Please share the video and spread the message. 🙏
This is the BEST biographical and historical account Of Genghis Khan and the period. It is the standard by which Western Historians should be measured and compared. Outstanding Academic Excellence. Thank You
Thank you, Chris.
I agree with you 100%. Chavda is a genius.
Agree.

My grandmother here in Mongolia refers India as the land of gods and has deep respect.
Wow!! Our grandparents really hold vast wisdom. That we should consume
Do you believe Ghenghiz Khan was a practicing Buddhist?
@@mtarkes oh i dont have any experience in history but i generally get the immpression that he started out as a shamanist tengrist and perhaps became an agnostic athiest eventually. He was tolerant towards all religion equally and sought after and invited many scholars at the end of his life. Common teachings of buddhism however has always been the spoken and folk wisdom spread among Mongolians for many many years.
We love mangolians as they love Indian's.
As the video said the secret history of Mongolia gives detailed insight into his campaigns and reasons behind it. Also I heard from an inner Mongolian actor that the CCP bans at least half the episodes from any historical series depicting Chinggis khans or the Mongols. History can be so fragile and influential. Hope the future holds better history for all of us.
I am from Myanmar and our ancestors were Mongols. We love *Hindu-India*
We indian also love budhist mayanmar
May Myanmar return to normalcy and the people live in peace. India must help the Myanmar people during this military crisis. (mohd iqbal).

Bro, i am a Nigerian and never thought I will be interested in the history of India, I just stumbled on the video accidentally, and with the excellent way you are delivering your knowledge, I watched the video till the end, unbelievable. Kudos.
My assessment of Genghis Khan will certainly change after goin through this video.
Hi. Fellow Nigerian here! You and me are in the same boat😂 I stumbled on this video and I couldn't stop watching.
Hello My Nigerian brother I'm a History student And I can Confirm that This whole Video is made On an agenda and this contains half truths and lies to profit the current government of india.
I’m Nigerian too and just wanted to say hi lol
I’m Nigerian too 🙏🏿 knowledge has no race
This was a beautiful video, and you are a fabulous history teacher. I'm going to study deeper into this subject. As a 70 year old American, I've come to realize how modest and weak our history instruction of the countries behind the Iron Curtain, and the East in general, were. It was almost as if they didn't exist. And unless you were a history major in college, it might be a rare elective course that brought you into contact with that history. Thank you for this, Teacher.
All people from north and South America are Americans, not just United States citizens.
@@elpacho....9254 Thanks for your reply. I'm aware of the fact, and meant no offense. I was speaking from the POV of a member of the Western Hemisphere, as opposed to Eastern. What's your nationality - was your history education different in substance from what I described? I'm just interested in knowing. Thanks again! 🙏😊
Indian is brilliant, resonant and unforgettable.
I’ve always believed that Indian was the center of civilization 10-20000 years hence. To trace humanities steps out of Africa heading north as determined, then the route was either western or an eastern path.
I find it hard to believe that 100,000 years ago mankind would continue through expedition, that easterly flow snd eventually onto North America. Yet so it continues.
And now both India and China have similar populations, but how different is their societal foresight, edification and spiritual connectivity??

My history teacher (Egypt) explained the same reasons for not invading India. Emphasising the ruling Mamluk did not provoke nor pose any threat to the Mongols and that the great Khan had no greed for wealth but was driven by a deep desire for righteousness and revenge…
But the mongols did later invade india it was just when they were called mughals not mongols.

Genghis Khan was the the manliest man to ever walk this earth. And not because he was extremely powerful. But because he knew when and where to use that strength.
Fr it’s soo awesome I wanna stay alive to find out more even tho it’s useless But he let no one cross him and did thins not out of anger but reason
He was also know for fathering an crazy amount of children!
Dude was insanely impressive
Reminds me of male rana mongoliana.
He was a rapist and murderer. Stop glorifying this evil man.
As a Mongolian it is nice to know there are people who actually know the real facts.
I respect Genghis khan and Kublai khan. They are historical heroes.
@S K there is no proof that Tamerlane was a decadent of the Great Kahn
We all are looking for our real history and some people like him are going beyond what it actually takes... thanks to him 🙏

@Naruto Six kuch 'bhi' comment kar deta hain
@Naruto Six Look destroying mosques and his anti Islam activities doesn't mean he was the same to every religion. Also I think he hated Islam cuz they killed his grand-son, also humiliated his officials. Do you think a man of that calibre of any fucking ethnicity (Hindu, Islam, European, East Asian etc.) would tolerate that? The shah of Iran deserved that. Also Delhi sultanate became independent so you shouldn't be worrying about it.

@Abhinav Anglo Mughal War hua tha 1686-1690 and it was a Mughal Victory ofc it will be Aurangzeb was ruling India at that time
As a Mongolian, I must admit that I am amazed by your outstanding and coherent explanation. I am proud that our ancestors were men of principals and respected different cultures. Cheers!
Mongols were Hindus, that is why Genghis Khan refused to invade India.
Exactly. Coupled even with few army, any territory can easily be captured by their raging army. But dat is a mystery for India. Buddhism is one of the reason.
Gengis Khan clearly believed in KARMA,
cornerstone of Hinduism & Buddhism.
Greetings from Indian in Canada 🙏
No one cared about Hinduism outside India for most parts but Buddhism ☸️ had won the hearts of millions all around the subcontinent, anyone with basic knowledge of Buddhism knows how it spread like wildfire as it resonated with the traders & merchants, who were often rational & hardworking, as opposed to Hinduism was crippled by cast system empires by the Brahmins that time. Hinduism also has a long history of greed & rivalry, lot that have been wiped from history similar to western historian, which is never seen under Buddhist national. The great emperor of India - Ashoka is a great example who was one of India’s most ferocious conquerer but took refuge in Buddhism in later parts & is also the reason we have come to learn about Buddhism today. The Hindu & Mughal rulers and ensured to wipe off Buddhism from the face of India as it empowered every being.
Regardless, fascinating narration.
Please keep up, people seeking truth would always appreciate this perspective.
@@justiceempire1170 not Buddhism, Mongols were Hindus.
@@abro99 your comment reeks of anti Hindu hatred, keep ur anti Hindu fake history with u. No one cared about Hinduism outside India? There was a time when Hinduism was followed all over this planet, anyone who knows real history knows that Buddhism never spread anywhere like a "wild fire" at all except in places like Srilanka, Tibet and Thailand, these countries too were Hindu Before, Hindus never had a caste system but a Varna system, the caste system was started by UK, Varna system Never discriminated, you will never understand Varna system. Buddhism never resonated with any merchants because these merchants were hardworking and rational hence didn't agree with the teachings of Buddhism, Buddhism never spread in India or the rest of the planet except the countries I mentioned because no one agreed with the nonsensical illogical teachings of Buddhism that is why people all over the planet are leaving Buddhism and converting to Hinduism. Hinduism was never "crippled" ever, it was flourish more and more. Buddhism has hate, rivalry and greed always, Hinduism never had all this, Hinduism on the other always taught peace, harmony, tolerance unlike Buddhism. Buddhism taught to spread hate towards other religions, Your anti Hindu comment is an example, that is why Buddhists have always persecuted people of other religions everywhere, that is why Buddhists annihilated countless rohingyas Muslims and Rohingya Hindus. Buddhists annihilated And persecuted Hindus in Bhutan. Srilankan Buddhists annihilated and persecuted Hindus and Muslims in Sri Lanka. Hinduism is the most tolerant Religion. Buddhism teaches intolerance and violence against others. King Ashoka never converted to Buddhism nor did he preach Buddhism, that's another lie started by communists and Buddhist Historians. Hindus or Muugals never eradicated Buddhism, the fact is no one in India accepted Buddhism because Buddhism is full of nonsense and nonsensical teachings with no logic or spirituality.
The ancient history of Asia is insane.
The world's culture and religions are based in Asia.
If you look carefully, ancient wars are mostly done to invade India. But Why?😮

@Arjun Kanugo two main things I learn when I read about Genghis Khan history was meritocracy and diplomacy. He choose his men well regardless of their backgrounds and practices diplomacy better than most kings in history of mankind.
Yeah there were definitely some good points about him buy you can't just ignore all the bad stuff he did. He was still a rutheless and brutal ruler who caused millions of unnecessary deaths to innocent people simply to further his own cause
True, western reductionist perspective did changed the narrative to suir them. 👍

I'm argentinian, from European descent, still I cannot but agree with you in terms of european history being studies much more than the rest. Your points do make a lot of sense and I presume there is a good chance some are valid. It would be interesting for me to know more about Gengis Khan, still I would love for people talking about these guys to emphasize the horrible things they did. All of them from Gengis, via Cesar, the sultans and all the way to Stalin, Bush or Putin have donde so much wrong
Just like Mohammad, Temmujin created many things in society that are part of the foundations of Western societies to this day. There are many professors who dispute how vicious he was, saying he did a lot of conquering just by letting cities know he was coming. If they submitted, he did nothing to them.
Bloodthirsty belongs to all men. The killing of sport teams after they lost a game? Nuff said.
Thats because historiography comes from europe. Basically all university diciplines come from europe.
No shitty music, no fancy editing effects, just pure content by someone who's an actual historian. One of the best videos I've ever seen period.
RE "fancy editing effects", less face time and more map time would be an improvement.
Also, to fully counter the "reductionist view", information and archeology that examines the daily lives of the people pre and post Genghis (and his general) in the conquered lands is needed. How was trade affected? Were there successful administrations of the laws; what form and relative load were taxes? What cultural load was imposed by Genghis outside of his affinity for Hindu Buddhist traditions? What prevented him from establishing succession to maintain the empire? And finally the backbone of the "reductionist" narrative -- his psychological terror tactics prior to or after invasion -- must be addressed.
No game of throne scenes.
Totally agree
Agree. No "woke" rewriting history to suit their vile middle class hypocrite selves, just factual history.
Exactly
I’m an isiZulu speaking African from Africa, this just brought tears to my eyes. Thank you for this. Every source of information about Ghengis Khan portrays him as a blood thirsty warlord, something they never do to Alexander
A interesting perspective. Worthy of serious consideration.
Well done!

I'm so glad I found this opportunity to learn about history from an Eastern perspective ❤
well you can never fully trust history, but the way we protrayed him and the way we portrayed Alexander the Great just shows how superficial and stupid we are. The cause of this is the unbelieveble stupid thought that everything you dont know has to be somehow inferior to you and driven by low motives. I hate that a lot about us, because its wrong and dumb. I would even say that its an inherent superiority complex of the west as a whole which will be our downfall, or already is. But dont make the mistake to believe its only the west, China and parts of Arabia have the same problem.
I dare to add that, this chapter also teaches "Why shouldn't we trust blindly our fellow human beings". I wish we had a concept of visiting faculties like you, Abhijit Sir, during our school days. But I know now why not: politicians and opportunists don't want rebels. Rebellion originates only from true narratives. Kudos
I grew up learning history with a western narrative and perspective. Even a majority of our Indian history taught was on Mughals. Its quite a revelation and refreshing to hear from an Indian historian. Thank you.
I agree
I agree thondup bro 👍
As a child I use to admire almost all 'the greats' - for 1 quality I thought was possessed by all - How to manage mass? Today I got much better insight abt Chengis Khan. Much better human than some of "The Greats"..... Evn the Doc abt Chengis in NG also didn't quite highlighted the Good side of Chengis.
Agreed Thondup brother
This was definitely true in the past. However, in Western universities, there is now increasing guilt over European colonialism. Scholars here are starting to present alternative points of view, and not just stick with a Judeo-Christian bias. As a Buddhist, I am fully aware that Buddhism cannot be properly understood from a Christian or Muslim perspective. Right or wrong, English is the dominant scholarly language on Earth, and I can only access English language information. Fortunately, scholars (like The Indian Interest) from around the world are presenting their non-Western perspectives in English. I already know my culture's perspective, I want to understand other perspectives.

It’s possible that it was in part propaganda. You need to dehumanize an enemy if you’re going to loot and raid them. You can also unify the Christian’s against it simply because it is different enough to do so.

One lesson I learnt from history :
If you want to know real history, ask the hunted - not the hunters.
history is written by victors, so not all the history is accurate
Raiding and demanding tribute is different than conquering and encorporating
@@joelhungerford8388 talking to people and offering protection for them to join you doesn’t seem like conquering.. taxing and Roman trade routes doesn’t seem like conquering… now real conquering requires a siege.

After that force your women to have their offspring is just fundamental protocol used to assimilate you into the Mongol empire. When it comes to conquering the Mongols will have you fucked.

Just today I completed reading the book "Genghis Khan & the Mongol conquests 1190-1400" by Stephen Turnbull, 2003, Publisher OSPREY Publishing (Essential of Histories), and wondered why the Mongols circumvented India and continued their exploits in the direction of Iran, Middle East and Europe on Western side of Mongolia and also towards China, Russia, Burma, Siam, Vietnam, Korea, Japan, Java, Combodia and Japan on their East. Then by chance I came across this video by Abhijit explaining the reasons I was looking for. Thank you Abhijit ❤
I thought about telling this video's creator that he was mistaken that the Mongols did not attack India. I finally decided to give him the correct history. Mongol history in Central Asia was written 20-30 years after, and hence carried errors. Genghis Khan sent two generals across Indus and they fought two years. Genghis himself wanted to pass India to go back to Asia. He changed mind after dissuasion by followers using the rhino in Indus as some omen. This Indus river thing was already two years after the two generals fought in India. The Mongols in the 1250s attacked India numerous times, and from Iran, the Mongols attacked India almost every 10 to 20 years.
Best part of the content : " History is lies that everyone agrees upon"
As a mongol i respect your knowledge of time
This is a very good analysis on the character of Jhinghis Khan. I have for many years admired this man reading anything I came across about this interesting and extremely powerful man. So much so, that I named my son Temujin after him. My experience is also that very many Indian people have very deep understanding of things as they really are.
This was a random recommendation on my youtube, and somehow I learned way more than i expected. Thanks, and great stuff.
They show Trishul and Swastik in Tengriism, and then Buddhism. As an Indian, these are clearly a brother people. Respect. 🙏 🇮🇳🇲🇳
@TALIB KHAN and where did you find all these?
@TALIB KHAN I'm definite that you're not being rational, you're just being carried away by your affinity towards your bloody Islamic sires.

you were so correct in saying (on the Ranveer allahbadia's podcast) that Indian history textbooks only talk about who ruled over India and do not instill any sense of pride in us Indians. It gives us a loser mentality. That is also probably why we Indians immigrate to other countries because we don't have any hope left.
Learned so much from this video on Genghis Khan. I WISH and HOPE that you soon make more videos like this. I am in 12th right now and I never felt more interested in history. Thank you very much.

Excellent presentation! I taught about Genghis Kahn years ago ... of how wherever he went he spread innovation ... in one Chinese region someone had invented glasses, in another they encountered ground beef and trousers which were elsewhere unknown. Genghis Kahn was a really cool dude.
Thank you so much!! Brilliant and I definitely hope it goes viral if it hasn't already 😃. My PhD is in philosophy I am no indianologist although I do teach seminars in Hinduism Buddhism and some of the Chinese traditions at my university (Mississippi State University). I wholeheartedly agree that Mongolian culture is very much underrepresented for the historiographical reasons that you most succinctly and eloquently expressed. I knew of Genghis Khan's sense of modesty and honor, Not to mention his organizational and military genius, combined of course with the unsurpassed equestrian might of Mongolian archers (basically born on horseback) but some of the details you described about his reasons for declaring war are quite an eye-opener. In short you might say that he adopted in practice much of what is described by scholars of war as just war theory. Thank you so much again!! I will definitely share this with my students.
Please write an unbiased paper on Hindu history. The west terribly needs it 🙏🏽🥺

Temujin (Genghis Khan) was not Mongolia. Fudan University nankai University many universities genetic engineering 🧬 research. Tiemuzhen gene is the Han gene of Yellow River and Yangtze River. Han =Khan was completely different from other Mongol tribes. In the 13th century, the Han and Tang dynasties were in chaos. Genghis Khan's family went into exile in Mobei. After Temuzhen was born and grew up, he conquered all the small tribes in Mobei in the name of the Han people and named it --Mongol
I learned more about Genghis Khan in this video than I learned in any US history class. Thank you for the enlightenment into a part of history that been washed over in my formal education.

Fantastic video! I've always wanted to learn more of the cultural side of this part of the world!
This was fascinating. Thank you for a new and informative perspective on a historical figure that went from being a more likely unknown man to a powerful and long remembered man.
i am from Nigeria. We've suffered from fault-lines of disunity for decades; fault-lines engineered by the British colonial power when the empire was putting together for economic purposes, the pieces that make up Nigeria today. Hearing about a similar divide and rule strategy against the Mongol tribes by China just brings it home for me. today there are deep divisions in Nigeria motivated politically at home and controlled by foreign interests. But I also see Nigerians fighting on to stay together under the new organically grown brand "Naija". However we are sorely in need of a powerful unifying figure (male or female) who can create for us what GK created for his people, uniting and forge them into a single national entity. Thank you so much for this presentation, Abhijit. Most informative and inspiring.
They did the same with India
Your society is not alone bro. They did the same in India too. However the long past history and the continuous Civilisation that goes thousands of years in the BCE era certainly helped India.
Honestly India is a name given by Greek scholars in BCE. The Persians called us Hindus.
What we call ourselves the name of the land from thousands of years is Bharata. And the people are called Bharatiyas.
Nigeria never existed until the British created the nation of Nigeria. There are thousands of languages in Nigeria, with hundreds of different tribes.
@@moefinesse9878 first of all, we do not have thousands of languages in Nigeria. Secondly, does the existence of multiple languages in a country make it less of a country? I think not. Thirdly, the same Britian was cobbled together from different ethnic groups. That's the way it is for a lot of countries. Having said that, what exactly is the point you are making?
You're most welcome, Toba. Best wishes to you and Nigeria.

@Ranjit Tyagi It's western propaganda my friend, this is what happens when Europe and westerners dictate history, do you know Genghis Khan is seen as a barbarian and ruthless conquerer in the west? That's becuase his commanders fought some wars in Poland, Europe and when you're an enemy of someone who can dictate your history, you will painted as a ruthless barbarian and conquerer.
@@zorozoro2495 There's one famous lie that Alexandre lost at the battle of hydaspus river by Porus, which is not true.

Thank you sir for your wonderful narration on the life of Chengis Khan and the reasons of not invading India. Although there is no historical written evidence on that but the reasons yyou have provided are most accurate, true and logical.
I am not a mongolian neither Indian but your analysis on this is fascinating and really learned a lot.why Ginghis Khan did not invade india shows that he has God in his heart.
@True light no, they were turks who invaded india, and previously have been kicked by mongols
@True light no, turks have not originated from mongols. They do have some commonality in origin but so does the every human being on earth. But through medieval ages, both were different, turks were somewhere turkmenistan and kazakhastan, and mongols around mongolia and southern Russia. They have different languages and culture. And it was the mongols only, who kicked the ass of turks and forced large number of them to today's turkey. And mughal king babur claimed to have his mother from mongols but there is no proof and it was a trend among turkic and other rulers to associate themselves to mongols and genghis khan. Even if some had mongol mothers, does it make them half or full mongol??? 😏absurd
@True light What you said is Kinda true but kinda wrong we can't say like the turks originated from The mongols yes essentially the turks and the mongols had the same culture but afterwards the turks started following Islam and the turko mongols that you are talking about are the ones that followed the Islamic culture. Yes one of their parents was mongol but yet they followed the culture which their Turkic parent followed not the one that mongols followed. So they are the for springs of Genghis khan is just for the sake of saying. The Religious , Cultural , ethical value that they followed were totally different from that what Genghis khan followed. So comparing them with Genghis khan is just baseless.
@True light turks are NOT mongols, mongolian belongs to tungusic languages of korean japanese and siberian, turks are tartars who were servants of mongols
@@denvergamingzone9766 No NO commonality between Mongols are turks, Mongols are steppe people, turks are farmers who migrated from munczhuria region in northern chi 0na
I learned more about Genghis Khan in 22 minutes than I ever learned in high school or college combined! Thank you!

I love India and the mysteries and history ❤
It's not often my mind is completely changed about something, but this is one of those times.
Also, it's ridiculous to compare Alexander to Genghis, given that Alexander started off as a king (after probably murdering his father) with the best army in the world his father had built and trained, while Genghis started with nothing.
One of them was also educated by Aristotle
@@j.d.1856 The other likely studied the art of war by Sun Tzu, which likely trumps anything Aristotle could teach about war and military strategy.

It's a good thing you added "Likely " . Doubting the abilities of one of the greatest minds in antiquity seems a little brash, even when comparing him to the great Sun Tzu.
@@arkmennis1 Aristotle was not known for military strategy. As brilliant as he was, that's not his expertise.

I had always wondered how Mongols who were tolerant and accepting of all religions (which shows compassion) would ever be genocidal. Your analysis makes me finally understand their core motive for expansion and conquering. Little is also understood about discipline in those time, fear was a major ingredient in discipline.
I think it's that they wanted to avoid uprisings while they expanded so they wouldn't have to waste troops on quelling internal affairs.
That and they didn't really care about pushing a theocracy.
