[DrinkingStar]

You have just now placed a whole semester's worth of Mongol history into to a 90 minute video. Congratulations on such enormous feat. Who needs college when we have you?

[OG Yohon Love uP]

@Jerald Baxter 😂😂👊🏾👊🏾👆🏾

[OG Yohon Love uP]

@graffProdigy 😂😂😂

[OG Yohon Love uP]

Yes yes yes, tell it like it is my friend. Who need college when you have Kings and Generals...💙💙👊🏾

[Jerald Baxter]

I am reeling from all the information. I keep reminding myself that I will not be tested at the end of the video, so just relax and enjoy this excellent program.

[Adam Shafi]

fo real tho

[The Jackmeister: Mongol History]

As the writer of this series, I just want to say my official position is that Ariq Böke was true and rightful Khaan of the Ilk Mongol Ulus, and it will be a cold day in hell before I recognize 1) Khubilai as Khaan 2) Saskatchewan as part of Canada

[Rebel Bulbasar]

Why do you recognize Canada in general?

[OG Yohon Love uP]

@El Bandito I first solutes you. Because, it's a mere fact that each human being has his own way of thinking and, perceiving things. And that's the exact balance that forms life itself. Because life would be absolutely miserable if we all thought and acted alike. Oh yea, the villains wins more i agree. They come in, rob, take and, kill and they move on. But, when I die, I want to be remembered as a son who fought well against evil...👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾

[El Bandito]

@OG Yohon Love uP That's up to personal interpretations. For each hero who saved a life, there are dozens who took it away. Villains win more, cause harming is easier than helping--always has been. History, as well as the current state of the world already shows us that fact.

[OG Yohon Love uP]

@El Bandito I somewhat disagree. The righteous ALWAYS prevail. You don't have to physically survive an ordeal in order to be triumphant. If you take a look back in time, most heroes died during their endeavors. Because in the end, it's not a matter of dying, it's how and why you died that counts the most. Because even in death, the righteous prevails...👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾

[OG Yohon Love uP]

I wish I could become a writer. However, I've learned that talent and skills come from the Lord. But this program is awesome. Please keep up the good work...👊🏾

[Jack Miller]

I love reading these comments seeing how Kings and Generals has inspired other up an coming channels like Expanded History and Mr Mitchell History. You guys are real pioneers!

[Darrien Sanders]

Don't gas them up lol

[History Captured]

Help grow our community and check our channel for more historical content.

[Gustavo Ferreira]

@Expanded History never thank a Salazar, both were very bad 😞

[nonya0]

i love comment like this where i learn new history channel.

[Marius]

You guys make such Phenomenal content of the mongols and their empire and so much more keep up the good work King and generals 👏

[OG Yohon Love uP]

I most definitely agree with that. This is awesomely good literature at it's best...👊🏾

[Big Matthews]

I’m mad at you

[Mike Modugno]

The Golden Horde has to be one of my favorite historical nations. Thank you so much for covering its history so well. I would love to see more awesome content on the Crimean Khanate.

[Efe Güller]

@teo vu of course central asian blood is a very small percentage in turkey. Anatolia is an area that a lot of different empires conquered and many different people migrated. I didnt say anything about the dna however how did the conversation come here

[teo vu]

@Efe Güller Fun Fact: all Turkic people share similar DNA types Except for Turkish people whom DNA is Identical to Armenians and Kurds while those of western Turkey is similar to Greeks. Why is that? According to DNA studies in Istanbul university only 15% of Turkey has central asian Turkic DNA. It seems Turkish people are not even really Turkic. Turkish people are suppose to be Turkmen or Oghuz Turks like the Seljuks but all Statues and murals like Seljuks are Mongoloid looking. Even the Islam Hadith states that Turks have small eyes and flat noses. Islamic Hadith (95)Chapter: Fighting against the Turks(95)باب قِتَالِ التُّرْكِ "The Hour will not be established until you fight with the Turks; people with small eyes, red faces, and flat noses. Their faces will look like shields coated with leather. The Hour will not be established till you fight with people whose shoes are made of hair."

[teo vu]

​@Efe Güller Can you link a source that claims there is no info about the Giray family? If you cant then were just going to assume youre a liar and a troll =P

[Efe Güller]

Higher Order Reasoning if they were like animals they wouldnt have defeated every nation around them. You talk history like you talk about a sports team.

[Efe Güller]

@teo vu there is no such info about these dates and people

[Arghun Pride]

You’ve made huge work guys. None of the Russian history channels on youtube didn’t get closer to your detailed masterpiece videos about Nomads or medievals Mongols. Huge respect to your brilliant channel K&G! Your old subscriber from Kazakhstan.👍🇰🇿🐎🐎🐎

[Jim R]

@Reiner Elie Rilke lol..."Chineses" made me laugh out loud

[Reiner Elie Rilke]

@UP TO THE CEILING DOWN TO THE FLOOR Turks don't exist anymore, except some weak tribes in Siberia and in some regions ruled by russians or chineses. There are just "turkic speaking peoples" now, but they are turkic like the haïtians are franks

[Lexus Reddy]

@UP TO THE CEILING DOWN TO THE FLOOR 500 yrs is a long time

[Orgil]

@UP TO THE CEILING DOWN TO THE FLOOR do you know that ancient turks like gokturks were Mongol people right ?it is even proven by dna test. Mongols had Hunnu(Xiongnu),Rouran,Xianbei,Khitan etc.modern day turks such as kazakhs and uzibeks have Mongol blood

[Leonard Blazevic]

Love to Kazakhstan, from Croatia

[Expanded History]

“When life gives you lemons, conquer the world.” - Genghis Khan

[Jim R]

My mom has that saying hanging in the kitchen on a cute little sign she got from TJ Maxx

[Monad]

😂

[Justin G]

Damn straight

[Jayadeep P J]

When life hands you lemon, find someone with tequila and salt 😂😂

[rouy malic]

Genghis Khan conquering land mass any% speed run world record

[Sean Breen]

I find it very interesting that the Mongol and Roman Empires respectively had similar declines but from opposite sides. Roman imperium began with an Imperial dynasty from which legitimacy came and gradually the military took more and more of a role in choosing who would be emperor. The Mongols began with the army choosing the next ruler and drifting away from that towards imperial dynasties. 🤔

[graffProdigy]

This video is like 1000yrs if History told in an hour! I never knew the Mongols had such a deep and extensive History? This was very good and informative. They never had a day without conflict, that always made them so interesting like when the Pharoas ruled Egypt!

[Cary Rumley]

If you want more, Dan Carlin does probably the best overall resource on this topic with his Wrath of Khans series. It's like 5 episodes of 5 hours each. Great fucking stuff.

[Daniel Grigg]

Kublai lived to 78, Genghis to 65 and Timur to 68. It's wild how the ones who lived long drunk just as much as the ones who died in their 30s.

[Tilian]

Seriously, your channel is the best when it comes to historytelling. I've learn so much from your stuff and I'm all into things like that.

[Warmaker01]

3:00 You have to appreciate just how big this empire was. For a period of time it was all under one guy.

[John L.]

Especially considering how slow everything moved then. What they did better then most was traveling light and eating off the land.

[The Corporal]

Thank you very much for this documentary, the Mongol Empire has a very important place in military history.

[Bleed Green]

@Johnny Boy Idk, Mongols controlled Eastern Europe, Middle East, and China all at once at one point. But yea, they couldn’t hold it all beyond the 13th century.

[Johnny Boy]

LMFAO, stronger than Alexander ? who literally reached India and was gonna conquer it if he didn’t die ? or stronger than the Romans at their height ? bro you’re fucking tripping, Romans controlled all land west of the Rhine and England, literally in 3 continents, Mongols controlled open plains and bunch of nomads, Britain Empire controlled quarter of the world, they literally controlled all of India, Mongols don’t even come close to them, not to mention the Umayyads who controlled from Persia to fucking Spain, get that in head and modern USA is incomparable, Mongols went as they came, 170 years, Ottomans lasted 600 years, Byzantines 1000 years, get out with your bullshit

[Purevjav Terbish]

@Noone Noodle I think not,made some change.Roman empire ,arab conquest and Europe countries made a lot of positive change in world history.But mongol conquest was the most super unique event in world military history.

[Noone Noodle]

Mongols changed In all the World history

[Purevjav Terbish]

@The Corporal Iam mongol,writing from Mongolia.That state was the most huge and most powerful military state in all human history.Much more powerful than-state of Alexander,Roman empire,Arab khalifat,British empire,USSR and modern USA.That was like -huge many headed monster in our flat Earth.Head are direction of conquest-east asia,India,Muslim countries,east and central Europe.

[Matheus Reis]

Not even watched yet and I gave a like, this channel is great and I love that explores the Mongol's history a lot

[Lachlan Neal]

I used to say they remind me of the old history channel but I have come to the conclusion they are better, amazing content and editing

[Mal Bradley]

These guys have Mongol documentaries, ww2 series, Ceasar, even fantasy favorites like star wars and lord if the rings:) no shortage of great content you didn't know you wanted to learn about. fantastic channel indeed

[Agent History]

What i do 24/7

[Luis Felipe Monteiro]

Hello, friends from KnG!!! Excellent work as always! Let me ask you a question: How do you manage to produce several 30 min plus videos about history and geography and publish them weekly?? Do you have multiple teams working? Who researches and writes the scripts? How big is your team?

[History of Revolutions]

"I have heard that one can conquer the empire on horseback, but one cannot govern it on horseback" - Kublai Khan

[Jason Campbell]

His grandfather would disagree

[karen kk]

unless you govern it by conquering it again and again xd

[John Smith]

@Herb Thompson still though he couldn’t of held from the pacific to Atlantic although I agree given 10 more years of unity the mongols could have ruled from sea to sea for a brief period

[Muhammed Yılmaz]

Mongols governed pretty successfully their empires to be honest.

[Orgil]

@Herb Thompson true

[universal user]

Please do a full documentary about Amir Timur (Tamerlane), including all previous episodes, his battlefields against other countries, and the stages of his state's rise and fall

[Shahrul Amar]

Tamerlane also a brutal man. 😬😬😬

[Smek Smak]

I believe they have a playlist pre made in their channel as part of their Mongol Empire section.

[Aasem Ahsan]

12:02 Ilkhanate 19:05 Family Tree 29:44 Chagtai Khanate 37:52 Mongol rule in China 57:03 Family Tree 58:10 The Golden Horde

[- Apex -]

Yes thank you! Was looking for this for when I need to take a break. 😎👍

[A. Preka]

quality as always ,I love this channel I hope you are going to do some more vids about Italy , Asia and the Balkan peninsula, the history in this areas is enormous

[Rafterman Howard]

I've been subscribed since the Battle of Trafalgar (no, not since 1805, you know what I mean) and together with creators like HistoryMarche, Epic History TV, Historia Civilis and many others, I've been convinced for years that television simply cannot compete, except for some obvious classics like Shoah, World at War, The Civil War (Ken Burns), Apocalypse: La premiere guerre mondiale etc, I'm just deflated anytime I turn on Discovery or the History channel. On the off chance (5%) that they actually have something historical, it's usually some generic talking head formulaic trash that you just know was made without any love going in to it. Shame on them for being easily bested by dudes making history docs without any large studio or network backing them up, shame.

[the high guy]

You guys are the first KZbin channel or for the matter the only other people I've heard pronounce Genghis name correctly. And now I will be watching all your stuff

[CaptainOfHawkRepublicForge]

!?What

[B. Yung]

Korea was subjugated by Khan army. I still remember the stories of 500 children roped and transported through the snowy mountains to northward to be trained to become Khan’s future soldiers. I also read that some of the escapees had their hands drilled with a hole to insert rope through it to set an example to other children what could happen in attempt of escape during travel. Not sure how accurate it is.

[M B]

@Creator Я that actually sounds very unlik them but are probably made up to make them sound scarier

[Kal El]

@Bojangles oh both are from Japhet i see.

[Bojangles]

@Kal El Gog and Magog are tribes of people that lived somewhere in north Asia modern day Russia. They were skilled with the arrows, and were worshippers of the sky, so they're most likely Tengri worshippers. According to Abrahamic faiths they were sealed behind an iron dam by a conqueror. That conqueror was either the Persian king Darius or his son Xerxes, more likely Darius.

[Kal El]

@Bojangles isnt magog a child of gomer and ashkanaz?

[مصطفى 🇪🇬]

@snake thepeg It seems that you have a problem in your mind, look at what happened to the Russian army in Ukraine, Hundreds of tanks, planes were destroyed, tens of thousands of soldiers were killed, and they did not make real progress, let alone occupying the entire country. look at the American army, It was destroyed in Vietnam for 19 years, and it was destroyed once, Another in Afghanistan for 20 years, if you think that occupying another country is an easy thing for anyone, then you have a problem with your mind and you should go to a doctor

[Greatkhan6]

The debate over whether corruption or climate change brought down the Yuan seems to highlight something interesting. Such corruption and gift giving was hardly unusual for states in that time and it was only with the arrival of the climate crises that the system broke. Like all corrupt systems it worked fine...until it didn't.

[honey badger]

Mamluk Sultanate destroy them

[Joe Nichols]

Another amazing video. I love the long style format. Please make more long docs 👍

[justsomerandomdude]

Lovely video...I hope you'll do more videos on other parts of Africa (south, central and west) like the Zulu ,Rozvi, Akans, Benin etc

[Cinnamon]

Would love a video on Burmese history. Nice work again K&G!

[Andreas Dedes]

I miss the total war footage in your new videos, please bring some back! and keep up the good work!

[eichler721]

Great video the Mongolian Horde was my favorite historical empire. You did them justice thanks.

[Pavle Pavlovic]

This compilation video really feels like the end of a long story of Mongol Empire that was started by K&G years ago (2019, I think). But there is still so much more to talk about the sucessors of Genghis (especially Timurids and Mughals). One era may have ended and a new one is about to begin.

[Klutch 🗡️]

I can only imagine how immense and vast the monggol empire was during its peak. Greetings from the Philippine Khanate 🇵🇭

[charles hoang]

@Klutch 🗡️ And also they could not handle the humidity of Southeast Asia,plus we ambushed and burned all of their supply ships enroute from Guangdong province,We also installed spikes on the river, they stucked on the river when the tide going down.

[Klutch 🗡️]

@charles hoang oh yeah apparently the horde can't fight well in the deep jungles.

[Klutch 🗡️]

Green McAdams oh yes ma'am. 🤎 Greetings.

[Klutch 🗡️]

Youry Tyua oh yeah baby 😘

[Ivo Kantarski]

Krale I generali/kings and generals. So satisfying to watch your videos. Greatly appreciating your work on historic topics.

[Jonathan Allard]

Huge work put into this and huge thanks from me. Very educative. I listen to this while doing house chores and I love it. Thank you.

[OG Yohon Love uP]

Same here, I truly adore this program...💙👊🏾

[Jonathan Allard]

@JustFly Yeah but let's be real, the 13th century Mongols were a hard people. If you weren't hardboiled, you didn't survive your childhood. As they say, hard times breed strong people. Strong people bring easy times. Easy times breed soft people. And then soft people bring hard times. And the wheel turns this way. I have the luxury of being a soft man, unable to imagine the strengths required to do what these people did, but if we were both born in 13th century Mongolia, we'd either die in childhood or be strong enough to follow our Khan. And to BE the Khan, yeah. That takes a special breed of alpha-ness that I do not possess. Temujin was an extremely strong man, both mentally and physically, for sure.

[JustFly]

I cant imagine walking or riding that distance, let alone conquering and ruling.

[Higher Learners Media]

Just wanted to say we absolutely love your channel. Please keep it coming at all cost. 📚 👍

[Ahmed Zain]

“Conquering the world on horseback is easy; it is dismounting and governing that is hard.” Temujin better known as Genghis Khan.

[Slim Rhyno]

Wow. The work that must go into these videos just boggles my mind. Thank you for creating such a wonderful resource for people such as myself. 🙏

[judasmartel]

> El-Temur, Toghon Temur, Bayan of the Merkid, Toqto *Empress Ki flashbacks intensify* Great job of covering the Fall of the Mongols, a very important part of history yet so misunderstood and not covered well enough. No empire lasts forever, and the Mongol Empire was no exception.

[Bravo Sierra]

Busy house keeping with this informative & entertaining documentary making light work. Thank you K&G 🙏🏼

[John Doe]

Tokto doing a pro gamer move resigning to make his rival take the blame and returned thriumpanthly is awesome

[Expanded History]

Genghis Khan be like: “Nice little country you have there. Have you seen my continent?”

[knessi ng]

The Empire was just to big for it's time, specially it was on land, thus limiting the speed of direct communication and each khanate slowly becoming independent from the Khan. Maybe if the Empire had Railways and a Telegraph system the empire would've lasted much longer.

[Marcos Inzunza]

All my respects to Kings & Generals incredible work. I would love to watch the End of the Hyborean Age of Robert Howard's world of Conan. It would be really wonderful.

[Lachlan Neal]

This channel is amazing, thanks for all your hard work!

[OG Yohon Love uP]

I agree...👊🏾

[Adam Latosiński]

In many aspects: Mongols: "We're an exception!" When it comes to the empire's fall: Mongols: "We're not an exception..."

[mark mulligan artwork by Linda Hulce]

There is one overarching factor you have not yet covered in full in your brilliant subset “How the Mongols lost X, Y, Z” of your matchless analysis of world military history. Bravo for those and your other works, by the way. That factor is the Black Death along the Silk Road throughout China, South and East Asia. Along with the string of environmental catastrophes (Mandate of Heaven failures) you carefully list in the Mongol loss of China, the effects of the Black Death in the Far East must have been equivalent or worse to those in primitive Europe compared to its packed cities, Mongol military garrisons and bustling trade routes. I have seen no such analysis from anyone. We are facing the same Mandate of Heaven failures across the planet in real time. Covid and its deadlier upcoming sisters will mimic Black Death societal and military effects. Your analysis is the only one could draw parallels (and perhaps retrieval solutions) from this sorry mess we’ve gotten ourselves into once again. Do please extend the scope of your analyses.

[Crafty Spirit]

I watched the previous parts as they were released and almost skipped this one, but you have added new material! I think you should mention that in the video description, it is unclear to some viewers

[Jhoinan Alvarado]

i just watch your videos no matter the content!!!!! Very informative and you help ordinary people really comprehend the concept! keep the great work 💯💯💯💯

[Jim R]

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: The Golden Horde is possibly the greatest, most badass, name for a group of people ever.

[ParryTheTrojan]

When you do your Roman history videos, could you please go back to using some cinematics from ROME II total war? They were such masterpieces, and really immersed you into the time period.

[Vaibhav Shah]

The real reason it fell was the other kingdoms stopped killing their envoys

[1998topornik]

As always documentary of fantastic quality!

[Skaitan]

They came from simple huts in the steppe to conquer the world, but in the end the wealth and luxury of the world conquered them.

[Xylobite]

How about the Kazakh khanate? It was also a successor to the Golden Horde and had the Chingizid ruling dynasty too

[SWAT CCCP]

@Sergio Leone and then russia took advantage and the khanates were no more

[Sergio Leone]

Obviously he cut lands fro his children so they wont fight each other but that turned out as a mistake

[cj]

Love this channel and team/staff so much

[Greg Eckley]

Can’t speak highly enough of this channel! The work K&G do is truly amazing! Thank you for feeding my interest and curiosity in history for the last several years!

[Santiago Visci]

As always, amazing, extensive and quality job here

[LutherKrin]

Imagine all of your friends and family just dying at the age of 35. That's rough.

[LutherKrin]

@Bleed Green This is quite true, but still very unfortunate.

[Piyush]

Extensive coverage, keep it up.👍

[BattleHistories]

Great stuff as always. Very inspirational

[irena b Evans]

Most interesting & diverse history, enjoyed the video

[Austin MacDonald]

Man I'd love it if you would do more of the crime syndicate videos I feel like their are still alot you can do.

[Ganaa ganaa]

This channel is amazing 🤩. God job respect 🫡 guys thankyou from Mongolia 🇲🇳🇲🇳🐴🐴🐺🐺

[Anderson Lin]

A little background on the Khan's dismissal of Toghto during the siege of Gao-Yu. As part of the plan to keep conquered Song territory under control, the Yuan didn't build fortifications in southern China, lest they became the stronghold of rebel leaders, resulting in prolonged resistance Rather, the Yuan hoped to resolve things on the field, wipe out any resistance with its superior cavalry, which rebels weren't likely to have in large quantity. This however had two undesirable consequences, 1. A relatively small of rebels can quickly capture large swath of territory and quickly snowball, which would be a problem especially if there are few Mongols in the region and many civilians are sympathetic to the rebels. A good example of this is how Xiang Pulue (項普略) was able to capture much of Jianxi and Zhejiang, even putting Nanjing (one of the very few fortified cities at the time) under siege with only hundreds of starting troops. 2. The Yuan army's siege ability deteriorated considerably. What was special about Gao-Yu was that Zhang Shi-cheng (unlike other rebel leaders) fortified the city really well, having the time to do this as Yuan didn't go for him quick enough. Consequently the Yuan army, despite its massive size, could do little other than to surround the city and patiently wait for it to run out of supplies. That took too long however, long enough to make the emperor become suspicious of Toghto's actual motivation, and decided to recall him.

[Игорь Пак]

To me an empire's Fall is both tragic and fascinating. A disaster I can't look away from.

[Kolossis]

@Geoffrey Charles i mean, i do love the 1500s spanish military despite Spain conquering Philippines

[Rodney Warr]

@derbonuspool alright putin

[Rodney Warr]

Higher Order Reasoning ghenghis as deranged kid?scourge of the earth!

[Dutch Skeptic]

Welcome to the Disaster Tourism Club ;)

[Rodney Warr]

Hahahaha

[haris abbasi]

The golden horde has to be the coolest name for any state any time in history

[Tyman Ung]

Some say that real Mongolian meaning is camp, or similar idea. The Mongol word simply sounded like European words that mean horde, or huge no. of people.

[Lamarr Avery]

They were probably named that for a good reason. They literally probably hoarded a lot of gold.

[Phil T Kaswahl]

Now I wonder how many Khans would have appreciated a Manscaped kit.

[Zelara]

I can see it now, Ghengis Khan advertising it xD.

[Doug Spray]

A Chinese high official said words to the Great Khan :It is a wonderful thing to conquor and create a great Empire but it is not possible to rule it on the back of a horse.

[Tyman Ung]

His name was Yelu Qucai, (Chutsai), + was a N China ex nomad minoriy.

[Bruce Kish]

This episode gives a new meaning to "Wrath of Khan."

[CGT]

The mongols: from steppe nomads to conquerors of a continent and back again in less than a century

[Douglas Brown]

Green McAdams I know that.

[Douglas Brown]

Yeah great accomplishment for a nomadic people to conquered civilized countries like China .

[Sergio Leone]

@senad neslan Mongols were very adaptive, how do you think they conquered Russia back then? its freezing cold + you know 1 in 200 persons there is in fact DNA of a mongol so it is clear fact they dissolved

[senad neslan]

@Sergio Leone one man cant change anything and talk about nations....

[Sergio Leone]

@KlutS and i am mongolian myself

[Vengeance will be mine]

yo this is a masterpiece 👏, I listened and enjoyed this 1 hour long video whipping up food in the kitchen. but hey all king & generals narratives are awesome 👌

[huswsimonbla]

"like all good mongol princes died in his early 30s" damn

[Knifely]

"Gazan, like all good mongol princes, died in his 30s" when you take this out of context, it sounds so savage xD

[Mirko1913]

Could we guess the Mongols series remains the unchallenged favourite of the viewers?

[Shabir Kamran]

Thank you for such a detailed Video on this difficult subject.

[Big Chungus]

Love the length of the vid. Must have taken real time and effort

[叱列平]

Can do a video about Battle of Poyang lake? heard it was the largest naval battle in Asian history

[stever4128]

I think an in-depth look at the rise and fall of the Mughal Empire would make a great series very many epic battles political intrigue and social and religious events. I have long been captivated by Indian history and the Mughals are it's penultimate climax. 🤓😃

[stever4128]

👌

[ام اميمة]

Please do a video of Tang dynasty and its expansion, emperors ,military and economy

[graffProdigy]

I’ve heard of the term “hot blooded” but the Mongols must have had lava running thru their veins... if they weren’t at war with some Nation, they were in conflict with themselves and trying to take eachother out. I can’t imagine the horror it must have been to try and face them? I always thought they took themselves out, till they had no power and got erased from History. I always wondered if the Natives in America came from Mongol lineage and have any Mongolian blood in them?

[StillCant BeSilenced]

@Mohican Theluststar yes, it's theorized they crossed across where Alaska and Russia separated eventually as the continental drifts have us currently going farther apart albeit very slowly. Thousands upon thousands of years EASILY turns a "short jaunt over ice" into an impassable treacherous quest, particularly without a boat. To say nothing of the temperature changes that have occurred over the discussed hundreds of thousands of years.

[Mohican Theluststar]

They have same root and was separated thousands of years ago

[Keith Morrison]

gengis himself was a just man but a rough war general, cant be soft ruling armies like these it was a tough time to live.

[Aibek Shiganbayev]

Great job ! But waiting for highlights video about Kazakh Orda (Kazakhstan today) last kaganate\country where Khans were was elected only Tore dynasty of Descent from Genghis Khan of Chingizkhan till 1847

[Ozan Akyıldız]

If you cover the fall of empires present, they might learn a thing or two and not fall

[Peter Sellers]

One small correction to this video: Genghis is actually pronounced Fenghis.

Please do a series on the Timurid Empire

Interesting! It seems like the main reason the Mongol Empire fell was unstoppable infighting, political instability, and the ecological destruction from the Little Ice Age. It isn't very surprising, as administering such a huge realm presented huge problems with the limited technology of the day. Everything just spun out of control.

Nobody notices you are saying Ching Shi Huan, khublai commissioned the secret history and turned his grandpa to the first emperor of Ching Qin, to legitimate himself.

[OG KUSHSHUSH]

its funny i was playing in as part of the mongol army in crusader kings 3 and the holy roman empire came as we were having civil war in mongol territories and then a big ass army with 50k man came and wipe us out as we only had 25k man power to defend on two fronts and then my bloodline was taken out then it was gameover lol

[Peter Gough]

Fantastic Docu. Some of those Mongol names are great too.

KZbin as teachers are better than public/private school teacher because (like TV productions) they recruit the best historian and intellectuals. It's like the difference between a history professor of Harvard and a history teacher in some small town in Montana. - learn from the masters and the wisemen in your society in your current generation👍

In short, one fastiest rising empires and fastest falling ones to!
