There are so many similarities between the Mamluks of Delhi and Egypt ; being founded by Aibaks, influential women Razia & Shajar, and ofc defeating Mongols
Yup true
They all come from Kazakhstan. Kipchak Kings
@@nurithegolden5755 The founders and majority of the armies of both Mamluk Sultanates, yes
@@nurithegolden5755Qalawun, the Aibaks, Iltutmish, and most importantly Baybars are some of the most notorious of the Mamluk-Kipchak Sultans
@@nurithegolden5755but indian mamluks came from karalok turks modern day uzbekistan
Indian history is pretty damn cool. I wish we could see more medieval India inspiration in video games
be quiet, gaymer
Total War? Crusader Kings? Civ?
@@miniondaechir that's only 3 series, and total war only has India in one game. And they only feature India. You don't really get to experience the history or culture.

I didn't know Delhi had such a rich and complex history. Thank you for this Epimetheus
It's not rich it's dark period od indian history
@@navinsingh5564 Indians hate it solely because it was a muslim kingdom and not a hindu, otherwise they would have loved it.
If you're visiting Delhi, you can see the remnants of the Delhi fortress near kashmiri gate, all the way to old delhi and chandni chowk. The area is very crowded but the food is incredible. Highly recommend checking out Karim's restaurant, which is in front of Jama mosque for some authentic Mughal cuisine. In southern Delhi, you can see the Qutub minar (tower), which stands from the times of the Delhi sultanate. Another popular spot is Hauz khas, which has remnants of a complex which dates to the Khiljis. Even older complexes can be found in Indraprastha.
Thank god you’re back brother, I was worried for a second. I’m not quite ready to sit down and watch all of this yet because I’m about to pass out.
It’s been a while, but I’m glad to see activity again. The history community is sleeping on you brother.
Have a great Christmas and New Year.
Thanks man! I appreciate that :D
@@EpimetheusHistorycan you make a video about the Taino people of the Caribbean before colonization.
@@EpimetheusHistory We need more people like you spreading good knowledge
Grear to see you covering more Indian History! Id love to see you do an episode on the Chalukyas and Cholas, as I've been reading the book 'Lords of the Deccan' by Anuridh Kanisetti. Its a great read for anyone interested in Narrative History and the period at large.
Also if you're in Delhi (and not a vegetarian/vegan) I highly suggest Haji Mohammad Hussein's fried chicken at Jama Masjid.
You got good taste! Manu Pillai's books are also pretty good.
Lmao Aniruddh Kanisetti is more like a hogwashed pseudo historian who is more like an internet theorist than an actual professional.
Anirudd Kanisetti is not a very neutral historian. He has a narrative that he wants to display and has huge biases and cherry picks centre pieces of history whilst leaving other bits out all to simply fulfil his narrative.
If you want to learn about a more neutral historian but offers multiple perspectives, search Jay Vardhan Singh
That’s not Indian history but Turkic
The artwork for Razia was gorgeous.
Thank you, glad you liked my drawing :)
Yeah, she looked like a sweet one.
I am very excited you're back! I love your videos, especially the narration, visuals, and most importantly presenting the information in a digestable manner.
Welcome back, Epimetheus.
The rise and fall of imperial dynasties and the endless cycle of military takeovers that quickly descend into civil wars upon the death of the conquering ruler or mismanagement by unworthy successors is brought into very stark light by your videos.
Glad to see fresh stuff coming out from epimethius!
as usual, your narration plus the beautiful arts make the videos a real treat to watch!
Glad to see you back friend, your content is great
The legend @Epimetheus is back! Love your videos dude!
Great vid man. Keep up the good work.
Love seeing your videos, the art assets and maps are always top notch!
one of the best history videos i have seen. keep it up
Nice video man, glad you are back!
Always a good day when a new Epimetheus video drops
All the history! I find it all fascinating and am glad that I stumbled across your channel.
Glad you're back 🎉
Thank you for this neglected and rich history.
The narrators voice is excellent for the job .
Thank you .
The best historic site in delhi include mughal monuments like humayuns tomb, red fort, jamia masjid and slave dynasty monuments like qutb minar and the whole qurb complex, and as far food is concerned near jamia masjid there is Al jawahar, asalm chicken, qureshi kabab, karims, as well as in jamia nagar there is ballimaran and javid nihari, u should try these especially their mutton muglai cusine
I also heard that the Mullah Do Pyaza is the best there 😂
@@stormshadow5283 yes the dish as well as rhe person is famous here😂😂
@@yameenulhaq280
But now the muslims have been cornered in old Delhi which now is called central Delhi in which they are only 30% of the population in central Delhi
And there are close to no muslims in other districts of Delhi and new delhi (close to 5%) 🥲
Delhi has now become a Hindu and Sikh city 🥲😭
@@DhruvSharma5972 100 percent right.. Actually many Muslims migrated to Pakistan after partition and Muslims remain a minoriry in delhi around 13 percent and mainly concentrated in old delhi chandani chowk... But muslim influence is widely felt across delhi be it in food or monuments
all those are formed after destroying Indian monuments and temples and ur mughal buildings are formed using remnants of hindu temples and architecture. Learn history for real without living in lies
Terrific work as always mate
Incredible video as usual! You've taught me a lot about this region
Can’t wait for the extended version of this, one of my favorite series on CZcams
Great video! I really enjoy your videos!
Thank you for the clear narrative with out unneeded noisy background music
Good to see you back, brother
I see you've made another fantastic video as always! I appreciate you covering an empire that isn't discussed nearly enough in the west! With that said though, I would appreciate it even more if you start including sources in the description of the video or in a pinned comment so that people can verify the information in your video. It's not that I don't trust you, I'd just like to see the sources you're using to come to your conclusions.
incredible video, this is such an underrated part of history which I didn't know at all. So many fascinating characters and events
As always brother, it’s a pleasure to watch your videos!
Amazingly detailed and informative❤❤
Hey, nice to see you back 👊🏻👍🏻
it’s always a good day when epimetheus uploads
Great video, keep it up!
Yay!! Video from Epimetheus!

WOOOOOOO YEA BABE EPIMETHEUS UPLOADED
Exellent video mate thank you!
Ayyy new Epimetheus video!
Epimetheus coming in clutch when I’m looking for something to listen to while I iron some shirts.
There's "out of control" drunk, and then there's "riding an elephant while throwing money at people" drunk.
I have been reading a lot of Asian history lately, but Medieval Indian kingdoms are something I really need to do more work on. Thank you as ever for giving me this motivation to get back into my hobby...
Thanks for this! I need to learn more about Indian history!
Great video!❤
Great work !
The man is back and he was cookin 🔥
I'm always so grateful for history documentaries about surprisingly not often described sultanate of Delhi
Excellent video!
The legend is back!!!
Epimetheus 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Really interesting as usual.
This is fascinating. Thank you for creating these videos and sharing your knowledge. You have a truly unique and awesome channel. The depictions of the incompetent brothers were really funny btw 😂
Extra credits vibes!Good one!
Great vid!
Despite the challenges and complexities, India's history is a source of inspiration, showcasing the ability of a nation to evolve while preserving its timeless traditions. It is a narrative that continues to unfold, inviting us to explore the tapestry of its past and appreciate the resilience, diversity, and cultural wealth that define this extraordinary nation.
Welcome back king
really interesting video, thanks
Great video.
great story teller,from GREAT INDIA
Such a good video.
Interesting piece
Can you cover the kannujj tripartite struggle next? Or maybe the Gajapati empire?
Chadjapati Empire....destroyer of the Mlecchas ❤
Welcome back brother ! And thanks for this episode !
Also can you do a video about the different tribes and ethnicities that fought in Genghis Khan horde and who they are today for example the Uzbeks, Kazakhs and Kyrgyz nations.
its always a good day when epimetheus uploads. also i would love if u made videos on the saraswati civilisation
You are legitimately the greatest history creator on this app
Awesome video, please consider making videos on the Jiroft Culture, Sao Civilization, the Land of Punt, the Missisippian Culture, Dalma Culture and Bactria-Margiana Archaeological Complex. Please consider making a video on Tartessos and Paleohispanic Iberian peoples in general.
babe wake up, new epimetheus just dropped
It was a nice video and no hatred it was funny how he said Delhi and sultanate and (etc) many more
I enjoy your stuff
The drawings are just so good!! How do you prepare them? 😮😮😮
Babe wake up new epimetheus video
Would you consider doing a similar videos about Deccan kings? A lot of dynasties there dated back all the way to antiquity and lasted well into the middle ages.
Oh.... Thanks so much!!!
Great that you are back, but what happened to your voice?
One of my biggest problems with contemporary historians, even independent ones on CZcams, is that they act like no culture outside of Western Europe existed unless Europe wanted something from it.
My favorite thing about Epimetheus is that when he covers world history, he covers WORLD history. India especially is overlooked and he's the only quality source I can find on it and for that I respect him massively.
That's colonialism based Euro-Centricity for you.
@@FDSixtyNinenobody is keeping anybody from talking about non european history.
@@konradvonschnitzeldorf6506Who said anyone is keeping people from it?
@@GrigRP I am just tired of people complaining about europeans talking about european history lmao. It even happened in University, if you wanna study non-european history maybe expect it from non-europeans.
many contemporary historians are more aware than you give them credit for. It also depends on where the historian is from and is capable of.
Thank you! 👏👏👏
He hasn't uploaded in 5 months, yet he comes out with this banger. Thanks!
Every CK3 player can relate to iltutmish's pain
Ghurrid also. imagine invading india with an elongated border gore just to die without an heir
@@Rayan2Musikahan Bro, I just got the Ghurrid achievement in CK3 and I was so confused why I got a notification about the Ghurrids from youtube
Good video
Babe wake up Epimetheus just posted
Interesting, please make a video on the full history of military slavery and please make a video on the Assyrian Independence Movement/Assyrian autonomy in the Middle East. Also please make a video on Tartessos and the Tartessian language. Please make a video on Sogdia too.
History of my homeland ❤️
Nice Prequel ref ^^
A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one!
The city of Delhi has such a rich and varied history,a tapestry formed over the centuries
Hope you're well brother.. Great to see you back with another fantastic video!
some indian dynasties you should cover: cholas, chalukyas, pandyas, tripartite war dynasties
Thank you
Could you also cover Tibet someday?
Qutb ud Din Aibak is buried outside Lohari gate in Lahore. He did not have a grand grave until the 1970's when the premier of the time heard that Aibak did not have a tomb and sought to remedy that. His tomb is a simple one that does not do the man justice but is better than a simple grave.
Bhutto or Zia?
Delhi Sultan’s after a few years of stability: invades Bengal.
Bengal after a few years of instability: fuck Delhi
The Chalukyas or the Hoysalas of the Deccan could use a video, I think there's less content on them as compared to the Cholas or Vijayanagara.
Do a video on Finland.
Well done! Just one important point , like khaljis and lodhis , seyeds were also ,Afghan.
Would love to see a video about Tamerlane.
The many medieval/early modern age Sultanates of India all have such interesting stories! This was continued in the form of for example the Nizam of Hyderabad until you could really day the partition of British India and the dissolution of the princely states.
Nizam was the biggest traitor
To Mughal in 1857 & To Maratha
First state to join subsidiary alliance of British
It was such a tragic time for India. Wish they never invaded 😓
@@dwarasamudra8889there was nothing tragic about it
Far better than radical hindus who were fighting with each other lol
@@user-uj2tk2tv3zwhat do you mean by radical hindus?? There was no hindutva nonsense back then. It's just like how Christian states fought against each other in Europe. Even Muslim states fought among themselves if they had a good excuse like if the opponent was shia or other sect of islam.
Razia was quite a woman for that age to revolt.
Sounds like THA QUEEN 👑
She was also a bloodthirsty slaughterer of the indigenous Hindu people
She was.. Even to this day there are many folk tales and poems dedicated to her.
Razi was an awful ruler. Sure, she's a strong women and managed to fight her way to the top in a world dominated by misogynistic men at the time, but her rule was awful with her religious persecution. She destroyed the Kashi Vishveshwar Temple in Varanasi and built the Razia Mosque on top of it. This temple was as important for Hindus as Mecca Masjid is for Muslims or Vatican or St Paul's is for Christians
@@dwarasamudra8889 number one, wow I didn't know about the Kashi Temple being pillaged by Razia, will look into that. Thanks.
Lastly, Vatican is not important for Christians. It's only for Roman Catholics.
Orthodox Christians (who make 20% of Christians) and Protestants (who make 40% of Christians) have nothing to do with Vatican.
But yeah, if you want to relate on the importance on a Holy Place for Christians, then it has to be "the Church of Holy Sepulchure" or even "the Church of Nativity" which are significant for almost all Christians in the world irrespective of their denominations.
The Crusades started only when the Fatimid Caliph Billah burned the Church of Holy Sepulchure that led to the Christian-Muslim fights in The Holy Land.
I am very distraught with hearing that even Kashi Temple was pillaged. I never knew about that.
Is there any fund or organisation that I can donate to rebuild it? I'll do my contribution.
Thanks.
@@ritikshaw5868 folk tales like what? Your masturbation fantasies are not folk tales lmao
One correction, Delhi wasn't an insignificant "fortified town" It was indeed the capital of the Tomars a Rajput dynasty, It was established as the capital city by King Angapala 2 in the 11th century and was named Dhillika before being renamed as Delhi and before being named Dhillika it was called Indraprastha which was the capital of the Pandavas in Mahabharata, Dhillika was eventually conquered by Chauhans another Rajput dynasty and was ruled by them until it was lost to the Islamic barbarians.
It was insignificant, India itself was insignificant until muslims came and made it into a major imperial power.
