How a British Pickle Merchant Became a Uyghur King
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 січ 2022
- "The Pickle King of Tartary" is a strange footnote in the often-turbulent history of central Asia. His real name was Khalid Sheldrake, a pickle manufacturer from London, and during the Chinese civil war he nearly became the king of Xinjiang and the Uyghur people. It's one of those obscure topics that deserve more attention...
His moniker has an amusing ring to it, and when I first heard about this story thought that I’d be making a light-hearted video. But I think it’s more complex than that. And I suspect depending on your own life experiences, you’ll react to it in a number of ways. You might see Khalid Sheldrake as the charitable philanthropist and a patron of Britain’s Muslim communities. But you might also see it as a story of empires and colonies, and a naïve man at the centre of it. What's more, you may be reminded of the ongoing accusations coming out of Xinjiang and the alleged maltreatment of the Uyghur people. Links, as always, are down below.
I had great fun making this video, and plan to cover more niche topics like these moving forward. Thank you all for 532k!

I think the fact that he kept giving talks about the state of the Uyghur's even when nobody cared shows he really did care. Maybe he was naive, but he was earnest.
I think most converts are.
"Due to the British public's lack of tastebuds, it was a successful operation."
It was less the joke than the matter of factly tone it was delivered in that destroyed my sides.
Shortly after his statement, I found mine in orbit.
Yep. Spending centuries colonising the world for spices for none of them to be used in cooking.
@@MolloyPolloy Our spices our good enough
@@JJaqn05 Yeah. All 2 of them. Salt and pepper.
@@abbyalphonse499 Thats all you need. Our food doesnt need much more. If everyone had the same cuisine the same spices the same recipies it would be boring. And you are assuming we dont use anything more. People call Indian food, Chinese food, Japanese food the best. If thats the case then British food is also the best since our cuisine is also influenced by these countries
As a young Muslim who is currently trying to build my own pickle and condiment-based empire, this video really resonated with me.
@@AysDoStuff I think China will have issue with that.
Pickle King Rick of Tartary 🤘
@Geba that’s the IRA wrong people

@Geba The Irish have converted to Islam? Sectarianism really is taking another turn over there it seems 🤔
The Pickle King of Tartary sounds like one those adventure books about british school boys from boarding school going on fanciful adventures to whimsical lands
I'm beginning to think they were all based on true life lol
@@ninamartin1084 yes
Honestly, if you get a Wikipedia article and your occupation doesn't read something like:
pickle manufacturer, Islamic philanthropist, King-elect of Islamestan
Are you even trying?
Just got myself some new life goals, thanks.
How did we never hear about this guy? This story is mental
Big Dill gotta keep a brother down.
It's one of those things you'll expect to see in TNO or Kaiserreich or Red dawn, but he seemed earnest in his faith and life. The part that maybe the President of the ETR didn't know would be iffy, but eventually we'll never know if the people would had accepted him.
History is full of little stories like these, from Brunei to Beaver Island. Thanks for sharing this one!
BRAIN ROOOOOOT
What was that estonian dude who became mongolian khan
@@novi_xa I think you’re talking about Roman von Ungern-Sternberg, though he was never a khan, just a crazy commander
Except Roman von Ungern-Sternberg from Kaiserreich actually did happen, he just didn't last long enough in our timeline to become Khan.
Certainly not a UA-cam title I ever thought I would see, but I’m definitely here for it!
🐐
Actually there's also a different historical figure with a very similar premise to his story - the Polish-Hungarian nobleman Maurycy Beniowski,who became a king of the Malgash tribe on Madagaskar
don't forget the German noble that became a Mongol Khan - Roman von Ungern-Sternberg
also a fugitive from a siberian prison, a pirate for a short time and generally a very progressive person in the colonial age
And the Spaniard who became king of the Amazon, Ildefonso Graña Cortizo.
Polish-Hungarian my ass
he was Slovak!
one of the few popular figures from my small country
tho, back in the day my country was under dominion of Hungary, pretty dark times
Also the american who became king of the Sanwi people in Ivory Coast. His name? Michael Jackson
I kid you not Xi Jingping, he turned himself into a uyghur King, funniest shit I’ve ever seen
Winnie the Flu is a Uyghur king??
"I'm pickle Kiiiiing"
I laughed
@@NotFckingBen bit rascist
Xi jinping is a slaughter of Uighurs
He seems like a genuinely good guy. He focused on the positive aspects of Islam like giving to less fortunate, and it can not have been easy to advocate for religious equality in that time and place. In some respects he gave up privilege for spiritual truth and I cannot fault a man for that.
Islam is probably one of the most misunderstood faiths in the entire world.
Islam’s greatest attribute is it’s unwavering affection for kitty cats
hochelaga: Today we are talking about mythical beasts, Angels and beings from Christianity, religion, etc.
Also hochelaga: british pickles.
YES MORE HOCHELAGA! I love the unique and interesting stories you cover!!
I can see this story being made into a Wes Anderson film.

Holy shit the LINKS. This guy has got to have one of the most detailed YT descriptions out there and I'm here for it
I love how each video has a slightly different personality. You said you wanted to improve your video making skills, and it is delightful to look for the different techniques and elements you add to every video.
And that's how pickles wound up in Tartar sauce.
That is ......cold.
Aaah why isn't this getting more likes?
He turned himself into a king, he's king rick
Funniest shit I’ve ever seen…
“For many, however , it was just simply too far away to be of interest” is exactly why people aren’t talking about what the Chinese Government is doing the the Uyghurs today. In a roundabout way you’ve shined a light on this. Keep up the great content.
There's probably a shitload of problems in your fatherland you can try fixing, before having the audacity to play the world's gendarme. What makes you think you or your country should forget everything else and try to save that obscure nation, whose only historical footmark was being assaulted by the chinese? Why should I care about them instead of the troubles of my own people? And a last question that you'd better answer to yourself: What do you play whiteknight for?
Those allegations have been debunked for a while now
A modicum of research would show that the Uyghur genocide by CCP forces to be fabricated.
Xinjiang is currently one of the most per capita tourist-dense regions of China, you have eyes-and-ears from around the world and yet not a tiny smidgen of evidence not linking back to NGO propaganda outlets or literally the US State Department can be found.
The border of Xinjiang isn't Western India, the Chinese government doesn't have floodlights lining the entire border of the XUAR like India has on it's border with Pakistan. Information and people leave and enter Xinjiang everyday, it's not a blackhole of 'No Return'. The Uyghur "genocide" is legitimately the sole genocide in known history (so at a charitable minimum of 5-6 thousand years) to not cause a mass refugee crisis from people fleeing to protect their lives and livelihoods.
The Rohingya genocide in Myanmar led to hundreds of thousands of refugees. Neighboring Bangladesh has nearly 1 million Rohingya in refugee camps. Rohingya refugees even constitute my US state's largest minority group. And yet, no waves of Uyghur refugees have been or are rushing into Mongolia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, or Pakistan.
The only major Uyghur populations outside of Xinjiang and it's immediate neighboring areas are Syria and Turkey because the US and Saudi Arabia funded Wahhabism in the region in a failed attempt to destabilize China and a SUCCESSFUL attempt at radicalizing unsuspecting Uyghurs into being their reactionary soldiers in the Syrian Civil War. The past Urumqi riots and bombings didn't pop into existence for no reason, they were ideologically propped up by imperialists halfway across the globe who in reality don't have even a single shred of empathy for them.
@@jakekaywell5972
China, unlike your attempt to smudge the facts, is both massively controlling of information and a deep surveillance state that doesn't allow independent movement. You can't flee from China where the government watches every move, and even in tourism holes an outsider must stay on the paths the Chinese government sets for them or be hauled off to jail for "espionage".
This is the diffference between a genocide carried out by a small, unstable state and a mature, totalitarian dictatorship.
@@badlydrawnturtle8484 I guess those thousands of foreign tourists (roughly 670,000 as of 2019) who visit Xinjiang yearly are all wrong then. If there was truly something there, someone from "the outside world" would have found it by now out of sheer probablility, regardless of the CCP's restrictions. Also, I'm not exactly a fan of the CCP myself. It's just that we must distinguish the actual crimes they did or are doing from blatantly false events. Otherwise, we're no better than they are.
SHEIKHS ON A PLANE!!!!
NO! YOU STOP. BECAUSE THATS FUCKING AMAZING AND I LOVE YOU
My electromagnetic fields professor was a pickle farmer before he became a theoretical particle physicist. He told us "Back in the 80s, I was a pickle farmer. One year, we had a really bad drought, so I decided it would be easier to become a physicist. I was very wrong."
"He turned himself into a pickle king! It's the funniest thing I've ever seen"

That opening shot was the best thing I've seen all week. All praise the mystic pickle!
Next HoI4 DLC better include a focus tree for Sinkiang, including to recrown the pickle king
Maybe some of the people felt they were in a bad position, stuck between the U.S.S.R. & China. So they thought if they had an English king they would come under the protection of the British empire & could maintain their independence.
You mean they thought they were in a pickle🤣
Tell that to Brunei my friend they would say differently.
What a random story. Thanks for telling it for us !
I had to read the title about 5 times before I understood it.
Truly amazing story! It would be a whimsical curiosity, if it wasn't reminding about the sad history and (above all) present situation of the Uyghur people. Thank you for pointing it out at the end (and putting the links in the description).
BTW This story reminds me about the so-called Samo's Empire (circa 631-658 AD/CE), an early Slavic state, apparently led by some Frankish merchant. It must have been one hell of a story but, as with most things in the early Medieval period, we hardly know any details.
I've never heard of this story before. It's really interesting! And I love the modern tie-in at the end about the current state of Xinjiang.
Absolutely love your channel. Thanks for another great video~ Looking forward to whatever you share next!
I turned myself into a Uyghur King, Morty!!!!! I'm the Pickle King of Tartary!!!!!
Today I also found out a Florida man was seen feeding meth to his attack squirrel. That guy becoming ''king'' is 2nd weirdest thing I heard.
Wow! This was the weirdest story I've ever heard all day today!

I found it harder to believe that you think liking pickles is bad taste than the rest of the story.
This is _unbelievable!_ Thanks for posting!
Without doubt the most mental thing I have heard in quite some time. Excellent work.
Probably one of favorite channels on UA-cam
Thank you so much brother. Great video!
What a fascinating story, thank you so much for sharing it
When I hear the phrase "pickle merchant" I imagine a man selling pickles from a travelling stand, journeying from town to town
This is one of my favorite youtube channels
he honestly seemed like a really genuine bloke
Amazing as always.
“Due to the British public’s lack of taste buds” LMAO
Hochelaga, this has distinct paralels with the story of Josiah Harlan, the American adventurer who was the "original" of Rudyard Kipling's tale. .. There's an excellent book by Ben Mackintyre... 👍😊
Rudyard Kipling must have heard a news headline of Josiah Harlan!
Amazing story! As a Turkish, I never knew this. Now I am gonna tell the story to everyone. 😄
Thanks for pointing to the inhumane activities against Uyghur people living in China by the way. As you probably know, Turks and Chinese had fought each other in Asia since the beginning of time. 😄 (Hence the great wall of China) And apparently it is not over.
Many Uyghurs ran to Turkey from the rigid executions in China and now they can't even leave the country. We need to pay more attention to the injustice there and show our attitude that it's not okay to treat people like that.
True, the Uyghur population were only approx 200 or less in China.
Sad.

You know what's even more bizarre? At the exact same time as this was happening, a random Spaniard, Ildefonso Graña Cortizo, became king of a massive swath of the Amazon after being kidnapped by a local tribe and marrying the chieftain's daughter. The world is truly a weird place.

To answer the question if its ok to rule a place where you havn't been befor I would say yes. Many of Polish rulers through out the history were foreigners and they were good Kings/queens. I would even say that they were better than most home grown ones. I feel that when a person becomes a leader to a foreign people he/she does it out of compassion to that country and/or its people. When one becomes a ruler of its own native country he is much more seceptiable to corruption. A foreign king must be more carefull to gain the symphaty of its subjects than a native person who most likelly has a group in the country that will support him/her no matter what so he is less concern about the rest of the country. No of course it's a compplytly different situation when someone conquer a land in the name of foreign power but he is nit a ruler then but a conqueror.
Many of these "Polish rulers" never actually came to see what country they rule (at least iirc) and what value does a king like that bring to a place?
It only allows for crippling decentralization of power and backwardness as the country is unable to propel forward in the race towards even greater power.
Certainly a major feature in the line of British monarchs......
The silk road would have been a very hot and dry venture, and pickles are really good for rehydration.
This! I have possible electrolyte issues (still being diagnosed) and I get desperately thirsty for periods and eating salty snacks and pickles help.
This is an amazing story, and an amazing way of presenting it. Your editing and writing skills are so excellent now, I hope you keep making content for us to enjoy, even if its past this channel.
i really appreciate this topic being covered irt the situation the Uyghur people currently face and how people who follow Islam in Britain are currently being treated.. despite being a story from a century ago its funny how topical it really is
what the uyghurs currently face is prosperity. there is no persecution or genocide. i live with the uyghurs.
@@dedg0st Rlly ? I am just asking?
@@blackzed144 no there is a genocide. Its essentially impossible to hide now. There are people from china who are paid by the chinese government to go to youtube videos and deny this stuff, if you are interested you should definitely look into it. They're harvesting organs and forcing Uyghur women to bear han chinese children (ethnic cleansing through rape). Its definitely happening.
@@lostkin4910 That's an insane thing to comment. Every tiny bit, and I absolutely mean 'every', of "evidence" behind the fabricated genocide in Xinjiang is high-quality (read: low-quality, because it's immensely noticable how fabricated of a tale it is with even the tiniest of research) propaganda from the US and its allies.

Kipling was an imperialist but he also cautioned against imperialism plenty. For every white man's burden there's a recessional.
Chris hitchens wrote a brilliant piece for the atlantic, baring a few mistakes about this many years ago. That at the core kipling is a man of permanent contradictions. Walk with kings and do not lose your common touch and all. You find exaltation of imperium and cautionary tales of it, the king and the common man put both high and low, and jingoism matched with poems about the deep destruction and folly of war.
"If one were to assemble a balance sheet of Kipling's own explicit
contradictions, it would necessarily include his close relationship with
the Bible and the hymnal, and his caustic anti-clericalism; his staunch
Anglo nationalism, and his feeling that England itself was petty and
parochial; his dislike of nonwhite peoples, and his belief that they
were more honest and courageous; his love-hate relationship with the
Irish; his contempt, and deep admiration, for the United States; his
respect for the working class, and his detestation of the labor
movement; his exaltation of the empire, and his conviction that its
works were vain and transient." - excrept from the article.
