His successors would go on to carry on that legacy which encouraged militarism in the mongols.

That fact that the early Mongolians were so successful is because they appointed leaders based on talent, rather than birthright. Everyone they faced in battle did NOT do this.......and as a result most armies were full of stuffy lords mostly looking out for their own interests or slaves and peasants who didn't want to be there in the first place. It's always easy to defeat forces that hate each other as much as they hate you, especially when you're united. Add to that political corruption from within the empires you're at war with, and well they do half the work for you. Later on, once the Mongolians start to assimilate with the ways of their enemies, they too fall apart. Fighting each other for control of the empire, stabbing each other in the back. They became what they were fighting, and so they eventually faded away as well. This is why most empires and nations don't last very long. Power always corrupts and the intensity only increases over time. Until your own people don't care enough and welcome invaders in the door.

I appreciate this video detailing the military brilliance of Genghis Khan and the Mongol empire. This really opens up your mind from the western POV's of the mongols seeing them as only blood thirsty barbarians. The Romans with its historical greatness and some overglorified commanders never achieved what the Mongols achieved. The Roman empire who existed for 400 years never achieved what the Mongols did in 25 years.

@historyrepeat402

Ай бұрын

That is a bit of an over exaggeration, the Roman empire became the example for all that followed it in the region and for 1000 years people claimed the title as the most preeminent. It took 2 khans for the empire to split and the most popular khan other than Ghengis would rather have been Chinese…without Ghengis the mongol empire would have been another footnote for a Chinese or Persian empire as a barbarian annoyance.

Or are you just simply believing that any barbaric horde from Asia has to be Mongol?

Subutai was the greatest general who ever lived. He created military fronts by coordinating multiple armies at once as they invaded foreign lands. This was at a time when armies fought individually and established frontiers with spaced out fortifications (or natural barriers). They couldn't fathom a wave of highly mobile attackers that came from everywhere, and so Subutai succeeded in overwhelming his enemies. This feat would not again be duplicated until the 20th century with German tank warfare. Subutai was hundreds of years ahead of his time

Even the ancient emperor (Shang) Tang and (Zhou) Wu took (China) by usurping but consolidate (the realm) by conforming (the rule of order, the will of people), it was the use of both martial prowess and literal wisdom that ensures the longevity of the realm!"

Subutai has to be one of the greatest war generals In history of mankind’s. Truly a remarkable individual. He Never lost in a life full of battles. He also had an ability to win battles he had no business of winning. The Mongol Empire disintegrated after Genghis bc of internal conflicts. Nothing else could have done them in. Even so they have forever changed the course of the world history. I can not imagine had Genghis lived another 15 years. The Mongol Empire has to be the most underrated Empire in history in all aspects of ground breaking changes from warfare to economic concepts.

The so-called territory is supposed to be brainwashed every day. Make something up. Enough is enough!! Number one: 46 years of fighting. Tiemuzhen died in the Western Xia Dynasty. Mengge Khan first Sichuan fishing city. Kublai Khan died in the Han Dynasty. Under the control of various uprisings for less than 40 years (86 years in total), it was swept by the Great Han and Ming Empires to the Beiga Lake in 2.3 months and recovered the Anbei Capital garrison (north of the desert) during the Han and Tang Empires. It's not a dynasty. This real history is: the Han Dynasty Han Wudi's Wei Qing Huo Qubing Han Dynasty Tang Taizong's Li Jing Da Han Dynasty Ming Dynasty Taizu's Chang Yuchun Xu Da all swept across North Asia
