@@DaMartialAthlete yes some certain military advantages is needed. Military strategy, intelligence, the quality of the army is more better than quantity. For example, 1,000 elite veterans can defend a well fortified fort or castle against a big army for a long time if they had enough supplies and weaponry. On the field of battle, it mostly depends on the commander and generals when deploying troops and formations. Since on open field one must know that quality and quantity can change the battle just as much as strategies can. Quality troops (elites, veterans, etc) can be of the vanguard or reserved force, or some generals prefer some hand picked men (elite) to be flanking. Either way the army's core relies on combat experience, supplies of food and equipments. I may be wrong, but I been playing too much games and watching too much movies.

Perhaps the most admirable trait of the Mongol Army is their constant willingness to adapt new tactics and technology to compensate for the limitations of their style of steppe warfare. They were so adaptive that they usually "go native" with the peoples they conquer.

Explains how Chinggis Khan was able to run such a massive empire. He really understood how to establish stability through discipline and a sense of unity.

It is due to modern mongolian dropping g between vowels in favor of double vowels and lack of distinction between (o,u), (ts, ch) and (ö, ü).

Kings and Generals, great video!💯🙏👐

I always like the video on this channel before watching it

I was getting ready to make a sarcastic comment like, "What, you mean they weren't just a disorganized swarm of slavering maniacs who somehow just happened to conquer half the world?" but Kings and Generals literally took on that point at the very start of the video. Well, good on them, I suppose.

Thank you “king and generals” good

THANK YOU FOR THIS GREAT WORK

this is among the best top documentary about mongol's empire. Well done.

Subutai was a god of war.

Genghis Khan was able to create such a vast empire using mainly the bow and horse, and of course tactics. Another great video kings thanks

Really insightful video I did not know a lot of the information but now I do thank you

Great episode! Thanks

If Genghis hadn't split his empire among his sons, the Mongol could have survived a lot longer.

I think that his oldest son Zuch build new country before die Chingis khan. Because Zuch had problem with his brothers. Chingis khan didn't want civil war. However Chingis khaan split his empire.

He didn't thought. The splitting of the empire begann after death of Ogedai and failed succession. He was secceeded by Guyuk but Ogedai namd other successor, his favorite grandson. And between succession of Guyuk and death of Ogedai lasted 5 years if I'm not mistaken.

@@Singgen It is only my opinion. It is true Guyg and Khubilai began splitting. But background splitting began before Chingis khaan die. Lot of people didn't know Zuch wasn't Chingis's son. Zuch began splitting. I found some news about Zuch's country.

He had no choice. Jochi the first born was intelligent but was hated by his second brother, was constantly attacked for being allegedly illigitimate and was unpopular to lead the empire. Chagatai was brash, drunkard and Genghis knew if he gave all his power to Jochi then Chagatai was going to start a civil war. Tolui was the most similar to Genghis, was the most amicable to his kin but he didn't have the traits needed to govern a transitioning empire in terms of administration not wonton destruction. So the third brother Ogedei was to be supported by his brothers. But Jochi would never get over being passed over because of the constant questioning of his lineage and Chagatai was angry that because of his feud with Jochi that he was not considered the firstborn. So all in all, it seemed destined for the empire to split.

@@qus.9617 The talk about Jochi is not official. Only his two younger brothers probably discriminated against him from time to time. I think Chingis khaan and Tului weren't dicrimated Zuch. Zuch began splitting. If Zuch didn't split his country Tsagaadai would not angry. I think Ogedei didn't hostility with Zuchi, buh he supports Tsagaadai. Zuch's son Bat is intelligent, because he reunited to main country. But Guyg ended peace.

Was expecting of the The HU music to be used.

Amazing Information & easy to Understand. Hard work thanks

Thank you , K & G.

I've done some research of the Mongolian invasion of Eastern Europe for a story I'm writing for fun, and it's all so interesting to me.

It's interesting to note how similar the Mongols style of discipline was to that of the later Albrecht von Wallenstein's and Gustavus Adolphus' . Brutal punishment for cowardice and disobedience, and excellent rewards for bravery and order. The Carrot and the Stick if you will.
