So that's it for 2018 folks. What a year it's been! 1,000 to 87,000 subscribers!. It's been a wild ride. Just want to thank you all so much for your support over the past 12 months. New peeps- don't forget to subscribe for so much more in 2019. BIG plans afoot. Oh and let me know in the comments what you'd like to see covered in the future!
Oh and happy new year guys!!
I'd like it so much if you could show us RECLAIMING CONSTANTINOPLE next year. Thank you!
DEUS VULT!
To be frank I don't remember how many subs you had when I joined.
8300% increase is amazing!
Let the next year be even better then the last one!
Mate, don't think that you have to big up armchair historian's channel. His videos are baby's first history channel garbage
Thanks for a lot of great videos. I think it could be interesting if you would do some more stuff on mainland European politics of the early middle ages. Topic ideas are the Frankish queen Brunhilde, the breakup of Francia, Lombard Italy and the Slavic migrations to Eastern Europe. But I'll be happy to watch anything you do :)
I'm Central Asian Turkmen. I went to a boarding school run by Anatolian Turks.
When I asked my Turkish teacher if we were cousin nations, he said "No, we are literally one nation, separated by the Iron Curtain for a generation".
This makes our relationship with the Anatolian Turks, and other Middle Eastern Turkmen, much closer.
We are not just one of the Turkic nations, like the Kazakhs or Kyrgyz.
Historically speaking, until very recently, all the Oghuz Turks were called Turkmen.
I have met people from these countries.
From Turkmenistan, to Iraq, Syria, Azerbaijan, and Turkiye, there is a linguistic and cultural continuum.
I can't begin to explain the warm and brotherly feeling I got when I met them for the first time, and realized our dialects are for about 70% mutually intelligible, and that rises up to 95% after listening to each speak for few hours.
I get emotional just talking about it 😅
Thank you for making this 🙏
Much love from the Netherlands
Bro how the fuck you ended up in netherlands
Love seeing another person from the netherlands in the comment section. (:
I'm 100% dutch myself, but It's bizzare to me how I (and prob on most dutch school's) never got taught about this history.
YOU NEED & SHOULD RETURN TO YOUR MOTHER LANDS & START BUILDING YOUR OWN COUNTRY .
MUCH OF YOUR LAND IS DESERT BY NATURE BUT LOOK AT SAUDI ARABIA , BUILDING CITIES ON DESERT SANDS JUST BY SELLING OIL & GAS .
RETURN TO YOUR MOTHER LANDS 1_ ANATOLIA 2_ KILIKIA ARE NOT TO WHERE YOU BELONG TO . 1_ ARABS 2_ OSMANIAN KIDNAPPED & TRANSPORTED YOU TO ANATOLIA , KILIKIA TERRITORIES TO USE YOU AS MERCENARIES FOR ATTACKING CHRISTIAN NATIONS , EASTERN EUROPEANS NATIONS .
DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH AGAIN TO FIND OUT 1_ HOW LONG AGO TURKIK SPEAKING POPULATION HAVE BEEN TRANSFERED TO ANATOLIA , KILIKIA ?
2_ WHAT OTHER INDIGENOUS - NATIVE POPULATIONS ARE & HAVE LIVED ON ANATOLIA, KILIKIA LANDS FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS .
DO NOT LISTEN TO OSSMAN _ TURKIK SPEAKING RULERS IN ANATOLIA , KILIKIA , CONSTANTINOPLE TERRITORIES...
I AM A NATIVE ARMENIAN CHRISTIAN , WE HAVE SUFFERED FROM ATTACKS BY 1_ MONGOLIANS OSSMANIC TURKIK SPEAKING POPULATION IN PAST 200 HUNDREDS YEARS : NOT ONLY US BUT 1_ GREEKS 2_ PERSIAN 3_ RUSSIAN 4 _ ASSYRIAN & MANY OTHER INDIGENOUS PEOPLE WHO ARE LIVING ON TERRITORY THAT IS NOT A " DESERT" BASED LAND .
YOU MONGOLIANS OSSMANIC TURKIK SPEAKING POPULATION ATTACK & KILL THOSE NATION_STATE PEOPLE WHO ARE CHRISTIANS WITH FERTILE LANDSCAPE , YOU MONGOLIANS KILL WOMEN & CHILDREN TO " DEPOPULATE" THE CITIES , VILLAGES , SO YOU ( TURKIK SPEAKING POPULATION ) CAN RESIDE THERE & USE THE HOUSES , GARDENS, FARMS,FARM ANIMALS .
YES MY FRIEND ; DON'T JUDGE BY USING YOUR " EMOTIONS " , JUDGE BY THE FACTS OF 1_ HISTORICAL EVIDENCE 2_ INFRASTRUCTURE OF CHRISTIAN RELIGION ON ANATOLIA , KILIKIA & CONSTANTINOPLE 3_ CHRISTIAN CULTURAL EVIDENCE PRESENT IN KILIKIA , ANATOLIA .
I AM SURE THESE COUPLE OF PARAGRAPHS MAKES YOU THINK TO KNOW ABOUT " MONGOLIAN _ OSSMANIC" HISTORY , BACKGROUND , CULTURE & MORE & THINK OF BUILDING YOUR OWN HOUSES & BUSINESS & SCHOOL INSTEAD OF STEALING OTHER NATIONS BELONGINGS BY MASSACRE, KILLING THEM ...
IF YOU NEED TO KNOW MORE TRUTH ABOUT MONGHOL_ OSSMANIC HISTORY OR A DIALOGUE PLEASE REPLY TO MY WRITTEN STATEMENT...
Proto turks have nothing in common with modern Turks. They had Asian features while modern Turks are mixed mostly resembling Arabs.
COULD ONE OF YOU " TURKIK SPEAKING INDIVIDUALS " 1_ WRITE OR 2_ DOWNLOAD A PICTURE OF TURKIK LANGUAGE " ALPHABET , PLEASE , THANK YOU .
I am 76 years old and consider myself and educated man. Yet, I have never heard any of this remarkable history. This knowledge is essential to begin to grasp the state of the world today. Thank you for the production of this work.
This man deserves much praise for commitment to chronicling accurate and detailed history.
"Consider myself and educated"
Tard
The real thanks needs to be given to anyone who appreciates learning, regardless of age. Practical wisdom is accepting that we always have much to learn, regardless of age. In other words, that you still keep yourself open to learning, despite having experienced so much, is the real triumph, and deserving of admiration.
zionist dont want you to know this history because they fear them
This sort of knowledge is obscure for a reason.

Shit, Turkish history is wildly interesting! And I don’t mean Turkeys history, but the history of the Turks and Mongols. I wouldn’t be apposed to seeing a 30 hour documentary on a Turkish history with detail like this!
I'm working on a VERY VERY huge documentary, I will send It to you when I finish it, I just started today :)

To have history you have to create, not destroy
@@argishtenterprise Turks didnt destroy anything sir, In war anything can be destroyed, everyone In this world has destroyed something, does that mean no one have a history? To have a history you have to live through It and Turks did It, I don't know what you are talking about tho, a lot of touristic places In Turkey was build by the Turks, I'm not even talking about the other ones.
Actually, the Byzantines and Armenias had prior knowledge of the Turks when they were still known as the "Western Göktürk Empire". They had good relations with the Byzantines, and were allied with them against the Persians. So the Byzantines knew much about the Turks, and their ways, and probably so did the Armenians.
yes, the byzantines and Göktürks tried to build and alliance to crush the Persians but at the end it never happened
@@bigsmoke1787 it did actually happen , the Sassanids were blockading the Eastern Romans from the Silk Road trade and the Gokturks would open a new route through Central Asia and Crimea. This act of securing the passage of trade from China to Crimea allowed the Byzantines to be capable of waging war on the Sassanids. If not for this trade route they would crumble under the blockade.
Gokturk armies would also help the Eastern Romans against the Sassanids in the Caucasus region. The Gokturks would also capture the region known as "Transoxiana" during these events.
@@OljeiKhan sağol aga
Eastern Roman Empire had units of Turcoples cavalery units in their army long before seljuks came to anatolia
There also the Khazars. And Basil who is mentioned early in this vid is known as the Bulgar Slayer, and the Bulgars are nomads. Plus the Khazars that helped the Byzantines against the Arabs.
Man, I am glad Armchair Historian gave you that shout out. This is some high quality content!!
Thanks for watching!
1-)The military success of the Turks was so high that they managed to establish 11 states in Iran.(920 years)
2-)India was dominated by Turkic states for 1000 years.(Mughal,Delhi,Hepthalites,Ghazne)
3-)They managed to establish seven states in Europe.
As a Tatar, maybe I may not look at the objective, but I say that military service is our job.
Fuck off idiot dont joke mongoli
2) Not exactly true. We are only talking about northern India here. And this is bound to trigger some folks... but by no means is India dominated if the rest of India had being un-breachable from the north.
When you talk about domination, do you mean mostly culture, military positions, governance or men of arms? For example, let's say that a Turkic state had controlled a patch of Northern India for about 100 years or more. The same former empire used to have contentious wars with their neighbouring kingdoms to the south. Then wouldn't you say that by then, even the majority of natives will define themselves as being a citizen of that dynasty? So when they fight and make incursions down south, would that be a Turkic military endeavour or 'Indian'?
Truth of the matter is when analysing past history through modern lens, we add inaccurate unnecessary labels and assumptions about the past.
@@qus.9617
ghazne,mughal and delhi is turkic state.It was founded by the Turks and all the rulers were of Turkic origin.and states belong only to the monarchs, and because they had a monarchical reign.The rajputs were the sex slave of the Mughals.Stop steal someone else's states.
What's that got to do with it, stupid?
is Brazil a Portuguese state then?She spoke Portuguese, didn't she?geography Portugal geography is not it?The state culture is the same Portuguese culture.Well then why doesn't anybody say that Brazil is a Portuguese country?Because it's ridiculous and stupid.
For example
Countries that use Spanish as an official language: Spain, Cuba, Argentina, Bolivia, Colombia, Costa Rica, Chile, Ecuador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Uruguay and Venezuela.and all of them in Spanish geography.but no one is concerned with it.
@@hannibalbarca2928 I am sorry to say that your entire comment was a waste of time to read. I ask a few questions about the actual impact of native and turkic culture in northern India, among other things. I also questioned your claim that it dominated India for 1000 years if most of the history many independent Hindu kingdoms survived and thrived in the plateau and in the tip of India. I also merely mentioned the powerful impact that the vice-versa of culture had on the rulers and Turks coming into India and the overall contributions of natives to a new dynasty after the centuries of initial rule. Though I presume it must be nice to have black and white cookie cutter analysis from an armchair general like yourself. Where entire regions simply become coloured one dye after a few selective factors.
And you proceed to rant about the Spanish language, colonial Brazil (which was composed of African, Japanese, Italian etc culture which exactly proved my point ironically about Brazil not being a Portuguese culture genius) and sex slaves. The only disingenuous one here is you buddy. Unless you're interested in a discussion, I have no need to waste further time on you.
I must have hit a nerve to illicit such a vile unwarranted response. Maybe because a matter of fact is, your cultures have always had to rely on more advanced cultures to elevate your own culture to a higher cultural point of development, which is almost always one direction. Hell, if you're proud of your culture's achievements at being good at killing people and stealing people's ideas, more power to you. You must also can't stand the fact, that the country continue to run itself through the expertise of the natives, with nothing more than a regime change and a new parasitic class needing welfare to stay on top, as was the case for many nomadic conquerors.
At least the Brits and Romans brought ideas to the table.

Greetings from greece! Always nice to see part of our common history with turks
Niceeeee👍
Your people are still part of our life today. Just converted to Islam (good or bad, who knows) and sadly forgot their old language.
Most Turks are actually of Greek descent. The turkish genes are a minority.
@@cormacmcquillan7093 well its more like most Greeks are ethnic Anatolians i think and not originally from the islands. Most christians who could speak fled to Greece.
Most of the Greeks from the population exchange came from the costal areas where Greek migration had always been strong. The central anatolian areas were turkified heavily earlier on.
"These populations are long haired, good archers, very skilled in carving ram and horse statues from stone. They called their God Khan-Tengri." (Moisey Kagankatvasi, The History of Agvan, Regarding Turk existence in Eastern Anatolia in 7th century)

*once more
Central Asia you mean. I through oghuz turks immigrate to Anatolia when mongol attack us by 12 centres
nick shen Not sure what you are saying, but with „the Mongols“ usually refers to the Mongol Empire, which was mostly made up of Turkic Peoples, but ruled by mongols
‘’The History’’ was written by the Largest Empires such as British, Mongol, Great Selcuq, Ottoman, Russia, Spanish, Ummayad, GokTurk Khaganate, Khazar Khaganate, Roman, Timurid etc. They had built the world map, while others were living under their rules. Possible ways of measuring their size include area, population, economy, and power. They had consistent power and strategy to spread across the Continents and huge areas and build a system to manage countries and its people. There are many nationalities, unfortunately, who had been disappeared as a result of the war. They are those, who resisted without having compatible capability and resources. BCE (Before the Common Era) etc that people share today, are Purely Myth and subjective views of some individuals. Last 1000 years still may have more relevant and accurate information, which still being interpreted by people. However, sounds like only Turkish Empires/ Dynasty has left huge Turkish countries who is in current world map. They are Turkey, Kazakhstan, Kirgizstan, Turkmenistan, Azerbaijan, Uzbekistan.
@Imran Akram yes, I do believe that, I am from Naiman tribe of kazakh, its very hard to tell the difference between us and Mongolian just by looking .

There were no Kurds in Anatolia. Kurds are just Iranian Nomads from the Iranian plateau. Anatolia was entire Christian.
They will probably believe they were in anatolia before Turks
Kurds are the descendant of Hurrian/Mitanni, and Meded empire. Kurds were in Anatolia before any religion, before Jewish, Christian, and muslim.
You are right
@@harrank2786 you are full of shit,, learn history 3rd world gypsie,, Babylonians were there before kurds
@@harrank2786 its like me now strolling walking along and I say,, I like your land and now its mine???? this is iranian nomads mentality
The strength of the this steppe nomads is not in their horse archery. It's in their nomadic lifestyle. This nomads travel in caravan, with their families and livestock in tow. They are essentially a self-sustain army which help contribute to their impressive display of mobility. They are also used to live a frugal lifestyle, so they can go a long way with very little. Compare this to the settled people. Their army need a long and vulnerable supply line and a substantial amount of creature comfort just to keep their moral.
Strenght is technology Rahman..While % 99 of world live in Bronze-Crapy iron age Turks was mastered every single metals..They found a Damascus steel secret..can you imagine how powerful tech is it ? you are a enemy with sword 5kg crapy iron you try to swap it..And the Turks normaly no need to even jump down from horse can head shot you from 100 yard anyway but lets say he wanted to face to face..with 500 gram sword cutting 5kg iron shit like cheesee...Strenght is Sultan Mehmet and made Şahi cannons..one bullet ripe Whole byzantine walls..like Atom bombs of 1400ish...so if you wanna taste strenght..in any age you must hold the technology and move with new age..
Its both
@mahmut mahmutoglu How is that even possible? Settled peoples have specialization. Settled peoples always had advantage in tech. Did the nomads have a segment of their population that know how to mine for iron? I doubt it. They must have bought their steel from settled peoples.
@@MbisonBalrog its a bit complicated turks were nomads so there is no detailed history about turks but they were great blacksmiths for the damascus steel turks are the one who made it
@@MbisonBalrog Weren't the Gokturks originally blacksmiths?
people are so obsessed with mongols that they don't realize mongolian armies were mainly turkic. those who didn't submit to the mongolian rule migrated to west, conquering all the way to balkans.
Source?
The term Turkic was generic term for Nomadic people north of China not particular ethnic group back in the day like how name Tatar was applied to the nomadic people from the north as well . Back then you had so many different clans with similar life style who sometimes spoke different languages but had same religious (tengrism)
For example Mongol was just a sub tribe but because the ruling class were them that is why the Mongol empire was named after them similar to how Gokturk was named after the blue Turks or the Ashina clan even tho the majority of the army was Tiele people
Even Prophet Muhammed peace be upon him when talking about nomads or people from Siberia and north Asia he called them Atrak or Turks
@@kila200 Yes they were . But I am saying the Gokturks were name of the empire because of the family that ruled it the Ashina or the blue Turks even though like I have said the majority of their forces were from 40 tribes of Tiele and other Steppe nomads including Mongolic tribes
@@jetli2086 Turkic people have mostly same ethnic background
I dont know if you've watched the Netflix series Marco Polo
But it shows that one of the subjects of the Yuan mongol led dynasty of china was the Uighur tribes
Its mentioned in a scene when they were discussing taxes and tributes
History is so incredibly complex. Central Asian, even more so!
I wish people did some deep reading into history before using what little knowledge they have to build their opinions
It is indeed incredibly complex. It's a glorious rabbit hole you fall into.
Well said.
But, but, but, if it was not for R..n it would not be complicated.
No actually it is very simple.1000 years ago every country was Turkish.See,in 1 sentence.
Man I can't tell you how right you are!
I don't understand why this video has so many dislikes. It's only a video about actual history in great detail.
we call it butt hurt :D
When people try to retrofit their current political beliefs onto a historical narrative and discover stuff they don't like
This said I also disliked because of the repetitive hodgepodge of incompatible and often irrelevant maps
my grandfather and grandmother are nomadic people. Although Ottoman nomadic Turks make a lot of effort to settle down, nomadic life is indispensable for Turks. As our ancestor Dadaloğlu, a nomadic Turk, said the edict sultan's mountains are ours.

At last, a History of this part of the World, from their viewpoint! Most of what we have is from European sources, tainted by their past Political and Religious Aditudes towards this part of the World. What I like most about your channel, is your ability to show all sides of History, without bias towards any one side and how they inneract with each other over time. Most of the older European History, is written as seen by the Culture or Nation of the Historian and often modified to fit their views of people's seen as Historical enemies of Europe. We want to look at the History of these People through their own eyes, to see them as they see themselves, the True History. Keep up the Great Work!
Thanks so much. Glad you like the channel!
@@HistoryTime You earned it, reliable History without bias is a rare treasure in today's world! Looking forward to seeing the one million subscriber Party!!!!
@@fvefve12 I'll check that out, to truly understand History you have to see it from all sides, not just one. Its like learning about the Second World War with the American History taught in Highschool, a very condensed one sided version of what actually happened. By its nature, it only shows a brief version of what one Country did, leaving out ninity percent of what actually happened. For the other Countries involved, you get less than a paragraph, sometimes only a sentence or two. They encourage you to study the War on your own, as the library has much more detailed book's on the subject, few do and have a very one sided veiw of the War. I've read over twenty book's from different Countries and still learn new things I hadn't heard of, you just can't cover six years of a World War in any one book. History isn't the story of just one Country or Culture, it's a record of Humanity and how it inneracts with itself through time. If you just know about Germany from what Highschool History says, you think Evil Nazis! But if you study Germany from 1918 to 1939, you understand why Germany took the path it did and how the same thing could happen again. Thanks for the Information! The Crusades and the Politics/Religion behind it is a very convoluted time in History, with things like the Children's Crusades, which is very hard to understand today!

Anatolia is full of 6000 years of archaeological - historical - scientific and linguistic evidence belonging to the Sumerians, who were proven to be of Turk origin 100 years ago, but do you call this historiography and my history? 1016 huh! We are the indigenous race of Asia and we do not have the African gene in our Y DNA, nor did we spread to the world through Africa!!! We now have 40,000 years of genetically proven history. geneticist doctor Spencer Wells, dated 2005. Middle Eastern tribes do not come from the same origin as Africans, but they lived together for a long time and mixed with each other. The entire humanity of the world consists of the people belonging to these 3 races and the mingling of the tribes belonging to these 3 races. Jews and Palestinians are both middle eastern races but they are not like us! we don't kill our blood brothers who are aware of who they are, but they kill and murder without even looking at the tears in their eyes!!!

What about the Hungarians? They were nomads from beyond the Ural Mountains who also settled in Europe
ANSWER IS SIMPLE HUNS TRIBE HUNGARY only to not by racist with our huns roma indo iranics from hungary becouse much peoples is racist with our tribes who remains there in times of old huns who was decimated by franks and maghyars dont know the roma hungro is from huns our tribes from estern europes
Karl The Magyars crossed over the Carpathian’s about a century before, and were largely of Finno-Urgic origin rather then their Turkic neighbors, enemies and sometimes allies.
@Alt Metin Actually we can't say that since Turks like adopting nicknames of epic generals or kings. For instance name "Fatih" is actually a nickname or epithet but we use it as a regular name now.
definitely not , Hungarians are not Huns , their DNA is almost similar to the neighboring Slovaks
finlands and hunfary were scythian related, they llived at north caspian sea and by the first turkish rush to west they moved to east europe. i mean its in attila history .

I had had no idea about the process of the climate change in Asia affecting the Turkic migration. That's a really interesting idea. When i was at university, the teaching centred on the need to bring the feudal nobility of Frankia under control.
I'm deeply impressed with such a quality video. The maps in particular were exceptional too.
Great work.
Really appreciate you watching my friend! Don't get me wrong, expansionism certainly played a massive part, but the initial catalyst in my opinion, for the decline of Eastern Rome and the Caliphate, and ensuing wars that followed was the climate catastrophe. These things are always more complicated than they first seem
History Time even though I did my honors thesis at uni on the interaction between the Greeks and the Seljuks, and this is a topic that does very much interest me, I'd like to add my voice to those who are asking for a Ghaznavid Video, and to bring your series on the Great Seljuks all the way down to the end of the dynasty in 1194.
"What would you do if you were the victorious and I the vanquished?
"Drag you in an iron cage through the streets of Constantinople."
"My punishment is far heavier. I forgive you and set you free."
Allegged exchange between Alp Arslan and Romanos IV after the Battle of Manzikert.
Set him free? Wasn't there an absolutely insanely high ransom for Romanus?
Daniel D that was the punishment. He returned to Constantinople and was deposed,killed and blinded by his political rivals
Well, he blinded Romanos before he set him free, though
ellin67 no he didn’t. The Seljuks had a policy of not harming royals. Alp arslan was also negotiating with romanos and wanted to exchange towns and pastures for Presents and gifts. While still captive he was overthrown in a palace coup, and when released he was quickly defeated and detained by members of the Doukas family. In 1072, he was blinded and sent to a monastery, where he died of his wounds.
boxhead mcparcelson not quite he didn’t die in the monastery and he wasn’t just blinded but also castrated and some princess took power, he became emperor again, he killed the queen, ruled for several years before he was killed by assassin

Turcja. Wspaniały kraj ze wspaniałą historią.
It is not Turkish history it is Anatolian history Turkey is a new country
@@VB-mv7mf 💀 so much cope
Its history of the TURKISH people, the people who have come to these lands and established the country of TURKEY in the same lands. The video is talking about how those people who established turkey came to these lands, therefore it is undeniably turkish history.
By your logic history of prussia isnt history of germany because germany is a relatively new country and that it doesnt even own prussia anymore. or history of the ussr and the russian empire arent russian history because the russian federation was born only 30 years ago.
And dont even try to argue “uhhhhh turks only have 30% central asian dna therefore theyre all not turks!!!” The turks have assimilated many peoples throughout their history but they still have kept their languages and traditions while accepting and adopting some customs from the locals, would you rather they employ the same tactics the south africans used to keep themselves “genetically pure”? It doesnt matter at all whose blood you got, the thing that matters is the language that you speak and your loyalties, and many countless turks have demonstrated this throughout history and even recent history.
You could literally make the claim that history of the ottoman empire is greek history because the sultans married greeks and had their blood in them, a claim which will honestly be immediately rejected by any greek or turk.

Video contains errors and Superficiality.
In philosophy, what is built on a false introduction gives a false result.
- Building that era on climate change.
- To spread a certain culture to all Turkish peoples.
There are Turkish kingdoms and empires that appeared before the Seljuk Empire for hundreds of years.
At that time there were Islamic Turkish kingdoms, namely the Ghaznavid Empire and the Karakhanid Kingdom since the 9th, 10th and AD centuries.
Prince Seljuq broke away from the ruler of the Oguz in Central Asia because of internal conflict and went to the Samanid state. The Samanid state relied heavily on the Turkish element and tried to expand in the Turkic country. The Seljuks maintained allegiance to the Samanid until the last moment.
After the collapse of the Samanid state, the Seljuks went to Khorasan. The Ghaznavids had a major goal of controlling India, which was rich in its wealth, an extension of the Kushan and the White Huns, and did not care about the Khorasan.
This helped the Seljuks and gave them legitimacy to control the Orient
There were problems in the Middle East: the conflicts of the Buyid state that were not mentioned in the video, the struggle for succession between the Abbasid and Fatimid branches, the expansion of the military Byzantines.
This environment created an environment and legitimacy for the expansion of the Seljuks to the west and the achievement of several objectives, stopping the Byzantines and maintaining the Abbasid caliphate and reshaping the Islamic world. This is true. There were problems with the tribes, but there was a state and a Sultan subject to it and dealing with problems.
If the conflict was political and religious.
The second mistake is the socialization of all Turkish peoples. Firstly, nomads is a common culture among all the peoples of the world. It is subject to geographic and economic data, not a defect. History books have mentioned several peoples of nomadic origins who have made civilizations. Turkish people pride themselves on their cultural diversity and roots.
Second, not all Turkish people were nomads. All elements of urban life were found by the Turks more than 2,000 years ago.
You mentioned the karakhanid and they were stable people and people of cities and countryside in central and interior Asia, where there is a vast Turkish region From North of the Syr Darya to Lake Isik known by the Turks as the province of Argo.
Ghaznawis in the south of Khorasan and the city of Ghazni.
The kingdom of the Khazars was a stable people in the Volga and Caspian region.
Uighurs have a stable people in Tarim and Mongolia.
And others ,,,,
Not all the people of the Oguz were nomads, they were a diverse society with cities and towns, probably true, most of them pastoralists.
Fortunately, there is an ancient Turkish dictionary in the Middle Ages that contains hundreds of vocabulary in urban and rural life.
The rise of the Turkish people and their sovereignty in the world is a historical inevitability, which took place under objective conditions, created civilizations and left many imprints on human cultures.
A Coptic historian named John of Nikiû wrote this phrase in the seventh century AD: "God conquers the Romans with Arabs and Turks."
Arabs with the Caliphate Empire.
turks With the kingdoms of the Bulgars, the khazars and the Avar, who besieged the Byzantines in Europe.
And in the East with the empires of Goktürk, Shahi Turk and Uyghur.
Unfortunately, there are ugly racist comments, military expansion is the character of the ancient world, the Greeks with Alexander the Great, Romans, Persians, Assyrians, Arabs and others.
Some of these comments attack the Mongolian race, which has made great civilizations and global empires.
This Western racist forgets the Western expansion of the American continent, the removal of the maya civilization and Aztec civilization, the cultures of indigenous peoples, the expansion of Africa, the theft of its wealth, the expansion of East Asia and the wars of opium.
I apologize for my broken English.
Illustration:
In the Uighur people, Tarim is the province of Xinjiang in western China known as East Turkistan.
In the quick response to racial comments, since the Turks have been ethnically mixed peoples since ancient times, there are many racist comments attacking the Mongol race spread in East Asia, Southeast Asia, Central Asia and the Americas. People belonging to the Mongol race are human beings like the rest of humanity Belonging to other races.
People belonging to the Mongol race have created many civilizations and world empires, and have the most powerful economies in the world.
The Mongol race has different colors, different features and special beauty standards.
@@Reader_curiosity I would really recommend you to just ignore these ugly racists they would never understand that god created us different from one another and no race or colour is better than others so don't waste your time explaining that to them if they don't believe in these simple facts.
Finally a logical comment. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us. Don't mind racists. They know the truths but they just close their eyes. I hope you have happy days thorough your life.

In the 20th century you had a political initiative "Speak Turkish Citizen!", which didn't even let children at school speak their native language with other children. You were resettling hundreds of thousands Kurds, Armenians, Georgians, Circassians, so you could mix them up to erase our identity and you call someone bad because he is a nationalist?

You managed to give such a complex topic a diligent and intelligent analysis and presentation, so well done. Not very relevant over a year later, but in any case when you tackle complex topics like this in the future, the presentation side of things could benefit from some more clearly-delineated organisation, breaking-up or signposting the topic into sections (either using visual or auditory cues). It just might make it flow more easily.

Yes, i always think about this because name of "Byzantine" came from HRE who want erase Rome name from Eastern Rome. Because they want to be a only Rome in around.
Gökay Göktuğ the name Byzantine empire was never used while the Eastern Roman empire was around. It was some time after Constantinople fell that it was first mentioned and it was only popularized in the 19th century.
@Armin S Of whom their inhabitants identified as Roman and had been the continuation of Rome after the split.
@Armin S I bet you're one of those people who think all Italians are somehow Roman.
@@wildfire9280 Well they are.
I like your style, gives me back that feeling of the good old documentaries, this is the modern form they should have evolved into.
From the 7th to the 9th centuries, Emperor Taizong of Tang of China's Great Tang Empire, the world's most powerful nation, invaded the First Turkic Khaganate. And the East Turkic Empire, which became the conquered area of the Greater Tang Empire of China, was conquered by the Greater Tang Empire, and the surviving Western Turkic Empire moved west toward Anatolia and established the Seljuk Empire. Later, in the 13th century, the Mongol Empire, the world's most powerful country that conquered the world, invaded the Seljuk Empire. The Seljuk Empire becomes a colony of the Mongol Empire. And the Timurid Empire, a descendant of Genghis Khan, invaded the Ottoman Empire again and took Sultan Bayezid I as a prisoner of war, turning the Timurid Empire into a semi-colony. Whenever I study world history textbooks, I think that world history always flows towards the history of the strongest hegemon.
O zaman "Tengri biz Menen" diyelim
Son of Mountain Kurdistan is dead... and will never rise... moron of the ideology by Hitler called Aryan..
Imran Turkmen TengriBizMenen
Son of Mountain yup and fought byside with the Turks ;)
and that spot is in Iraq as a autonomous Region
Son of Mountain Ataturk didnt lie the Kurds... he killed every ultra islamist that he found.
Those were Turks, Kurds, Armenians, Arabs and whatsoever...
Many Kurds those times (1922) where the ones who fought most and suffered most to save a dead empire byside with Ataturk... *one of the most*
Ataturk called everyone to fight for a dead empire... a lot of Laz, Zaza and Kurds helped Ataturk... even Ataturk had Kurdish friends even Armenian friends... who called themself as Turks.
even to save todays Syrian/Turkish borders in those times did the Kurds fight a lot...
well.. in a other way are you right...
Ataturk did ultra islamists also those who would be a threat for turkey after like many many years... for example is the usa trying to use the kurds in splitting Turkey... (thankfully are most for Turkey, can also write why if you want)
and Ataturk knew that something like this would happen...
in a other way do the Kurds need to be thankfully towards Turkey... in the iraq-iran war... 500k Kurdish refugees had been taken into Turkey (which are now up to 12/14% turkeys population)
Even today.. in those 4m refugees are up to 300k Kurds.. which even todays Kurdish citizens of Turkey dont like to have them in Turkey... (can tell aswell why if you want)..
Yes there are many Kurds who want a Kurdistan... and those are up to 3% - 5% of kurdish population in turkey.. also in my mind do they have nothing to do in Turkey... I would kick them out..
Saruv Bet fuck your allah arabs fake god

Thank you very much for sharing this history.
Wali Farhang Wht do u have ur profile picture of the American flag?
@@isthatskk7042 I'm a Turkmen American U.S citizen
You are proud of murders and invaderors. Fuck you
@@armans4306 I disagree with you! I feel bad for both sides who had lost their life in the battlefield.
Muhtesem, amazing story telling
Extremely well made documentary!
Insant sub! A very profesional presentation. love the music!
Very interesting video! From what i have read so far regarding Anatolia it seems that it's population today is a mix of all the people who have passed from that region such as Hittites,Greeks,Armenians, Kurds, Nomadic Turks and others. A mosaic of peoples.
@@akammido7481 Lol shut up. You guys are native to only Iran!! Stop lying about being in Anatolia for thousands of years. If we didn't let you come to Anatolia in 16 century you guys would get killed because of being Sunni Muslim. The Shii kurds stayed in İran. Go want land from Iran not us!!! We saved your lives that's how you thank us??!!
@Nadir Kuleli Turks history just full of lies. Kurds are descendants of hittites. The language tells the truth. Türks are from far East asia, you idiot. Your forefathers are kurds.
@Kayserili38ification your version is full of turkish lies. Land of karda mentioned by romans and greeks. Kawa, the founder of the persian empire were kurd. You don't want to accept the existence of the kurds.
kurds? who are they? You mean gypsies of nothing? no history and no leader. no state ? So, who are they?
If Saxons leave Britain and Franks leave Gaul; we will leave Anatolia, I promise.
Deal
The problem is that you Banned PORK , MY Yummy Pork !
Sultan's Children Taker by Nicholas Siderakis
A Hellene breathes in the fine misty air
His ancestors souls whispering in the breeze
Mothers shout cries of agony
So that the Sultan's children taker would not confiscate their boys
A savage lurks in the shadows
Your child's pulse shall palpitate with fanaticism
Emanating from a trigger happy janissary
Ready to cut down his own flesh and blood
Keep your boys safe
So one day they shall not turn against motherland
Raise them so they shall eat bread from your hand
Tell them about their fathers:
Socrates, Aristotle, Plato, and Constantine
Let them breathe in the wisdom of the Hellene air
Keep the candle lit so their hope will stay alive
They are Europeans living in European lands, not Asiatic invaders
@@tirig6346 If someone enters a country ILLEGALLY then, like President Trump said are considered invaders. There are international laws against illegal immigration. Vice versa, if a European entered your country illegally, then he/she would be considered an illegal alien. They are Europeans if they possess a European Union passport. That's the LAW.
Whew! I remember your old videos! Congrats on actually trying to get better unlike some other history channels! (Cough cough Armchair Historian, cough cough) I was like “wait, this is the SAME CHANNEL?”
