    I'm Central Asian Turkmen. I went to a boarding school run by Anatolian Turks.
    When I asked my Turkish teacher if we were cousin nations, he said "No, we are literally one nation, separated by the Iron Curtain for a generation".
    This makes our relationship with the Anatolian Turks, and other Middle Eastern Turkmen, much closer.
    We are not just one of the Turkic nations, like the Kazakhs or Kyrgyz.
    Historically speaking, until very recently, all the Oghuz Turks were called Turkmen.
    I have met people from these countries.
    From Turkmenistan, to Iraq, Syria, Azerbaijan, and Turkiye, there is a linguistic and cultural continuum.
    I can't begin to explain the warm and brotherly feeling I got when I met them for the first time, and realized our dialects are for about 70% mutually intelligible, and that rises up to 95% after listening to each speak for few hours.
    I get emotional just talking about it 😅
    Thank you for making this 🙏

      The real thanks needs to be given to anyone who appreciates learning, regardless of age. Practical wisdom is accepting that we always have much to learn, regardless of age. In other words, that you still keep yourself open to learning, despite having experienced so much, is the real triumph, and deserving of admiration.

    Actually, the Byzantines and Armenias had prior knowledge of the Turks when they were still known as the "Western Göktürk Empire". They had good relations with the Byzantines, and were allied with them against the Persians. So the Byzantines knew much about the Turks, and their ways, and probably so did the Armenians.

      @@bigsmoke1787 it did actually happen , the Sassanids were blockading the Eastern Romans from the Silk Road trade and the Gokturks would open a new route through Central Asia and Crimea. This act of securing the passage of trade from China to Crimea allowed the Byzantines to be capable of waging war on the Sassanids. If not for this trade route they would crumble under the blockade.
      Gokturk armies would also help the Eastern Romans against the Sassanids in the Caucasus region. The Gokturks would also capture the region known as "Transoxiana" during these events.

      2) Not exactly true. We are only talking about northern India here. And this is bound to trigger some folks... but by no means is India dominated if the rest of India had being un-breachable from the north.
      When you talk about domination, do you mean mostly culture, military positions, governance or men of arms? For example, let's say that a Turkic state had controlled a patch of Northern India for about 100 years or more. The same former empire used to have contentious wars with their neighbouring kingdoms to the south. Then wouldn't you say that by then, even the majority of natives will define themselves as being a citizen of that dynasty? So when they fight and make incursions down south, would that be a Turkic military endeavour or 'Indian'?
      Truth of the matter is when analysing past history through modern lens, we add inaccurate unnecessary labels and assumptions about the past.

      @@hannibalbarca2928 I am sorry to say that your entire comment was a waste of time to read. I ask a few questions about the actual impact of native and turkic culture in northern India, among other things. I also questioned your claim that it dominated India for 1000 years if most of the history many independent Hindu kingdoms survived and thrived in the plateau and in the tip of India. I also merely mentioned the powerful impact that the vice-versa of culture had on the rulers and Turks coming into India and the overall contributions of natives to a new dynasty after the centuries of initial rule. Though I presume it must be nice to have black and white cookie cutter analysis from an armchair general like yourself. Where entire regions simply become coloured one dye after a few selective factors.
      And you proceed to rant about the Spanish language, colonial Brazil (which was composed of African, Japanese, Italian etc culture which exactly proved my point ironically about Brazil not being a Portuguese culture genius) and sex slaves. The only disingenuous one here is you buddy. Unless you're interested in a discussion, I have no need to waste further time on you.
      I must have hit a nerve to illicit such a vile unwarranted response. Maybe because a matter of fact is, your cultures have always had to rely on more advanced cultures to elevate your own culture to a higher cultural point of development, which is almost always one direction. Hell, if you're proud of your culture's achievements at being good at killing people and stealing people's ideas, more power to you. You must also can't stand the fact, that the country continue to run itself through the expertise of the natives, with nothing more than a regime change and a new parasitic class needing welfare to stay on top, as was the case for many nomadic conquerors.

      ‘’The History’’ was written by the Largest Empires such as British, Mongol, Great Selcuq, Ottoman, Russia, Spanish, Ummayad, GokTurk Khaganate, Khazar Khaganate, Roman, Timurid etc. They had built the world map, while others were living under their rules. Possible ways of measuring their size include area, population, economy, and power. They had consistent power and strategy to spread across the Continents and huge areas and build a system to manage countries and its people. There are many nationalities, unfortunately, who had been disappeared as a result of the war. They are those, who resisted without having compatible capability and resources. BCE (Before the Common Era) etc that people share today, are Purely Myth and subjective views of some individuals. Last 1000 years still may have more relevant and accurate information, which still being interpreted by people. However, sounds like only Turkish Empires/ Dynasty has left huge Turkish countries who is in current world map. They are Turkey, Kazakhstan, Kirgizstan, Turkmenistan, Azerbaijan, Uzbekistan.

      Anatolia is full of 6000 years of archaeological - historical - scientific and linguistic evidence belonging to the Sumerians, who were proven to be of Turk origin 100 years ago, but do you call this historiography and my history? 1016 huh! We are the indigenous race of Asia and we do not have the African gene in our Y DNA, nor did we spread to the world through Africa!!! We now have 40,000 years of genetically proven history. geneticist doctor Spencer Wells, dated 2005. Middle Eastern tribes do not come from the same origin as Africans, but they lived together for a long time and mixed with each other. The entire humanity of the world consists of the people belonging to these 3 races and the mingling of the tribes belonging to these 3 races. Jews and Palestinians are both middle eastern races but they are not like us! we don't kill our blood brothers who are aware of who they are, but they kill and murder without even looking at the tears in their eyes!!! I suggest you learn who really is who and what..!

    At last, a History of this part of the World, from their viewpoint! Most of what we have is from European sources, tainted by their past Political and Religious Aditudes towards this part of the World. What I like most about your channel, is your ability to show all sides of History, without bias towards any one side and how they inneract with each other over time. Most of the older European History, is written as seen by the Culture or Nation of the Historian and often modified to fit their views of people's seen as Historical enemies of Europe. We want to look at the History of these People through their own eyes, to see them as they see themselves, the True History. Keep up the Great Work!

      @@fvefve12 I'll check that out, to truly understand History you have to see it from all sides, not just one. Its like learning about the Second World War with the American History taught in Highschool, a very condensed one sided version of what actually happened. By its nature, it only shows a brief version of what one Country did, leaving out ninity percent of what actually happened. For the other Countries involved, you get less than a paragraph, sometimes only a sentence or two. They encourage you to study the War on your own, as the library has much more detailed book's on the subject, few do and have a very one sided veiw of the War. I've read over twenty book's from different Countries and still learn new things I hadn't heard of, you just can't cover six years of a World War in any one book. History isn't the story of just one Country or Culture, it's a record of Humanity and how it inneracts with itself through time. If you just know about Germany from what Highschool History says, you think Evil Nazis! But if you study Germany from 1918 to 1939, you understand why Germany took the path it did and how the same thing could happen again. Thanks for the Information! The Crusades and the Politics/Religion behind it is a very convoluted time in History, with things like the Children's Crusades, which is very hard to understand today!

    The strength of the this steppe nomads is not in their horse archery. It's in their nomadic lifestyle. This nomads travel in caravan, with their families and livestock in tow. They are essentially a self-sustain army which help contribute to their impressive display of mobility. They are also used to live a frugal lifestyle, so they can go a long way with very little. Compare this to the settled people. Their army need a long and vulnerable supply line and a substantial amount of creature comfort just to keep their moral.

    You managed to give such a complex topic a diligent and intelligent analysis and presentation, so well done. Not very relevant over a year later, but in any case when you tackle complex topics like this in the future, the presentation side of things could benefit from some more clearly-delineated organisation, breaking-up or signposting the topic into sections (either using visual or auditory cues). It just might make it flow more easily.

    The real ecological disaster was the Turkish pastoralist's bringing millions of goats to Anatolia. Goats, like sheep, eat the grass down to it's crown and root-base, denuding the land and turning verdant fields into desert. The only reason sheep haven't been able to do this to the British Isles is due to the high rainfall levels, which replenish the grass more quickly. Still, the enclosure movement has drastically altered the ecology of the Scottish Highlands in a way that may be irreversible.

      I don’t think I agree with you. Inner Anatolia has always been a vast steppe which only had grass like plants. It’s because of the mountain ranges which surround the coastal lines that don’t let the mild climate inland. By the way we don’t have any deserts here in Turkey.
