First ever Mongolian state appeared in 20th century. Before 20th century Mongolians had neither their own state, nor their own army. What historians are referring to as Mongolian Empire, actually was a Russian-Tatar empire. Tatars are Europeans. Tatar ethnos originated on the northern coast of Black Sea.
Asia was colonized by Volga Tatars. Many Asian tribes in the process of colonization lost their languages and switched to one or other dialect of Tatar language. After the defeat in a civil war, an old regime horde moved to Central Asia and it also contributed to spreading of Tatar language into Asia.

Meat-eating Mongols were probably a huge factor when Genghis Khan expanded his empire. Some historians discuss the fact that Mongol soldiers were superior to Chinese soldiers because the Mongols ate a diet with high-quality meat and fat, making them strong and healthy. The Chinese soldiers were fed mostly rice which made them weaker. Also, the Mongolian soldiers ate a lot of raw meat and did not have to prepare food during wartime, which also gave them an advantage on the battlefield.
That was not a raw meat, that was a “Borts” it’s cold air dried meat. Borts is more nutritious, and said to be tastier, than other modern field rations. There is an unconfirmed method from old times: Mongolian nobles relied on borts for months-long journeys. Dried carefully for three years and then ground into a fine powder, until it all could fit through a sieve. It further shrinks volume of the borts so whole cow's meat can fit into a cow's bladder. Just a pinch of borts prepared like this said to able to nourish 3-4 people in a soup form.
@@mekhzakhq976 Sounds like Pemmican that indians used to prepare in America. Many historians claims that Mongols did eat raw meat though. Somethimes they would take the raw meat and place it on the saddle of their horse and sit on it when riding. After a while the meat would soften up and became less tough to chew.
@@connorlancaster7541 I do my best, but my merit is not mine. Jesus died for me because I could not obey Him fully. He gave me His righteousness. So now I strive to live my life for Him out of thankfulness.
Subutai is considered by historians to be one of the greatest generals of all time. He was the chief military strategist of both Genghis Khan and his son Ogedei. The Mongol Empire is documented as the largest land empire ever. Subutai had a lot to do with this but history generally fails to properly give him the credit.
Well during Genghis khans era. Genghis khan himself was a chief tactican. After that Muqali and Boorchi were most likely chief generals. Subutai wasnt chief or main tactician of Genghis khan. Even Jebe wasnt

Genghis Khan is my favorite barbarian. He literally conquered Europe, from coast to coast, and he believed in whole measures. You were either with him or dead.

From the show "Draining the oceans" they were able to discover that the fleet that tried to invade Japan had poorly built ships which couldn't stand the rough storms of the deep sea.

@The Imperishable Star hey comrade, i don't know what is your problem but hope you're understand that history is such a complicated thing. maybe you're seeing Chinggis Khan as a cruel dictator, heartless murderer or i don't know... but i see him as a Thanos or Uchiha Madara from Naruto.. true peace does costs blood, doesn't it?
You have every reason to be proud! To some he was a barbarian and to others a great unifier...what ever you believe, his name will live on..no one conquers peacefully..not even God!
You wonder if the world might have been different without losing a hundred thousand warriors or even double that on the way to Japan. Who knows how powerful they would've become after conquering the entire Asian region and even slightly beyond that. As every area they conquered, that countries people were forced to join their army.
at that time, China was divided under Western Xia, Western Liao, Jurchen Jin, Dali kingdom and Song Dynasty, when Mongol fought Song Dynasty, also they also have the help of other Turks, Muslims or Northern Chinese, so it is not simply 1 millions against 50 millions, and the Great Khan Mongke was even killed by the Song soldiers during the siege of Diaoyu city,
@@Emilechen At this time were Mongols too divided. There were many small parts of nomads and Mongols didn´t get help of anyone. Munkh Khan killed not by Song soldiers. His bruder Khubilai Khan killed him.
@@chekoenkh8549 at that time China was even more divided: Wester Liao, Western Xia, Jim Dynasty, Song Dynasty, Dali Kingdom, many people are impressed by the conquest of Mongol Empire in 13th century, building the biggest empire, but in my opinion, this kind of conquest doesn't last, the best for the Mongols is to do what Dzungur Mongol Empires does: unify Mongolia, Xinjiang and Tibet first, than spends several centries to consolidate and create a commun identity, based on Tibetan Buddhism, if the Mongols manage to do that, todya Mongolia will still be a powerhouse in Asia, just like Japan before WWII, if Japan has stopped when Japan has already Korea, Taiwan, Manchuria and Pacific islands, then spedn decades to absorb them, Japan will become number 1 in Asia, when China remained divided, ita coastlines dominated by Japan, Mongols and Japanese invaded a divided China, destroyed the different kingdoms and factions in China, but it is not a wise strategy, since they need to face a emerging unified Ming Dynasty and Communist China later, so the Anglo-Saxon's strategy of dividing Europe, but not conquering it, seems to be more realistic,
Plz make more socio-political documentaries on other steppe nations,like xiongnu,Huns,Scythians,Gökturks and also on yuezhi tribes (Kushan),and wusun's also .
I just want to add that defining Genghis Khan into "Mongol" or Mongolian and defining Jin, Song, Tangut into Chinese deviate from the authentic history during that time. The term Mongol & Chinese did not exist during that time.
I hope you start including Hindu gods and mythology and shine a light upon it coz many people don't know about it/are ignorant towards it, but it's actually a lot fascinating and complicated but in an interesting manner.
First build ” Hunnu” Empire Moduni Shanyu at 205 year, efter manga year 1206 Chinges Khaan build ” Eh Mongol” Empire! Who is fist our Empire ( Moduni Shanyu before Chinges Khaan) ❤️
Kublai Khan was never the great Khan. In fact he was a fat lazy failure. But had a mind for technologies. He needed the help of Mongke Khan to defeat China. It was Mongke who was "great Khan". Plenty of other mistakes as well. But that was the most glaring. And it was an overall, a good accounting. Funny how the mighty Hulegu' and Batu Khans were barely mentioned. Both were the spearheads of most of their greatest expansions.
There was no Russia at the time buddy. It was Russ, it wasn't the size of Russia and it was a bunch of little kingdoms that hated each other. The Russ wouldn't lift a finger to help the other neighbors and one by one they felt, but even so their small little kingdoms gave the Mongols a run for their money. If Russ was united the Mongols would had probably failed.
Oh really? Then what do you make of the facts that Mongols had successfully annihilated and brought down highly civilised and military powerful Empires like Khwarazm and whole Chinese kingdoms. They weren’t just tiny little kingdoms like Rus and Ukrainian principles. Yet these countries fielded way more soldiers than entire Mongol population in that time and age.
Imagine living in peace and prosperity never knowing war or hardship surrounded by your loved ones and then suddenly there's screaming and shouting and sounds of fighting and people running in panic and everything you ever knew about life turns out to be wrong.

Made me a khan"
- Famous quotes of Chinggis khan
I am the punishment of god, if you didn’t create such great sins god wouldn’t of had sent a punishment like me upon you

"I am the scourge of tenger(sky,heaven), if you hadnt commit such sins god wouldnt have sent a punishment like me upon you" Sounds like Christian religion to me.

TBH never knew they were that savage to takeover lands. I can’t imagine being the invaded, sleeping and suddenly a bunch of strong men claim the place I earned.
We can not imagine it, different times!
Happened fairly recently actually.
Don't think they were more savage than the Roman legions ; the Greek phalanx; the Persian immortals or the Arab raiders........
The mongols couldnt advance into europe as they quickly realized european castles will destroy them. That and the european landmass are mostly forested which is unsuitable for mongol cavalry.
@@ibashcommunists6847 well they encountered the same environment in india and after a few setbacks they ( chagatai; timur ; mughals .... ) managed to take over the territory.
The Nirun Mongols included the following tribes: Adarkin, Artakan, Arulat, Baarin, Barlas, Borjigin, Bugunut, Budaat, Belgunut, Besut, Geniges, Jadaran, Joureid, Dzhurkin, Duglat, Durben, Kilingut (incl. Kilingut-Tarkhan) , Kingiyat, Kiyat, Kunjin, Mangut, Nir-khoyin, Noyokhon, Oronar, Saljiut, Sijiut, Sukan, Sukanut, Sunit, Tayzhiut, Ujiet, Urut, Khabturkhas, Khatagin, Khonkhotan, Chanshiut, Chonos, Yasar, etc. Darlekin group Mongols consisted of such tribes as Arulat[19], Bayat, Bugunut[20], Belgunut[20], Gorlos, Jalair, Ikires, Ildurkin, Kilingut[19] (including Kilingut-Tarkhan[19]), Kingit (Geniges)[ 19], kunjin[19], kunkliut, nokhos, olkhonut, suldus, uryankhai, uryaut (oronar)[19], ushin, haranut, khongirat, khonkhotan[19], eljigin, etc.
The empire of Genghis Khan included not only the indigenous Mongols, but also all the other Mongol-speaking tribes of the region: Bargut, Bekrin, Bulagachin, Dzhungurkin, Karakitai, Kereit, Kurlaut, Kem-Kemdzhiut, Kushtemi, Keremuchin, Merkit, Naiman, Oirat, Ongut, Sakait, Tangut, Tatars, Telengut, Tulas, Uymakut, Urasut, Khoyin-Irgen, Khoyin-Urianka, Khori-Tumat (Khori and Tumat), etc.
Jalair mongols are the ancestors of the khalkha mongols, the tribal majority of today’s mongolia.
As a mongolian this content made me proud of my ancestors. Thanks man
@The Imperishable Star hey comrade, i don't know what is your problem but hope you're understand that history is such a complicated thing. maybe you're seeing Chinggis Khan as a cruel dictator, heartless murderer or i don't know... but i see him as a Thanos or Uchiha Madara from Naruto.. true peace does costs blood, doesn't it?
@@Tdrnker he was a beast not man
@@Tdrnker where are you now?
You have every reason to be proud! To some he was a barbarian and to others a great unifier...what ever you believe, his name will live on..no one conquers peacefully..not even God!
@@snokelpops I agree🙌🏻
You wonder if the world might have been different without losing a hundred thousand warriors or even double that on the way to Japan. Who knows how powerful they would've become after conquering the entire Asian region and even slightly beyond that. As every area they conquered, that countries people were forced to join their army.
at the time was Mongols under 1 Million. But China war very strong and over 50 Millions. But Chingis Khan had good IQ.
at that time, China was divided under Western Xia, Western Liao, Jurchen Jin, Dali kingdom and Song Dynasty,
when Mongol fought Song Dynasty, also they also have the help of other Turks, Muslims or Northern Chinese, so it is not simply 1 millions against 50 millions,
and the Great Khan Mongke was even killed by the Song soldiers during the siege of Diaoyu city,
@@Emilechen At this time were Mongols too divided. There were many small parts of nomads and Mongols didn´t get help of anyone. Munkh Khan killed not by Song soldiers. His bruder Khubilai Khan killed him.
@@chekoenkh8549 at that time China was even more divided:
Wester Liao, Western Xia, Jim Dynasty, Song Dynasty, Dali Kingdom,
many people are impressed by the conquest of Mongol Empire in 13th century, building the biggest empire,
but in my opinion, this kind of conquest doesn't last, the best for the Mongols is to do what Dzungur Mongol Empires does:
unify Mongolia, Xinjiang and Tibet first, than spends several centries to consolidate and create a commun identity, based on Tibetan Buddhism,
if the Mongols manage to do that, todya Mongolia will still be a powerhouse in Asia,
just like Japan before WWII, if Japan has stopped when Japan has already Korea, Taiwan, Manchuria and Pacific islands, then spedn decades to absorb them, Japan will become number 1 in Asia,
when China remained divided, ita coastlines dominated by Japan,
Mongols and Japanese invaded a divided China, destroyed the different kingdoms and factions in China, but it is not a wise strategy, since they need to face a emerging unified Ming Dynasty and Communist China later,
so the Anglo-Saxon's strategy of dividing Europe, but not conquering it, seems to be more realistic,
@@Emilechen wrong its even below 1million , they dont let the civilian fight lol ! the mongols always mobilized an army of 40,000 at his best lol.
Excellent presentation 👏👏👏👏
The mongol reign fascinates me. Thank you for the video.
This would make an amazing tv series
This channel taught me more than my history teacher ❤
Plz make a video on the ottomans :))))
nice summary,
Plz make more socio-political documentaries on other steppe nations,like xiongnu,Huns,Scythians,Gökturks and also on yuezhi tribes (Kushan),and wusun's also .
Epic Documentary. The mongols were, evidently, fierce nomads. Some say The Great Wall of China was built to ward them off
@@Endgame707 I didn't know that. Thanks 🙏
@@hoseakiruii Great Wall was not build by China, if you look at the wall, all santinels faces China. Arrows spaces faces China, and so on.
Again another great video!
It’s just wild how similar nomadic mongolians were to native Americans
That's their ancestors.
Same root in Siberia. Huns had close relations with native americans(Dené-Eniseian)
The narrator almost sounds like George Takai. Great narration!
Good video 😊
Amazing artwork !
That prob proves the quote
"Hard times create good men, good men create good Times, good times create weak men and weak men." create Bad times
Nice one but the video was too brief as there were so many events that led to the downfall of this empire
The earliest descriotion..tall bushy red hair ND beard ..green eyes .. very striking unique look.
@@Endgame707 must have really wanted those beaches and balmy weather..too bad.
This was the real Genghis Khan, and he was Christian.
I suddenly want to play aoe2 again. This is where my fascination with the mongols began.
the fact he went from an exiled boy to world conqueror is truly inspiring
I just want to add that defining Genghis Khan into "Mongol" or Mongolian and defining Jin, Song, Tangut into Chinese deviate from the authentic history during that time. The term Mongol & Chinese did not exist during that time.
I hope you start including Hindu gods and mythology and shine a light upon it coz many people don't know about it/are ignorant towards it, but it's actually a lot fascinating and complicated but in an interesting manner.
Kinda like Kama ?
Genghis khan not only a great warrior but also a great statesman.
The Mongolians ability to move as a unit played a major roll in their abilities.
First build ” Hunnu” Empire Moduni Shanyu at 205 year, efter manga year 1206 Chinges Khaan build ” Eh Mongol” Empire! Who is fist our Empire ( Moduni Shanyu before Chinges Khaan) ❤️
and Attila the Hun between them both
Crazy how he carried the game so hard and his teammates couldn't drop any elims
The greatest advantage the Mongols had was the fact they were nomadic.
Strange how we've never heard the White Romans referred to as a terror.... I guess they were just angels uniting the world 😒
The age of nomads is long gone. Mongol populations are merely 4 million people in outer mongolia
@Qazaq_Qyiat Manchus would be furious at your comment. Please stop speaking for people who you don't represent
Kublai Khan was never the great Khan. In fact he was a fat lazy failure. But had a mind for technologies. He needed the help of Mongke Khan to defeat China. It was Mongke who was "great Khan". Plenty of other mistakes as well. But that was the most glaring. And it was an overall, a good accounting. Funny how the mighty Hulegu' and Batu Khans were barely mentioned. Both were the spearheads of most of their greatest expansions.
The Mongol nomadic way of life is almost identical to the Lakota plains tribes. Except we hunted buffalo and lived in hide tipi’s.

Wow, I can see this was the inspiration for the Dothraki in Game of Thrones

You didn't mention mangoles are stopped by Mamaalik in Egypt, a famous battle called Aynu-Jalut.🤔🤔🤔that was a turning point of TATAR.
He focused on their wins & not on their Demise 🤔.
In 1260 Egypt strong Mamluks defeated and destroyed the Mongols army in Palestine.
11:11 United states of Asia (USA) 😂
An ancient history documentary shows that back then, 'going viral' was usually bad news for a city.
The US military doctrine today is ‘we do deserts, we don’t do mountains’ but the Mongols still conquered Persia/Iran
The Turks were also very important to the Mongol Empire and its army
Turks and mongols share the common ancestors. Mongols are not turks
Could putin be the decendent of mongols, which would explain his character and personality.
Thsi will be so so so awesome
There was no Russia at the time buddy. It was Russ, it wasn't the size of Russia and it was a bunch of little kingdoms that hated each other. The Russ wouldn't lift a finger to help the other neighbors and one by one they felt, but even so their small little kingdoms gave the Mongols a run for their money. If Russ was united the Mongols would had probably failed.
Oh really? Then what do you make of the facts that Mongols had successfully annihilated and brought down highly civilised and military powerful Empires like Khwarazm and whole Chinese kingdoms. They weren’t just tiny little kingdoms like Rus and Ukrainian principles. Yet these countries fielded way more soldiers than entire Mongol population in that time and age.
The Mongols were nomadic barbarians , great achievements what they they did against more accomplished countries.

@@Toroonoo1 the Rus and Ukrainian principalities, in fact, when united, are much stronger than other civilizations.

Imagine living in peace and prosperity never knowing war or hardship surrounded by your loved ones and then suddenly there's screaming and shouting and sounds of fighting and people running in panic and everything you ever knew about life turns out to be wrong.
@@Endgame707 It was probably too warm for them.
This here deals only with their victories n brutality...they also suffered defeats..in Africa for example. All this should also be mentioned.
