There is a 'virtue' called "mertlik or erlik/er kün" in steppe. Its translated "manhood or bravery" but its not compare to describe this term exacly. To explain, basicly "mertlik, erlik/er kün" says "if someone dont tell lie and speak truths, then he is a "mert guy or er kişi/er khün" and you cant kill or punish him like a dishonored or guilty man. This is so important virtue among steppe people. You can say "No" even to Khan, if its true. There is a saying in Mongolian, Turkish and Tungusic "be an 'er kişi/khün' and demand my live as a sacrifice for you". This culture was founded on this code.

Great video, as usual! Just a quick note from the characters around 2:45 Historically, there is a distinction between pre-imperial schools of thought 家 (jia), as opposed to a broader "learning/teachings" 教 (jiao). As an example, for Taoism, the "School of the Dao" 道家 (daojia) refers to pre-imperial texts such as the Laozi, Zhuangzi and so on. But if one wants to refer to a broader "Taoist Teachings", including imperial and contemporary texts and practices, then it is written 道教 (daojiao). Same goes for Confucianism: the "School of Academics" 儒家 (rujia) for pre-imperial texts (Confucius, Mencius, Xunzi, etc.) and the "Teachings of the Academics" 儒教 (rujiao) for the entirety (+ Sima Qian, Dong Zhongshu, Zhu Xi, etc.) As Buddhism only arrived in China during the imperial Han Dynasty, it is preferable to write Buddhism as "Buddhist Teachings" (佛教 fojiao). The stance "School of the Buddha" (佛家 fojia) can have a political connotation, as in stating that Buddhism is historially on equal grounds to the other pre-imperial schools (家 jia), and as such is as legitimate to the Chinese cultural and intellectual tradition. Such legitimation tactic based on (historically-inacurate) ancient relevance was used by many religious sects whose cosmological elements or teachings were inspired by buddhist elements. (Such "sectarian tradition" can also be seen in some New Ageish Chinese religious movements from the 1980-90's). (I've also seen 家 jia and 教 jiao being used to differentiate intellectual from religious thought, but quite frankly such separation is alien to how these terms were used. Russell Kirkland has discussed this conceptual aspect regarding Taoism.)

EDIT: However, after watching through this documentary, I recalled the conflicts between Taoists and Buddhists during the reign of Kublai Khan and how differently they are often depicted in fiction. Ever noticed how Taoists are usually wizards (although there are Taoist warriors too) while Buddhists are usually warriors?

Those who have read the Condor Trilogy will probably be familiar with Qiu Chuji and the Quanzhen Sect.

Do you plan on making a video about the Manicheans during the Mongol and Yuan Empires?

Does anyone know if Kings&Generals has done a video on the mongol belief systems? I can't see a video on that topic in their playlist.

"The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed - the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress. The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people. And so long as men die, liberty will never perish" - Charlie Chaplin, The Great Dictator
