The warriors in which the Mongols suffered the most severe defeats were the Mamluks. The Mongols thought they were relieved after defeating Jalal al-Din Mangburni after a tough struggle. But his predecessor Qutuz and Qutuz's friends (Baibars, Qalavun) completed the work that Al-Din had left unfinished. At the same time the Khiljis, who supported Jalal al-Din in the Battle of Parwan, defeated the Mongols. The Mongols won against Jalal al-Din but it was their defeat.

Probably not much apart from further devastation and shallow vassal-making. In the Eastern part, several Rus principalities were destroyed and those who surrendered were made vassals. And, some years later, those who survived just substituted the ones who were destroyed and then thrived. Maybe Hungary would've been destroyed and later on Bohemia taken its place. Maybe the Teutonic Order would have survived further on at the expense of Lithuania. Or maybe a commited alliance could've had resisted them and driven the Mongols off. Who knows. But Europe was quite different from Persia, the Kwarazmian Empire or the immense and endless stepe. Conquering Europe means taking down a thousand castles and fortified cities while being 7000km away from your mainland. And even if they managed to "conquer" a good chunk of it, you just can't maintain such an empire united while having your capital at Karakorum. Most of the Mongol Khans were a bunch of obese drunkards, so Ogedei was going to die sooner or later. And his empire, broken as it was.

Before the rise of Genghis Khan Mongolic was spreading at westward and absorbing Turkic speakers (Janhunen, 2008). During the Mongol expansion, Turkic speakers whose tribes and states had been incorporated into the Mongol empire were so much more numerous than Mongols that, although Mongolian was the language of command, it was Turkic rather than Mongolic speech that was chiefly spread across Central Asia and the central and western steppe.

Zafer Khan was a Punjabi and even this name was given to him by the Turk king. He was the reason for the defeat of Mongols not the Coward Khiljis Zaheeruddin Barani, a 14th-century historian from India, mentions a Zafer / Zaheer Khan who was a commander of Sultan Alauddin Khilji's army and fought against the Mongols during their invasion of India.

Sir, it is a very good job

Actually it wasn't Alauddin Khalji who defeated the Mongols...it was his general Zafar Khan, who went against the royal orders and attacked the chagatai Mongols in the battle of Kili...and caused them so much damage that they retreated within a few days and didn't return until again for the next few years..as a result of his disobedience, he wasn't praised for his bravery and his name was struck off from the chronicles of Alauddin...The Mongols were so terrorised by Zafar Khan , that whenever their horses refused to drink water, the Mongols would ask them if they had seen Zafar Khan...he is the unsung hero behind the victory of Delhi sultanate...

Lastly a good video on the topic

Isn’t the the first time India fought off a nomadic invasion, centuries before this, during the days of Rome, Alchon Huns invaded northern India which at the time was ruled by the Gupta empire though it was in a sate of decline as rebellion and the breakaway of now independent vassals. The huns devastated the land, destroying many cities and ancient Buddha shrines, the Gupta answered the call for help and with their former vassals now allies, drove out the huns. This was sadly the final epic of the Gupta empire as they would later fall to outside threats and internal struggle.

Sultan's Army cantonment and later personal palace was named "Dar ul Khilafat" but was popularly called Siri. Derived from word "Sir" meaning head, it was famous for having mongol skulls in the foundation of the walls. Some of the walls and still remain to this day and the area is still called Siri.

The Commander that fought Mongols wasnt a Khilji but a Punjabi commander called Zafer Khan from the city of Multan, Punjab. The army was also mainly Punjabi and Turk.

The video should be titled "how outsiders defended India from Mongols because the native inhabitants didn't have the balls to do so" according to hindu nationalists of nowadays.

One of the reason of not attacking India at that time was that he did not have enough force to meet a fresh and powerful army of Sultan of Dehli. Gengez Khan fought the last brutal battle with joint forces of Khawarzim shah and Afghan tribes which destroyed a large part of mongol army and suffering a crushing defeat. Later Gengez Khan attacked Khwarzim Shah and destroyed his forces at the cost of heavy losses which make them unable to continue his campaigns in India. This fact was proven later when mongols attacked India and suffered crushing defeats in the hands of Alauddin Khilji Sultan of Dehli. In fact mongol emire disintegrated as soon as they started fighting with Mamluks of Egypt and Mamluks of Dehli who inflicted crushing defeats on mongols resulting in disintegration of mongol empire. Gengez refrained from attacking India which was right decion otherwise they would have lost their power very early.

Some of Reaaon would be definitely the climatic Conditions differences , death of Prince and generals , limited Food supplies . .. Use of Elephants , horses even Manpower ( number of Arm forces)

Ah, another great video from K&Gs, thank you 🙏 🤌☕️🥰

The name Mongol appeared first in the eighth-century Chinese records of the Tang dynasty, but only resurfaced in the eleventh century during the rule of the Khitan. At first, it was applied to some small and insignificant nomadic tribes in the area of the Onon River. In the thirteenth century, however, the name Mongol grew into an umbrella term for a large group of Mongolic and Turkic tribes united under the rule of Genghis Khan. It is not clear what the Mongols called themselves in their own languages. In fact, the specific origin of the Mongolic languages is unclear. Some linguists have proposed a link to languages like Tungusic and Turkic, which are often included alongside Mongolic in a hypothetical language group called “Altaic languages”, but the evidence for this is rather weak.

Evidence for calling medieval mongols as turkic people a lot. People just sleep on some nations and don't include Golden Horde, Moghulistan and Ilkhanate when learning so called Mongols history. All they study is Khublai dinasty and that's it. No one can even properly count and pronounce tribes of medieval mongols. But if they start learning those tribes they immediately come across Kazakhs, because unlike others turkic nations kazakhs still keep a genealogy traceability.

it's also kinda strange when even this bloger historian didn't mention that most of the Khublai army were Kipchaks and Kanglys tribes from cetnral asia. But him calling them even more mongols than Golden Horde people, despite the fact that most of the so-called mongols settled in Golden Horde.

But there was so much effort and war from Northern Kings as I now see that prevented Mongol ruin of India.

Read your own sentences, "4 nation" .. Turk is not a nation but a race. Delhi sultanates ruled Delhi modern day India. So it's India that defeated them. In the 1965 war with Pakistan, President and head of the armed forces of India was Pashton. By that logic Pashtun has defeated Pakistan or India? Similarly the head of the armed forces in 1971 was a Persian. Try to learn the basics between race, and nation.
