Proto Ukranians??? Really??? That's a thing??? Cos I thought at that time they called themselves Russians and were part of the Kievan Rus.XD In fact, didn't the defeat to the Mongols happen under the Rurik dynasty whose last known descendant/ruler was Feodor I of RUSSIA aka Fyodor I Ivanovich, a RUSSIAN czar during the 16th century???

@high4702 Год назад

There was no Kyivan Rus, this name was created in 19th century. If you will read chronicles deeply you will see that the word “Rus” was mostly used like ethnonym but not like territory. Mostly by the word “Rus” people mean orthodox people. There was also term “роусьска земля” that means territory of over Dnipro lands, Volyn, Kyiv, Chernihiv, Pereyaslav and Smolensk. Also you will see that people wrote: “I am going from Novhorod to Rus” or “I am going from Suzdal to Rus”

@tremedar Год назад

I think the Kievan Rus were one part of what could be called proto-Ukrainian. Do NONE of you people criticizing this choice of words understand what proto means?

@paulclifton9488 Год назад

Anyone who has played Total War Medieval 1 knows that the Ukrainians/Rus should have built the biggest fortresses possible in Volga-Bulgaria and the Chimera and filled it with a ton of Halberdiers with gold armour and gold weaponry (but not enough to be starved out in a few turns). If they did this the Mongols would have all stood in archery range of the walls and sent units one by one to hit the gates with swords whilst standing under pouring boiling oil until the swords eventually made the portcullis suddenly disappear. Then they would be all killed in turn by the Halberdiers. Just talking from personal experience.

@@Kwerd you do realize that Ukraine this time had several groups besides the Kievan Rus. Your example of the Genoese and others from the italian peninsula cant really be compared to the Kievan Rus. They weren't proto-italians, they were already italians. That's way i said "Ruthenians", as then we know we're talking about the Rus that would, throughout centuries, become the Ukrainians. The Portuguese were once the same as the Galicians (in Galiza, Spain, both descendents of the inhabitants in the Northwest corner of Iberia), same language, culture and costumes. But through historical events, as the roman conquest of Iberia and the consequent divide of the peninsula with the roman provinces of Lusitania and Gallaecia, and later disputes between aristocratic families, churches and others, the soon to be Portuguese rebelled from Galiza and expanded south. Is somewhat similar with the Kievan Rus... A group that would later split between the Ukranians and Russians (as well the Belarusians... The almost always forgotten brother of the 3).

Dear Kings and Generals, A massive earthquake hit Turkey and northern Syria. There are many subscriber of yours in these country as you know. Also the situation in the area extremely dire. We need all possible help and prayer for the victims. Please mention about earthquake in your upcoming video. I humbly recommend AHBAP Foundation for any possible charity. Thank you all.

Why don't you ask Russia for help?? 🤔 I don't think the US should help Turkey until they give up there S-400 systems and accept Sweden into NATO and Syria under Assad should be left to their fate see how quick their Russian overlords come...

There a lot of inaccurate information in this video. For example, Battle of Kalka river wasn't just between Halych-Volynia principality and Mongols. There were much more knyaz of other Rus principalities, who participated in battle. For example, the head of Rus coalition was Mstislav the Old, who was slain in battle.

After the fall of the Sassanids ( who fought off the Khazarians during their entire existence) Khazarians became a headache for the Rus people around the Caspian sea . Interestingly the " Rus vikings" were the ones who destroyed the khazar khaganat once and for all .

@Technocratos90 Год назад

Actually Khazars were very advanced nation, with pretty well developed trade. The city of Sarkel was big and flourishing city, before Rus razed it to the ground.

@Light_spot_ Год назад

@Technocratos That's not what their neighbors believed,.... in fact ,they were considered so " uncivilized ", that th Sassanid Persians built the Derbent Fortifications at the northwestern Caucasian borders of Persia just in order to prevent them from plundering the villiges , ....The Russ Vikings had same problems with the khazars at their mutual southern borders . They were causing same troubles for the Arab Islamic khalifat that replaced the Sassanid empire . We even have Roman reports of how khazarian influential people caused corruption in the Roman/ Catholic church.

@valdaniels4078 Год назад

I don't understand butthurt reactions in the comments over calling Ruthenians under the king Danylo proto-Ukrainians. Proto-Belarusians were a part of Lithuania back then. Proto-Russians -- part of Golden Horde as Vladimir-Suzdal Duchy. Proto-Ukrainians were a part of Ruthenian Kingdom. Later that Kingdom was annexed into Polish-Luthuanian Commonwealth and Ukrainian identity was formed in the midst of the Poles and Lithuanians. Or you don't understand modern meaning of the prefix "proto"? Nowadays, we have come to understand it as "before", rather than "first". Like, proto-Greeks before the Bronze Age were not Greek and didn't call themselves this way. Yet we call them proto-Greeks in the books.

@vondondolo1582 Год назад

@@abukafiralalmani The first uses of the term "Ukraine" were in the 12th century to refer to the region, and by the 16th century it was used in official chronicles. By the 20th century terms like "Ruthenian", "Podolian", or "Volhynian" were anachronistic and gave way to "Ukrainian". It was also used to describe the Cossack Hetmanate. It's a perfectly valid historical term to use in reference to an area and the people living there, unless you're a modern-day Russian revisionist with motive to impose the "Little Russian" epithet that wasn't a thing until long after the development of nationalism. Cope harder.
