that his oldest son Zuch build new country before die Chingis khan. Because Zuch had problem with his brothers. Chingis khan didn't want civil war. However Chingis khaan split his empire.
He didn't thought. The splitting of the empire begann after death of Ogedai and failed succession. He was secceeded by Guyuk but Ogedai namd other successor, his favorite grandson. And between succession of Guyuk and death of Ogedai lasted 5 years if I'm not mistaken.
@@Singgen It is only my opinion. It is true Guyg and Khubilai began splitting. But background splitting began before Chingis khaan die. Lot of people didn't know Zuch wasn't Chingis's son. Zuch began splitting. I found some news about Zuch's country.
He had no choice. Jochi the first born was intelligent but was hated by his second brother, was constantly attacked for being allegedly illigitimate and was unpopular to lead the empire. Chagatai was brash, drunkard and Genghis knew if he gave all his power to Jochi then Chagatai was going to start a civil war. Tolui was the most similar to Genghis, was the most amicable to his kin but he didn't have the traits needed to govern a transitioning empire in terms of administration not wonton destruction. So the third brother Ogedei was to be supported by his brothers. But Jochi would never get over being passed over because of the constant questioning of his lineage and Chagatai was angry that because of his feud with Jochi that he was not considered the firstborn. So all in all, it seemed destined for the empire to split.
@@qus.9617 The talk about Jochi is not official. Only his two younger brothers probably discriminated against him from time to time. I think Chingis khaan and Tului weren't dicrimated Zuch. Zuch began splitting. If Zuch didn't split his country Tsagaadai would not angry. I think Ogedei didn't hostility with Zuchi, buh he supports Tsagaadai. Zuch's son Bat is intelligent, because he reunited to main country. But Guyg ended peace.
will you continue to your nomadic civilizations serie? a documentary about the seljuks could be good
