The world building, writing, and history of different types of nomadic groups. The culture, power, war, technology, and religion of these peoples, so it's useful to know a bit about them before writing them into anything.

Here's part 2- covering the Mongols and other tribes
Are you a catholic or jewish terrorist...........because you sound like one
It's funny that you mention the fact that reindeer are ridable.. Snow Elves in my D&D world are nomads based off of pre-Christian Finland/Estonia who ride Dire Reindeer.
that sounds like a pretty cool idea. I may have to steal it........
@@Stoneworks Go right on ahead! Finnish mythology is very interesting to learn about. The Kalevala, basically Finland's version of the Norse Edda, is a good place to start if you know nothing. There are a lot of good stories and it's a shame it's underrepresented when compared to Japanese and Norse mythology.
@@luciachayes do you have more sources/books that I can read about finnish mythology? I am having a very hard time finding anything in English
@@irgendwer3610 I'm afraid most of the stuff out there is in Finnish, and sometimes Swedish. The Kanteletar, also compiled by Elias Lönnrot, has English versions on Amazon (UK, US, unsure about other countries). It's very unfortunate because you can find full poems, songs, etc. online for free but only if you can understand Finnish. Hope this helps somewhat even if it is a little disappointing.
that's a beautiful idea, I love it

We were totally laughing our asses off at this! You've nailed the blend of education and humour and we love it! Thanks for another amazing and informative video!
This reminded me of my Post-Post Apocalypse world building and short stories, where I had a culture in the former Great Plains (now a giant desert) which used repurposed cargo ships-now land ships from the coast to navigate the harsh terrain.
Alex Altair that sounds awesome! Can you please go into more detail? Like what is the world like?
Where can we read this?
TheLuftwaffle 1942 Hey, sorry that I haven’t gotten back to you on this, but I hope this comment will answer your questions.
It’s nearly a thousand years after society collapsed in the 2080s. Decades of overexploitation, with the full and rapid realization of the melting ice caps, forced world governments to more drastic measures to extend the whims of consumerism. Across the continents, over farming caused the great agricultural regions of the world to become barren, creating a second and final dust bowl throughout the globe. All nation states of our time collapsed into hundreds, even thousands, of city states, factions, etc. Over time, the masses began to see both ancient technology and technology of their time as magic or divine, with engineers and mechanics being seen as religious leaders and shamans, with no way of teaching such trades outside of direct lessons of reverence. Technology in 3,000 AD is stagnant in many cultures, in an odd mix of medieval and industrial methods, where manufactories are really only found in select cultures. In the Great Desert, the Sand-Soarer nomads make their living off of that issue, often trading salvaged tech, food, scrap, etc. to those willing to buy. They travel the wastes of their home in massive repurposed cargo ships, of which act like motherships for their entourage fleets. These nomadic land fleets are oftentimes huge, and they can be seen from miles away, mostly due to the massive amounts of red and yellow dust they kick up into behind themThey have a very strong warrior culture, and wars are often decided by a brutal duel between mighty champions, of whom wield glaive-like weapons with a Saber-like blade. However, when at war with other cultures, they do not give them the honor of the duel, instead opting to lay siege to their enemies with cannon, gun, and mortar from the decks of their ships. They do not always seek out war, however, and will often seek out peaceful relations as a primary option. Their fleets often house thousands of individuals, in which both men and women are exceptionally equal in standing. Most individuals have tattoos, especially on their faces, which depict the land and sky, with the individual’s birth stars tattooed like freckles. They wear many articles of fine clothing made of silks and linen, and jewelry, of which they prize those of gold and sapphire This coincides with their religion, which is based around a Mother Sky and Father Earth. Most Sand-Soarer activities are carried out to give praise to the Sky Mother and Earth Father, such as constantly maintaining their sacred gifts, those being the motherships, constantly praying to them for guidance, to even making offerings of blood and sacrifice, both self and material. For sacrifices and food, the nomads have hydroponic setups throughout the ships of their fleets (the water necessary coming from massive moisture collecters on the decks as well as pit stops at the Missouri River and Mississippi Bay at least once every 6 months to a year) , and may house thousands of goats, sheep, chickens, and pigs throughout those same fleets. Tradition holds that all animals butchered for consumption must be bled out on the Sky and Earth Altar, after which having that blood offering blessed by the shamaneer.
I could go on and on, but I fear that I’ll overwhelm any reader with everything that I have written down.
Pretty decent. Would like to hear you discuss the interplay between sedentary and nomadic in your next one. HG Wells makes the claim in his history book that nomadic cultures actually advance civilization over the long term by undermining decadent states and disseminating knowledge. Despite all the carnage this actually seems likely.
Carnage = OPPORTUNITY BABY
Ibn Khaldun had a very similar view
Thanks for covering this! I find the lives of the nomads very fascinating. 😊👍
Stoneworks: Gneurshk
Me: *passes rock from over here*
The *R O M A N I*
The content is great but the editing is hilarious😂😂😂
great work! sorry to be picky but, when you said yak you showed a highland cow. But than again when a googled pictures of yaks, many cows showed up that to me, looked like highland cattle. So it may be me who is in the wrong...
That's awesome. I need that for one of my writing projects.
There is a non-human people who lives off the fruit of a special plant and once they have eaten all the fruit in the area they need to go somewhere else until the plants make new fruit.
Please don't apologize for "long" videos. This is not even 10 minutes!
The people who watch this are here because they want to learn stuff. For us, it can barely be long enough.
Your videos just keep getting better and better. Keep it up!
Not every day I see a channel with less than 50k subs showing this much confidence in its humor and quality presentation. Well done! Definitely subbing and not just for the world building part
1:44 THAT'S A HUMAN PERSON!
Great work! I enjoy all your worldbuilding videos. It helps me plan concepts for my stories❤
I saw that morrowind screenshot
Great job! Very informative, well taught. Thanks (from a former History teacher)
The Chronicles of Ancient Darkness books are a good example of writing/worldbuilding nomadic societies because... well, they're set in the Mesolithic. Everyone is a hunter-gatherer, and almost everyone is nomadic (island-based clans like the Seal Clan are sedentary because there aren't that many potential campsites on islands of that size)
I saw this in my recommended and was immediately excited! I don't know why but nomadic pastoral groups are extremely fascinating to me.
This is so great :D Also Light Up The Forge! I love WorldAnvil.
Stoneworks World Building; Boy... You need to use chap stick or something. XD
Video long enough to cover my walk to time square thank you.
WE LOVE YOU BEN!!!
BEST. AD. EVER.
0:34 the more things change, the more they stay the same...
Hey thanks so much for these videos! Is there any way you can do one on world building within a show like X-Files or a show that is more episodic and features different characters?
This into seriously freaked me out 😂 this is the first of his videos I've ever watched
Where it started cheers to you stony 🥂
Wow the end of the intro was prophetic
Love this, will consider when writing nomads
That being said, where did you find a lot of this stuff out? It's riveting
One of the empires on My world have moving / living houses and stroctures they walk around the empire and have 2 tipes of setlement
The moveble setlement
And the fixed agricolture setlements that Stay on the place because of the plantations but if Need they can walk their houses away
jared from 3rd period algebra was a scary fucker and he definitely deserved his nickname
Thanks for the video
Don't feel bad about using gypsy. The ones who live in my area don't seem to know it's supposed to be a slur. And always call themselves that.
This means I'll probably get into trouble if I meet some sensitive people, since I call the what they call themselces.
Did you seriously quote the phineas and ferb movie tho
I'd feel bad for knowing that, but you used a picture. Plausible deniability
#SpicyBoiNamedGhengis
Do you plan on mentioning/ referencing fictional nomads in the next video?
I wonder what your take is on GRRM's Dothraki or Jhogos Nhai.
Yeeeeaaaa boiiiiiiii
3999 likes, I had the honor of turning this into 4000.
Boy, that opening aged poorly.
You gonna cry? Piss your pants maybe
Ramón Cárdenas what? Lol what a strange response
Good stuff. Can’t wait until part 2
That intro, oddly appropriate LOL
Do you think you could do a world building on a Western world? Lawmen and Outlaws and what not. I think that would be super cool
I like to think about how Nomads deal with orcish and Goblin armies
I want you to know that the cold open alone got you a subscribe
Funnily enough I was gonna have a nomadic tribe forced down when a country taking over their continent BUT was gonna rework it so that they still carry some of their nomadic ways in certain ways. I need to dive into their stuff.
That intro didn't age well 😳😅
5:44 - Hajrá magyarok!!!
Ezt kerestem. "Várjunk csak, azok épp vérszerződést kötnek... és heten vannak? Hmmm"
Why the re-up tho?
There was an audio issue about 8 minutes into the last video
Doctor Freud ^
@@LlamaKing9000 when was it uploaded?
parshnipz57 it was just the same day, the original was up for like half an hour and got ~1.5k views before I replaced it
Clan = group of families. If each family has a father and a son of age, that’s upwards of 50-100 warriors
Tribe = group of clans
2:24: *golf clap*
Well handled
Awesome video! And a Morrowind video would be fantastic.
Before I knew that people on earth rode reindeer, one race in my worldbuilding project traditionally ride on reindeer like animals. There are even some nomadic societies on their planet.
With this relative gender equality among the nomads there have been some notable exceptions - proto-indo-europeans and semites, who were extremely patriarchal
I like this video but I'm a little annoyed that the actual information starts around the 3-minute mark. Today's media means content creators should get out as much info out as possible in as little time as possible.
I’m leaving a comment because I want the next video
Amazing editing
*"it'll be a little bit shorter"*
*Makes it two seconds longer*
Mongols were very smart. One khan invaded china and came across a fortress known to have never been taken in battle. Although the mongol khan outnumbered the chinese garrison, they had no ladders or siege towers to scale the walls. So the Khan made a deal with the chinese garrison commander. "GIVE ME ONE THOUSAND CATS AND I WILL LEAVE THE VACINITY." Thinking this deal was good the commander got one thousand cats in cages and gave them to the mongols. The khan ordered the cats be soaked in oil and set on fire. And you know what cats do when they're in danger? They run back home. The fortress, mostly made of wood was set on fire by the cats and many opening in the wall was made. Although this was cruel and evil, but it did the job.

Don't forget Tamurlame
Never forget Tamurlame........
I might not be an American but I didn't know there was an alternative word to refer to gypsies since "gypsy" was supposed to be a racial slur.
Gypsy is not a racial slur
I've seen people here in the UK get ripped on by teachers for saying it at school, so it kind of is.
We usually just refer to them as Travellers if they aren't Romanis, and Romanis if they are (obviously)
@@thnkng most people still say gypsy with no pejorative intent though
@@jayasuryangoral-maanyan3901 exactly
Since when saying Gypsie is illegal or banned ?
I'm gonna guess you're also an American
I'm from France and here everybody say gypsie , or " gitan " in french
It's not illegal or banned, it's just shitty.
@@Stoneworks So you respond by turning the word 'American' into a slur of its own?
Roma or Romani is preferred but OP is incorrect. A slur is defined by context and I have heard the word gypsie used in a non disparaging context in the states more than as a slur. In fact most antiRoma sentiment lies in Europe since racism is a result of history and the Roma have more history there.
Love the videos keep it up
Well the radio guy dying of a cough surely is funny now!
Tinker's a slur in certain circles too.
Honestly I didn't know the Gypsies were an actual ethnicity until I heard that they were also called Romani so I would call the term "Gypsie" the opposite of informative.
Haven't watched this yet but I hope there's an unless you're the Mongols reference. Also I'm first comment, like and according to my phone view.
Edit : Just realized it's a reupload I feel silly now. Also I saw the Mongol clip and Emperor Tiger Stars map. This was great.
first
@@Stoneworks LMAO
I’m mad now. I hate cliffhangers
2:31 an example of not being able to talk for fear of loss of earnings
Bro I love your videos 😂never change
Hey my friend, could you write to me the name of the last animal of the list of animals raised by nomads? I'm not a English speaker and couldn't understand what you said and I don't know that animal. I would like to search more about it but I can't understand the word. Thanks!
Louis Eugênio I said “and then some” but used a photoshopped picture of a turkeys head on a goat? I think. Sorry, I wish it were real cause it looks kinda cool.
@@Stoneworks HAHAHAHA IT LOOKS AWESOME! Sad that isn't real. You wasted some minutes of my life because I was on Google searching for "animals raised by nomads" and not founding what you said. But I forgive you. I'm anxiously waiting the videos about the Mongols! Hahaha
Nomads are much more interesting than most sedentary civilizations.
I haven't watched this video yet and if he doesn't mention the Dothraki, I'll punch myself in the face.
"Oh god is that tear gas!"
...
Well it is now
G P R. Love it.
მადლობა
i have a problem, tho, the religion of mongols and turks, isnt a "nomad steppe religion" i think it has been influenced by a chinese religion as xiongnu and started to become its own thing after the abolition of xiongnu, and also no, they arnet likely to turn to muslims and buddhists, that happened in our world because they intreacted with muslims and buddhisms
*HUNNIC THROAT SINGING INTENSIFIES*
FINALLY, THE FACE REVEAL!!! WE NOW KNOW THAT OUR WORLD BUILDING KING IS NOT JUST OUR KING,,, HE IS ALSO OUR DADDY 😍😍😍😍
The Goodest Boy is this legal?
@@Stoneworks perhaps not! but what more would you expect from the alphahomo
The Goodest Boy these are some very convincing points..
@@Stoneworks oh also, great fucking video thank you so much
@@Stoneworks You do remind me of a sexy nerd. Just saying.
Reupload?
yessir
2:25 I live in the us and yes I know all about them
Edit yay 169th comment
Trinston was here
this time the mongols aren't the exception
Mentions Yaks.
Immediately shows a acottish highland cow
1:38 nice flag of libya
Just ran headfirst into the problems of doing this.
ok
Fuck yeah reindeer herders are badass!
Gypsy is fine but calling travels and gypsys tinkers is a bit iffy lol or maybe that’s just Ireland
The mongols built the largest empire on Earth because they were no mads.
says "yak"
shows picture of scottish highland cow
Says "Yaks"
Shows "Highland Cow"
Yo, wtf is the thing at 4:33? It looks like some sort of Chernobyl turkey goat dog.
yep, that's exactly it
yeah, india...
Psst that looks more like a Scottish highland cow than a yak.
That fucking intro, bro.
Damn where are the turkic man
To be fair all empires fall apart
I love your zoomer humor 🤭
I call them travelers
Hunter gatherers are not nomads. They are no herders of animals like horses, cattle..
