@Dark Fire and yet later on a large part of them became Muslim

@Dark Fire Mongols: *Literally ends islamic golden age* Muslim Mongols: We were bad now we are good

@Dark Fire Yet the Steppe nomads who converted to Islam later did similar atrocities, making mountains of heads in India and Pakistan(Ghoris, Temur Lane, early Mughals) etc, destroyed libraries and temples, paving the steps of their mosques with Hindu idols. I doubt its about religion ,it is a brutal way of life that makes such tribes dangerous to civilizations and it only needs a spark like change of religion, another tribe migrating or a natural disaster.

@Dark Fire Well,they destroyed anyone or anything in the way, nothing personal against Muslims. Later both Borjigin and Barlas clan became Muslims.

I see what you did here! 🤣👍

@Dark Fire he had religion, just like most Mongols then he believed in the spirits of the mountain, trees and animals etc. They had Shamans who would bang drums to summon the spirits for special events and Genghis used to go to his special place in the mountains to talk with them when he was unsure what to do.

@Dark Fire of course a particular system of faith and worship. Or the belief in and worship of a superhuman controlling power, especially a personal God or God's. Which is exactly what they thought. That the spirits of nature were supernatural and so the worshiped them and had faith that they could help them. Shamanism is a religion always has been. Just because it's not the organised religion that you recognise doesn't make it any less valid. The earth, the mountains were gods or has gods living in them. It appears you don't.

@Dark Fire here the definition of Shamanism Shamanism is a religious practice that involves a practitioner who is believed to interact with a spirit world through altered states of consciousness, such as trance. The goal of this is usually to direct these spirits or spiritual energies into the physical world, for healing or another purpose. And Mongolian shamanism (Mongolian: Бөө мөргөл - Böö mörgöl), more broadly called the Mongolian folk religion,[1] or occasionally Tengerism,[2][note 2] refers to the animistic and shamanic ethnic religion that has been practiced in Mongolia and its surrounding areas (including Buryatia and Inner Mongolia) at least since the age of recorded history. In the earliest known stages it was intricately tied to all other aspects of social life and to the tribal organization of Mongolian society. Oh and Genghis was a shaman himself as well as a warrior. So very very much a religious person with a religion he practiced. He regularly asked the mountain spirits what actions he should take when he wasn't sure. Anything else?

WE ARE THE EXCEPTION

true, we got mistaken for being tatars too before romani

@Hernando Malinche all were called tatars, however it maybe fits in with greek is a coinsident probaly but that dont mean he has right that european branded all steppe nomads as 'tartars' even if not even same kind as they thought of them first and for most cause fear of invaders so they were pretty much suspecisus of any nomadic groups like allways has before too...we and jews are the most hate peoples in world just of being born to most haha

​@Hernando Malinche Tatar was the name of an actual major tribal empire. The original poster was wrong. There actually was a Tatar Empire in the steppes just before Mongols showed up. Alans and Slavs knew of the Tatars from direct contact and they lived east of the Caucasus, so that's how far the Tatar empire reached westwards. That's also how the name Tatar came to Eastern Europe and later spread to all of Europe as a whole. The Eastern Alan confederacy was crushed by Jebe and Subetei, although the Alans mostly had themselves to blame for being a disorganized bunch too happy to backstab each other. They ran west to Russia and Lithuania and told the Western Alans that, hey, a bunch of Tatars just kicked our asses and they might be coming for yours next. The Western Alans were more organized and less treacherous, so they informed the Hungarians and Lithuanians what their Eastern cousins told them and allied with those states to prepare for the coming of the "Tatars". The Hungarians informed the next-door Austrians that a Tatar invasion was coming, the Austrians informed the Pope, and Louis IX (the Saint) came up with the Tartarus thing when he exhorted his mommy to help the poor fellow Christians of Hungary after hearing the Pope's plea for help. That said, the Tatar empire was not as well organized as the previous steppe empires. The Turk and Rouran Khaganates had actual administrative bureaucracy copied from China and the Uighurs actually had cities, a written language, and religious hierarchy for a while. The Tatars had none of this. All they had was size. The reason Mongols were known by the name Tatar in many places was because, even after the Mongols destroyed the core tribes of the Tatar Empire and the remaining Tatars submitted to Genghis' rule, there were always more Tatars than actual Mongols in the Mongol Empire. They were simply the biggest tribal grouping in the steppes at the time. According to the Secret History Genghis allotted half the Tatars to his brother Khazar and split the remaining half between Jochi and Tolui. So when the Jochid house invaded Europe, three quarters of the Tatars came with them (because Khazar's kids joined Batu) and formed the single biggest tribal contingent of the Mongol army in Europe. That's why their name stuck in Europe. The Tatars also formed the bulk of the "Mongol" contingent of the mostly-Chinese armies that invaded Vietnam and later Java because Khubilai inherited the entire quarter of the Tatar nation that was allotted to his father Tolui.

I thought Volga Bolgars call themselves Tatar now, Mongols are different people. Didn't the Japanese called the Mongols different? If I'm not mistaken they actually able to differentiate these nomads like Jurchens and Mongols.

@@MbisonBalrog thats how the world is, there is not a people except they were made subservient before. usually they also were the best in their region at some point too. remember the celts once controlled most of europe, from spain to ukraine, until they were destroyed by decades of war and occupation. Every group lost at some point, this is a fact of life. Who is strong today could be weak tomorrow and vice versa.

@@niazjaffar7022 timur had some kind of problem with georgia my guy, he kept trolling this tiny nation close to russia for no reason. Any time he had a problem he lifted his spirits by burning georgia again. Also baybars (of the mamlukes) was based.

Undeniably a good thing. However, you can't cut around that after you consider how much raping,pillaging, slaughter, and enslavement went on for the little people they conquered.

@@katydid5088 but if you look past some rather notorious events - it weren't really more brutal than when "little people" conquered each other.

@@katydid5088 History is full of raping, pillaging, slaughter, and enslavement. From the plains of the Americas to the seas of Indochina to the mountains of Europe and everywhere in between. Thankfully we live in one of the most peaceful eras of human history, when you take into account how dangerous life in the past was.

Only thing I find sad is that Turkey is now muslim instead of tengriist. And I say this as a Turkish person.

They should do the whole region with a focus on the indigenous tribes and the mixed populations. Beside the Zulu, the Basotho and how they managed to adapt, breed horses, emulate white warfare, set up domestic production of gunpowder and keep their independence (sort of) needs to be told. How mixed populations migrated out of the cape colony to escape racism and set up their own societies is also way to overlooked.
