    It took me way too long to realize this was building toward the Qing; I had no idea the Manchus were descended from the Jurchen, I thought they were their own thing entirely. Man, I'm glad this channel exists.

    Just discovered your channel after I finished watching an entertaining and historical based Chinese tv series called Forward Forever. The series covered the tumultuous time of the late Qing dynasty and the revolution period towards the new republic. It was told through the eyes and experiences of a group of idealistic young people. I have some knowledge of Chinese history but your channel is so helpful in giving me more understanding! Your history telling is very informative, insightful and well put together. It gave me the added backgroud of the events and people in China during that period. Many history programs are very boring! Let alone being bias and distorting to be politically correct or to suit a certain narrative. So thank you for your hardwork!

    @TheJackmeisterMongolHistory 5 років тому +4

    Excellent summary. Great to see such detail of Nurhaci, who often seems relegated to as a footnote preceeding the Manchu conquest of China proper.
    A small thing: it would be great to see, either in the video itself or the description, at least the major sources you used, and if possible, the main primary sources on his life. Not absolutely necessary, but for those of us more research interested, it's always a great boon, and is helpful to others who want to study the area but don't know which sources or authors to look for.
    A minor point: since this video covers 60+ years, sometimes it was hard to note which year you were talking about at a given point. Most of the time you did end up showing the year, but the cue seemed a little slow. If they were a bit closer together, it would be easier to follow at those points. But that's a rather minor nitpick (and may have just been me!) Out of an overall very well presented video.

    • @TheJackmeisterMongolHistory
      @TheJackmeisterMongolHistory 5 років тому

      A bit of a stretch, but a future video of a comparison of Nurhaci to that earlier Jurchen unifier, Aguda, would be very cool to see. Did Nurhaci see him as an example? Did he have the same reverence among 16th century Jurchen that Chinggis Khan had among the Mongols?

    It is hard to imagine Ming equipped with western Cannon and matchlock and their own designed firearm. A country with far superior military technology and wealth would be defeated by a small group of barbaric nomad people with cavalry , bow and arrows only .

    I'm of the opinion that when speaking in English and using words from a foreign language, it is stylistically best to stick to the standard English pronunciation of those words and names. You use Chinese pronunciation for every one and it comes across as stilted and overly precise.
