You mad lads actually did it. The Seljuks are my favorite topic of the Medieval Age. Their descentralization of the Great Seljuk Empire (1092 - 1100's) following Malik Shah's death is one of the most fascinating periods in history. The rise of the Atabegs and Emirs all ruling quasi-independent realms under the nominal suzerainty of the Great Seljuk Sultan (Rûm being the exception given they created their own Sultanate) quickly destabilize the whole Near East until the Rise of Saladin and the Ayyubid Sultanate. Giving rise to characters like Tutush, Kerbogah, Tzachas, Il-Ghazi, Suleiman of Rûm, Imad ad-Din Zengi and his famous son Nûr ad-Dín Zengi among many others. Like the northen realms of the Danishmends, Saltukids and Mengjuks etc. Also the Expansions of Manuil Komnenos during the 1160's and 1170's cemented the end of formal rule of the Great Seljuks in upper Syria and Eastern Cilicia. Great video guys! You covered everything in a well summarized manner and yet so well done.

Great video as always, but there is a small mistake which most history RU-vidrs and even some academicians seem to make: Seljuks weren't an Oghuz tribe, they were a dynasty. The tribe Seljuk family belonged to is named "Qiniq Tribe" (Kınık Boyu in Istanbul Turkish and Qınıq Boyu in Azerbaijani Turkish) just like how Ottoman dynasty belonged to the Qayi (Kayı) Tribe. Many people call the subjects of those dynasties "Ottoman Turks" or "Seljuk Turks", but this is as if someone called Austrians "Habsburg Germans" or Prussians "Hohenzollern Germans".

@@Raidon8537 There was no "Turkish-Azerbaijani-Turkmen" division back then. It's a pretty modern thing. Back then, words "Turk" and "Turkmen" had almost the same meaning, while the word "Azerbaijani" didn't even mean anything. Debating that if the Seljuks were Turkmen, Turkish or Azerbaijani is the same as debating that if the Kievan Rus' were Russian, Ukrainian or Belarussian. Seljuks were Oghuz. And Oghuz people later seperated into Turkish, Azerbaijani, Turkmen, etc. The important thing is that Seljuks are an indispensable part of the national identities of all three of these modern nations. They are Turkish, Azerbaijani and Turkmen at the same time. And I included the Azerbaijani and Istanbul Turkish versions of the words for extra info. I didn't include Turkmen versions, because I don't know Turkmen.

@brainblox5629 2 года назад

The historical meaning of Turkmen isn't the same as modern Turkmen. Turkmen in historical terms was mostly used for Turks who became Muslims and abandoned the traditional faith of Tengri. The Seljuqs were the quasi founders of Turkmens, since they started the mass conversion of Turks to Islam. This often came together with intermixing with Iranic muslims, thus Turkmens becoming more Persian/West Asian looking than the average Tengrist Asian Turk. But still East Asian looking, "resembling still a Turk" = "Türkmen", "like a Turk". These Turkmens spawned the Ottomans -> Turkey and modern Turkmenistan, also a few dynasties in Iran etc.

They were also being raided By Pechenegs and Oghuz Turks at the same time in the Balkans while Normans were invading their territory in Italy. Too many new enemies at one time and not enough forces. Anthony Kaldellis makes an excellent point in his book, Streams of Gold, Rivers of Blood: The Rise and Fall of Byzantium, 955AD to the First Crusade, that the Byzantine Army showed no sign of actual decline up to Manzikert. Only suffering a temporary stagnation under the Reign Of Constantine Doukas who was indeed the worst Post Basil Emperor but quickly showing under Romanos Diogenes that it was still combat ready and experienced in its victories against the Turks in Syria before Manzikert.

3:00 The Seldjuks were not a tribe of the Oghuz Turks. They were a dynasty, leading the Kinik tribe (one of 24 Oghuzic tribes) for a specific amount of time. Just as the Ottomans were not a tribe themselves at the early times of its history but a dynasty that claimed to be of Kayi (another Oghuzic tribe) origin.

@HorvardPasha 2 года назад

@علي ياسر Not in the case of Turkic Dynasties. Ottoman Sultans often married their own "slaves" (not the most accurate term for it but the nearest). Ottoman princesses were married off to Pashas mostly (who themselves were mostly children of regular peasants in the Balkans, which were taken away from their families and got educated in the Palace school "Enderun", because potential of intelligence was seen in them) to secure their loyalty to the ruling Imperial dynasty. The Ottomans didn't imply the concept of Feudalism, hence there was no "nobility" in the court. Most Anatolian governours were the descendents of the former ruling dynasties of the local Beyliks who ruled there before the Ottomans came (Karamans, Germiyans, etc.). So no, Turkic dynasties don't marry with nobles since there is no nobility in Turkic society, especially in nomadic Turkic cultures.

@HorvardPasha 2 года назад

@@hockeyh There is no ethicity called "Ottoman Turks". There is the royal family of the House of Osman -> Ottoman dynasty, which ruled in the course of history over 72 different ethnicities. The Ottoman family was ethnically and linguistically Oghuz Turkic. The Oghuz Turks are one branch of 4 different main Turkic branches (Kipchak, Karluk and Sibir are the other branches). They were divided in 24 different tribes. The Seldjuk dynasty was part of the Kınık tribe. The Ottoman dynasty was (according to later Ottoman historians such as Ashikpashazade) part of the Kayı tribe. The Ottomans ruled over many Oghuzic tribes, but not all. Such as the Seldjuks ruled over most of the Oghuz tribes but again, not all. The Ottoman Empire is the successor state of the Seldjuk Empire. But both dynasties are not related by blood. And they also don't originate from the same tribe. Both are Oghuz Turkic families, and that's all they share with eachother.

14:12 At this point our story sinks up really badly. But the most acceptable scenario is the death of Süleyman Şah against Artuk Bey and Tutuş. His sons, Kılıçarslan (in the next episode) and Kulan Arslan taken prisoners and was sent to capital Rey and stood there until the death of Melikşah. Some sources claim that they have poisoned Melikşah, while modern historians say Melikşah got poisoned from his wife because she was afraid of Kılıçarslan taking the entire Selçuk Empire. Kılıçarslan was coming from Arslan Yabgu>Kutalmış>Süleymanşah and he was the rightful heir to the throne and Tuğrul Bey was going to give the throne back to Kutalmış if Alparslan wouldn't coup and take it for himself. So wife of Melikşah poisoned him and said that Kılıçarslan did it so her 5 year old son Muhammed Tapar can get the throne. And this resulted the collapse of the empire. Kılıçarslan fled the city with his brother and came back to anatolia, where the Crusades was started immediately after. It is worth to mention that he was very young while all these happening (Around 16 years old). Despite his young age, he was cunning like his father and although he couldn't repel, he starved out the crowded Crusaders led by Bohemond. He asked for help from Berkyaruk(son of Melikşah) but Berkyaruk laughed "No nation can do this to the Turks" and refused. Kılıçarslan destroyed the entire Crusader army sent in 1101. His life must be told in a 10 season long TV Series.

Suljuk Vizier Nizam'-ul-Mulk's "educational reforms" played a huge part in he extinguishing of science and rationality in the Muslim world. As you can see, this was a time when Shia/Sunni schism and fervor was at its peak. Creating an environment where everyone was inquisitioning any mindset that didn't immediately comply unconditionally. And as you can see, not much science came out of the Muslim world after this period. Before Nizam's reforms, education was kind of a personal thing. Or not centrally controlled. People learned things they felt mattered. And education was funded by merchant and Bourgeoisie After Nizam's reforms, we see the emergence of the Mullah/Molvi/Ulema class. Education, curriculum and degrees became strictly controlled. And state became the primary sponsor of education. And because of the extractive Iqta system, merchants/bourgeoisie became slowly less and less influential.

IE: 1- The Ashina clan, who established the Göktürk khanate used the supraethnonym "Turk", for every single Oghuz and Tatar group(excluding any non-Turkic speaking nomads, exclusively for Turkic speaking nomads back then), obviously on linguistic and cultural basis in 7th century CE. 2- Cumans refused the letters of Osman and Orhan Bey's(second ruler of the Ottomans) for alliance who stated that "both of Ottomans and them were Turks who should join forces against Byzantines"; Most striking was Cumans replying back with a single liner letter: "You are not Turks, but Byzantine wannabees who don't seek brothers but dogs", referring to Ottoman rulers' Byzantine matrilineal descent(this is even nowadays debated tho). Sorta quite "racist" for 13th century standards, even for modern standards. 3-Tamerlane belittled Bayezid citing that "he did not resembled his ancestors, and betrayed their glorious ancestors by aspiring to be Persians and Byzantines" in his letters. However, his first letters were written in Persian purple prose. So the Ottomans belittled him back citing that at least they "wrote in the language of Turks but Tamerlane, in Persian".

i love the First Crusade! it was an operation that was doomed to failure even before a step was made. yet managed to complete its objectives! there was hubris, arrogance, ignorance, naivety, overconfidence, innocence. there was thirst there was starvation. a lack of understanding of people and tactics of their enemy. there was distrust and backstabbing of allies and hatred amongst themselves which set up a dangerous lack of communication almost bringing disaster at every turn! there too was bravery and commitment to their God. a dogged resilience to get to the Holy Land to take back Jerusalem. If it was a movie it would be too far fetched for anyone to get their head round!

@badmacdonald 2 года назад

an appendage. it could also be used as a symbol which would be very dangerous in todays climate! revisionists are rampant at this point in history! read on and read as much as you can because it teaches us that if you believe, even when you re human you can achieve. There is no revisionist that can dispute this about the First Crusade!

Very good video as usual didn't watch it but so far perhaps all your videos were interesting so I can say its good without watching. However I would really like if you discuss WWI it is a very crucial war. Continueing Napoleonic wars would be good too. But still your videos are good and these are just suggestions. The world history doesn't consists of WWI and Napoleonic wars and you seem to know that because you make videos and a huge variety of topics.Keep it up :)
