Great video as always, but there is a small mistake which most history KZreadrs and even some academicians seem to make: Seljuks weren't an Oghuz tribe, they were a dynasty. The tribe Seljuk family belonged to is named "Qiniq Tribe" (Kınık Boyu in Istanbul Turkish and Qınıq Boyu in Azerbaijani Turkish) just like how Ottoman dynasty belonged to the Qayi (Kayı) Tribe. Many people call the subjects of those dynasties "Ottoman Turks" or "Seljuk Turks", but this is as if someone called Austrians "Habsburg Germans" or Prussians "Hohenzollern Germans".

Debating that if the Seljuks were Turkmen, Turkish or Azerbaijani is the same as debating that if the Kievan Rus' were Russian, Ukrainian or Belarussian. Seljuks were Oghuz. And Oghuz people later seperated into Turkish, Azerbaijani, Turkmen, etc. The important thing is that Seljuks are an indispensable part of the national identities of all three of these modern nations. They are Turkish, Azerbaijani and Turkmen at the same time. And I included the Azerbaijani and Istanbul Turkish versions of the words for extra info.

The historical meaning of Turkmen isn't the same as modern Turkmen. Turkmen in historical terms was mostly used for Turks who became Muslims and abandoned the traditional faith of Tengri. The Seljuqs were the quasi founders of Turkmens, since they started the mass conversion of Turks to Islam. This often came together with intermixing with Iranic muslims, thus Turkmens becoming more Persian/West Asian looking than the average Tengrist Asian Turk. But still East Asian looking, "resembling still a Turk" = "Türkmen", "like a Turk". These Turkmens spawned the Ottomans -> Turkey and modern Turkmenistan, also a few dynasties in Iran etc.

You mad lads actually did it. The Seljuks are my favorite topic of the Medieval Age. Their descentralization of the Great Seljuk Empire (1092 - 1100's) following Malik Shah's death is one of the most fascinating periods in history. The rise of the Atabegs and Emirs all ruling quasi-independent realms under the nominal suzerainty of the Great Seljuk Sultan (Rûm being the exception given they created their own Sultanate) quickly destabilize the whole Near East until the Rise of Saladin and the Ayyubid Sultanate. Giving rise to characters like Tutush, Kerbogah, Tzachas, Il-Ghazi, Suleiman of Rûm, Imad ad-Din Zengi and his famous son Nûr ad-Dín Zengi among many others. Like the northen realms of the Danishmends, Saltukids and Mengjuks etc. Also the Expansions of Manuil Komnenos during the 1160's and 1170's cemented the end of formal rule of the Great Seljuks in upper Syria and Eastern Cilicia. Great video guys! You covered everything in a well summarized manner and yet so well done.

@علي ياسر Not in the case of Turkic Dynasties. Ottoman Sultans often married their own "slaves" (not the most accurate term for it but the nearest). Ottoman princesses were married off to Pashas mostly (who themselves were mostly children of regular peasants in the Balkans, which were taken away from their families and got educated in the Palace school "Enderun", because potential of intelligence was seen in them) to secure their loyalty to the ruling Imperial dynasty. The Ottomans didn't imply the concept of Feudalism, hence there was no "nobility" in the court. Most Anatolian governours were the descendents of the former ruling dynasties of the local Beyliks who ruled there before the Ottomans came (Karamans, Germiyans, etc.). So no, Turkic dynasties don't marry with nobles since there is no nobility in Turkic society, especially in nomadic Turkic cultures.

@@hockeyh There is no ethicity called "Ottoman Turks". There is the royal family of the House of Osman -> Ottoman dynasty, which ruled in the course of history over 72 different ethnicities. The Ottoman family was ethnically and linguistically Oghuz Turkic. The Oghuz Turks are one branch of 4 different main Turkic branches (Kipchak, Karluk and Sibir are the other branches). They were divided in 24 different tribes. The Seldjuk dynasty was part of the Kınık tribe. The Ottoman dynasty was (according to later Ottoman historians such as Ashikpashazade) part of the Kayı tribe. The Ottomans ruled over many Oghuzic tribes, but not all. Such as the Seldjuks ruled over most of the Oghuz tribes but again, not all. The Ottoman Empire is the successor state of the Seldjuk Empire. But both dynasties are not related by blood. And they also don't originate from the same tribe. Both are Oghuz Turkic families, and that's all they share with eachother.

Especially that ethnolinguistic/ethnocultural awareness(Some form of supra-tribalism) was prominent amongst steppe people. IE: 1- The Ashina clan, who established the Göktürk khanate used the supraethnonym "Turk", for every single Oghuz and Tatar group(excluding any non-Turkic speaking nomads, exclusively for Turkic speaking nomads back then), obviously on linguistic and cultural basis in 7th century CE. 2- Cumans refused the letters of Osman and Orhan Bey's(second ruler of the Ottomans) for alliance who stated that "both of Ottomans and them were Turks who should join forces against Byzantines"; Most striking was Cumans replying back with a single liner letter: "You are not Turks, but Byzantine wannabees who don't seek brothers but dogs", referring to Ottoman rulers' Byzantine matrilineal descent(this is even nowadays debated tho). Sorta quite "racist" for 13th century standards, even for modern standards. 3-Tamerlane belittled Bayezid citing that "he did not resembled his ancestors, and betrayed their glorious ancestors by aspiring to be Persians and Byzantines" in his letters. However, his first letters were written in Persian purple prose. So the Ottomans belittled him back citing that at least they "wrote in the language of Turks but Tamerlane, in Persian".

Suljuk Vizier Nizam'-ul-Mulk's "educational reforms" played a huge part in he extinguishing of science and rationality in the Muslim world. As you can see, this was a time when Shia/Sunni schism and fervor was at its peak. Creating an environment where everyone was inquisitioning any mindset that didn't immediately comply unconditionally. And as you can see, not much science came out of the Muslim world after this period. Before Nizam's reforms, education was kind of a personal thing. Or not centrally controlled. People learned things they felt mattered. And education was funded by merchant and Bourgeoisie After Nizam's reforms, we see the emergence of the Mullah/Molvi/Ulema class. Education, curriculum and degrees became strictly controlled. And state became the primary sponsor of education. And because of the extractive Iqta system, merchants/bourgeoisie became slowly less and less influential.

The Seljuk suffered their own version of Manzikert. This was the battle of Qatwan against the Kara Khitai. After this battle they descended into a slow decline due to infighting. History doesn't repeat but it sure rhymes.

Thank you so much for this video, my favourite Series ottoman, seljuk and first crusade

14:12 At this point our story sinks up really badly. But the most acceptable scenario is the death of Süleyman Şah against Artuk Bey and Tutuş. His sons, Kılıçarslan (in the next episode) and Kulan Arslan taken prisoners and was sent to capital Rey and stood there until the death of Melikşah. Some sources claim that they have poisoned Melikşah, while modern historians say Melikşah got poisoned from his wife because she was afraid of Kılıçarslan taking the entire Selçuk Empire. Kılıçarslan was coming from Arslan Yabgu>Kutalmış>Süleymanşah and he was the rightful heir to the throne and Tuğrul Bey was going to give the throne back to Kutalmış if Alparslan wouldn't coup and take it for himself. So wife of Melikşah poisoned him and said that Kılıçarslan did it so her 5 year old son Muhammed Tapar can get the throne. And this resulted the collapse of the empire. Kılıçarslan fled the city with his brother and came back to anatolia, where the Crusades was started immediately after. It is worth to mention that he was very young while all these happening (Around 16 years old). Despite his young age, he was cunning like his father and although he couldn't repel, he starved out the crowded Crusaders led by Bohemond. He asked for help from Berkyaruk(son of Melikşah) but Berkyaruk laughed "No nation can do this to the Turks" and refused. Kılıçarslan destroyed the entire Crusader army sent in 1101. His life must be told in a 10 season long TV Series.

As always a great and informative video. Keep it up guys and girls

I love your series but your sponsor this week is a scam. The Scottish courts ruled, in direct response to this company, that buying a 1 by 1 square foot of land doesn’t make you a lord. Normally I wouldn’t say anything but a lot of people are falling for this and it sucks

Additionally the land register is not allowed to register such novelty plots and therefore, under Scots law, you cannot legally gain ownership of that land.

❤ nice video

wrong banners, two-headed eagles were not the banners of Empire, it only Paleologis dynasty banner. Komnins used only byzantium cross

Sources are conflicted on the death of alp arsalan, malik shah and nizam ol-mulk. There are sources that claim all three were slain by assassiyun (assassins), and the are sources that claim alp arsalan was killed by an enemy noble, malik shah died in a hunting accident, and nizam ol-mulk was killed by angry mob. From the books written in the time, it seems like all three were killed by assassins and the other stories were government propaganda to stop people from thinking assassins were powerful enough to do such deeds and therefore stop people from joining them

Yeah it is not convenient for people to know that there is an organisation with men so talanted it could shake an empire like that.

Can you do also the decline of the Seljuks and the birth of Ottoman Empire

I Like What I See And Read On This Channel

Think you guys have a typo at 10:45 Should probably say "but romanos's slow to respond and divided empire was no match for alp aslan's expert leadership of alps aslan and nomadic tactics" Cause it sounds like you're literally saying that "Alp aslan's expert leadership and nomadic tactics were no match for the slow to respond and divided empire." Meaning that alp aslan was no match for romanos.

I've read somewhere that the vizier of the Seljuks Nizamulmulk and the founder of the assassin order Hassan Sabbah are childhood friends. They even studied in the same school but their careers went on very different ways I suppose :)

I’ve heard of this too but I believe that this was refuted by some people due to the high difference in age.

I love the content, as always, but I'd like to see more content on ancient, pre Christian and pre Islamic Nubia.

Just realized that weird noise in your videos is crickets in the night. Used to wonder if something was wrong with my headphones.

Nice video, however, one correction, Liparit IV was not the Georgian prince, he was not from the royal family, just a typical duke of the southern Georgian region, and in reality, his family was widely considered in history as traitors and separatists that's why soon after was wiped out by The Georgian Kingdom.

Any plans to do a 5th crusade video?

At the beginning of 12th century during the reign Georgian King David the IV he will consolidate Georgia and launch mini-reconquista in entire caucasus region, during that period David and his victories further weakened Seljuk Empire so I really hope that u'll at least mention it, been waiting for that for years.

I love this channel and all these videos. Having said that, watching things unfold the way they did and fail due to spectacularly bad decision making always makes me cringe.
