@Dark Fire he had religion, just like most Mongols then he believed in the spirits of the mountain, trees and animals etc. They had Shamans who would bang drums to summon the spirits for special events and Genghis used to go to his special place in the mountains to talk with them when he was unsure what to do.

@Dark Fire of course a particular system of faith and worship. Or the belief in and worship of a superhuman controlling power, especially a personal God or God's. Which is exactly what they thought. That the spirits of nature were supernatural and so the worshiped them and had faith that they could help them. Shamanism is a religion always has been. Just because it's not the organised religion that you recognise doesn't make it any less valid. The earth, the mountains were gods or has gods living in them. It appears you don't.

@Dark Fire here the definition of Shamanism Shamanism is a religious practice that involves a practitioner who is believed to interact with a spirit world through altered states of consciousness, such as trance. The goal of this is usually to direct these spirits or spiritual energies into the physical world, for healing or another purpose. And Mongolian shamanism (Mongolian: Бөө мөргөл - Böö mörgöl), more broadly called the Mongolian folk religion,[1] or occasionally Tengerism,[2][note 2] refers to the animistic and shamanic ethnic religion that has been practiced in Mongolia and its surrounding areas (including Buryatia and Inner Mongolia) at least since the age of recorded history. In the earliest known stages it was intricately tied to all other aspects of social life and to the tribal organization of Mongolian society. Oh and Genghis was a shaman himself as well as a warrior. So very very much a religious person with a religion he practiced. He regularly asked the mountain spirits what actions he should take when he wasn't sure. Anything else?

"Tartar" was a word the Western Europeans often misapplied to [incorrectly] describe almost all the nomadic and steppe people because they couldn't tell the difference between them. This gave rise to some misconceptions in the 1700s where some Europeans thought there was a single giant Tartar empire, when in fact the territories were divided among a bunch of different nomadic or steppe kingdoms and empires that had little in common with each other. The error is especially obvious if you look at some 1600s-1700s era Europeans who thought the Manchus (a non-Turkic, non-Mongolic people) and the entire Manchu-led Qing Dynasty (of what is now China) was a part of some greater Tartar empire that stretched from Korea to Eastern Europe/Western Asia. This incorrect usage would be similar to how the ancient Greeks called every non-Greek a "barbarian" - so in this case, it would similar to if someone later mistakenly thought the "Barbarians" were all a single unified people, nation, culture, entity, etc.

​@Hernando Malinche Tatar was the name of an actual major tribal empire. The original poster was wrong. There actually was a Tatar Empire in the steppes just before Mongols showed up. Alans and Slavs knew of the Tatars from direct contact and they lived east of the Caucasus, so that's how far the Tatar empire reached westwards. That's also how the name Tatar came to Eastern Europe and later spread to all of Europe as a whole. The Eastern Alan confederacy was crushed by Jebe and Subetei, although the Alans mostly had themselves to blame for being a disorganized bunch too happy to backstab each other. They ran west to Russia and Lithuania and told the Western Alans that, hey, a bunch of Tatars just kicked our asses and they might be coming for yours next. The Western Alans were more organized and less treacherous, so they informed the Hungarians and Lithuanians what their Eastern cousins told them and allied with those states to prepare for the coming of the "Tatars". The Hungarians informed the next-door Austrians that a Tatar invasion was coming, the Austrians informed the Pope, and Louis IX (the Saint) came up with the Tartarus thing when he exhorted his mommy to help the poor fellow Christians of Hungary after hearing the Pope's plea for help. That said, the Tatar empire was not as well organized as the previous steppe empires. The Turk and Rouran Khaganates had actual administrative bureaucracy copied from China and the Uighurs actually had cities, a written language, and religious hierarchy for a while. The Tatars had none of this. All they had was size. The reason Mongols were known by the name Tatar in many places was because, even after the Mongols destroyed the core tribes of the Tatar Empire and the remaining Tatars submitted to Genghis' rule, there were always more Tatars than actual Mongols in the Mongol Empire. They were simply the biggest tribal grouping in the steppes at the time. According to the Secret History Genghis allotted half the Tatars to his brother Khazar and split the remaining half between Jochi and Tolui. So when the Jochid house invaded Europe, three quarters of the Tatars came with them (because Khazar's kids joined Batu) and formed the single biggest tribal contingent of the Mongol army in Europe. That's why their name stuck in Europe. The Tatars also formed the bulk of the "Mongol" contingent of the mostly-Chinese armies that invaded Vietnam and later Java because Khubilai inherited the entire quarter of the Tatar nation that was allotted to his father Tolui.

I really like the premise of this video! It is far too easy (and dangerous) to judge history from a modern perspective, where clearly defined nationalities and ethnicities are supposedly the norm. I think it's good to remind ourselves that 'the' mongols or 'the' naiman are a modern misnomer, resulting from the need to categorise the past in modern terms, even though talking of such hugely diverse groups of people as singularities is inherently misleading. Anywho, I really liked the video! Always looking forward to learning a little more

Not many people know but Mongolian society was very diverse. The climate and environment largely influenced their economic activities, in the steppe region Mongols were solely nomadic, close to big lakes(Baigal, Khuvsgul) they were fishermen, in the northern areas of Bargudjin and Dauria they were sedentary farmers, in forestry taiga they were hunters, in the regions rich for coal or ore they were blacksmiths. ChingisKhan himself was from half forested steppe region and during the young age with his brothers hunted for food in the forests. And latter practiced driven hunt with his soldiers for food and combat practice
