Even though my ancestors settled in a Mediterranean island for more than 200 years ago, We will never forget where we came from, which is Northeast China, and will not forget our battle-brothers, which are the other Turkic nations and Mongols.

Only recently discovered this channel but am already in love with it - watched every video at least 10 times! The dry sense of humour is just brilliant but the information within them is excellent and very easy to take in despite being so fast-paced. Outstanding stuff. If requests are somehow on the table, I would LOVE to see your take on the American Civil War. Keep up the great work!

I was shocked to see there aren’t more people supporting you on Patreon! The amount of work and research you must do for each episode is worth giving up a cup of coffee per month. I sincerely hope more people start supporting you, excellent channel!

A few additional bits of info: -While the 3 confederations discussed are the groups of the Mongolian steppe proper, in the political landscape the neighboring Turkish groups factored in heavily. When considering the regional powers by their strength, the Mongols were initially the last group you'd expect to conquer the others. -While Temujin was born the son of a noble, it didn't immediately confer upon him status of nobility. Temujin had an older, legitimate half-brother. Traditionally, Temujin would either be his brother's right-hand man, or else splinter off and have to form his own clan. Also, he would likely have married Temujin's mother. Instead Temujin murdered him. Allegedly. -Class warfare was a big selling point for the Mongol's recruitment efforts. Some steppe-nomad leaders, particularly those in the West who interacted with formal states and churches, tried to emphasize differences in heritage and lineage to better establish themselves as true, hereditary 'nobility,' comparable to what you'd find in non-nomadic, Abrahamic states. (There are two terms that are often used to describe this: 'Black Bone' and 'White Bone.' The legitimacy of the terms is disputed, however and may be a later invention.) In contrast, Temujin was a pagan hick who had supposedly had been a slave at one point. If that wasn't de-legitimizing enough, Temujin's father's clan hadn't been politically significant in the first place. There's no such thing as an insignficant Duke; but being the Baron of a scrap of wasteground, by a mosquito-filled river, populated by cattle thieves, is arguably worse than not having a title whatsoever. Therefore the Mongol selling point became meritocracy, equality (up to a point, it's complicated), and a more codified systems of spoils and rewards. (For instance, a son could inherit his father's titles in the literal sense, but didn't inherit his office or appointments.)

"Medicine back then was frankly pants." Not only is the term "pants" inherently funny to me, but the way he says it, it sounds like he's speaking from personal experience.

They said he couldn't. Temujin stepped up his game upand said "Yes, I Khan"

I really like your comedic format. It's a bit cheeky but the thud gets me every damn time.

Genghis also was very tolerant of differing religious beliefs. One of his most ingenious methods of building his empire was that he enforced diversity within his ranks: people who must rely on each other for subsistence learn to discard their prejudices.

FINALLY ! Been waiting ages for this one !

Fascinating and entertaining. Thanks you for this.

Before subduing Korea.... sort of - it kept resisting forever. Nicely put. Koreans with their mountain fortresses and buddhist temples in the mountains that were an easy supply station for any rebel made it extremely pesky to keep a firm hold on it. It was never administrated by the Mongols but at some point they finally gave in to yearly tributes.

@SeoWoojin55

Fun fact: Mongols actually did not raze any Korean cities because they respected their prowess in warfare so much. They had an armistice and became allies. The Mongols also needed the approval of the Korean emperor because of Korea’s status as the center of the “Eastern World” akin to the China’s status as center of the “Middle”. Goryeo kings married the firstborn daughters of the great Khans and Mongol kings married daughters of the Goryeo rulers. There was actually a Japanese phrase used to scare children that showed the mutual alliance the Koreans and Mongols had during the invasions of Japan. “Mokuri, Kokuri” meaning The Mongols and Koreans are coming. Another amazing thing is that Mongols respected Korea so much because they kept the Mongol invasions at bay for almost 50 years before agreeing to an armistice and a compulsatory alliance.

The story of how he rescued his kidnapped wife after abandoning her in favor of a coat definitely needed more attention in this vid.

Fantastic videos - many thanks! If you do requests, then something about Tamerlane/Timur would be great.

Is a super video I love your videos and I learn so much with your videos

"There job was to keep peace and lead the soldiers into war." Seems like an easy job with no contradictions at all.

War is Peace. Freedom is Slavery. Ignorance is Strength.

Awesome stuff, as usual. Especially the 'Barbarians go home' graffiti :)

Fascinating- thank you

That's history matters 🤦

0:35 "Can we have a temple" "You can have a hill"

I love how lightly the talk about death like say like he came down with a case of the dead’s

what is best in life?...To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women!

I laughed at Genghis running through the flowers underneath the FRIENDSHIP sign. Oh Mongols... Oh you Mongols...

i've read the book! you've managed to summarize what took me weeks to comprehend to 10 min.

Finally someone who actually makes videos in 10 minutes and doesn’t clickbait

Ghengis: *shows up in the Middle East* The Islamic golden age: why do I hear boss music?

Silk road: *exists* Bubonic Plaque: *travels* People: “It’s Pretty Great!”

I'm all caught up now, having watched and "liked" every video.

Great content!

Great video. I wish you have mentioned Alexander Nevsky's standoff and John Wayne playing Genghis Khan in a movie.

So where will you conquer? Mongols: Yes

Great stuff!

#20 so happy this is finally here

Would love a video that is only how the Mongolian empire dissolved!

2:53 I legit thought he just had tiny legs for a second

Fascinating story!

I’m part Lithuanian, and hence don’t find this little episode in history all that appetizing. Perhaps I’ll be back to watch though.🫣

I knew Kublai was going to win because he was in Civ haha. Also, from what I've read, so many people died to Genghis that over the following years, depopulated areas that had had a large lumber industry had their forests grow back which slightly lowered the global temperature. Just a tad. But pretty impressive that one dude did that.

Question: when one person holds a sign that says”soon” and squints their eyes, is that a reference to the move “The Patriot “ ?

Thank you sir

Liked the presentation. And the various 'fun facts' that are tossed in from time to time. I looked on YT for some information about the Huns on Ten Minute, with no luck. Is such a clip already on YT ? If not, it might be instructive that such a clip be made and put on YT.

Please do a wonderfully snarky video on the thrice failed invasion of Dai Viet. It's epic, and you're the man who can give it the mix of levity and David-vs-Goliath flavor that story deserves. (Please stay away from the Wikipedia articles for your research. Trust me on this. Also, the "Dai" in "Dai Viet" rhymes with "die.")

9:59.... well done you did this for the people

Kublai's Religious Policies can largely be summed up as "eh". Magnificent

I'm actually mad I learned more about the Mongolian Empire here then I did in my middle school social studies class over the course of 4 years.

Best video ever.

I can't get enough of the animations of these videos 😂
