Great animation by the way. But you're showing the Indian sultans wearing Mughal dresses. The Mughals (who were Indian Mongols) did not arrive in India until 1526. In 8:45 I can see the Red Fort of Delhi which is a Mughal monument, not a monument of the Delhi Sultanate. The burning from the Red Fort scene in 16:36 would better fit in a video about the 1857 Sepoy mutiny.

City of Delhi is dotted with number of monuments of Delhi Sultanate era which is said to have contained mongol mass graves within its foundations. Example there is fort named Siri built by Sultan Alauddin Khilji it was built as a military cantonment by Sultan and later sultan would shift his personal residence there. It is said that heads of Mongol prisoners of war were burried within its foundations also word Siri translates to head in hindustani language. Similarly there is tower named chor minar(translated as thief tower) at Hauz khas which is said to have been spot where criminals were executed it is said that mongol POWs heads were buried within its foundations and were plastered between its bricks in the walls of tower.

The warriors in which the Mongols suffered the most severe defeats were the Mamluks. The Mongols thought they were relieved after defeating Jalal al-Din Mangburni after a tough struggle. But his predecessor Qutuz and Qutuz's friends (Baibars, Qalavun) completed the work that Al-Din had left unfinished. At the same time the Khiljis, who supported Jalal al-Din in the Battle of Parwan, defeated the Mongols. The Mongols won against Jalal al-Din but it was their defeat.

Isn’t the the first time India fought off a nomadic invasion, centuries before this, during the days of Rome, Alchon Huns invaded northern India which at the time was ruled by the Gupta empire though it was in a sate of decline as rebellion and the breakaway of now independent vassals. The huns devastated the land, destroying many cities and ancient Buddha shrines, the Gupta answered the call for help and with their former vassals now allies, drove out the huns. This was sadly the final epic of the Gupta empire as they would later fall to outside threats and internal struggle.

As an Indian, Thank you for the video. The invasions from North West into India have always been disastrous. However, only the Islamic Invasions are known today. The Mongol invasions and the Pre Islamic invasions ( such as Hunas ) are largely forgotten. So your video in some ways was a historical reminder.

The Mongol and Huna invasions of North West India were only temporary. They did destroy many cities and temples and cause wide spread grief but this did not last long. Moreover, their invasions would not lead to any cultural change or colonisation in North West India. Dharmik people would survive and continue to thrive. However, the Turkic invasions were far more brutal and had a much more permanent effect on the entirety of India

Alauddin Khalji was one of the greatest of the Muslim sovereigns of the pre-Mughal times. He possessed the rare qualities of a born military general and a great administrator. Dr. Ishwari Prasad observes - “He possessed the qualities of a born military commander and civil administrator a rare combination in medieval history.” (1) A Born Military Leader. Alauddin was a great military general. He dreamt to become another Alexander. When he ascended the throne, India was being threatened again and again by the Mongols who had become a constant error for the people. They had no regard for any caste, creed, or religion and wherever they went they carried fire and sword and killed thousands of people. The Sultan maintained a strong army and punished the Mongols so arable that they dared not attack India again. He greatly extended the frontiers of his empire. He conquered most of the Hindu states in the north and overran the whole of the south. All his military exploits were crowned with success. (2) A great Administrator. Alauddin Khalji was not only a great military leader but also a great administrator. He crushed the power of the nobility to bring about peace in the country. He confiscates their excess amount of money and property and put a ban on their social gatherings and prohibited them to use wine. He himself set the example by breaking all the cups and glasses and emptying the jars of wine into the streets. He did not allow the llamas to interfere in the political affairs of the state. He is credited to have introduced various reforms on the land revenue and military departments. His control of the markets is regarded as one of the marvels of medieval statesmanship. There prevailed complete peace and tranquillity during his reign. Faust remarks - “So long as Alauddin was alive, he executed justice with such vigor that robbery and theft formerly so common were not heard of in the land. The travelers slept secure on the highway and the merchants carried on their commodities in safety.” (3) A man of sense and Determination. Though quite illiterate Alauddin was a very sensible man and he possessed great qualities of head and heart. There was one great quality in him, if ever he was in the wrong he would at once admit his mistake and reform himself accordingly. When the Qazi Ala-ul-Mulk advised him to give up the. the idea of founding a new religion and conquering the whole world, he fully realized his mistake and corrected himself accordingly. Had he been obstinate like Mohammad Tughlaq, he would have completely lost in his ideal dreams and utterly ruined himself. Alauddin was a man of iron will. In 1299 when about two lakh Mongols appeared on the very gates of Delhi most of his nobles requested him to make peace with them and save the country from ruin. But the Sultan said, “No, come what may tomorrow I must march into the battlefield.” Whatever Alauddin thought of doing a particular thing, he did it with all his force and determination and achieved wonders. Lanepool has justly remarked, ‘Alauddin was a man of sense and determination who knew his own mind, saw the necessities of the situation met them with his methods and carried out those methods with persistence.’ Some of his battle victories: Alauddin Khalji's raid on Bhilsa (1293) Alauddin Khalji's conquest of Multan (1296) Alauddin Khalji's raid on Devagiri (1296) Akat Khan's rebellion (1299) Rebellion of Malik Umar and Mangu Khan (1299) Rebellion of Haji Maula (1299) Battle of Kili (1299) Alauddin Khalji's conquest of Gujarat (1299) Alauddin Khalji's conquest of Ranthambore (1301) Mongol invasion of India (1303) Siege of Chittorgarh (1303) Alauddin Khalji's conquest of Gujarat (1304) Alauddin Khalji's conquest of Malwa (1305) Battle of Amroha (1305) Siege of Siwana (1308) Alauddin Khalji's conquest of Devagiri (1308) Alauddin Khalji's conquest of Jalore (1311) 1311 massacre of Mongols in the Delhi Sultanate (1311)

Before the rise of Genghis Khan Mongolic was spreading at westward and absorbing Turkic speakers (Janhunen, 2008). During the Mongol expansion, Turkic speakers whose tribes and states had been incorporated into the Mongol empire were so much more numerous than Mongols that, although Mongolian was the language of command, it was Turkic rather than Mongolic speech that was chiefly spread across Central Asia and the central and western steppe.

​ Malik Kafur, who was a prominent Punjabi military commander during the reign of Alauddin Khilji, the second ruler of the Khilji dynasty in India. Malik Kafur was originally from the town of Karra in modern-day Multan, Punjab. He started his career as a slave in the household of a Hindu merchant, but was later bought by Alauddin Khilji and became one of his most trusted advisors and generals. Under Alauddin Khilji, Malik Kafur led several military campaigns, most notably against the Yadava dynasty in the Deccan region of southern India. He was known for his bravery and strategic skills in battle, and was instrumental in the conquest of the wealthy city of Devagiri (modern-day Daulatabad). Malik Kafur was also involved in the political and administrative affairs of the Khilji court, and was appointed as the governor of several provinces, including Gujarat and Malwa. However, Malik Kafur's rise to power and wealth also made him many enemies, including members of the Khilji dynasty itself.

The name Mongol appeared first in the eighth-century Chinese records of the Tang dynasty, but only resurfaced in the eleventh century during the rule of the Khitan. At first, it was applied to some small and insignificant nomadic tribes in the area of the Onon River. In the thirteenth century, however, the name Mongol grew into an umbrella term for a large group of Mongolic and Turkic tribes united under the rule of Genghis Khan. It is not clear what the Mongols called themselves in their own languages. In fact, the specific origin of the Mongolic languages is unclear. Some linguists have proposed a link to languages like Tungusic and Turkic, which are often included alongside Mongolic in a hypothetical language group called “Altaic languages”, but the evidence for this is rather weak.

Evidence for calling medieval mongols as turkic people a lot. People just sleep on some nations and don't include Golden Horde, Moghulistan and Ilkhanate when learning so called Mongols history. All they study is Khublai dinasty and that's it. No one can even properly count and pronounce tribes of medieval mongols. But if they start learning those tribes they immediately come across Kazakhs, because unlike others turkic nations kazakhs still keep a genealogy traceability.

Probably not much apart from further devastation and shallow vassal-making. In the Eastern part, several Rus principalities were destroyed and those who surrendered were made vassals. And, some years later, those who survived just substituted the ones who were destroyed and then thrived. Maybe Hungary would've been destroyed and later on Bohemia taken its place. Maybe the Teutonic Order would have survived further on at the expense of Lithuania. Or maybe a commited alliance could've had resisted them and driven the Mongols off. Who knows. But Europe was quite different from Persia, the Kwarazmian Empire or the immense and endless stepe. Conquering Europe means taking down a thousand castles and fortified cities while being 7000km away from your mainland. And even if they managed to "conquer" a good chunk of it, you just can't maintain such an empire united while having your capital at Karakorum. Most of the Mongol Khans were a bunch of obese drunkards, so Ogedei was going to die sooner or later. And his empire, broken as it was.

One of the reason of not attacking India at that time was that he did not have enough force to meet a fresh and powerful army of Sultan of Dehli. Gengez Khan fought the last brutal battle with joint forces of Khawarzim shah and Afghan tribes which destroyed a large part of mongol army and suffering a crushing defeat. Later Gengez Khan attacked Khwarzim Shah and destroyed his forces at the cost of heavy losses which make them unable to continue his campaigns in India. This fact was proven later when mongols attacked India and suffered crushing defeats in the hands of Alauddin Khilji Sultan of Dehli. In fact mongol emire disintegrated as soon as they started fighting with Mamluks of Egypt and Mamluks of Dehli who inflicted crushing defeats on mongols resulting in disintegration of mongol empire. Gengez refrained from attacking India which was right decion otherwise they would have lost their power very early.

The Delhi Sultanate was of Turko-Afghan origin. Ghorids and Lodhis were Afghans whereas Tughlaqs or Mamluks were Turks. Indians were mere spectators during that war watching the theatre from the top of the trees.

Although the Turks often comprised the bulk of the Mongol army as well as the bulk of armies opposed to the Mongols, throughout the domains of the Mongol Empire there was a diffusion of military technology, which has already bee and also ethnic groups. In addition to the Mongols and Turks, other ethnicities served in the Mongol military machine and found themselves distant from home. May, T.M., 2012. The Mongol conquests in world history, London: Reaktion Books. p.222

​ Malik Kafur, who was a prominent Punjabi military commander during the reign of Alauddin Khilji, the second ruler of the Khilji dynasty in India. Malik Kafur was originally from the town of Karra in modern-day Multan, Punjab. He started his career as a slave in the household of a Hindu merchant, but was later bought by Alauddin Khilji and became one of his most trusted advisors and generals. Under Alauddin Khilji, Malik Kafur led several military campaigns, most notably against the Yadava dynasty in the Deccan region of southern India. He was known for his bravery and strategic skills in battle, and was instrumental in the conquest of the wealthy city of Devagiri (modern-day Daulatabad). Malik Kafur was also involved in the political and administrative affairs of the Khilji court, and was appointed as the governor of several provinces, including Gujarat and Malwa. However, Malik Kafur's rise to power and wealth also made him many enemies, including members of the Khilji dynasty itself. He was eventually assassinated in 1316, following the death of Alauddin Khilji Malik Kafur was originally from the town of Karra in modern-day Multan, Punjab.

Read your own sentences, "4 nation" .. Turk is not a nation but a race. Delhi sultanates ruled Delhi modern day India. So it's India that defeated them. In the 1965 war with Pakistan, President and head of the armed forces of India was Pashton. By that logic Pashtun has defeated Pakistan or India? Similarly the head of the armed forces in 1971 was a Persian. Try to learn the basics between race, and nation.
