    Fresh off the conquest of the Kwharazmian Empire, the Mongol horde treks west to wage war on Europe in the name of Genghis Khan. The principalities of the Kyivan (Kievan) Rus’ must suffer the ensuing Mongol invasion. The regional peoples rally behind leaders such as Danilo of Halych-Volhynia (Daniel of Galicia) to assert independence.

      @@rudylutz2085 it's not incorrect. The word Ukraine already existed and was used to describe a certain regions Ruś in the Duchy of Pereyaslav. Now the word Ruś was only applied to the regions of Kyiv, Chernihiv and Pereyaslav. Neither Novgorod nor Suzdal, Vladimir, nor even Galicia (till the creation of the Kingdom of Ruthenia) were called Ruś. You can read old novgorod, ipatiivski, lavrentiivski chronicles still available nowadays, and you'll see all those regions were put in contrast to Rus, which was in nowadays Ukraine.
      Other regions were called Ruś only when there was a need to emphasize on their subjection to Rus (meaning subjection to Kyiv and Ruthenians living there). Even slavic tribes of other regions used to call themselves differently: while people from Kyiv, Pereyaslav and Chernihiv used to call themselves Rusyny (meaning Ruthenians), Novgorodians and Pskovians were called Sloveny. And the lands of modern Moscow were mainly populated by finnougric tribes. This means that by that time there already existed different slavic and non-slavic ethnicities within the federation.
      The core of Ruś was in Kyiv, and Ruthenians as an ethnicity formed around Kyiv, they still live there, only the name has changed, because the region of Ruś called Ukraine spreaded its influence upon other regions. And there's nothing weird in it, there are many examples of such changes among other peoples: Lechia to Poland, Dacia to Romania, Muscovy to Russia. Nobody has a doubt that Lechia is basically Poland, yet people still think that Ukrainians "appeared out of nowhere". What's the reason of such ambiguity? Ukrainians used their original name (Rusyn) up until WW2 in Galicia, up until the beginning of XXth century in its north-eastern regions (Chernihiv) and still kept it nowadays in the most isolated mountain regions of Transcarpathia.
      Thus calling Ruś "Ukraine" is not a mistake. It's just another name of the same entity. And it's just the same as calling Lechia "Poland", but nobody gets mad due to the latter.

      absolutely incorrect, 100% revisionism. No "ukraine" existed in 13 th century, not even theoretically, it's laughable to claim so. The word itself means frontier, kray/kraina in every slavic language, not a country. "Kievan Rus" (or Kyivan or whatever) wasn't called Kievan either, only Rus. Ruthenia also means Rus-land, land of Rus, bastarnized latin name. People of Paris call themselves Parisians, so I guess they are a nation according to this ridiculous twisted 'logic'.

    Hey Guys, great vid. I really think your best or at least most interesting topics are the ones like this where clashes between different nationalities occur. The one about the Japanese Vs the Mongols and the Native Americans Vs the Vikings are really unique. These made me want to click because I’ve never heard of stories between cultures clashing before which are so far apart geographically. Looking at the number of views on those vids I think others share this attraction to the topics too. Keep it up more of that. Please. Maybe one between the Myans and the Spanish at first contact.

    • @glib4571
      @glib4571 Рік тому +170

      The word Ukraine already existed and was used to describe a certain regions Ruś in the Duchy of Pereyaslav. Now the word Ruś was only applied to the regions of Kyiv, Chernihiv and Pereyaslav. Neither Novgorod nor Suzdal, Vladimir, nor even Galicia (till the creation of the Kingdom of Ruthenia) were called Ruś. You can read old novgorod, ipatiivski, lavrentiivski chronicles still available nowadays, and you'll see all those regions were put in contrast to Rus, which was in nowadays Ukraine.
      Other regions were called Ruś only when there was a need to emphasize on their subjection to Rus (meaning subjection to Kyiv and Ruthenians living there). Even slavic tribes of other regions used to call themselves differently: while people from Kyiv, Pereyaslav and Chernihiv used to call themselves Rusyny (meaning Ruthenians), Novgorodians and Pskovians were called Sloveny. And the lands of modern Moscow were mainly populated by finnougric tribes. This means that by that time there already existed different slavic and non-slavic ethnicities within the federation.
      The core of Ruś was in Kyiv, and Ruthenians as an ethnicity formed around Kyiv, they still live there, only the name has changed, because the region of Ruś called Ukraine spreaded its influence upon other regions. And there's nothing weird in it, there are many examples of such changes among other peoples: Lechia to Poland, Dacia to Romania, Muscovy to Russia. Nobody has a doubt that Lechia is basically Poland, yet people still think that Ukrainians "appeared out of nowhere". What's the reason of such ambiguity? Ukrainians used their original name (Rusyn) up until WW2 in Galicia, up until the beginning of XXth century in its north-eastern regions (Chernihiv) and still kept it nowadays in the most isolated mountain regions of Transcarpathia.
      Thus calling Ruś "Ukraine" is not a mistake. It's just another name of the same entity. And it's just the same as calling Lechia "Poland", but nobody gets mad due to the latter.

    Can you do a video on the actual tactics that the Mongols used to defeat their heavier armored and more numerous enemies? I remember reading/hearing about how the Mongols were lightly armored with leather and silk and used repeated hunting techniques, attack and retreat, to draw out and tire their opponents who thought they were running away. The silk would not break against arrow heads and could be pulled to pull out the arrow from the flesh.
