Clarifications/Corrections: Avar/Rouran and Hun Empires are of uncertain origin, and even though most likely related to the ancestors of Turkic and/or Mongol people believe it is a tenuous stretch at best to call them a Turkic empire. The Tuoba might be the best argument for a Turkic empire preceding the GokTurks but again not confirmed and could be argued to be a regional kingdom and not an empire. I say Turkish Khaganate once in the video...Meant to say Turkic as I do in the rest of the video. When I say the Atlantic Ocean it should be the Pacific Ocean. GokTurks never got close to the Atlantic Ocean.

The first king of Tureg was called Buman. Buman is a Mongolian word. In Mongolian, it means infinite. Tureg was ruled by many other Mongol kings. for example tulan king, bilge king, tengri king, baimei king, ijan king and so on. It is not true that the Turks ruled when the first king was a Mongol. Tatars who speak and write Turkish lived together with Mongols, but not all Turks lived together.

They are a Mongoloid ethnic group and closely related to other Northeast Asians, such as Mongols, Koreans and Chinese. The proto-Turks are linked to the Xinglongwa culture along the Liao river in Manchuria. After the decline of thr Xinglongwa culture, the Turkic people adopted a nomadic lifestyle and started their migration to the West.

The main root of Turkic or proto-Turkic is linked to Northeast Asia, both genetically and linguistically. The other two groups may be influential but did not played majority importance. Mongoloid genome is found in every Turkic speaking group and these genome sequences are linked to Manchuria. Thus I speak about the proto-Turkic and not old-Turkic people. While old-Turkic was formed by the mentioned groups (the three groups you mentioned), proto-Turkic was solely from Northeast Asia and Mongoloid.

The Turks consider the first Turkic state to be Xiongnu and the Göktürk Khaganate to be the first Turkic state to actually refer to itself by the name 'Turk'. That doesn't mean they deny the existence of the Huns (on the contrary, they are our ancestors), but for us there's no difference between Hunnic and Turkic as it is in the Western perspective. Hence we confidently say Xiongnu was the first 'Turkic' state to have ever built. Considering the Western mindset which sometime granted us Anatolian Turks no more history to cherish beyond the Seljuks, I can hardly think of adapting their perspective of our history. Informative video. Best wishes.

I do believe the ancestors of Turkic peoples were members of the Xiongnu confederacy. But many other people were as well. To call the Xiongnu a Turkic empire I believe is quite a stretch. Calling the Xiongnu Turkic, is like calling the Romans Spanish. Many Romans became the ancestors of the Spanish, but many did not, others became the ancestors of the Italians, Romanians etc... Like the Turks, the Spanish conquered and have had many descendants, and speak a similar language to their ancestors. So the Turks were Xiongnu...but the Xiongnu were not Turks. I believe it would have primarily been the Xiongnu based near the Altai mountains that became the Turks.

@@EpimetheusHistory I hear you. What you're arguing is but rational. And yes, Xioungnu were not Turkic, but the Turks are the descendants of the Xiougnu. Even if we argued it was not a confederation of various peoples, them being Turkic wouldn't make much sense; as the Turks (Turkic peoples) were the effect, rather than the cause. It's in the same sense that the Turks consider Hungarians a relative nation. But not because they're Turkic (they're not) but because we have a common ancestor, the Huns. I wanted to clear the picture as to why so many Turks call the Huns 'Turkish' ( not even Turkic, which is a result of the language barrier, as in the Turkic languages there isn't a differentiation between Turkic and Turkish. Us Anatolian Turks and other Turkic nations simply call each other 'Türk', and when they google translate, the magic happens:) ) or call the sixteen great empires 'Turkish' (whereas it should be Turkic). It's merely because of this difference in perspective of our history. Although not knowing the difference between 'Turkic' and 'Turkish' is not something I would defend if one is an English speaker. :) Overall, the reason some people insist they're Turkic is because the Turks don't see a difference between Hunnic and Turkic (as Huns are their ancestors). Not because they deny the existence of the Huns and want eveyone to turn out to be Turkic (as some people claim) :) But of course it would be historically inaccurate to call the Huns Turkic. I'd love to add though, that I do believe that the probability of the dominant population and language of the Xiougnu being that of what became to known afterward as 'Turkic' is much higher than it being Gothic, Iranian etc. as is sometimes claimed.

@l3054 wow, i really missunderstood you previous comment i see. Damn! Well i mean I guess this is your understanding of Islam not necessarily the actual Islam? Or do you in fact argue that all that you said is bona fide the truth and Islam is barbaric? If that's your stand point and you think you have done some research I must sadly inform you that you are deluded. (No offence friend) I'm just stating the obvious. The word al zalimun is referred to the wrongdoing people who don't belong to any religions whatsoever and they have no mercy nor love. Islam ruled India and many parts of the world for past centuries yet those areas like India for instance are still not Muslim? Islam is in the minority in India dosent that really go against your research? Islam has devoted a whole chapter of the holy quran to the disbelievers, it's called surattul kafirun, maybe do a bit further of research and you shall see that those aren't double standards but merciful, civilized conversations with the disbelievers. I'm not intending to be arrogant in any way or form I hope not I sound arrogant, I swear I'm not trying to, but in my case my vocabulary isn't as wide as English speaking people therefore sometimes I might sound angry or arrogant, please take that in consideration.

@l3054 wow man I really don't know what you are talking about. The lying part, where allegedly muslims lie to make Islam grow is a big lie. There is something called Al taqiyya , meaning if there is a threat to your life because you are a Muslim then you are allowed to lie and say I'm not a Muslim to preserve you life but not in order to propagate Islam in any way or form. That is a lie and you didnt do the research, I think it's people like David woods who spread those lies and make people misunderstands Islam. Now while I'm actually writing this "long" answer I forgot the other parts and I will loose this if I read your comment again. So I believe the next part was about Muhammad SAW killing 800 children are you mad? How's that possible? Where have you learned about this ? Sources please and don't give me sources from some parties who clearly are against Islam because they take stuff out of context and lie. Those people are al zalimun. Liars merciless liars. Another part of your answer was jihadists and stuff like that, the word jihad means to strive and you probably accosiate it right away with war and IS, but that's not the entire meaning of the word. There are many forms of jihad, striving, for instance you wage war against enemies who are clearly trying to get rid of you or you strive against your own selfish desires(the nafs) the animal within you. Etc etc. Islam dosent fund extremists and terrorist, although today we see alot of Muslims being terrorist isn't same as to say Islam being the cause. Islam has been around for well over 1000 years and there has never been as much extremism amongst muslims today as it has ever been, to me that can be explained by the aggression of the West world, who constantly are interfering in the Islamic countries, stealing their oil and lands(palestine) bochering, killing, demonizing Muslims. Ever since WW I west has been at war with Islam and you expect no response? Sure beheading people and killing innocent people isn't the right way but you cannot actually think that, this is Islam acting, this is response from some uneducated Muslims who are in the minority and are with their peanut brains trying to "strive", little do they know the imperialist oil globalists are behind it all indirectly and thus they are schoolboys used as bait! For the part where u said Islam says that if a Muslim is a rapist, murderer, villain or likewise he will go to paradise and a kafir(disbeliever) who is a *saint* Will go to he'll just because he is a Muslim is debatable. No Muslims should think of him self as a Muslim if they are murderous, rapist or who break other by god forbidden laws. We aren't the judges though, we say that God decides himself who goes to he'll and who goes to paradise, one thing is for sure though, god dosent make injustices towards anyone even if it's as small as the size of an atom(the injustice) he is the just, everyone shall be judge by their own actions. I have heard that most Muslims actually also will go to hell, but if they actually and honestly were monotheistic(not muslims) monotheistic then god might give them a chance to leave hell after some punishment. but I'm not sure don't take my words for it. I'm not educated in Islam, I'm not an imam, those questions you should direct towards someone who could actually give you a trustworthy answer. Don't listen to everyone. Also if you think Islam is not the truth then why are you worried about us believing other people will go to hell? Maybe just ignore that? Do you even believe in hell? Or are you trying to imply that Islam is barbaric since disbelievers will go to hell?

Teo Man Sayings of different peoples about the Turks 1. A chicken is not a bird, a Turk is not a person (Ukrainian proverb) 2. If you want to conceive a child for a Turkish woman, finish her slippers, the flies will finish the job. (Folk proverb) 3. An uninvited guest is like a Turk (Russian proverb) 4. Turkey, the country of the small mind (Slavatian proverb) 5. Rather, a chicken will take off than a Turk will learn to love. (Arabic saying) 6. If you are dealing with a Turk, do not let go of your stick. (Armenian proverb) 7. If you want the Turk to obey you, hit him with a stick. (Armenian proverb) 8. The devil has many guises, the main of which is Turkic. (Assyrian proverb) 9, Where the Turk's foot has gone, the grass does not grow. (Bulgarian proverb) 10 If a Turk speaks of peace, then there will be war. (Greek saying) 11, Bad life, that neighborhood with a Turk. (Kurdish proverb) 12, People are building, the Turks are destroying. (Serbian proverb) 13 The rooster will not lay eggs, and the Turk will not become a man. (Romanian proverb) 14A jealous husband is like a Turk. (Kozma Prutkov) 15. The Turk is the harbinger of the devil. (Folk proverb) 16. Dirty shit. A good person will not be called a Turk. (Folk proverb) 17. Turks are the weeds of the universe. (Folk proverb) 18. Turks are terribly arrogant, nasty and just bad people (Folk proverb) 19. Turks stupid freaks. They insolently stick to the girls of other nations, sincerely considering them ALL prostitutes and just fools obsessed with sex ... I would just kill for this. Dirty, smelly goats... 20. Such as the Turkish-like “historian” who spoke here (so, by the way), that this country was built entirely on foreign blood, by foreign forces and foreign means. This nation of pigs “gave” only chaos to the world and could only create such an “invention” as genocide. And a historian who denies this fact is simply stuffed with Turkish shit, which no one except them calls history. If you like it, eat it, but don't pretend to be objective. And as for the “strongest”, yes, you are really strong only when you fight with women, with children or the elderly. In front of real power, you always scamper like hares. And what are these countries that, thanks to the Ottoman Empire, are in the top twenty? I have met many from those countries that were once part of this empire, from Morocco to Iraq, and I have not heard that they were very grateful. Well, except maybe your bedding like Albanians or Bosniaks.

Maybe you look at the map and find now the country of Mongolia is very big, but actually all population in that country is smaller than a normal city of South China(and the GDP is even smaller)

Alex Chang !!! Much much goes back to ancient times! ZHOU ERA!!! s155239215.onlinehome.us/turkic/btn_Archeology/Zhou/CambridgeZhouChouNorthChinaEn.htm s155239215.onlinehome.us/turkic/10_History/Taskin/TaskinSunnu1968En.htm Archeology shows multi-centered and multi-cultural world of archaic China not reflected in the literary tradition of the Chinese annals, and largely ignored in its patriotic historiography. The kingdom of Shang (Yin) occupied territory of modern Henan Province and parts of adjacent provinces. It was surrounded by number of semi-dependent tribes that also included Chinese tribes. The tribes Qiang 羌, Zhou 周, Kungfang 攻防, Guifang 鬼方 neighbored western lands; tribes Tufang 土方 and Loufang 楼烦, 樓煩 neighbored northern lands, tribes Xaofang and others neighbored southern lands, a tribe Zhenfang was adjacent to the eastern lands. The oracle bones most frequently mention the Kung Fang and Tu Fang tribes. The language of Yin is a controversial subject, ethnologically the Yin elite was decidedly nomadic Türkic, the majority of population was Melanoid, some tribes were Chinese. The Yin inscriptions are vaguely defined to be in a language of South Asian type, but since the Yin script has developed into the Chinese script, in the Chinese historiography the script is held as positively Proto-Chinese, and the language as possibly Proto-Chinese, though all sources skillfully dance around the subject. The “South Asian type“ language includes languages of completely different families, including Austro-Asiatic/Munda, Dravidian, isolate Burushaski, Indo-Aryan, Iranian, isolate Nnahali, Sinhala/Vedda, and Tibeto-Burman, so as far as the definition of the Yin language, it is a fiction. Although the Shang script was a precursor of the later Chinese script, it seemed to have contained many words which later disappeared, and it is not known whether the Shang language was the same as the language of the Zhou time (1045-256 BC). Only with the Zhou period began emerging everything that was later regarded as typically “Chinese“. The situation with Chinese script resembles that of Russia, which came up with a murky story about “Russian“ runes, and adopted Türkic mythology and folklore as “Russian“ folklore. Tentatively, the first Shang empire of China was founded by the Dravidian people, and they also set up a new Shang Empire at Anyang 安陽. The Shang was a strongest kingdom for a long time, it did not dominate a large part of ancient China, but was one state among hundreds of small city states (wanguo 萬國) headed by bo (伯). There were two Shang Dynasties, one archaeologically described as Melanoid Qiang-Shang and the other as Polynesian Yin-Shang. The first Shang Dynasty was alternatively founded by Melanoids belonging to the Yueh tribe called Qiang 羌 from the Qiangfeng 羌 方, a country to the west of Yin-Shang, Shensi and Yunnan. The Melanesian and Polynesian populations lived in intimate contact for millennia and probably heavily exchanged genes. The Polynesians probably originated in East Asia, not Southeast Asia. Genetically, Taiwan probably belongs to the early Polynesians who settled Taiwan before they expanded into outer Oceania.
@babaeren625 жыл бұрын
Alex Chang !!! In Anyang 安陽 (aka Yinxu 殷墟, "Wastes of Yin"), were unsealed many tombs, sharply varying in size and burial inventory, from shallow pits without weapons or bronze to huge cross-shaped underground tombs more than ten meters deep. The underground tombs numbering slightly more than a dozen, were monumental structures resembling upside-down truncated pyramid, the largest of them in excess of 380 m2, with wide dromos on all four sides, the burial chambers were filled with precious utensils, bronze weapons, jade ornaments, and gold. Each tomb needed no less than estimated 7,000 man-days for construction. In the large graves, putatively of kings, were found hundreds of buried people, and next to it were entire fields of burials of decapitated war captives with hands tied behind their back, and pit with thousands of their severed heads. Separately were buried military chariots with horses and drivers. About two thousand inscriptions on the oracle bones uncovered so far describe sacrifice of the people (simultaneously up to1500 people, their total number reached 14,197. The captives were sacrificed to gods and ancestors, the oracle inscriptions mention scores of names of Shang (Yin) gods, a reverence to mountains and rivers was widespread and included a ceremony of mass human sacrifice, and probably existed a ritual of sacred marriage as a fertility ritual. In the foundations and other parts of the palace and temple type buildings archaeologists found hundreds of burials, including people buried alive. The Anyang small and medium-size tombs with distinct inhumation, grave goods, and bronze weapons belonged to the Shang (Yin) population, notable for their anthropological homogeneity, in contrast with the racial heterogeneity of decapitated skulls from the large Shang (Yin) tombs, which were eastern Mongoloids, continental Mongoloids, and Melanoid southern Mongoloid population ascending to Australoids; the Shang (Yin) raided up to several hundred kilometers away headhunting for the bloody human sacrifice. In the Shang (Yin) society, rituals demanding massive sacrifices were performed regularly, a war was a communal norm, a main objective of the military campaigns was a booty; the grain and cattle also were required, in addition to the captives, for sacrifice to the gods and ancestors. The Shang ruling centers were mobile. The Shang officers rode in handsome bronze and turquoise chariots introduced from the barbarians of Asia's interior. The Shang family system was not a patriarchal system of the later Chinese. The Shang crown succession was lateral succession, after the old king, his eldest sibling inherited the throne. Shang kings had a distinct clan system in which each prince and cousin had a special title with an appropriate domain. In the more distant areas from Anyang, the Shang kings had officials without kinship with the ruler and therefore inclined to more independence from the center. Upper class engaged in hunting as a sport. The Shang armies already included cavalry and archery. Shang-Yin required their vassals to supply contingents for the army campaigns, as part of their tribute. Most of the traits recorded in the literature and uncovered by the archeologists has a distinct imprint of the Türkic nomadic culture. The archeology shows multi-centered and multi-cultural world of archaic China, not reflected in the literary tradition of the Chinese annals. A Lung-shan (Longshan) culture is associated with the Xia 夏 civilization (ca. 2070-1600 BC). The founder of the Xia civilization was Yu. Wolfram Eberhard, in the “Local culture of South and East China“, Leiden,1968, maintained that Yu came from the south and established the Xia dynasty in Shansi. The southern Melanoid Mongoloids were called in the Chinese literature Li-min, Kunlung, Qiang, Yi and Yueh. The founders of the Xia Dynasty and the Shang Dynasties were southern Mongoloids. They were called Yueh and Qiang. The modern Chinese are descendants of the Zhou. The second Shang Dynasty (situated at Anyang) was founded by the Yin, and the dynasty is called Shang-Yin. The Yin or Oceanic Mongoloid type is associated with the Austronesian speakers (Kwang-chih Chang, “Prehistoric and early historic culture horizons and traditions in South China“, Current Anthropology, 5 (1964) pp.359-375 :375). The Austronesian or Oceanic Mongoloid type were called Yin, Feng, Yen, Zhiu Yi and Lun Yi. During the Anyang-Shang period, the Qiang lived in Qiangfang, a country to the west of Yin-Shang. The Qiang people were often referred to as the Ta Qiang “many Qiang“, they were used as agricultural workers, and used in Yin-Shang ancestral rites as sacrifice victims. The people who live in the Southeast Asia today speak Austro-Asiatic languages, which are closely related to the Austronesian group. In China, the kurgan culture began around 3,000 BC. At the kurgan site called Hu Shu culture in the Kiangsu Province, the kurgans were man-made knolls called “terraced sites“. The kurgans are flat on the top, where people built their dwellings. These kurgans served three purposes 1) burial kurgans, 2) religious places (i.e., high ground), and 3) habitation. Possibly, the Euphrates-Tigris valley people introduced kurgans and their distinct arts to China. In the N.Pontic, the first kurgans were introduced in the Sredni Stog culture (4,500-3,500 BC).
@babaeren625 жыл бұрын
Alex Chang !!! By the 1000 BC the Hau/Han tribes came down from the mountains and began enslaving Yueh and Li Min people, killed off as many Yueh, Qiang and Li Min tribes as they could, often used Qiang as sacrifice victims, and pushed the classical Mongoloids southward into Yunnan and eventually Southeast Asia. The Han are ancestors of the Chinese Han people. This movement of Han and classical Mongoloid people southward forced the Qiang, Li Min and other Melanesian tribes onto the Pacific coast. The Chinese and Classical Mongoloid people share few if any genes with the Australians. The Classical Mongoloids share genes mainly with the coastal Melanesians who are of African origin, but few genes with the Chinese of East Asia. Transition from Shang to Zhou, from Wolfram Eberhard, in the “Local culture of South and East China“, Leiden,1968: “During the time of the Shang dynasty, the Zhou formed a small realm in the west, at first in central Shensi, an area which even in much later times was the home of many non-Chinese tribes. Before the beginning of the eleventh century BC they must have pushed into eastern Shensi, due to pressures of other tribes which may have belonged to the Turkish ethnic group. However, it is also possible that their movement was connected with pressures from Indo-European groups. An analysis of their tribal composition at the time of the conquest seems to indicate that the ruling house of the Zhou was related to the Turkish group, and that the population consisted mainly of Turks and Tibetans (Qiang). Their culture was closely related to that of Yang-shao, the previously described painted pottery culture, with, of course, the progress brought by time. They had bronze weapons and, especially, the war-chariot. Their eastward migration, however, brought them within the zone of the Shang culture, by which they were strongly influenced, so that the Zhou culture lost more and more of its original character and increasingly resembled the Shang culture (Considering that the Shang culture had all markers of the Türkic culture, there was not much of a gap to bridge to begin with). The Zhou were also brought into the political sphere of the Shang, as shown by the fact that marriages took place between the ruling houses of Shang and Zhou, until the Zhou state became nominally dependent on the Shang state in the form of a dependency with special prerogatives. Meanwhile the power of the Zhou state steadily grew, while that of the Shang state diminished more and more through the disloyalty of its feudatories and through wars in the East. Finally, about 1028 BC, the Zhou ruler, named Wu Wang (“the martial king“), crossed his eastern frontier and pushed into central Honan. His army was formed by an alliance between various tribes, in the same way as happened again and again in the building up of the armies of the rulers of the steppes. Wu Wang forced a passage across the Yellow River and annihilated the Shang army. He pursued its vestiges as far as the capital, captured the last emperor of the Shang, and killed him. Thus was the Zhou dynasty founded, and with it we begin the actual history of China. The Zhou brought to the Shang culture strong elements of Turkish and also Tibetan culture, which were needed for the release of such forces as could create a new empire and maintain it through thousands of years as a cultural and, generally, also a political unit.“ (One critical note: W.Eberhard treats the Türkic dynastic marriage in Chinese or IE cultural context, which is not applicable to the Türkic context. In the Türkic tradition, dynastic marriage is a tribal marriage, it is a union of two tribes. Since the Shang (Yin) “family system was not a patriarchal system“, and neither could the Türkic Zhou system be corrupted in the beginning, the Shang and Zhou “marriages between the ruling houses“ could only be dynastic unions that confederated two realms. Zhou and Türkic traditions are identical in naming concubines, in the royal court of Zhou concubines or secondary wives, and sons of concubines, were called by their birth clan name)

Western historians still don't accept it but it has been proven in many documents as well as chinese documents that they are same people who established Gokturk (Turkic) Khaganate which is actually the first Turkic state according to western historians. In Turkey it has been taught in schools that The Great Hun empire (xiongnu) is our first state, that they are our ancestors, that this is our history and everyone know this. Asian Huns (xiongnu) has great place in our culture. Mete Han - the most important ruler of (xiongu) Huns - is the most important individual in our history also known as Oghuz Khan Father of Turks. I also want to share that Turkish Land Forces' foundation date is 209 BC - the year Mete Han took the throne of The Great Hun Empire.

@@lesliewen3428 under the grand genghis khan statue at the East of Ulaan Batur, there are 3 scripts. 1- Moghol ulusu 2- Hyun-lu ulusu 3- Türk ulusu Ulus means "Nation, people". Mongols do not seperate these 3 people. There are hundreds of common words, names and customs with modern Turkish and Mongol. As a Turkish i can walk from Turkey to North Western China and communicate in Turkish along the way. Can you communicate with anybody in Cantonese or Mandarin anywhere except China?! But we don't look alike in the mirror, so we are not related. Okay!
