It's incredible what you can accomplish once you take that first steppe.

If some of their Khans lived longer or if the empire stuck together I think we may have to rename Earth to Mongolia

3:35 there's an error here. The Mongols spared cities that surrendered (before being besieged). Cities that resisted faced destruction when captured.

How powerful were the mongols?? Powerful enough to conquer majority asia in few decades

Jin Dynasty: "Surrender!" Mongols: *"No, u"*

Mongol Empire was the ultimate threat to the European/Christian civilization, but also the ultimate saviour of Europe from the Islamic civilization.

Well I'm off to conquer the world as the mongols in civ 5. Stay tuned for more Corrections: At 4:20 the image is of Chatrapati Shivani Maharaj an Indian ruler, we used this as we couldn't find a suitable ruler for the Khwarezmian king At 6:48 King Henry II of Poland didn't die it was a duke Henry II of Silesia

*@**9:59**: The Mongols also introduced Chinese art to the Middle East in the form of stamp or block writing that was adopted as a new kind of Arabic calligraphy.* One can find examples of this "stamp writing" as public art from buildings from Uzbekistan to Syria.

I hear that Age of Mythology soundtrack.

While i love the tune Aquatic Ambiance from DKC2 as much as the next guy, im not sure it fit very well for this narration. Other than that great video! It was very informative and detailed. Thanks for the upload and please keep them coming.

This guy deserves more subs and views ive learned alot

The music that starts at 7:40 is Aquatic Ambiance from Donkey Kong Country.

Such a well-made video. It helped a lot!

Atilla invades Europe, They established themselves in Hungary, hundreds of years later fights against an horde that comes from Asia, ironic isn't it?

Excellent video, i have many books on the Mongols and I like your version of their history.

Im always gonna be amazed from the level of organiuation alreay present at the time, especially with europe etc always picturing outsiders as 'savages'etc lol amazing vid bro

Loving the Donkey Kong and the AOM music. Good vid too

That music at 3:05 is used in a game called Age of Mythology played it so much when it was younger and haven't seen it I so long yet that music instantly made me think of it.

There is a one signficant mistake in 6:48. Poland never had any king named Henry. During age of Mongol conquests Poland was split into a several smaller principalities, just like Kievian Rus. Mongols killed in 1241 the prince Henry II. He was the most powerfull polish prince at this time and would likely become a king later, but he was never crowned as king. Great movie btw

I'm so happy you used civ V in this. I was playing VI while watching. xD

Mongols: Hehe, nobody in the world can defeat us. Vietnamese farmers: *OBSERVE*

Great stuff! Also, love the donkey kong music.

I love the donkey Kong country music in the background. Props dude

First. Good video:)

Amazing video

Wow! Background Music from Donkey Kong Country on SNES! I remember using that for bg music for some videos for school assignments 20 years ago.

Loving the art illustrations,

Very good and honest video.

great video

These are some high quality videos.

You make amazing content! Could you possibly do how powerful where the Russian, French, and Spanish empires next?

How powеrful was thе artillеry only nеxt?

Love how donkey Kong is playing in the background

6:31 Fun Fact that army's main purpose was not conquest, but to scout and weaken the enemies that the actual Mongol army would have to face later.

The chagatai Khanate became the mughals who took over North India later on from Uzbekistan

Why not enter Siberia in the Mongolian Empire? I'm surprised. The Mongolian army invaded Japan to use the Siberian timber. Siberia was entirely owned by the Mongol Empire.

I really liked this video

Wish Ogedei didn't die too early. would be interesting to see them landslide their way to the atlantic, and how europe would've been shaped and changed by them.

I would like to bring to notice the pic of the King Shah Muhammed II at 4:22 is actually King Shivaji the Great of Maratha Dynasty from India.😉

“ The mongols brought destruction to a lot of historical artifacts”... -Kill my ambassedors again... see what happens... 😂😂😂

Eyyy saw some civilization V there, I love that game so much play it very often.

donkey kong 1 or 2 soundtrack (SNES from early 90's) used around 7:40 - underwater track if I'm not mistaken. Golden - well done, childhood restored + mongol history.

So many mongol videos lately it’s like I’ve already seen this 2 times

8:30 To be fair, the Japanese were cheating, they were evidently using the Tri-Force

Ah, gonna start my hun game in total war atilla now but this time I'll finish the job

You actually put a portrait of Shivaji, a Hindu king of India instead of Shah Mohammed ii

Thank you

the addition of the total war: attila music is perfect

It is A testament to their military genius that even today many nations cannot make the same complex manoeuvre warfare they perfected centuries ago. Also the meritocratic system still is enviable

Great video however there is one small mistake , Henry wasn’t properly a king of Poland , he was a prince of Silesia

When is the next South Africa video coming out?

I love you you work so hard take a break if you need

Dude 4:35 u use picture of chattarpati shivaji (shiva ji maharaja) from maratha empire. Please correct it... Shivaji maharaja worship as god in Maharashtra region.

Roman Troop Leader:Attack!! Roman Trrops: *goes to the mongol empire wall and shoots* Mongol Troops: *shields* Mongol Troops: *shoots at the roman troops* Roman Troops: *dies*

hang on... have we got donkey kong country on super nes underwater music from 7.38? love it!

3:30 nice touch :)

I like how you used a song from donkey Kong 2 ❤️

Pretty cool

They awesome.

Showing Civ 5 in the background while playing AoM theme, a unsuspected mix

nice Donkey Kong Country music LOL. Great video tho.

VC3 productions you must make an episode about the age of mythology as you often use its soundtracks lol

If the Mongol army had faced Alexander army, Alexander army wouldn’t even exist in history xD.

I'm early, let's think of a original joke. Nevermind

@4:20 Wrong pic. The pic is that of Shivaji Maharaj of Maratha Empire, India.

Damnit Khwarezmi's Emperor, should've accepted those merchants and ambassadors and save thousands of priceless knowledge, artifact, cities, or even an everlasting pax

Short said: very powerful

*But they died in a tornado*

Good on the Mongols for taking the Humanist idea group.

3:07 this music is from the pc game age of mythology!

The AoM music got me, the nostalgia

I think after so many comments you should edit this video to correct image of shah mohd II. Image at 4.22 is king shivaji from India, who established his maratha kingdom almost 400 years later.. misinforming people should not b aim of any channel

make a vid about maurya concuests

good

you didn't finish the music used credits in the description

Love the donkey kong/Diddy Kong music lol

4:17 you put wrong picture, in the picture he is an indian king shivaji, I think It's a mistake from you.

Gotta love the AoM music

There's a mistake at 4:29 the man u showed in that part was great hindu king Chatrapathi Shivaji great ruler of Maratha Empire in india not a Muslim king in central asia

DO A HOW POWERFUL WAS THE PERSIAN EMPIRE (ACHAEMENID DYNASTY)

The image of the Khwarezmian king is actually an image of Chatrapati Shivani Maharaj of the Maratha empire. You are going to trigger a lot of Indians. Good luck.

Intro music from Total War:Atilla ?

7:50 using that Donkey Kong music again 😉

Goryeo(korea) never surrendered to the Yuan Dynasty(Mongol Empire). It is unequal, but it has only signed a treaty of mutual friendship. The Goryeo and Yan Dynasty were influenced by each other, not unilaterally controlled. King Goryeo had the right to elect the Emperor of the Yuan Dynasty. War between Goryeo (Korea) and Mongolia 1st invasion: Date: August 1231-March 1232 30,000 Mongolian troops invaded. Goryeo succeeded in defending an important castle and bound half of the soldiers, but the capital was besieged, sending the royal family hostages and signing a peace treaty. 2nd invasion Date: August 1232-December 1232 Goryeo moved the palace to the island for war against Mongolia, and Mongolia invaded again. Mongolia could not properly occupy a single castle, and the commander-in-chief was killed in battle and retreated. 3rd invasion Date: July 1235-April 1239 When the Geum Dynasty fell in 1234, it attacked Goryeo. Mongolia lost several defeats, devastating Goryeo territory over four years and inflicting enormous damage. Eventually, in the winter of 1238, the Goryeo court proposed Ganghwa to Mongolia, and Mongolia also withdrew in the spring of 1239 on condition of Goryeo Gojong's entrance. But didn't fulfill the promise 4th invasion Date: July 1247-March 1248 Due to the short period, there was no significant damage, and the Mongolian emperor died and withdrew. 5th invasion Date: July 1253-January 1254 It came down to the central part of the Korean peninsula, but was withdrawn without capturing Chungju, an important adult. 6th invasion Date: July 1254-December 1254 The Mongolian army lost all three major siege battles and withdrew. However, the Mongol army plundered severely and captured 200,000 people, causing great damage. 7th Invasion-Mongolia's Amphibious Operation Date: September 1255-June 1256 The Mongolian army won one battle, but lost six battles and withdrew. 8th invasion Date: May 1257-October 1257 Mongolia lost two battles and withdrew when Goryeo promised friendship. 9th invasion Date: April 1258-March 1259 Mongolia lost two battles and withdrew when Goryeo promised friendship. 1259 Goryeo Prince meets and discusses with Kublai, and Goryeo and Mongolia conclude a peace agreement, although they are unequal. Mongolia invaded 9 times, but each time they were defeated, they knew it was impossible to conquer Goryeo. Mongolian emperor Kublai made six promises and said he would not interfere with Goryeo. The clothes and hats worn on the head do not need to be changed according to the customs of Goryeo Envoys are banned from anything other than those sent by the Yuan court. Return to the capital can be adjusted in time at Goryeojeong. The troops withdrew in the fall. All of the Official from Mongolia are withdrawn. Those who volunteered to stay in Mongolia are investigated and returned. After the discussion, Prince Goryeo asked Kublai to become son-in-law. Afterwards, the kings of Goryeo became son-in-law of Kublai and his descendants and had the right to elect the emperor. The Mongolian emperor was able to replace the son-in-law, King Goryeo, but due to Kublai's promise, he could not interfere with anything in Goryeo. Mongolia could not occupy Goryeo and only signed a peace treaty. The Mongol emperor was able to replace the king of Goryeo, but he could not easily replace the king of Goryeo, an important member of the imperial family.

Shout out to that donkey Kong aquatic ambience theme some 8 minutes in I see u

4:35 why portray that shah with the pic of the founder of maratha hindu empire Shivaji who came centuries later to power?

Use the Calvery unit marker not the infantry one

You use a hindu emperor picture named Shivaji Maharaj in 4:25 min. Plz correct because he is not Muslim king of Persian Empire but fight against Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb in 17th century AD

How was the size of Army of Mongols and khwarzamid empire at the time of the fighting with each other?

Im not sure we can say that Mongols established a State in its conventional form. They ruled by the fear and terror and the power of military, or, adopted the administration of the people who they conquered. You cant compare Mongols with Roman Empire, in any sense.

last song please😚

the donkey kong country music here caught me off guard a bit

Where have I heard this music before

7:40 Places were you don't expect Donkey Kong Music

Henrick II was only Polish prince, not king. It does not change the fact that this document is very good.

Enough powerful to battle Pacific rim to Mediterran, Germany to Japan

Anyone notice the music from Donkey Kong on SNES throughout the video?

6:13 small error here, Ogedei didn't found karakorum, genghis khan did, but it was Ogedei who developed it.

Back round music sounds like a donkey Kong country level. In the mine with the spider iirc.

wow music :D
