The Siege of Diaoyuchen is highly underrated and deserve an episode. The fortress was an massive fortress city, perhaps the largest in the world at the time. It was located at the confluence of three rivers and held thousands of troops with their own gunpowder weapon arsenals. They held out for over 30 years. When they surrendered the three commanders offered terms that they would commit suicide and their men would be spared. The Mongols respected their decision. It was one of the few times the Mongols didn’t massacre the defenders.
I thought the Mongols, like just about everybody else at the time, had a rule about only massacring the defenders if forced to storm the city, because urban warfare _suuucks._ Also, it makes the city worth less. Not that I know enough about Diaoyuchen to know whether the Mongols stormed the city before surrender, just that that's not the way to bet with the information presented here.
When you take into account the fact that people where living short life at the time it is very likely that a certain number of people were born and died during this siege

Interesting, thank you for bringing this theory. Though I know that Samalas' impact was global, but I never thought that it might also contributed to the collapse of the Mongol Empire. Regionally, the eruption also weakened the Bedahulu Kingdom in Bali, where most of its populations perished, allowing the neighboring Singhasari to conquer the island later in 1284. Anyway, this also reminds me of a similar theory on how Tambora's 1815 eruption might play role in the fall of Napoleon's empire. You might want to check that out, if you haven't.
There are papers that link climate change- crop failure- Arab Spring. In fact middle east and Africa impacted the most from climate changes. We are under mercy of nature but we did not pay attention enough because we have taken modern technology for granted.

They erupt with different magnitude eruptions like earthquakes. Magnitude 7+ eruptions have global consequences and vei 8 and vei 9 can also kill all life on a whole continent. Thankfully they are very very rare only 4 of 7+ have been estimated to occur in last 2000 years
@K To be fair, it wasn't just the storms that stopped the invasions of Japan. Mongols didn't really get the whole sailing thing. Half the ships they used as transports were river boats that had very swallow keels or none at all.
This made me look into the end of Chola Dynasty (A Tamil empire which ruled over Southern India and vast regions of SE Asia 850-1279 A.D.) as the period is suspiciously close to that of 1257 Samalas eruption and although famine was widely reported during that period, the end of Chola dynasty was attributed to victory by rival Pandian Dynasty in wars. We know from other regions of the world during this period that the famines & wars were interlinked.

It’s awesome to see this Chanel making the correlation btw climate patterns and historical events. It’s something i have been thinking about for a few years
Humans always try to oversimplify history: Rome collapsed because barbarians, the Mongols tore themselves apart, etc. Real history, like any good story, usually has many causes for the big events that transpire.
@@argonerus i do but its something thats hard to wrap your mind around. perhaps its a result of the narrative that we humans have dominance over our enviroment?
@@arcxena_ Thank you for your answer. I really better understand what you mean now and I totally agree with your suspicion about a result of the human dominance narrative. I was among people who didn’t think that natural disasters have any significant or even relevant impact on the ways of living. I thought they are temporary and limited, and we humans can correct or fix any damage resulted from them and go on living the ways we want. But, I have changed mind for quite sometime and reflected why I thought that way in the past. Broadly, the answer is ‘ The trappings, bubble of thoughts or beliefs, and even propaganda pertaining to the notion of modern society that surrounds us since birth till now. There are a lot more sets of consciousness about the world that we need to know in order to improve our interconnected lives and the world so that our descendants will have a stable planet to live on since we cannot find anywhere else in the universe to be completely substituted.
It is encouraging that theories such as these that modify history are included in the historical narrative. As mentioned, environmental factors are a major consideration of the military, and has been so important for exactly the reasons discussed here. It is not just the tactical climate examined in detail, but the strategic weather which could affect long range planning, and must be so detailed for by succeeding generations of generals and their commanders.
One thing to note is that the famines experienced across Europe and Asia have a myriad of causes and vary on the specific area, but a major reason for those of Eurasia and Asia was due to the cumulative death count of the Mongols from Genghis to Ogedai. The pax Mongolia did make silk road trade more efficient, but at the same time the Mongols habit of slaughtering people, livestock and destroying crops shouldn't be overlooked. Moreover, the tendency for land based empires to become over extended and subsequently collapse into separate entities is a pretty common occurrence in history. A centralized state especially with unclear lines of succession on top of incredibly vast distances and massive diverse populations to govern is difficult if not impossible to maintain for long without some decentralization.
I really like this kind of discussion video on historical interpretations and views of events. Narrative videos are good fun, but I think they overshadow just how much disagreement there can be over events.
Man the history of the Mongol empire after Ögedei is so complicated. I listened to Dan carlin and most of your videos on this topic but still can't wrap my head around this period.
