Crusader-Mongol Alliance - Kings and Generals DOCUMENTARY

The Kings and Generals animated historical documentary series on Mongol History continues with a video on the alliance between the Mongols and the Crusader states and the diplomatic negotiations between the Mongol empire and the Christian kingdoms in Europe and Asia. As the Mongols took over a large portion of the Middle East and started their constant wars with the Mamluks of Egypt, they started looking for allies and found them in the local Christian states.

A very good novel based around that period is "The Saracen" by Robert Shea, it is the story of a mamluk of English origin, captured in the Levant as a boy, and eventually becoming the son-in-law of Baibars, future sultan of Egypt; who sends him to the papal court to try and twart the alliance between Mongols and Christians.

[@davidkana8434]

@The Jackmeister: Mongol History Do you have any info on how the 3/4 Khanate's converted to Islam? Always fascinates me, surely they would have thought Tengrism would be superior?

[@TheJackmeisterMongolHistory]

@@davidkana8434 the short answer: basically, the Ilkhanate and Chagatayids ruled over majority Muslim regions. The thing about shamanic/animist religions like Tengriism is that they aren't really exclusive. Even today's Mongolia, despite being officially Buddhist, maintains some shamanic customs and acts (most obviously in the continued presence of shamans). Unlike being a Christian or Muslim first, which is in the medieval context a matter of identity, Tengriism is not an identity. Simple example is seen when the Franciscan Friar William of Rubruck traveled through the Golden Horde. Sartaq, a son of Batu was a Christian. But his advisers told Rubruck not to call him a Christian, "because [Sartaq] is not a Christian, he is a Mongol." Basically, a nomadic Tengriist could adopt a modified Christianity or Islam, (because from their point of view, it's not something countering their identity) whereas a Christian or Muslim would not adopt shamanic practices (because this ran counter to the faiths they were raised in.) With a more flexible view to religion, it makes it easier to adopt and adapt it until it until you end up with the conversion. Now, this was very gradual. And not universally accepted. The Chagatai Khanate basically split into two halves in thr mid 14th century, with the western (Transoxiana) with more cities and Persisn influence having the more thoroughly Islamized and sedentarized Mongols, and the eastern (Moghulistan) remaining less Islamized and more nomadic. While official histories from these states like to make it seem the ruler led the conversion (and thus demonstrated how holy he was!) It was probably a reaction to the increasing islamization of the Mongol elite. The Ilkhanate officially has Islam become state religion under Ghazan Khan in the 1290s. By then, it's been over 30 years since Hulegu's death, and over 60 since the death of Chinggis Khan. That's an entire generation who grew up entirely in the Ilkhanate, who have never been fully nomadic, never been to Mongolia, never known imperial unity and have grown up in the Middle East, surrounded by Muslims, Muslim architecture and culture and practices. Convetsion provide alternative means of legitimacy (you can portray yourself as an Islamic monarch, as Ghazan did) but it's also basically an acceptance of the current situation. The Mongols were fascinated by Persian culture and motifs: when you've never seen Mongolia and been raised among Muslims (even if the parents weren't muslim, every new borne Mongol is interacting daily with all Muslims), there is little advantage either politically or personally to maintain being a Tengriist. Indeed, with intermarriage and intermingling, a good majority of conversions were probably due to personal conviction. The idea of an eternal paradise once you die is also tough to compete with. Tengriism doesn't offer a great alternative to that (basically it's a spirit world were your standing is the same as it was in life).

[@jrsun]

Underrated video. Everyone should be required to watch this video. It's so mind opening about the relationships between the East and the West in the Middle Ages. Also many people do not know about the Crusader states or the splitted up kingdoms of the Mongol Empire.

This could be one of the most fascinating insights yet on this channel or any channel.There seemed to be sentiment for vocation from the East to Crusade even more than many leaders in the West at that point! Imagine if the Orient was united and the West was ready? O the timing, o tempora. I really desire to study the diary of the envoy from China to understand his prospective. And people thought Prester Johannes was only a myth! Must be something to his enigma. Of course the Franciscans were searching for the meaning of Biblical prophecy of Zechariah 6:12 (behold the man named Branch or Orient?).. Also great job on the Ecumenical Council of Lyons - you really shed a lot of light on history that many sources overlook and the Orient's role in this story. Again history is built upon the sequence of events and the timing of things missing or hitting the mark. You hit a bulls-eye. Great job.

Fantastic animation

[@lao5610]

Love the channel and have been following it for years. That said, please slow down the narration and slides of the documentary. It’s definitely sped up recently and I feel like it’s harder to fully process all the information. Why waste the huge improvements in graphics the channel has seen recently by rushing through it? Also, not one to nitpick but big error in narration/editing at 13:29. Love the content and hope you guys continue to grow.

When you realize you wont get killed for sending a message *happy envoy noises*

[@andriilink5666]

At that time that was much safer to be a Mongol envoy, then a local citizen... But that took Mongols quite a lot of time and effort to teach others how envoys are to be treated.
