Hello everyone, if you wanted to see the later history of this region, most of it is included in this video: ruclips.net/video/yJhqNa2L_A8/видео.html Also, this will probably be the last regional video I make about Asia, unless I do Japan, because there aren't any regions left. I will continue with the History of the World series with Vologda Mapping, but as for regular mapping videos, it would be nice to hear what you'd want to see in future. Let me know if you have any ideas :)
-First Indochina War. -History of South America, with smooth independence wars and an acurated depiction of every war. For example, most videomapping videos show all Chile and Peru independent in 1822, while in this time most of Peru and a huge island as big as Wales were under Spanish rule. Also, most civil wars are not shown. -Indonesian War of Independence -Sengoku period in Japan with all damyos and nice battles -History of Research Stations in Antartica -History of Caribean Islands, also showing Venezuela's and Centroamerican coasts -Colonization of Amazonia -Colonization of Australia -Colonization of east and middle USA -Spread of Budhism -History of currencies -History of Siberia
The history of Central doesn't end with Mongol Empire. It extends to Russian empire till the day they gain independence in 1991. I was expecting to see the full history till 1991.
Very interesting. I'm Kazakh and in my family there are people from 4 tribes which had 4 kingdoms showed here on the map - Wusun kingdom, Kanguj kingdom, Yezhi kingdom and Naiman kingdom. All these tribes live today in one nation and even in one family. I'm actually Yezhi myself or as Turkic people call us - Kipchak tribe.
Kamilah Bahyt Yuezhi is a Chinese state of warring state periods which move to the Central Asia in 3BC. Because of the thread of Xiongnu........the emperor even want to cooperate with them and help them fight the Xiongnu.....
??? Sorry, we (Yuezhi) are not chinese. Our turkic name of the tribe is Kipchak or Kip-Sak (the blessed Saka).Yuezhi is actually a chinese name of our tribe, many nations gave us different names: russians called us Polovtsy, greek people gave us name Scythians, persian name of our tribe is Saka, indian name is Shaka or Shakya, european people called our tribe - Celts.
GoguryeoTiger We are not half iranian, maybe iranians have a little bit of our blood after my ancestors conquered their land and took the most beautiful women as slaves, the same thing happened in Egypt, nothern India, on the territories of China, Russia.
4:04 After the defeat of the Uighur Kaganate, the Kyrgyz Kaganate should have been. Its territories were lands from Balkhash lake to Liaodun Bay and from Angara river to Lobnor lake.
4:05 is not correct, after the fall of the Uyghur Kaganate, power passed to the Kyrgyz Kaganate, there is specific written, archaeological evidence about this. The author does not have an objective opinion, he is politicized
Can everyone stop hating and complaining about the Turks, Mongols and how long the Intro was and just appreciate the video. If you don't have nothing good to comment then don't comment!!
The first state in Central Asia was formed in 500 BC. By 300 BC, three states had emerged.they were the states of Dovan, Bactria, and Kashan. The state of Dovan was twice attacked by China, but never became dependent on China.
After that, after the Arab invasion. The Khorezmshahs ruled Central Asia. It was conquered by the Mongols from the 13th to the 14th century. In the 14th century, Amir Temur the Great conquered all of Central Asia, East Turkestan, He conquered northern India and present-day Turkey. After that, Central Asia was not dependent on anyone until the Russian invasion
Amir Temur's grandson, Zahiriddin Muhammad Babur, ruled India from the 16th century until the British invasion. One of the 7 wonders of the world. It was built by Turkic peoples, more precisely by Uzbeks
Great stuff, but I have one suggestion. At the start of the video, it would be helpful to start with a larger world view, and then zoom into the area you are digging into. That way, it is a bit easier to get one's bearings.
It would have been cool with China defeated the Caliphate at Talas, it would be different if Central Asia was Sinicized and became Buddhist. Would be an interesting area!
Very interesting and worthwhile video. One thing is obvious: Empires and the like come and go, most are soon gone, and they all eventually come to an end.
No turks dare to claim it's turkish but we know it was not fully mongol. Google how mongol empire was established. "This federation not only consisted of Mongols in the proper sense-that is, Mongol-speaking tribes-but also included tribes of Turkish descent." -Britannica
But they are claiming. They say chingis khan's mother was turkish. He heared stories about arabic invasion against turks from mother and then he wanted to take revenge of this invasion. They united the turks and marched to arabs. His army was full with the turks because this revenge thing.
Arda you realize Turkic is a term designed to allocate a language right? Even panturkism was invented to convince all who speak Turkic language to form a unified nation, even though they have very different ethnic and cultural traits. As a result of the nationalism movement in late 19th century, panturkism was widely pushed around, yet it still DOESNT MEAN THAT SOME EMPIRE THAT ONCE RULED ASIA WAS ‘TURKIC’ you fucktard
Dudu channel -the Central Asian countries Currently are: Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Turkmenistan. Other countries in the map include: Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, Nepal, Bhutan, China, Mongolia, and Russia.
Most of the political, military, and cultural developments you see here were either directly or indirectly the consequences of one decision by one man in the early 4th century B.C. One of the multiple petty kings in the Warring States period. That man was King Wuling of Zhao and his decision was to experiment with adding cavalry to Zhao's army vaguely modeled after nomadic steppe tradition. He couldn't have anticipated just how effective these cavalry would become, much less the competition that would follow as other Chinese kingdoms scrambled to develop their own cavalry. Because of one king's decision, much of China scrambled to seize pasture land to breed, train, and sustain the horse populations needed to have a strong cavalry. Because the needed pasture land was in steppe nomad territory, and because these new cavalry allowed Chinese to venture deeper and deeper into those lands, relatively disorganized, poor, and peaceful nomads were forced to revolutionize many aspects of their way of life to survive wave after wave of Chinese conquest. Nomad society soon was thrown into perpetual crises plagued by constant attacks and shortages. Before that one decision, nomads couldn't compete period with China much less the rest of the world. They lived a subsistence-level lifestyle with the majority of people being a producer of bare necessities. After that decision, around the 3rd century onward, constant invasions and looting of their land forced them to adopt a society that revolves around a military class of nomadic raiders and warlords and an economy based on tribute or outright pillaging. If you were an adult man from that point forward, you were either a soldier or your job was related to militarism in some way. Warlord territories turned to nomadic empires, becoming more and more centralized, organized, and violent. This effect began to snowball, eventually creating the Xiongnu empire. Less than a few generations before, China could easily dismiss nomads, at best making temporary alliances with them to use as fodder in their personal feudal scuffles. Now, China had a massive enemy stretching from Manchuria to the Gansu within a hundred miles one of their most prosperous cities Chang'an. The Han were forced to acknowledge nomads as a possible existential threat. China was easily forced to the negotiating table with people they saw as barbarians and for many years China would submit to the Xiongnu in a desperate bid to avoid their destruction before they could come up with a way to keep them under control. They were willing to give these nomads large amounts of tribute regularly just to appease them enough to avoid destroying China entirely. There were still brief raids along the border that the Chinese were helpless to stop. Attack after attack became a continuing reminder of an enemy that was now accustomed to the lifestyle of a raider. The Han would build their strength over the years and strike back at the Xiongnu, attempting to cut them off from other targets they depended on killing and looting. Nonetheless, in the coming centuries, they were never able to pacify them completely. For centuries warrior nomads ruled Central Asia. Their activities played a massive role in both Western and Eastern history. The Hephtalites alone had a massive effect on the policy of the Sassanids. Barbarian invaders at the Caucasian gates would force the Sassanids and Byzantines, two powerful, bitter enemies to accept a truce. Nomad invasions would cause hysteria in Sassanid Persia that would create a heretical sect of Zoroastrianism that would persist for centuries, even after the Islamization of the plateau. In Europe these invasions greatly began to influence military strategy and economic activity. The total effects during this time are too many to count, but due to that one decision in Zhao all those years ago, one giant effect in the form of a lower-class boy would be born. That boy's name was Temujin, as a child he was shy and afraid of dogs. As a man he is better known by the name Genghis Khan, hardened by a warlike steppe lifestyle. That man would create a gigantic empire, a meritocratic society, and a set of laws that would dominate all of the Central Asia and some areas beyond for centuries. The Mongol Empire would single-handedly end the Islamic Golden Age, force Eastern Europeans to overhaul much of their infrastructure and military, and indirectly force explorers to look for alternative routes to India, spawning the rise of European colonialism. The rest, as you likely know, is history. All because one king decided to give horses in his army a try.
I agree with everything exept one thing.At the time of the Mongol empire the silk road was open and safe for trade so Europeans didn t had to look for alternatives.It was after the Ottomans that the Europeans tried to find alternative ways to get to India and the spice islands,thus opening the way to colonialism.
Hey Ollie Bye ! Is it possible if you can do a video about the History of the whole Eurasian Steppes (which would include, Eastern Europe, Anatolia, the Caucasus, Persia, Central Asia, the Xinjiang Region, Tibet and Mongolia). I think it would be awesome if you cover the whole region because of the impact that the region has had on Human History due to all the various migration that went from Asia to Europe and the Middle East. =D
It's amazing how all these little empires squabbled with each other for centuries, and then the Mongols came along and gobbled them all up in short order.
@Hernando Malinche We havent save them, but the turks fought many times with the Koreans against for examble China. Koreans and Turkic people are Brothers and you cant change it.
@Hernando Malinche Watch the Video from the Korean Jay kim which is named ,,do Koreans really think Turkey is a brother country? " He is a korean and says that Turkey is their brothercountry (And he also says why). You cant change it!
@@YS-tn9ur Islam is a religion and Uyghur Turks are a ethnicity. It is like saying Europeans were pagans none of them were Christians . Everyone in this world worshipped some other religion before. Humanity didn't start with religion. You get that?Chinese are atheists now. Not many Buddhist apply your logic on them now
Dear Ollie you are incredible! I've been watching your creations in the last couple of years and I am astonished! May I ask that you prepare something that nobody has yet attempted? I would like to see a History of the Japanese Islands, especially the period between c. 1000 and 1603, when the Tokugawa Shogunate was officially established. I would like to see the history of the various clans and the Shogunates, as well as the period of Shengoku Jidai in the 16th century and the wars of Oda Nobunaga, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and Tokugawa Ieyasu. Thanks for your great work! Keep going mate!
Yes I noticed that too when I first watched the video I think Ollie believes it is too controversial to show the ambiguous borders of the saka tribes, but at least he approximates the location of the scythians in his history of asia video, although it should be placed further northeast, and a distinction should be made to contrast the scythians as nomadic iranic peoples and the later huns as nomadic turkic peoples.
This is great. I like hearing about this part of the world because I rarely ever do. You have to go out of your way to learn about the history compared to Europe, East Asia, and the Americas.
This is Brilliant and very helpful to understand the historical movings. Would more than appreciate, if you could identify a few important cities in each continent?, for example, Panjab, Khotan always shown?
fuck you, we were huns, after than turks, and so on, you made great china wall for us, we were like a nightmare for you, you forgot it, read your history man carefully, central asia was is and will turks territory, we are nomad people
Ollie, more great stuff as usual. One thing that I've wanted to see was an interactive map/timeline, as it progresses and yours does, but with historical highlights that the user can touch and expand on. Is this something that you could see yourself doing as software experience, rather than RUclips? Looking forward to more magic.
Kirman Selçuklularının Haritasını Arayan Dost Manchu is an ehnic of China, and only in China. The founder of Qing was an official of Ming. They are not Han Chinese, but they are still Chinese. So you want to say no one is American in America except the Anglo-Saxon?

Most of the political, military, and cultural developments you see here were either directly or indirectly the consequences of one decision by one man in the early 4th century B.C.

I would like to see the history of the various clans and the Shogunates, as well as the period of Shengoku Jidai in the 16th century and the wars of Oda Nobunaga, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and Tokugawa Ieyasu.
Thanks for your great work! Keep going mate!
i loked away for five seconds and my entire screen turned purple
Saka
Parthia
Kushan
Scythia
Bactria
Sogdia
Massgetia
Were Iranian
Center Asia "Andorowo " was Iranian mother land not turks
Fck off brainless... İf you says really, Firdowsi a liar.. and Shehnameh is fake .
Ok
All of this anmy of persian and part of turcik state ideot
True even us Hepthalites
But not iranian Tajik
you forgot the Scythians, did you not? some of them settled next to Bactria
Yes I noticed that too when I first watched the video I think Ollie believes it is too controversial to show the ambiguous borders of the saka tribes, but at least he approximates the location of the scythians in his history of asia video, although it should be placed further northeast, and a distinction should be made to contrast the scythians as nomadic iranic peoples and the later huns as nomadic turkic peoples.
5:28 hardest map ever
Easiest
It's kinda frightening seeing the entire map go purple at the end there
This is great. I like hearing about this part of the world because I rarely ever do. You have to go out of your way to learn about the history compared to Europe, East Asia, and the Americas.
i love your music choice .
you are tearing me apaaaart chinaaa... oh hi gengis
Subutay Han You’re my favorite empire
This is Brilliant and very helpful to understand the historical movings. Would more than appreciate, if you could identify a few important cities in each continent?, for example, Panjab, Khotan always shown?
Central Asia has always been a cosmopolitan area.
0:27-3:11 what is name music?
1:02
*dingling*
Perfect depiction of RUclips before T-Series
Can you make something like WWII by every week? Would look interesting, no doubt
+Ollie Bye How can I use the program of the "Every year"?
5:29
*and then they died in a tornado*

"to the height of the Mongol Empire"
What height may that be, you ask?
5:27
5:17 oh boy...
Shule Kucha Karashr Khotan and Shanshan be like : we're your vassals now, no wait we're your vassals now, no wait we're your vassals now
Yuezhi is Tocharians right?
Mr. Potato man Yes
Nope , their origin were Altaic.
Yuezhi should not be from Tocharian. The purebred Tocharians have red hair and green eyes.
Takhari people are Tajik not any mongol
0:52 Guishang = Kushan (add some continuity here)
Mongolia just took all of that stuff in the end, WOOOOW!!! BIG SHOCKER!!!!
Any way, nice vid Ollie Bye!
Mongols : "The party's over."
Tang Lost To Islamic Caliphate in 721
Tang empire is great
Japan and Korean peninsula would be really interesting
Han Chinese controled central Asia way eariler than Turks.
turks？omg for old china civilization, Turks were like kids.
Xiao FANG haha you funny
fuck you, we were huns, after than turks, and so on, you made great china wall for us, we were like a nightmare for you, you forgot it, read your history man carefully, central asia was is and will turks territory, we are nomad people
Still wonder if Central Asia originally belonged to either East Asians, Europeans, Or Middle Easterners prior to misconcegination
It never belonging to Middle East
Who also is in vacation? 😃
Interesting VIDEO
the intro is 24 seconds. way too long tbh
1:00 the kindom of dingling?
Where is the Kyrgyz Khanate?
It should be after Uyghurs in 840
Maybe up in the Yenesi off the map?
@@yidiandianpang Yeah I guess so, Yenesi was the land of Kyrgyzs actually, they names it Enasoy which means "Mother river".
Wow, great job
I am Naiman, we are still live!!!
we are naimans, our history is so rich, but our government don't say that special
Adai

Orta Asya: Ortam çok sakin,nerde bir aksiyon
Mete Han: MERHABALAR AQ
Center Asia is 2th middle east
Before the barbarians, there were so many Iranian and Tocharian civilizations
😹😹😹
Lol Iranian troll
Ollie, more great stuff as usual. One thing that I've wanted to see was an interactive map/timeline, as it progresses and yours does, but with historical highlights that the user can touch and expand on. Is this something that you could see yourself doing as software experience, rather than RUclips? Looking forward to more magic.
5:26 very satisfying
Xiongnu is ancestors of Turks.
Good work. Please make a slide show about Russian conquest of central Asia.
Qarakhoja in 1111 looks like Manchuria imo
Yuzhei-Xionite Hunas-Magna Hungaria-Hungary.The Huns were not Hungarians.
Tang empire is great
Long live a chinese empire!!!!! ( han,jin,sui,tang,song,ming and qing dynasties )
Kirman Selçuklularının Haritasını Arayan Dost Manchu is an ehnic of China, and only in China. The founder of Qing was an official of Ming. They are not Han Chinese, but they are still Chinese. So you want to say no one is American in America except the Anglo-Saxon?
Did the geographic program you were using get corrupted again or have you decided not to use the program anymore?
