The Yenisei Kyrgyz people were not complete nomads, as they were probably semi-nomadic. And Chinese records mentioned that the Kyrgyz people practiced agriculture, and this was proven in archaeology, where archaeologists discovered agricultural tools and agricultural crops during the era of the Kyrgyz Yenisei. The book Hudud al-'Alam, The Borders of the World, mentioned that there is a city in the land of the Kyrgyz in which the Khaghan resides. He also mentioned that the Kyrgyz people trade in musk materials, lint, wood and ships. Many Kyrgyz runic inscriptions have been discovered. The historian Al-Hamdani mentioned in the book "Histories of the Mongols" that the land of the Kyrgyz is agricultural and contains some cities. Archaeologists have discovered an ancient city in the Yenisei River region dating back to the era of the Xiongnu Empire and containing a large palace. Indeed, the history of the Kyrgyz-Yenisei kingdom is ambiguous, especially since archeology studies are still backward in the lands of Mongolia and southern Siberia. It was likely that it was a local kingdom within the country of the Yenisei River in southern Siberia, or perhaps it was satisfied with the steppe lands of Mongolia with southern Siberia, and later with the expansions of the Khitan Liao kingdom, its influence retreated to the borders of the lands of the Yenisei River. The great migration of the Kyrgyz people from southern Siberia to Kyrgyzstan today seems to have occurred in the late Middle Ages or early modern era.
thank you for the video, but unfortunately most of the video is unreliable. Firstly, you said that the Kyrgyz never built structures, but the Arab geographer Al Idrisi mentions the cities of Khirkhir, Daraid-Khirkhir, Nashran, Khakan-Khirkhir in his work. Also on the territory of Khakassia is the Kyrgyz fortress "Tarpig", in addition, in the Persian work "Hudud-al Alam" the capital of the Kyrgyz Khaganate - the city of Kemijkat is mentioned. Secondly, you said that "El" means the people, not the state. This is a misconception, since even the Turkic Khaganate had the self-name Türük El, that is, the state of the Turks. I do not blame you, but your main mistake is that you used Wikipedia as a source, the Kyrgyz made trips to China, Tibet, Tien Shan, East Turkestan, Manchuria and so on. If you used wikipedia as a source, then you could study the articles "Alp Sol Tepek" and "Yingwu Qaghan", I'm not being rude to you, but I expected more when I asked you to make a video about the Kyrgyz, sorry.
Its amazing how Turkic people like Kyrgiz, Mongolian, Tibetan, Uighurs, Altai etc once a formidable force of Asia have all lost their steam at present day.
Technology changes geographical advantage. During their height, the technology of the time, cavalry and composite bow, ensured their significance and dominance of the Silk Road. With the advent of deep water navigation and gun powder, their military power waned as did the importance of the Silk Road. Notice that the first European powers that thrived under these new technologies are Portugal and Spain, geographically located on a peninsula, giving easy access to the seas. Excerpt from The End of The World Is Just The Beginning by Peter Zehien.
@@joebidet2050 Yes. The Mongols was just the latest iteration of a Steppe Confederation...such as the Xiongnu, Huns, Gork Turks, etc. Mongol is an Altaic language, like Turkic. Mongols were the inner tribe. The outer tribes were Turks. The vast majority of the Mongol Army where Turks. At the Battle of Ain Jalut, the Mamluks defeated the Mongol vanguard. The Mamluks consisted mostly of slave soldiers, Kipchcak Turks. So where the Mongols. In fact, the ruling powers of the middle east have been Turks since the Seljuk. Seljuk, Mongol, Mamluk, Ottoman are all Turks.
Unfortunately, your video left me unsatisfied. You make ancient kyrgyz people seem barbaric, like they were just some nomads, willing to destroy everything and not even rule over it. Should’ve talked more about kyrgyz smithery, complex governmental system, etc. The map online is not “rubbish” as you’ve said. It is the Kyrgyz Khaganate at it’s max extension. Kyrgyz people controled this region for not so long, but they in fact did control it all at once. It’s proven by kyrgyz rune stones in Manchuria, Central Asia, Tibet, etc. Wish you best from Kyrgyzstan🇰🇬, but unfortunately your video has left us offended.
Yenisei Qirghiz were a semi-nomadic group of people. "As has been indicated, it is clear from Chinese information and archaeological records that the Kyrgyz of the Yenisei region practiced an economy that included a significant agricultural element along with pastoralism. They lived in or near the region's river valleys, and their environment was suitable for the growing of dry-field grains such as millet, barley, and wheat. Chinese sources speak of sowing and reaping, and archeological excavations have unearthed ploughshares (from wooden ploughs requiring draught animals to pull them) and sickles in the area.... Kyrgyz dwellings reflected their environment and mixed economy of agriculture and pastoralism; according to the Chinese, the Kyrgyz had permanent wooden houses covered with bark for use in the winter months especially as well as tents." Michael Drompp. The Yenisei Kyrgyz from Early Times to the Mongol Conquest And because the Qirghiz were not pure nomads, they had access to heavy armored cavalry just like Uyghurs and Köktürks. Light cavalry Mongols of Genghis Khan would later use this to their advantage as they themselves were pure nomads and therefore did not have blacksmiths. Mongols used Qocho Uyghur and Yenisei Qirghiz heavy cavalry forces against the heavy cavalry contingents of their enemies like the Tanguts in the East or Khwarezmians in the West.
Author, please correct the video, some parts have errors, in 693 the Kagan of the Eastern Turks, Kapagan, gave his close sister in marriage to Barsbek Kagan, so as not to fight. In 709, the Kagan of the Eastern Turks, Kapagan, sent his best commander Kultegen at the head of his troops. The army against the Kyrgyz was secret and took place in winter. In winter, up to one meter of snow falls on the mountains, difficult to pass places, so they did not wait for the enemy and only guarded the important approach to the Altai Mountains, the Eastern Turks bought one of the local residents, who showed the passage was not guarded after they passed through the passage they passed through the passage they attacked at night and destroyed many yurts...
El, Il, Ulush - given the right context these terms mean "country" in Old Turkic. Qighiz El - Country of Qirghiz, Qocho El/Ulush + other documented name On Uyghur El/Ulush - country of Qocho/Country of ten Uyghurs. "State" is modern European concept.

@@rednaksiii From the Kul Tegin Inscription: "Budun anca temis ellig budun ertim" The budun (people) said "We were a people with a state". Budun and el are not the same.
to be honest, this video is a complete failure. almost everything said is not true, it is very superficial and even insulting to some extent, it was extremely difficult for me as a descendant of the yenisei kyrgyz and a person who studied their history to watch this video. your past videos about uyghurs, oghuzs and others are on a completely different level
You should do research correctly and say rubbish. I don’t believe professional historians who have thousands of subscribers use that kind of language against one nation. I’m proud Kyrgyz and I don’t know where did you get your information. I’m sorry to say that your research is rubbish (did you notice, compare to you I did apologize before I used the impropriate language)
You said scholars still debating about Kyrgyz empire. Do you think you’re a better historian than world scholars? The proud Kyrgyz I demand correct your language.

In the middle of the sixth century the Turkic group bearing the ethnonym Türk crushed the Ruanruan and gained control of the castern steppes for the next few hundred years. The subsequent Türk empires at times also controlled Mongolic and Para-Mongolic peoples, including the Khitan, who copied political and organizational terms from Turkic. During this period, the ancestors of the historical Mongols are likely to have been contained within the entities known by the names Otuz Tatar (Shiwei) and Toquz Tatar (Southern Shiwei), located east and southeast of Lake Baikal. West and north of the lake were the Turkic Üc Qurigan, the linguistic ancestors of the Yakut. In 742 the Türk were defeated by the likewise Turkic confederation of the Uighur, who, in turn, were pushed aside by the Ancient Kirghiz in the 840s. Some Uighur tribes took refuge with the Otuz Tatar, but most of them withdrew to the oases of Eastern Turkestan. The Uighur then never returned to the steppes, even when they were invited by the Khitan, who had overcome the Kirghiz in the 920s. In the twelfth century, part of the Khitan, subseqently known as the Black Khitan (Qara Qitay), migrated westward to Central Asia and became Turkicized. In Mongolia, the immediate linguistic ancestors of the historical Mongols spread Mongolic (Pre-Proto- Mongolic) speech to territories previously held by Turkic speaking populations. The Mongols mainly occupied the basins of the rivers Orkhon and Kerulen, but the closely related Kereit and Naiman tribes expanded further to the west. Both the Kereit and espe- cially the Naiman may have contained unassimilated Turkic elements, as is suggested by the occurrence of Turkic names and titles among them. Janhunen, J. (2011) The Mongolic languages. London: Routledge. p.406
“人皆长大,赤发、析面、绿瞳,以黑发为不祥." Chinese historical records: ”Kyrgyz people are tall and strong, with red hair, white faces, and green eyes. They consider black hair to be unlucky.“ so ancient Kyrgyz and modern Kyrgyz are not the same race
Тупица, сейчас 21 век и существует анализ днк. Так что можно проверить кто от кого происходит, так вот у нас 50% генов схожи с Южными Алтайцами, затем Кипчакские и немного монгольских корней. Мы просто смешались с кипчаками и монголами.
Tonyukuk and Kultegin defeated an army of 80,000??😁 there was a reason why they went over the Sayan mountains in winter with a small force, and attacked the khagan’s camp at night. There were multiple failed military campaigns previously, that’s why Tonyukuk didn’t want to engage the main forces who were guarding the borders. The Kyrgyz never sought to subjugate other turks, it was a state of its own that existed since the Xiongnu era. Many troubled tribes and etc found refuge there, including even Temujin in his earlier years. All eastern steppe empires sought to gain control of or ally with the Kyrgyz because they had a skilled and well equipped army as well as a capacity to produce arms and other supplies thanks to their economy. After the events of 840’s they just marched through those lands facing little to no resistance, and simply forced the Tatars to free 70,000 Uighurs who were captured as slaves. The Karakhanids got their headstart afterwards. And last, there is no such a thing as “lesser khagan”. You can be a yabghu, tutuq, elteber or even inal, but one khagan cannot confer the title of khagan to another. They can only be recognized, either willingly or unwillingly.
"Xiongnu" is The Huns in Chinese. Before copy from Chinese sources need to make sure what is what. Otherwise, San Francisco will be "Jiu Jin Shan" and it will l be "was part of China from ancient time".

author, if you cannot correctly express your thoughts, then you should not remove the topic about history, in many places you contradicted yourself, you yourself took sources from Western scientists who did not conduct full investigations, and in many cases you did not add the opinion of Soviet scientists, you will ask why Soviet? because it was Soviet scientists who studied 80% of the history of TBRKs and they probably knew more, you also took a lot of unreliable information, this video was just an insult to the history of my nation, you, if you are so omniscient, then don’t forget that you are a Turk, you are not a Turk, you and your nation those are not the Seljuk Turks, you are 99% Greek, the Seljuk Turks have disappeared, you are impostors!!!

Ah, very well. Thanks. Didn't know you were active there. I used to be, too. But ever since the "List of Turkic dynasties and states" was deleted, I kinda lost hope. Gotta continue work on the Turkic Encyclopedia that was announced a while ago here...

Original Tatars in a 13th century sense were a Mongol people (possibly remnants of the Rouran empire). They were one of the primary constituents of Cengiz khan's uls in Outer Mongolia. todays Tatars are in fact decendants of Volga Bulgar turks (or Huns, pick one).
Realised I did not answer your question, names are just semantics anyway. People prefer migrating into prosperous lands. Europe in those days was a rural, feudalistic continent. Largest cities were a few ten thousands large at best. Persia, China, India, Middle East and East Rome were better places to move/raid into.

Compared to the Kyrgyz people of the Tang Dynasty, the Kyrgyz people of today look more Mongolian. The relationship with Li Ling was only a matter of clinging to each other out of political need. 跟唐代的吉尔吉斯人相比,今天的吉尔吉斯人的长相更加蒙古化了。跟李陵的关系,只是双方出于政治需要的相互攀附。
If you’d link the sources you’re referring in this video that’ll be great to check them out . Otherwise its misleading the audience and distorting history. Unfortunately, the author citing some information from Wikipedia and other not scientifically reliable sources. Thus making inadequate claims. I’d advise to use purely subjective research papers if you’d propose this kinda bold statements accordingly.
To the contrary, if you watch more videos you'll find that I make fun of Wikipedia from time to time for its inaccuracy, hence my wish to create a new encyclopedia from scratch that focuses on writing Turkic history as it is. The basis for this video are the works by Michael R. Drompp and Peter B. Golden.
Thanks for the prompt response. Unfortunately, the issue is that very few western scientists held its researches and been far from archeological sites thus very far away from the reality. The studies which are mostly been held by Soviet scientists and most truthful of them been punished and prosecuted accordingly. Majority of sources either in Russian or Chinese languages. You might take a look at the works of Vasily Bartold. He studied Turkic history visiting the local ethnicities, archeological sites back in old days when it’s remained a bit untouched.
Uyghurs are, rather famously, largely descendants from non-Turkic (Indoeuropean) Tocharians, something still apparent in their physiognomy and genetics. This togather with the descriptions you mention re. ancient Kyrgiz people, would suggest that they were also partly descendant from either Tocharians or other Indoeuropeans from the region (Scythians). We know from ancient DNA that patrilineal transference of Eastern Asian genetics (Turkic or otherwise Altaic) to Central Asia (understood in the narrow sense of West of the Altai Mts.) happened only in the Iron Age, i.e. more or less coincident with the Hunnic-Turkic expansion, and that previously, the two regions were genetically distinct in terms patrilineal (Y-DNA) but had already (in the Bronze Age, not earlier) began admixture in terms matrilineal (mtDNA). Earlier the Central and Western steppes were strictly West Eurasian in terms genetic or ancestral and only the Taiga (forest) area was actually conductive to East Asian migration, first in the Paleolithic with the Uralic peoples, then in the Bronze Age probably implying another Altaic population: the Tungus.
It would be wrong to say largely, historical Uyghurs who established Uyghur Khaganate were more numerous than Tokharian peoples. In addition, the Tocharian peoples generally became Persianized and took the name Tajik. Tajik was the general name for the non-Turkic and non-Semitic peoples of Central Asia, regardless of which language was spoken.
@@papazataklaattiranimam - Not really: Uyghur genetics show a very strong Western (i.e. Indoeuropean, Tocharian) inheritance. It topples anything Altaic or East Asian by a lot, especially on the decisive side of patrilineages. Kazakhs, which I think of as archetypal Turkics, are c. 80% East Asian (74% in Kazakhstan, 85% in Altai) by patrilineage but Uyghurs are only 36% instead, being dominated by Western R instead (mostly a specific branch of R1b, which is probably quite old in the region), with also important presence of J and South/West Asian L. Altaians, who are also purported to be of partly Tocharian roots (or at least very old Indoeuropean ones) have very high frequencies of R1a (documented locally since the Afanasevo culture, allegedly at the root of Tocharians). It's not about names or beliefs, it's about facts.
@@LuisAldamiz However, unlike haplogroup J, R(and Q) was originally from eastern Eurasia, not western. It would be a big mistake to attribute the entire haplogroup, which is approximately 25,000 years old, to Indo-Europeans. There are dozens of people, such as the Basques, Iberians, Chadians and Etruscans, who carry the R haplogroup even though they are not Indo-European. On the other hand, there are Greeks, Vlachs, Persians, Ossetians, Albanians, South Slavs and northern Germanic people who are Indo-European but have less R. The story for E, J, G, N or other haplogroups is similar too.
@@papazataklaattiranimam R and Q are very clearly from West Eurasia, from West Asia to be specific. Their precursor P (and its precursor K2) were from SE Asia but P1 migrated westward through North India and both R and Q are very clearly rooted in West Asia (Iran or nearby areas like Upper Mesopotamia). Anyway all this is Paleolithic prehistory and what we're addressing is much more recent prehistory and even full history. R remains for all purposes West Eurasian even in ancient DNA (no R whatsoever in Neolithic China, even if we do find abundant Q in the North) and I treated Q as East Asian in my previous comment. Overall both N and Q are the most difficult to gauge lineages in this East/West divide of Eurasia, because both have been in Siberia and nearby areas since very ancient times, with Q migrating from West to East (proto-Amerinds) first and N from East to West later (Uralics). But, to be on the safe side, in this discussion I treated both as Eastern. What I cannot accept is any claim that R is East Asian in any way: it is not, it was never documented east of Altain Mts. before the Iron Age or later.
@@LuisAldamiz Nobody found DNA of ancient Turks because Turkic people most likely burned their dead. Turks didn’t have Kurgan culture were dead bodies were buried. But Kultegin statue looks like a typical and pure Mongol face.
@@papazataklaattiranimam bro Naiman tribe was origin Western Mongolic and speak Mongolic,Naiman in Turkinization or Turko-Mongol durring Naiman migration to Central Asia
"Kyrgyz" means "forty girls" in Turkic language. "Tiele" was Chinese word for Turk, it was written like " 铁勒“---Tie (铁)--Le (勒)。So it should be pronounced as "Tie-Le", not Tie-L.
Currently, the similarities between Turks are only in the language family. Meanwhile, in terms of DNA, each Turk sub-tribe is different from one another. Turkis Turk Their DNA is closer to Greek, which js Caucasoid. Whereas Kazazk, Kyrgiz, Uyghur etc., are a mixture of Mongoloid and Caucasoid.
Khyrgyz culture is deeply influenced by the Mongols and some even argue that they’re a Mongolic nation that speaks a Turkic language. Your ambitions to attach all nomads into turks are absurd!
киргизи уйгури одделный народ киргизи енесейски турки ещо они Из-за кыргызов уйгуры были вынуждены строить государство на чужой земле, это два разных народа
И достаточно прекрасная была это земля. Высокий уровень цивилизации, влияние даже эллинизма, прекрасные фрески , малая скульптура, памятники письма 5-14 вв... В их числе и древнеуйгурские рукописи и книги, выполненные уйгурским письмом. В одном из двух новых уйгурских идыкутств, т.е..в Турфане , треть населения( простой народ) была грамотной. Это установили историки, изучая перечни мужских имен в уйгурских юридических документах 9-14 вв. Данные документы -- это договоры, тексты торговых сделок, о дарении, усыновлении и завещания. А также реестры общинного землепользования, налоговые и фискальные документы. Да какое ещё из тюркоязычных государств именно в 9-10 вв. имело подобный аппарат госуправления? К тому.же не были оазисы для уйгуров "чужими". Предки уйгуры имели отношение к древним государствам в оазисах -- к государствам Крорана ( Лоулань) и Чэши.( Гаочан) З-6 вв. Тогда часть уйгуров населяла таримские оазисы, и это доказали китайский историк Гу Бао и советский историк А.Н.Бернштам. С 800 г.почти все оазисы Таримского бассейна были под протекторатом Уйгурского каганата. Поэтому, переселившись и к своим соплеменникам, уйгуры из каганата отлично влились в древнюю культурную среду городов - государств, которые кроме тюрков, населяли также потомки древних переселенцев из Северной Индии, согдийцы из торговых колоний, а также абсолютные европеоиды. Это был народ -- носитель языка кучане,очень ошибочно вначале названный тохарами. И все эти этносы с достойным запасом интеллектуального богатства к 13-14вв стали одним из пластов в этногенезе уйгурского народа.
Автор ты ошибаешься, кыргызы были могущественными в истории и считались самым древним народом. Кыргызский каганат был самой мощной империей до нашей эры. Так что, голову не морочь!!!

The ethnonym Khakas appeared in the 20th century, if they are their descendants why don’t they bear the same name. Modern Kyrgyz are made up of tribes, some tribes are descendants of the Yenisei Kyrgyz, some are not. You should have studied better about the Kyrgyz people before writing this.
@@kyrgyznationalist0 How did they teleport from the Yenisian basin to the Tianshan moutains? Where are the records of continuity? Though people group can move places, but they are accompanied by rich records of their migration, eg Oirats from Altai foothills to Kalmykia, Khitans from Manchuria to Semrechye, Oghuz from central Asia to Anatolia ... Modern Kyrgyz are nothing but a result of imperial Russia's divide and conqueror, before which, they are just one of the Kazakhs
Why is this called historical Turkic States, that is completely false. The Huns and Magyars have their true history, the Arvisura passed directly down through the Millennia from the Taltos, everything is explained in there. As a direct descendant of Huns from Hungary we are not Turkic, we are Hun/Magyar/Uyghur/Avar, thanks, please correct this.
That’s a good point which we re debating on since when everything in steppe getting called “Turkic” As an example. The Fui Kyrgyz, like the Kyrgyz of the Tien Shan, Altai, China, Yenisei, Pamir, Tibet, Van and Bashkortstan, etc., have never been Turks by blood (haplogroup R1a1). The same situation with the brothers Uighurs! Consequently, they were never Turkic-speaking, since their Siberian Kyrgyz ancestors with their own language still lived as an independent state almost 1000 years ago, before the emergence of the Turkic Khaganate, consisting of nomadic tribes, which Ashina united. After the defeat of the Turkic Khaganate in 744 by the Uighurs and Karluks, having existed for no more than 200 years, in the 8th century all these tribes scattered across the steppe, taking their common language with them. Nobody knows yet about what language they all spoke before Ashina came to them and during the 200 years when they lived together? And the Kyrgyz at that time, as before, lived on their own in Siberia, nearby, without touching anyone. After the collapse of the Khaganate of these ethnic groups, history scattered throughout Central Asia. Therefore, even today Uzbeks (20-25%), Kazakhs (10-15%), Bashkirs (5-10%) and others have Kyrgyz clans, who also have R1a, who are also mistakenly considered "Turkic-speaking". And genetically all of them are also from the Kyrgyz clan. Therefore, we address them to all Turks, Kazakhs, Uzbeks, Bashkyrs, our so called brothers ", although many have different genes. So, just on the basis of the fact that for 200 years they all lived together, all of them, scientists arbitrarily and without evidence called, they call, and today We silently agree (even linguists, historians, ethnographers, etc.) Turks, Turkic-speaking.
GökTürks and Yenissey Kirghyz had Wusun and Saka origins... But they were mixed hordes... Türks and Türkic are cultural terms and not ethnical or genetic...
What is the culture of the Turkish ethnic groups? The Turks do not have NATIONS and all "Turkish speakers who do not understand each other" consist of minor ethnic groups that do not have their own national culture!
