Stranded From the Ottoman Slave Trade

- What happened to all those countless men and women who were stranded from the Ottoman and Arab slave trades? Today we will be discussing one of the world's most discrete slave trades, which saw the transportation of tens of millions of European Christians and African polytheists transplanted from their homeland into the Middle East, and the consequences on the genetics, culture and politics of the region.
Be sure to let me know your thoughts on the modern communities that formed through the descendants of these former slaves. Thanks for watching!

Everyone's ancestors enslaved and murdered their enemies. Its called history. Go back far enough and you will find out how brutal all of our ancestors were. And none of you had anything to do with those decisions.
Best and most relevant response on this video.
+Brian Garrow Most slaves were not prisoners of war!!
@@petcharles1971 my ancestors used to sell their children's to the ottoman and sometime they were raids for slave but honestly we don't care that much... We even have more reasons to be proud to be honest
It depends when and where you are talking about. Likely the majority of slaves over history were captives taken during raids, which are decidedly one-sided acts of war. After that the next biggest group were captured in actual war or tribal conflicts. This is how it was done mostly everywhere: when your side lost your people were either killed, enslaved, or driven away from their land. The whole "prisoner of war" thing is an artifact of more modern caste or nobility systems where ransoms and prisoner exchanges became a thing. Even then most common troop were either killed, enslaved, or simply pressed into service by the opposing army; only those of noble birth and officers were ransomed or imprisoned, seeing as the upkeep for that is rather expensive for little return. After captured persons, slaves bred in captivity are probably the next largest group, only because few societies allowed the raising of families by slaves, only those that allowed inter-generational slavery, and functional infanticide was commonly practiced in many times and places ie. if they didn't outright kill the slave infants directly, conditions were such that most of the children didn't survive weaning. After that in no particular order are those sold by their families into slavery, other debt-slaves and criminals.
But we still live with the legacy that certain brutalities of the past that have shaped how we are all socialized
What about the White men and women taken from north west Europe, taken by the Barbary Pirates and sold in to slavery in the Ottoman Empire during the 14th to 18th century's
@Chad Alphabeta raid of iceland was done by barbary pirates from the pirate mini state of sale (today part of the moroccan capital rabat-sale) they weren't turks or ottomans, althou the icelandic ppl where sold to turks soooo. wanted to shift the blame from the turks and only made it worse
and the black people too! And the sad thing is...its it is still happening in libya
Probably too insignificant
@@giraffelord750 no it isnt
@Liam Connington The number of people captured were 107 (highest estimate is 237), they were mostly English settlers (funny that) and The attack was led by a Dutch captain, Jan Janszoon van Haarlem. Also part of the crew were dutch. Cork history booooooy.
“Greeks settled in Anatolia”. This wrong on so many levels. Greeks were the inhabitants of Anatolia for thousands of years before the Turks even got there.
Greeks colonised anatolia. And most greeks were in the coastal regions like the aegian and black sea cost regions. Before them there were hittites and other persian people
A lot of what he is saying is totally rubbish. They didn't have sex slavery and castrate sleves? Nonsense castrated slaves were easy to control and easy to use as watcher. Useful for rebellion and attacks.
@o O this term is made by white people themselfs. Stop blaiming your colonised ex slaves for still using this term.
@@edizy6547 There were no native Persian groups in Anatolia. The Anatolian groups preceding the groups were heavily hellenised well before the arrival of the Turks. They were at least as 'Greek' as the current Turks of Anatolia are 'Turks' - in fact likely far more so.
@Ediz Y Hittites weren't a Persian people, you ignorant prick. Persians hadn't existed yet in those centuries; their linguistic ancestors were still living in eastern Ukraine and southern Russia back then. The Hittites, Luwians, Lydians, Lycians, Troyans spoke languages that belong to the Anatolian subfamily of Indo-European whereas Persian language belongs to the Indo-Iranian subfamily.
Mauritania still has slaves in the underground slave trade market. Even though is was abolished in 1987.
America also still have slaves
@Joshua Regan America has replaced old slavery by modern slavery
India has 13 million slaves
@@xsiri3022 "modern slavery" isn't slavery. You're just using the word "slavery" to get a reaction out of people. Stop trying to make the white man look bad and just admit that arabs are more racist towards black than anyone.
@@paccawacca4069 LMAO Arabs are more racist to black people? Don't be an idiot the most modern day racists are Americans and some Europeans
"Greeks settled in Anatolia".... Ehh, they were there waaayyyy before the Ottomans, dude.
yes. and they weren't natives too.
I would hardly call “Greeks settled in Anatolia way baaaaack” as their presence only remained mostly in islands and the shores of Anatolia facing Greece.
@@daoudkamal7768 western Anatolia was Greek atleast
@Joseph Lisitza ur delusional Greek civilization has been influencing the middle east anatolia and the entire Mediterranean since the bronze age and until the fall of byzantines it was ended because of the Arabs after over 2000 years existence u can't really say there influence was minimal and short lived
Yes but Greeks were never native to Anatolia.
Balkans had a hard time being enslaved by ottomans, Ottomans for a brief time attacked remote Eastern Slav villages in Russia and Poland and captured women and children. Soon Cossacks formed and put an end to that.
Over 3 million people are estimated to have been enslaved by the Tatars and later sold on the Ottoman slave markets. From the territories of Ukraine and Russia. Plus, Circassia. Thrice more are estimated to have been killed for every slave captured. Even Moscow was almost sacked, but the Tatars failed and it got burned down instead. The first sich was formed in the 16th century by the Ruthenian noble from Rzeczpospolita - Dmytro Vyshnevetsky. The Cossacks didn't stop the Tatar raids on the Orthodox population of the Rzeczpospolita. They fought Turks and Tatars, as well as raided them and sacked their cities, freeing people, but they never stopped the slave raids. Those were stopped only after the Russian Empire conquered Crimea.
Being an ottoman slave was the best of all slaves man, you could even become Grand Vezir wich a turk could never become. And if the british would take over the balkans you all be speaking british and not be catholic/orthodx !

First. It's amazing how we forget the Islamic Slave trade
It's what they want you to forget. People are making it seem like only white Europeans did slavery, when in fact almost every race and culture had some prior or still have a form of slavery.
Conservative Critters Not every race/culture but there was many that did.
Probably because it took place on the other side of the world.
@@itwouldbesoawesomeitwouldb6280 dont do a strawman white people have been the one benefiting the most from slavery hence the ones that MOST enslaved others, in fact during the colonial era MOST slaves by numbers were amerindian THATS HOW chocolate got to europe and silver and gold were both given a boost
*arab and ottoman slave trade
Everyone forgets this slave trade, it's politically appropriate to do so.
that's why everyone is talking about it
@Andrew thats alot of bs in fact most of the people enslaved by whites were AMERINDIANS thats how chocolate gold and silver was mined so dont give me that bs
They forgot because the behavior of Muslims against the slaves weren't brutal like the behavior of the Westerners. Muslims saw the slaves as humans, as members of their community.
No its just no one cares about all the other slave trades
They only care about the ones in america
@Andrew no they didnt

I always point out the slave trade "in the rest of the world" when people are amerocentric
@@flightographist some girl just tried to tell me white people invented racism and slavery, i just simply sent her this videos among a few others
Me too, I've seen and talked to way to many leftists who say that only white people are racist and that white people invented slavery. I send them articles on the Barbary slave trade, Arab slave trade, ottoman slave trade and trans Sahara slave trade.
Slave trade was in everywhere because slavery was a system of production and all civilized societies used it.
But there is great difference between this and black American slavery.
In Islam, the slave has rights, and owner has oblogations against the slave. It is a low social status, but still a human status. Actually, in Muslim countries slave supply was always short, slave was expensive, and not much use for heavy labour. The problem was that slaves becoming muslim, amd their children (born as muslim) cannot continue slave status. In one or two generations slave turned to waged labour. This is why supply never met the demand.
There was no racial status that separated slave and the owner. One can become slave against the debt he cannot pay back, or was captured during the war.
Ottomans used white european slaves mostly, caught during their wars against Christians. Or they collected young boys from christian subjects. They were getting education and training in the Porte to become soldiers and civil servants. This kind of slave (Kul) was a Sultan's (public) property. They often had a huge salary and nice retirement options. They were so disintguished that even Muslim families wanted their children too could enter these ranks, and finally the state accepted this demand.
In American black slave case however the slave was not even a human. America used slaves even after they reached industrialization, and developed laws and humanist ideology, modern concepts of freedom and human rights.
How they still could hold and use slaves is due to only one factor. It was racism.
Appearantly even 150 years after abolishment of slavery, the racism is still a problem in US and Western societies.
Is there racism in Islamic countries? Certainly there must be some racism went on somewhere. But it is such rare that historians cannot actually see any important influence of it.
@@emrekoseoglu1680 thanks for ur input csn i get sources please?
@@elijahchuruza I have to give you a huge list for sources which I am not intended to. You should already know most of it. (For example Slavery and racism relationship in America, doesnt need a specific source. Get any school book about American history).
Instead you may mark a certain area (for example "slavery laws in Islam") and I can provide one or two books for it.
They are Arab because Arab has become more of a culture than a bloodline. Most of what we consider today as Arabs most likely have Mesopotamian, Syriac, Phoenician, Egyptian, Berber, Hebrew, and many other origins as far as bloodlines go. So, an African Arab would be no different.
Arab means mixed people
@@gregoryrandall4819 ? my friend please educate yourself.
Arab is identity it's not ethnicity
Buddy nobody says that. He’s just saying people don’t cherish the african side or acknowledge it or it’s people like you that always curves tha african part and never want to acknowledge it. We know Arabs are in all places. Learn to stfu and just watch the video
@@thyrien1088 Or you could learn to scroll past a comment like a dignifed intelligent person without insulting someone you don't know. But maybe you don't have enough problems in your life so you want some drama here.
Maybe that's why some people in Saudi Arabia and the Gulf States refer to themselves being Asil or Aseel, which describes a person of Arabian descent who has a long ancestral chart. Normally Arabs in the Gulf States use it to make a distinction between themselves and other Arabs or Muslims who settled in their countries during the 20th century, or don't belong to one of the old and often noble families. Fe. like the al-Khalifa, al-Maktoum or the House of Saud.
Do about Arab slave trade
@King of Mesopotamia kurds were loyal to ottomans until the end but their relationship with the Turkish republic isn't good
ماجد الغزواني You are brainwashed.
ماجد الغزواني The Turks did many genocides. I won't be surprised if they did the Armenian genocide.
seem2002
and then they have the nerve to bi!ch 1 hundred years later about the Arab revolt.
@King of Mesopotamia The ottomans struggled with the kurds. Everytime they made a revolt the sultan had to take power and ended up with the Hamidiye in order to stop revolts and attacks on the armenians.
Has someone been reading Thomas Sowell?
How did you know that he has been reading Thomas Sowell?
Spongebob Squarepants because Thomas sowell has an essay about the integration of non African slave populations in Muslim countries as compared to their African counterparts. There was a like Mason said that just screamed Sowell, I would have to listen to the whole video again to find it

No they wait til evening time, in the inner-cities, and do it at 40-1 ratios, in drive by shootings. That and the near fortresses inner-city schools have already had to become, with armed police, and metal detectors, and reduced intrences, There are more mass-shootings in ONE major, inner-city, than all the real school shootings, in the entire country, year in, and year out. You've made a point, that is simply ridiculous on so many levels.

I've seen three of your videos, so far. They teach us a little about our origins and it's always tastefully done.
Subscribed. Please keep them coming.
I can't stress how much I love this channel. It's the closest thing I've got to going back in time and studying anthropology (well, just the interesting classes). Also, it's very hard these days to see someone discussing such "not-really-very-PC" topics without derailing onto the dark side.
Fascinating! Here is the usual list of my suggestions:
1. The genetics of Aboriginal Australians (that'd be a really good one!)
2. World Wars before the 20th century (Seven Years War, Napoleanic Wars, etc.). The Napoleanic Wars specifically would be good as I think a lot of people need clarification with that. I'd suggest doing it like the Prussia video.
3. Uratu/Kingdom of Van-Iron Age
4. What if the two hemispheres united as a single country (Your choice of North/South, East/West, with the equator and prime meridian the "border line").
5. Asatru-Modern Norse Religious Revival (mainly in Iceland)
6. Neolithic Cultural Complexes ("Right before Sumeria...")
7. Scythians
8. What's the difference between Syria and Assyria?
9. Jainism
10. The Lesser Known Uralic Peoples in Karelia
11. Garamantes
12. Tonga and other countries never colonized by the Europeans.
As usual, hope that helps!

You're so thorough and informative I enjoy your videos very much
Amazing info and video. Thank you!
A lot of people are claiming that the Arab slave trade is ignored, but I say it's merely a consequence of the West being very Eurocentric. Western media and academia also largely forgot or ignored Middle Eastern, Far Eastern, South Asian and many other peoples' history, so it makes sense their slave trades would be ignored, forgotten or overlooked.
Ottomans are Turks idiot
Suede Component
I'd agree. As much as these frustrated young white males would like to think otherwise, the focus on the transatlantic slave trade is very much a symptom of western intellectual hegemony. As the balance of global power shifts, so might the focus on history. Maybe some day the Arab slave trade will capture as much of our attention as the transatlantic one.
It's not the way of "Eurocentrism" to attribute false legitimacy to inferiror cultures and therefore inevitably havingo to ignore their shortcomings to do so.
Not true, western schools do teach about non-European cultures and history, eg the Native Americans, Incas, Mayans, Chinese & japanese history, but the topic of slavery seems to focus entirely on the trans-atlantic slave trade in the English speaking world whilst ignoring the trans-saharan slave trade. It seems like this is done simply to guilt white people into thinking that their ancestors brought this great evil of slavery onto the world.
Your hypothesis quickly falls apart when you consider that a million Slavs and other southern and eastern Europeans were indeed enslaved by Turks & Moors. If the statement "the West being very Eurocentric" is true in regards to teaching history to children, why is this part of European history omitted?
@@Anon-nv7bp they don't talk about westerners selling slavs to Arabs

Appreciate this video man!!
Please make a video on the Syriac, Assyrians, Chaldeans and Arameans communities living in Iraq, Syria, Turkey and Iran. I'm having a difficult time wrapping my head around the difference between those communities.
Arameans lived in syria and around Syria, in other places in middle east (Aram/Syria, Aram-Damascus, Paddan-Aram, Bethel, Aram-Naharaim, Nineveh, and more).(We all speak aramaic with is older mutch older than arabic and was lingua franca in midle east. Arabic derived in arabia, from an aramaic dialect/- semetic/canonite language. ( Aramaic which was lingua franca of middle east at a period because it’s easy writing system, trade/bussinesmen. Aramean is 3000 years old or possibly older, while arabic is 1400 years old. We call us Arameans from Aram and lived in different places all over middle east/like states. We are middle eastern semetic). Syriac, Assyrian, Chaldean all are brothers from different parts of middle east, and speak aramaic. Assyrians speak assyrian dialect/neo-aramaic. So I would say I’’m syriac-aramean because i speak syriac dialect, comes from north Aram/Turabdin (north Aram) todays south east Turkey. And 1/4 of my family is assyrian. Syriac dialect spoken mostly in ancient north Syria and south Turkey and Assyrian/neo aramaic in north Iraq. And old aramaic in west asia (Lebanon, Israel, Palestisn). And in Jordan/Petra was a syriac vilage/(hiding vilage). And we had to flee because of genocide and more (ex, Sayfo).
A prof is that in Syria There is sill one vilage who speaks aramaic
Ian Miles were not arab
They are all pretty similar with just living in different areas
Justified Crusader our people predate the arabs, even our genes are significantly different from arabs.
I thank you for the wonderful insight. I've been doing my own haphazard research. Your post helps a lot.
As another poster has noted You should do a video about the Arab Slave Trade specifically.
It is greatly needed If I say so myself( humbly.
I'm not against Religion . Each person is entitled to a choice.
The Arabic - Ottoman - Islamic Slave Trade is given a free pass by to many.
The European Slave Trade backed Church and State is well documented.Equilibrium in terms of scholarly, intellectual and historical debate is much needed on such a narrative.

I don't understand why some African Americans act so hard done by as if they were the only people in existence who had ancestors who were slaves.
Tell us about your enslaved ancestors and how it influences your current status in society. I’m willing to guess that trolling is just a by product of you twatish existence through the centuries, never understanding anything.
To nejolo matrilo, you clearly took what I said personally, just look at that comment. I for one will not even jest the idea of participating in an argument with you, but I'll gladly explain why I said what I said.
I come from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, a place where modern slavery is still rife. My mother was a sex slave and I was born into slavery also and put into forced labor at an early age. I was rescued by the save the children foundation and given somewhere safe to stay and was also given a chance to go to school where I got to get a real education and earn my future. My mother was a slave and her mother before that was a slave. My ancestors were slaves and I saw what slavery looked like first hand.
The first chance I could I immigrated to the UK. With the internet I see so much and learn so much of the world I never knew existed. One thing I cannot stand is when I see some of the African American people act as though they'd experienced slavery when they were not even alive to witness it. There is real problems in this world like modern slavery and they protest about what happened before their life times that doesn't happen anymore to their people. They are effectively crying over long spilled milk. Nobody is going to enslave them anymore as they're living in a country where slavery is not allowed by the laws of their lands. It annoys me they are angry with people who never existed in the times they never existed. Times change, but their opinions of white Americans stay the same. The people of Congo have enslaved one another, however I don't feel hatred towards my people. My children will never feel a hatred of my people and they will not be born to see the slavery first hand. I think it's time for people to move on from the past and work towards a better future for everyone involved instead of petty race revenge against people who cannot explain or repent for the crimes of their ancestors.
Blue Bowser You sound like you’ve been enlightened given you are NOT in the Congo. A place you would never go back to. If you were to have been stuck in the Congo with no measure of escape I think you wouldn’t feel so priviledged yo think this way. But you are in a nice place now and would never understand why these African Americans would be so limited.
Why don’t you go back to the Congo and have Jim Crow and racist policies still affect your ability to access success and after centuries pass show us how you fared. But this is obvious facts my snippy friend. Nothing personal here. Again experience and understanding the circumstance. You are obviously pointing out the circumstantial differences between the UK and the Congo and how it affects you behaviour. Don’t take this personally.
Blue Bowser The same way you speak of your ancestry, I speak of mine. The majority of my ancestors were enslaved West/Central Africans..it is simply a fact. The idea of ‘race’ was used as a justification to keep my ancestors enslaved. The idea of ‘race’ kept people of my ancestry from having almost any rights up until the 1960’s when the laws were changed. However, vast discrimination was present up until the 1990’s. You have no idea what my father went through in this country. He was born in 1955. You have no idea what racism feels like..as I do. It affects every aspect of my life, yet I hate no one. Tell me if you could do that?
@Vaughn reed jr

Why would that come up up in a video about the Middle East/Africa slave trade????????????
Important information. Thanks Massaman
Very informative!
I was surprised when my DNA test results showed that my mitochondrial DNA was from West Africa, even though my ancestors as far back as the early 19th century were all born in England. Thank you for highlighting the possible routes by which my West African DNA might have come to North West Europe if it didn’t come from the transatlantic slave trade in the 17 th or 18th centuries.
You know that Sub Saharan Africans were sent to England, right?
Very interesting video. Just a quick question where did you Source the numbers for the amount of slaves in the three slave trades? Think there might be something wrong with the chart. It says it's in Millions but the bar numbers are already in the tens of thousands which would multiplied up to billions... I've heard many estimates on a transatlantic slave trade from 10 to 20 million. I'm just not sure how you could get accurate numbers on those. Former High School US history teacher.
I agree the count is difficult to digest with no reference. I don’t believe the Middle East was more. He should have compared the European slaves to Africa traded

Legislation banning slavery only came into affect in 1960's which middle East is still the biggest market place for African exploitation to this day. What else would you expect from barbarians?
@@caseyclover1647 The Turks outlawed slavery and there was not even a slave market in Anatolia. Also, thanks to Atatürk, Turkish women had the right to vote and be elected earlier than French, Italian and many European women. Until 1960, the Arabs did not ban slavery, and the Arabs are none of our business, we are Turks. You have exploited all of Africa and you are still racist against blacks. Americans and Brits have a bloody history, which is why they are the most hated countries in the world.
l didn't know that no Confederates died in the Civil War.
Haiti abolished slavery before the US and was punished by European countries and the US for it.
Slavery is still legal in the US.
Keep up the good work man, love your videos and how informative and unbiased they are. These kinds of videos will attract thick-headed people who speaks before thinking, but don't mind them. You're doing great. Keep it coming.
Excellent presentation
My great grandfather was one of the first who freed slaves before 1840.
He was a doctor and died in 1852 31 years old.
He had to by slaves to help him as a doctors assistent. He freed them directly, took them as a worker, thought the reading, writing, the Bible and 1 became a doctor too.
My great grandfather even did many effort to get special papers for the men so they could work as a doctor and be a free. Man.
your great grandfather was a great man, The Lords grace upon him!
Even my great father freed his slave and forced his daughter to marry him. Even now he's among our tribes
The slave trade was and still is a terrible trade no matter who practised it.But people are now starting to realise that the Europeans were taken in as large a number as Africans ,and the treatment that they received was just or in some cases more horrific, but people now tend to use it for there own political or religious reasons. If we’ll all pull together we can defeat it but not while people use what happened before any of us were born as a weapon
Very well done ty
I'm a white Bulgarian Slav and the Ottomans had us enslaved for nearly 500 years. There had been many attempts from our Slavic brothers to liberate us the most notable being from a Polish man named Vladislav III of Varna, where Varna is the city where the big battle took place it is also my home city. We have a very large museum dedicated to Vladislav III whom we call Vladislav Varnenchik (from the name of the city and him being Polish). He failed and was killed in that battle but his legacy lives on and he has his own crypt in my city dedicated to him. We remained enslaved for another 350 years until Russia declared war on the Ottomans in the late 1870s and they helped us mount a successful rebellion against the Turks. After that Bulgaria was free, well 70 years later communism came and we all know how that went. And now we have crony capitalism, the kind where you can openly bribe a politician and no one bats an eye. Us Bulgarians and Slavs at large just can't seem to get a break...every generation there is some new shit flying in our face.
Great job! Please do arab slave trade and african slave trade sometime. When it comes to slavery, everyone talks about the USA or the cultural "west" in general. But arabs and africans took slavery to the extreme, creating political entities and regimes completely different from any other political system known in history - like states that totally depended on the aquiring and trading of slaves - sub-saharan kingdoms like Mali - or the Mamluks, where the power of the rulers actually depended on the slaves themselves.
Africa is a continent, not a country.
You must be american.
I’m biased because I’m Greek, but when you’re Greek and your people were sort of enslaved for 400 years and nobody talks about it you get mad. The worst part is that during the Byzantine empire we did not enslaved or commit genocide on their population.
Robert Giusti I agree we East African Nilotic have fought the arabs for thousands of years
they weren't even in Anatolia until the decline of the byzantine empire
The byzantine empire had slavery
Your people were enslaved for 400 years? Then the Ottomans must have been really skillfull to keep that amount of population subdued under control. Or... Maybe your argument is totally false?
Yeah both Greek and Armenian genocide. So much for peaceful!
Thank you for shining your light on the world.
why did you sanitize this one? any particular reason?
5:34 slave trade route from pointy part of Somalia to Ethiopia to Saudi Arabia ‘weird flex but ok’
In UAE they’re actually considered arabs even though locals have distinctive ethnicities such as arab, ajam, and baloush. Yet you rarely hear them referring to people with african heritage as africans. Even though most people know that their ancestors were slaves brought from Zanzibar. In yemen, most people with african backgrounds are from Somalia, Ethiopia, and kenya. Until 2 generations ago marriages with those people were fairly common and accepted which explains why african genes are fragmented in most of the population and not concentrated in particular groups.
Black yemen never slave they from ethiopia
@@samisolomun6362 Some in the early modern period were. You are referring to an even older population that may have been assimilated ages ago.
Thank you for another great video! Have you considered doing a video on the Assyrian and Chaldean peoples of Iraq? One of our interpreters when I was deployed there was an Assyrian Christian. They seem very similar but he contended that they are very different and hostile towards eachother.
Great vid as always! An interesting community were the so-called 'Harapi' in Dobruja, in the Balkans near the Black Sea, which was the only Arab community in Europe before 1900. However, photos of these people show clear (partial) East-African origins, likely the result of the Slave trade or forced conscription. All of these 'Arabs' were assimilated into the local Turkish population which lived in that region at the time, and the few Turkish communities left today at the border region of Romania and Bulgaria, live more or less on the same spot where the Harapi used to live, thus passing on their genes.
10:12, listen careful, minecraft hit noise
Do you think a Turk I used to know who looked fairly Austrian might descend from slaves taken in the 1529 invasion and siege of Vienna?
+Hans-Georg Lundahl - I'm English and I'm interested in how you would recognize someone with an Austrian appearance.
The Turks took white slaves from everywhere. Do you know of this event:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sack_of_Baltimore
Although this happened in Ireland in 1631 the townsfolk were English in origin.
The Turks were already white when they started their empire in Anatolia.
+Unfortunately Not A Troll - No - they were more Chinese than European. Adopting Islam and the concomitant sexual slavery changed them.
@FiveLiver No,Check Oghuz,Caucasian,Tatar Turks.They don’t look Asian but half caucasoid asiatics even full asiatic Turks in east Asia doesn’t look like Chinese what the hell.
The Unknown Greeks and Armenians aren’t white.
At 11:00 I have a question. You mentioned there that it was the "second largest African diaspora". Earlier in the video you showed a graph that showed and also stated that the middle east slave trade or the Islamic slave trade (I forgot which term you used) dwarfed the Atlantic slave trade. Is it just that the middle east had a substantial amount of their slaves from Europe, or was is a misstatement, or was it something else like the middle east taking India slaves too?
very interesting
not sure if you've done it yet but please do the Australian/Tasmanian aborigines
9:09 9:12 Almost perfect pronounce
Thank you! Just thank you.
Thank you be blessed
This explains why many Middle Easters look African. Its great to see many of them acknowledge their African ancestry.
Yemen and the Middle East used to be Cushitic like east Africans and so was the whole middle east until all the invasions over the millenia of Greeks Romans Mongols Turks and Drividians made it a melting pot. Now the middle east is no longer black cushite.
Mr Person01 they hate it. I am from Morocco and we have a great great grandmother who was a black slave and it is considered taboo to talk about her. But TBH I don't see why would you have to chose one ancestor among hundreds to identify with?
Mr Person01 There is no "African" look, since Africa is racially diverse. Many Arabs have mixed with Bantus due to slave trade. However, there is also a much older Cushite admixture that is present in places like Yemen, Oman and Socotra, since Cushites have conquered Yemen in the past & have been trading & mixing with Semites for a very long time.
@@gostavoadolfos2023
Thanks for telling the truth
@@awsomeclipsnow
Bantus dint come along as the slave trade progressed they were there the whole time period
Well done! 👍🏻
The only place where Afro-Iranian population is a bit visible in Iran is in the Southern part of the country, mostly in Hormozgan and in a lesser extent in Bushehr Province. Afro-Iranians are partially the descendants of some African slaves from the Horn and Eastern part of Africa whom were brought in by the Portuguese colonists that had conquered some parts of the Northern and Southern tips of Persian Gulf prior to 15th century.
Cyrus The Great Horn of Africans werent slaves! I dont know why this channel said we were. I dont know why he included somalis since most slaves were from kenya, mozambique and Portuguese coast liberated by somali empires
The Truth You’re right. Thanks for the correction.
Cyrus The Great no problem. Your iranian right?
The Truth Yes, I’m a Persian.
Cyrus The Great I knew it since Cyrus made the Achaemenid empire and his son was known to have invaded egypt and nubia
Very well done videos I enjoy them very much.
Can you make a video about the BYZANTINE PEOPLE specifically? thanks i love this channel
Excellent btother ee are on the same page. Keep up the good work.
I always think the white part of thumbnail is the land and not sea.
It’s amazing how us Europeans get slandered for our past yet defend Arab Muslims despite their slave trade that was worse. And complain that we colonised them? They’ wish they were euros
Soundwave 47 regarding what’s worse is subject to subjective opinions so it’s hard to determine whether the treatment of them as it may defer according to different culture, religion or view, but regarding the amount of slaves enslaved, the Arabs surpass any slave trade before them
Greetings
1-Honestly we don't wish to be Euros
2-Slandered by whom ?? You mean your left wing right
3-Arabs are being slandered for their terrible history by many no one defend us
Elias Frahat lmao really? Well you sure love to try hard to get into European countries, and sure love European women and our way of life, it’s the extremist that reject it but come to European countries for other motivations. I mean it’s not bad to want to be European. Im sure there are many Europeans, and I know a few, that want to be Arabs or love Arab women etc. I guess we all love exotic peoples relative to our perspectives.
And yes we are slandered by left wing politics and communities which is the mainstream right now and even by own governments that literally bash themselves to the point that they are ashamed of being who they are.
And yes I know Arabs get slandered too but the thing is that Europeans get slandered by people that include many Arabs that try to avoid their own slandering by slandering others. Besides in western countries such slandering to Arabs doesn’t really exist anymore or else you’ll be called an islamophobe or a racist.
And not many slander Arabs for their history, as there are Christian Arabs. People mostly slander Muslims, it’s just idiots that just assume all Arabs are Muslim or even Levantine people to be considered Arabs. I know many Lebanese people that would say they’re Arab in the west but in the Middle East would not refer to themselves as such as the real Arabs are in Arabia.
But one thing I would like to add in addition is that, regarding the slave trade, it is noted by Islamic sources since the beginning of the invasion of hispania and Greek populated territories that there was an obsession with the women regarding their beauty.
An example are the chronicles written by Islamic scholars regarding Tarif leading an expeditionary force to probe the southern provinces of Spain and returned bringing back loot, and with “female captives so beautiful as Musa and his people had never seen” - al Haza’ini.
This would later entice Musa to invade Hispania.
So the fact that the Islamic slave trade that were enslaving Europeans, were not just for standard “servitude roles” unless ofc you were a man, seem to display an underlying sexual motivation in the enslavements of Europeans which doesn’t seem to be addressed relative to the amount of sources that awkwardly love to reinforce the beauty of these “peoples”. Unlike the European slave trade that exploited Africans primarily for their labour, where sexual abuse was just an added bonus for only some slave owners. For Muslims I cannot say the same as many chronicles say otherwise, both Islamic and Christian. Arab Muslims can be slandered for a lot worse than the Europeans but like I said no one can talk. But in this current day and era, we have Muslims, Arabs, etc. Slandering Europeans for their history despite their history possibly being worse than they would have originally thought. This slandering should stop in general, I mean I’m sick of arabized Levantine peoples saying that others are racist to Arabs when they’re not even Arabs. It’s like hispanics being all offended when you call them a ‘nigger’ as if they’re black. Everyone has to chill.
@@gaiusjuliuscaesar4201 I agree with you on everything
But for Arabs moving to the west it is mainly about Arab countries being terrible lately it is not really about Europe being better than Arabia, I dealt with some Arabs who wished if they were borned as Italians or germans and when I asked them why they said because how terrible their countries have became
Yes European womens are the most beautiful no doubt in that
Many levantians consider themselves Arabs and are being viewed as Arabs many people, so people will include them in their statements about Arabs and they will feel sad when someone say a negative thing about Arabs
Thanks for the conversation hope you have a nice day peace
Elias Frahat Lebanon isn’t too bad compared to the Arab nations surrounding it, it’s not under islamic law instead it is secular like Europe.
It is why even Europeans love going there.
Majority of Arabs have all become repatriated into the nation they now live in or are born in. And many that I’ve asked would not even want to go back to their country, despite being from Lebanon. Many that do only go for holidays but rather go to Europe before Lebanon. I personally would rather go to my ancestral homeland before any other nation in the world as a holiday.
It’s sad that these Arabs do not see their homeland in the same light as I do with my homeland.
But again, the Arabs that leave and love Europe are usually non Islamic Arabs.
The Islamic Arabs that come to the west either despise and disrespect the nation that they have been brought or born in. That’s why there’s a lot of slandering of Arabs in the west as they stupidly generalise all Arabs to be like this.
But there’s no denying that these people don’t love Europe, as those who go to america or even australia, always travel to Europe, always desire to move to Europe and to live in Europe. Even many Arabs I know change their names on Facebook to European last names to seem different. I know it may sound weird but that’s how I reacted when I first found out but now I find it normal for Arabs to do this lmao.
And idk European women are beautiful, but that is subject to opinion and preference, I know many that love Africans over anything lol. Many Europeans love Arabs it’s just the slandering gives a bad reputation.
And that is true, in the west anything east of Greece is Arab.
Even Turks are considered arabs. Yet they are not.
And prince of Dubai, what do you mean pigs blood?? What tribe?? I’m confused?? Arabs are not white they are brown. The reason some levantians are white is because the Europeans that conquered it and colonised it centuries before and mixed with the native populations and had less Arab interbreeding after Islamic conquest.
Also the Portuguese and British had colonised much of Arabia before so for all you know you could be white due to a tribe mixing with these European merchants. So don’t say stupid stuff like that, as the Middle East is a melting pot of different ancestry and cultures. It’s like if Europeans started hating Romans or the Germanic Scandinavian tribes that conquered and settled throughout the Europe.
But it’s good that you have some patriotism for your country, you should always have that, I understand where you’re coming from as I’d never want to live in an Arab country. Even if it would cost me my life, I rather die in my homeland than die in a foreign land.
Arabs should be proud of themselves as other people are.
The Chinese don’t give a shit about Arabs, Europeans, Africans etc. They are proud to be who they are, us Europeans once were like that until now, Arabs should be like that.
I’m Bosnian. My husband is African American. Jamaican descendant. They are beautiful people. I love the spirit of black people. If they ruled the world we would not have many issues. Mainly because they are not as racist as the rest of humanity. Please challenge me.
See whats happening in South Africa right now and tell me again how they are not racists
Huttu tutsi...
Thank you
I came to this comment section in search of cancer. I was not disappointed.
Same here
i guess comments are where you see what people really think.... that is why i like the comment sections
If only their was a such a thing as the brown man’s burden.
Would you ever do a video on animal genetic drift? Specifically horses, there are countless historical significant breeds that deeply impacted human development.
@Masaman , I have read Popovic's " The Revolt of African Slaves In Iraq" but it didn't explain the finer details of the Arab slave trade , nor did it touch on the resulting haplotypes of the trade and it's a 1976 copyright translated from the original french . If you could see fit I would appreciate a resource listing on your informative posts so I could do additional research without going back to college , the fees are high and the students dumb.I subbed .
Oof masaman, this video won't stay up too much triggering will happen
