The first Huns: Modu Chanyu and the Xiongnu Empire

- For millennia, the Eurasian Steppe Belt served as a barrier between the nomadic tribes to the north and the sedentary states to the south. But societies of both sides frequently clashed, especially on the East Asian side of the steppe belt. Long before Genghis Khan's Mongols conquered all of China and even prior to the expansion of Turkic identity thanks to the Göktürks, the first formal state within the nomadic steppe world was that of the Xiongnu - also called "Huna" (Huns). After gathering virtually all tribes of modern-day Mongolia, the Transbaikal and the Altai regions, the Xiongnu posed an imminent threat to the legendary Han Dynasty of China.
But unbeknownst to the general public is the fact that the Xiongnu were formed in response to frequent Chinese incursions into the steppe region, not the other way around. It was only after the foundation of the Xiongnu that nomadic peoples would migrate and conquer large parts of Eurasia. In a way, the "Huns" laid the foundation for future nomadic empires to come. The ethnic origins in turn may be shrouded in history, but there plenty of clues that point to specific tribal affiliations and subsequently a sophisticated political hierarchy. Further, this "empire" was more of a confederation with many tribes that were independent internally and only united in case of external threats.
Yet, there are two leaders that ruled with an iron fist and were among the most successful in steppe history: Tumen and Modu, also known as Teoman and Mete Han. Under their leadership, the Xiongnu tribes became so powerful that the Chinese were forced to build large parts of the Great Wall and even pay annual tributes to the nomads.
But how did the Xiongnu do that? Where did they really come from and what was their lasting legacy?
In this documentary, we are going to explore both the political system of the Xiongnu during their power-political height as well as the nomadic lifestyle within their territory, their connections to other peoples of Eurasia and, last but certainly not least, delve deep into the question whether the Xiongnu were Turkic or not.

All Xiongnu history is only recorded in China's history books in ancient Chinese. Without deep understanding of ancient Chinese, no one, including modern Chinese people, is able to understand Xiongnu's history. However, westerners have the courage to interpret the Xiongnu history arbitrarily to their needs.

The earliest reference to the Mongols classifies them as a Tang dynasty tribe of Shiwei during the eighth century. It was only after the fall of the Liao dynasty in 1125 that they became an important tribe on the Central Asian steppe, but tribal wars weakened their power over the ensuing century. During the thirteenth century, the term Mongol was used to refer to the Mongolic and Turkic tribes who fell under the control of Genghis Khan. The Mongols are primarily a shamanist society; their central deity is the sky god Tenger.

Hey, excellent feature on this Xiongnu Empire, which is one of my pet historical topic to go back into and I enjoyed your retelling very much.However I have 2 gripes that I need to share with you
10:59 The Chinese never attempted to "mispronounce" his name or any other Xiongnu terms mentioned here, including Tengri. It is the limits of Transliteration practiced by languages not using alphabets and a reverse case can be seen by Old Turkic languages (not modern ones with alphabet system) pronouncing contemporary Chinese officials and Emperors' names.
21:44 This is actually one of the driving factor that pushed Emperor Wu of Han to assemble a punitive force that will deal with the Xiongnu problem once and for all; in the eyes of the Han Imperial establishment the Heqin policy were a humiliating drain in the Chinese coffers while the nomads proved they do not respect the treaty by continuously raiding the nation they are supposedly allied with. However, Han Wudi's exploits along with his two greatest generals, Wei Qing & Huo Qubing would be best left for a tale in another channel... :D
If case you have not been to China, you should travel to Xi'an of China and visit the mausoleums of Emperor Wudi, General Wei Qing and General Huo Qubing in the suburb of the ancient city

Outstanding Presentation! Thank you for providing this information.
Excellent overview and summary of a part of history relating the Huns and the Xiongnu in which there is quite a bit of controversy.
Thank you for excellent work.
"The Xiongnu first appear in Chinese historical records about the 5th century BCE, when their repeated invasions prompted the small kingdoms of North China to begin erecting what later became the Great Wall. The Xiongnu became a real threat to China after the 3rd century BCE, when they formed a far-flung tribal confederation under a ruler known as the chanyu, the rough equivalent of the Chinese emperor’s designation as the tianzi (“son of heaven”). They ruled over a territory that extended from western Manchuria (Northeast Provinces) to the Pamirs and covered much of present Siberia and Mongolia. The Xiongnu were fierce mounted warriors who were able to muster as many as 300,000 horseback archers on their periodic intrusions into North China, and they were more than a match for the much less-maneuverable chariots of the Chinese. The completion of the Great Wall along the whole of China’s northern frontier during the Qin dynasty (221-206 BCE) slowed but did not stop the Xiongnu. The early Han dynasty rulers attempted to control them by marrying their leaders to Chinese princesses. But Xiongnu raids against China continued periodically until the Han emperor Wudi (reigned 141/140-87/86 BCE) initiated a fiercely aggressive policy against the nomads, sending expeditions into central China to outflank them and to negotiate alliances with their enemies. These expeditions led to the Chinese conquest of the state of Chosŏn in northern Korea and southern Manchuria and the Chinese exploration of Turkistan."

There are 56 ethnic groups in China. There are also many nomadic peoples in the Mongolian Plateau. Thinking that all 56 ethnic groups in China are Han is as ridiculous as saying that all nomads (tribes) are Huns or Turks. China has detailed records of each nomadic people. Because all the nomads are at war with the Han. During the Warring States period, Qin, Zhao, and Yan built Great Walls to deal with different nomadic peoples. The Han people had 5,340 wars and civil wars with all ethnic groups. After the Qin State wiped out two nomadic peoples and defeated the Xiongnu, they unified and built all the Great Walls. Finding your own ancestors requires a basis. And use genetics effectively. In Türkiye today, the real Turks are the yellow race. Genetic tests show that 90% are Eastern Roman Greeks and Armenians who were conquered by pseudo-Turks. English-speaking Filipinos and Indians, and East Africans are not British. Likewise, speaking Turkic (the lingua franca of the steppe) is not Turkic.
@@user-ln3bg8bi3hwow. Respect
The Xiongnu were defeated and divided by the Han Dynasty, with some fleeing to Eastern Europe, some under the jurisdiction of the Han Dynasty, and some regularly paying tribute to the Han Dynasty until the Three Kingdoms period after the fall of the Han Dynasty. The southern Xiongnu wanted to break away from the Han Dynasty and gain independence, but were defeated by Cao Cao. After the end of the Three Kingdoms period, the new successor dynasty, the Jin Dynasty, had the opportunity to rise again due to civil war and corruption. The southern Xiongnu seized the opportunity to occupy the northwest region of China and establish the Han Dynasty, Yes, you guessed it right. The southern Xiongnu claimed to be the inheritors of the Han Dynasty, but the New Han Dynasty quickly perished, with some of the remaining Xiongnu people integrating into China and some being replaced by the Rouran tribe in the north
@@user-ln3bg8bi3hAnatolians are neither "Turk" nor "Greek". They are Anatolian: their own ancient race. Moreover, Turks in Turkey don't claim to be an ethnic group, but instead a nationality. As the Father of the Türks, Atatürk, said: "How happy is the one who says 'I am a Turk'". Similarly, in Central Asia, the several nomadic tribes were united under the name "Xiongnu". Ask someone from Turkey today what they are. No matter how different they may look, they will most certainly answer "I am a Turk".
I'm Hungarian by blood and my family hailed from Transylvania. I acknowledge my people's relationship to Turkic tribes, King Attila had Chuvas body guards, and Árpád has DNA connecting him to the Bashkirs as well. One issue I have is when Tukologists make statements where they attempt to exclude Hungarians from having a solid connection to the Huns and Magyars. My relatives are Székély and it is well known that this Transylvanian tribe has direct lineage to Attila, also the Székély clan name is derived from the Scythians.

There is an elaboration I have to clarify to you, Emperor Gao Zu is the founder of Han Dynasty, and the population of China at the time of his battle with Mete can't be 65,000,000( this record of population was at least 200 years later, when the West Han Dynasty nearly collapsed), the real population could be less than 10,000,000, after many years of civil wars when Qin Dynasty collapsed.
Nice video anyway.
likely be fake，or Due to errors in household registration during the chaos, the Xiongnu raids were limited to the vicinity of Shanxi, and it was impossible for the Han Dynasty's population to suffer large losses from such a small-scale raid.
For the record, the Huns and Xiong Nu are literally the same. In ancient China and still in some old existing Chinese dialects, Xiong Nu is pronounced Hun Nu or Hyun Nu.

Although the Xiongnu were ethnically heterogeneous as a whole, it appears that variability was highly related to social status. Genetic heterogeneity was highest among retainers of low status, as identified by their smaller and peripheral tombs. These retainers mainly displayed ancestry related to the Chandman/Uyuk culture (characterized by a hybrid Eurasian gene pool combining the genetic profile of the Sintashta culture and Baikal hunter-gatherers (Baikal EBA)), or various combinations of Chandman/Uyuk and Ancient Northeast Asian Ulaanzuukh/Slab Grave profiles.[247]
On the contrary, high status Xiongnu individuals tended to have less genetic diversity, and their ancestry was essentially derived from the Eastern Eurasian Ulaanzuukh/Slab Grave culture, or alternatively from the Xianbei, suggesting multiple sources for their Eastern ancestry.
😆 OK, lets face reality here. 99% of people in Turkey are not descendants of Mongols or Xiongnu. Real Mongol, XiongNu are EAST ASIANS (Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Mongols). 99% of modern day Turkey are descendants of XiongNu slaves, the 1% that look like East Asian are the REAL XiongNu.

You are lying. Early Western Xiongnu demonstrated Chandman Scytho-Siberian origins. The early Eastern Xiongnu were mixed Chandman and East Asian Ulaanzuukh/Slab Grave profiles. The later Xiongnu were extremely mixed with additional influxes of Han and East Asians displacing paternal lines. The Kimaks-Kipchaks and Karluks who dominated Asia in the Middle Ages were directly Huns. Ancestral to the minor some Turkic-speaking groups in Russia. Whereas the modern Mongols and central Asian Turks are the late Xianbei-Xiongnu 13th century.

@@soniagheza391The first Hun ruler Touman, today Teoman, established this empire with a small state. While the Mongols lived in the easternmost point of Asia, this state was established far from the Mongolian geography and you shamelessly call the Huns Mongols.

In the case of Early Pre-Proto-Mongolic, certain loanwords in the Mongolic languages point to early contact with Oghur (Pre-Proto-Bulgaric) Turkic, also known as r-Turkic. These loanwords precede Common Turkic (z-Turkic) loanwords and include:
• Mongolic ikere (twins) from Pre-Proto-Bulgaric ikir (versus Common Turkic ekiz)
• Mongolic hüker (ox) from Pre-Proto-Bulgaric hekür (Common Turkic öküz)
• Mongolic jer (weapon) from Pre-Proto-Bulgaric jer (Common Turkic yäz)
• Mongolic biragu (calf) versus Common Turkic buzagu
• Mongolic siri- (to smelt ore) versus Common Turkic siz- (to melt)
The above words are thought to have been borrowed from Oghur Turkic during the time of the Xiongnu.
Later Turkic peoples in Mongolia all spoke forms of Common Turkic (z-Turkic) as opposed to Oghur (Bulgharic) Turkic, which withdrew to the west in the 4th century. The Chuvash language, spoken by 1 million people in European Russia, is the only living representative of Oghur Turkic which split from Proto Turkic around the 1st century AD.
Words in Mongolic like dayir (brown, Common Turkic yagiz) and nidurga (fist, Common Turkic yudruk) with initial *d and *n versus Common Turkic *y are sufficiently archaic to indicate loans from an earlier stage of Oghur (Pre-Proto-Bulgaric). This is because Chuvash and Common Turkic do not differ in these features despite differing fundamentally in rhotacism-lambdacism (Janhunen 2006). Oghur tribes lived in the Mongolian borderlands before the 5th century, and provided Oghur loanwords to Early Pre-Proto-Mongolic before Common Turkic loanwords.

The most important function of any steppe empire is to apply the türe (the law)..

To assume Xiongnu had euro-central Asia origin just because present day Turkish is spoken there is just wrong thinking and goes against the very idea of Xiongnu migration. It's much more likely that the Turkish originated as an East Asia/Central Asia language and later migrated westward together with the Xiongnu.

撑犁 (Chēng lí)
撑犁 term in Chinese inscriptions is associated with the old Turkic tengri. Tengri means sky.
瓯脱 (Ōu tuō)
瓯脱 means room[7].
Borrowed from Proto-Turkic *otag[8], also reconstructed as *ōtag. Although linguists concentrate on *otag, since long vowels are not preserved in languages that need to be protected, there are also those who claim that it is derived from the Proto-Turkic word *ōtwhich means fire(see Proto-Turkic Vocabulary lesson). *otag means tent or room, but also fireplace is suggested.
头曼 (Tóu màn)
The name Touman is likely related to a word meaning '10,000, a myriad' Old Turkic tümän
Tengri means Heavens, like Tian.

There are many mistakes in your video. The decline of the Xiongnu was not during the Huhanxie period, but rather during the younger brother of Junchen Chanyu, Yizhuxie Chanyu. After Wei Qing captured the Yinshan area, the Han Dynasty gained strategic initiative over Xiong. In the Battle of Mobei in 119 BC, nearly 90000 Xiongnu people were eliminated before the Xiongnu completely declined

The Hunno-Bulgar Dulo clan is a link between the Xiongnu & European Huns, since the word "Dulo" is a Slavic derivation of the original Turkic "Yula" which ultimately was a Xiongnu tribe

@nenenindonu xiongnu was a nomadic tribe originated from the C-shaped steppes of Yellow River in Northern China, it was a prelude to the Xianbei and Rouran emipires, which are all proto-Mongolic tribes. the Turkics were Altaic before migrating westward to the steppes between Altai Mountain and Caspian Sea. Following the Turkic were the Khitans, which is also proto-Mongolic. apart from karakhitan, the Khitan emipre were eliminated by Jurchens from manchuria, formed by mixed blood of Han people and Sumo Mohe, Those remaining Khitan, Turkic and non Turkic nomadic tribes that did not migrate and stayed near the Gobi desert eventually become Mongols. then as Mongols conquer central Eurasian steppes, some Mongol tribes converted themselves to Islam and become Turkic, which eventually become Central Asian ethnicities.

Hi Den! How can I write you a message? I need to consult with one project regarding history of nomads. Regards from Kazakhstan
Hello Khans Den! Thanks a lot for all your efforts about your presentations! However, I think you dont know much about turkic ancestry just as much as eurocentric written turkic history. Eurocentric written turkic history starts just in 1st century BC and do not match with recent futuristic genetic ydna studies.
As a curious follower and rational, sensible researcher, I was looking into language maps and individual haplogroup maps and I have realized some topics without being a genetic or linguistic scientist. Some language subgroups do match with some ydna haplogroups. First of all, I want to give my discoveries:
C2 - proto austronesians
C3 - mongolic, tungusic
C4 - australians, pacificans
D - tibetans, burmans, ainu
E1a - niger-congo, bantu
E1b1 - kushitic, egyptians, hellenic
E1b2 - berberic, nortwest africans
F - proto indoeuropean, early farmers
G - georgians, caucasian arians
H - south indians, partly dravidians
I1 - germanic, nordic, anglic visigoths
I2 - slavic, balkanic, ukrainian ostrogoths
J1 - arabic, aramic, semitic, hebrew
J2 - grecoromans, persians, baktrians
K - proto agglutinative language speakers
L & T - sanskrit, vedic, west indians
M & S - sundaland, papuans
N - finnic, uralic, north asians
O1 - south chinese, sinotic
O2 - indonesians, austroasiatic
O3 - manchurians, koreanic, japonic
P - proto northeast asians, altai, tuva, nivkh
Q - yeniseians, native americans
R - uyghur turkic, tagar culture
R1* - altai, tuva, uyghur turkic
R1a - european, indian huns, oghur/oghuz
R1b - asian, european saka/scythians, bashkirs
R2 - dravidians, sri lanka
As you can see C3, P (possibly hunnic, mongolic) haplogroups are northeast asians as descendants of C3, N, O3, P ancient northern east asians (ANEA) as classified in wiki. Their ancestor K2 was located in southeast asia together with D tibetoburmans and C2 austronesians, but they left there by a reason and migrated to north china (Liao region) as mutated to C3, N, O1, O2, O3, P as you can see their linkage.
Also, if we inspect language families uralic-altaic languages match with C3, N, O3, P haplogroups. Even O1 haplogroup matches with sinotic language. As a new language family (not exactly proven, but today accepted) Dene-Caucasian language family is also agglutinative language family.
Some indoeuropean lovers intentionally distort genetic studies by erasing linkage between P and Q, R haplogroups. Q and R haplogroups and their descendants R1, R1a, R1b, R2 are actually mutated from P (possibly hunnic) northeast asians. As P haplogroup are related to uralic-altaic people, their descendants should have linguistic linkage to uralic-altaic and related dene-caucasian (also maybe polisynthetic) languages.
Actually there are linkages accepted for Q haplogroup but R haplogroups are commented as indoeuropean, because some of R1a, R1b have been assimilated to indoeuropean languages during history. As far as I understand from history, I have some comments which are combined to historic, genetic, linguistic, archeologic studies about saka/scythian and hunnic people of northeast asia, east and west euroasia, central, south, southwest and west asia, east and west europe.
In my opinion, R1, R1a, R1b, R2 descendants of P haplogroup have mixed with J2 grecoroman and persian, G south caucasian arian, georgian, H south indian, I1 germanic, nordic visigoth, I2 slavic, balkanic, central european, ukrainian ostrogoth, L vedic sanskrit west indian people and assimilated to indoeuropean languages.
R and R1* ancestors of R1a and R1b people were living in east euroasia as hunnic, turkic tribes. Firstly some R1a have started to migrate into central asia and mutated to R1a in ice age. (after 25k BC) They were mostly elder Saka people and called as foreign people by old persian king I. Darius (persian of persians, arian of arians) even in late ages.
After they have been defeated by persians, they started to become iranic partly (originally hunnic, turkic). Also, some of saka, hunnic, turkic people have migrated to north india as R1a haplogroup but as assimilated to iranic languages. Also, some group have passed over caucasia and became north caucasians as ancestors of Yamnaya, Andronovo, Afanasievo cultures.
Those Yamnaya cultures also spread to east and north europe and balkans as tatars. In 6.5k BC, they also produced tatarlaka tablets in elder agglutinative language. They have even reached until scandinavia and mixed with I1 germanic, nordic visigoths; reached until balkans and mixed with I2 slavic, central european, ukrainian ostrogoths time by time.
Also another mutation inside R1a have occurred in central asia (Turkmenstan) as R1b in early 20-25k BC. Those R1b saka people separately passed to mesopotamia as Sumer (Sakir) and mixed with J1 aramic, akkadians, J2 babylonians, persians, G georgians, caucasian arians. They have protected their elder agglutinative language and spread to anatolia, caucasia.
They also spread to balkans, central europe and north italy as Tur, Sak people who were united back in Etruscan people. Etruscan people had a agglutinative language and was calling themselves as Rasenna similar to Ashina dynasty of Göktürks. They had cities called Kurt'un, Tark(a)n'a and they named Rum'a of grecoroman new capital city of Roman Empire in Italy.
Some groups of R1b Sak people migrated also into central, west, southwest and northwest europe and they named themselves as Saksons, Basq (Eu-sak-ara), Occitan (Eu-scythian), Scottish (Sak-ottish) etc. Southern Saks and Etruscans (eu-Tur-eu-Sak) have lost against grecoroman empire and invented latin language as mixed with J2 grecoroman language.
Also, northern Saks have mixed with I1 germanic, anglic, nordic visigoths and converted to germanic languages. They even reached until norway, iceland as germanic language speakers. But, their origin was agglutinative and vasconic languages as linked to R1b basq (Euskara) people who have remained isolated and still speaking vasconic language.
Because, N, O1, O2, O3, P, Q, R, R1, R1a, R1b, R2 people are genetically relative and most of those people were originally speaking agglutinative languages including uralic, altaic and dene-caucasian languages. So we should call them as our relative Saka/Hunnic people of Indoeurope.
Note, just to inform, Dene-Caucasian languages:
Sinotibetan,
Yeniseian,
NaDene, Atabasqan,
Algic, Almosan,
Burushaski hunza,
Sumerian,
North caucasian,
Tyrsenian, Raetic, Etruscan,
Vasconic, Basq,
also maybe includes tamil dravidian and even other unclassified related languages...

The predecessors of Huihe were Xiongnu. Because, customarily, they ride high-wheeled carts. They were also called Gaoche during the Yuan Wei times, or also called Chile, mistakenly rendered as Tiele.
- Xin Tangshu, 232
Weishu, vol. 103 txt: "高車，[...] 其語略與匈奴同而時有小異，或云其先匈奴之甥也", tr: "The Gaoju, [...] their language and the Xiongnu's are similar though differ a little; or to say it differently, they are the sororal nephews/sons-in-laws of the Xiongnu”
According to the Book of Wei, the Yuebans' language and customs were the same as the Gaoche, who were Turkic speakers. Yuebans(Weak Xiongnu) cut their hair and trimmed their ghee-smeared, sun-dried, glossy eyebrows evenly, and washed before meals three times everyday.
Weishu, Vol. 102 "其風俗言語與高車同，而其人清潔於胡。俗剪髮齊眉，以醍醐塗之，昱昱然光澤，日三澡漱，然後飲食。"

Uploaded DNA data to myancestry and found as Hakka descent I have multiple ancestors from Xiongnu and other steppers around the same region including as far as Korea and mongol hordes. Although, the authenticity of the DNA analysis website is questionable still found very interesting to have connections with the ancient steppes.
Not reliable sources. However many nomads joined Han and lives as Han ever since. Because being Han means civilised. So no big deal.
@@aoltechnology1586 It's a pretty cool thing though because Hakka people are mostly in southern part of China and there were some small researches questioning whether Hakka were mixed with xiongnu ethnic groups or not.
Hakka is basically "guest people's" and took many centuries or even millennia to be accepted by Southern Chinese and incorporated into greater han Chinese identity as we know today. Hakka peoples are everywhere in the world basically, more than other han subgroups, even Cantonese. You can find han Chinese in basically every major city in the world, and it is not surprising if some han Chinese have some hakka ancestry since apart from hakka people and Cantonese people, Hui, etc, how many other han subgroup can be named by even han Chinese and have such a widespread community and also still speaks their dialect fluently etc.
While hakka people's today is known as southern Chinese, originally, who knows where they are from. They could be from the north originally, and most likely are. Or at least that's what is currently accepted as hakka history.
"The word Hakka or "guest families" is Cantonese in origin and originally refers to the Northern Chinese migrants fleeing social unrest, upheaval and invasions in northern parts of China (such as Gansu and Henan) during the Qing dynasty who then sought sanctuary in the Cantonese provinces such as Guangdong and Guangxi, thus the original meaning of the word implies that they are guests living in the Cantonese provinces."
This is what Wikipedia says, and like i said hakka means guest people and that is what Cantonese called us when we first migrated to the south(from the north obviously) to get away from war and strife etc. That has never stopped, which is why there are heaps of hakka everywhere including Taiwan, hk, even overseas.
So yeah. If hakka has some xiongnu or other ancestry, it is not surprising at all considering that even white people in USA have mongol or African ancestries, let alone some hakka people with other han Chinese subgroup(like xiongnu or mongol or Manchu etc). When you have been around for thousands of years and have migrated everywhere in China and the world, it is not surprising at all. Same as Mongolia expanding everywhere and ghengis etc having thousands of offspring and marrying their daughters into han imperial lineage and other countries imperial lineages etc. That was the whole plan to begin with for ghengis lol. And it worked out quite well for him and Mongols, or at least for a period of time. But in the end they underestimated the power of Chinese civilization and their Chinese dynasty didn't even last a century, and after that they got assimilated into Chinese civilization and more Mongolians live in china today as han Chinese than in Mongolia itself. Mongolia wouldn't even exist if it wasn't for both China and Russia wanting a neutral buffer state between them.
If you dont look like EAST ASIAN, you probably have nothing to do with Mongol or XiongNu

Hu(胡) means barbarians, therefore Dong-Hu (東胡) means "Eastern Barbarians"
Dong-Hu (東胡,Eastern babarians) is the predecessor of 鮮卑(Xian-be), 柔然(Rou-Ran), 蒙古(Meng-Gu, Mongols), 契丹(Qi-Dan, Khitans), 女真(Nu-Zhen, Jurchen) and 滿洲(Man-Zhou, Manchurians). Apparently they are either Mongolic or Tungustic language speaking tribes but not Turkic.
In contrast, 突厥(Tu-Jue, Turks), 回紇(Hui-He, Uyghurs), 黠郟斯(Xia-Jia-Su, Kyrgyzs) are Turkic language Speaking tribes. According to the Chinese sources, They are from Jin- Shan (金山, golden mountains, Altai mountains) which is west of Mongolian plateau! They are not part of Dong-Hu(Eastern babarians) and originated from different locations. Therefore Turkic people are not related to the Mongolic and Tugustic language speaking people.
You are absolutely right. The Turks don’t even know their history in depth, they often confused the two divides. Mongolic or Tungustic are from the Far East whereas Turkic are from the Altai Mountains they are quite distinct. Chinese distinguishes them by referring to them as Eastern Barbarians and Western Barbarians.
Dingling was ancestor of Siberian Turkic ?
@@middleeastrenwarriormen1017 maybe, 丁零（Ding-Ling） is a Turkic tribe north of Xiong-Nu mentioned in the Chinese sources during the Han dynasty in the 1st and 2nd century AD. They attacked Xiong-Nu frequently from Lake Baikal and later migrated to Sarmakand in Central Asia after the disintegration of Xiong--Nu Chanyuate in the 3rd century AD. Those who remained in their homeland Lake Baikal were probably the ancestors of later Uyghurs which was north of Gokturks in the 7th century AD.

Where the fuk are these "huns" and "Turkic"? Stop making fake video that glorify a weak group of goat herders.
I think its maybe not Batur, but Bator, since Mongolian capital is Ulan Bator, and Bator in Hungarian means Brave, altought Ur means lord or guardian, and Hadur means warlord.
As this time depth coincides with the beginning of the Xiongnu empire (209 BCE-100 CE), the association of Xiongnu with Proto-Bulgharic does not seem unreasonable. However, given the relatively large credible interval involved in the Bayesian dating, the breakup of proto-Turkic may also be connected with the first disintegration of the Xiongnu confederation under influence of the military successes of the Chinese in 127-119 BCE (Mudrak 2009). In sum, the time depth of the breakup of Proto-Turkic can be estimated between 500 BCE and 100 CE.

The one in the middle is not true. Xiongnu emerged not in the middle from nowhere (supposedly from Turkic? - The Turkic people were first mentioned only and suddenly in 6th century), the Xiongnu emerged exactly from the meeting of that East (Donghu) and that West (Indo-Iranians) on the Mongolian steppes. But this channel is dedicated to Turkic theory, so it makes a way for the Turkic theory into the antient arena of the Mongolian steppes.
impressive
This can be surmised by analysing the names of Hunnic princes and tribes. The names of the following Hunnic princes are clearly Oghuric Turkic in origin: Mundzuk (Attila’s father, from Turkic Muncˇuq = pearl/jewel; for an in-depth discussion of the Hunnic origin of this name in particular see Schramm (1969), 139-40), Oktar/Uptar (Attila’s uncle, Öktär = brave/powerful), Oebarsius (another of Attila’s paternal uncles, Aïbârs = leopard of the moon), Karaton (Hunnic supreme king before Ruga, Qarâton = black-cloak), Basik (Hunnic noble of royal blood, early fifth century, Bârsig˘ = governor), Kursik (Hunnic noble of royal blood, from either Kürsig˘ , meaning brave or noble, or Quršiq meaning beltbearer). For these etymologies see Bona (1991), 33. Three of Attila’s known sons 40 have probable Turkic names: Ellac, Dengizich, Hernak, and Attila’s princi pal wife, the mother of the ‘crown prince’ Ellac, has the Turkic name Here kan, as does another notable wife named Eskam. See Maenchen-Helfen (1973), 392-415. See also Bona (1991), 33-5, and Pritsak (1956), 414. Most known Hunnic tribal names are also Turkic, Maenchen-Helfen (1973), 427-41, e.g. Ultincur, Akatir etc. The cur suffix in many of these names is a well-known Turkic title and as Beckwith (1987), 209, points out the To-lu or Tardus tribes (Hunnic in origin) of the Western Turkish On Oq were each headed by a Cur (noble). Zieme (2006), 115, speculates that the title cur belongs to a pre-Turkic Tocharian stratum of the Turkic language, which, if true, again highlights the essential heterogeneity of Central Asian peoples and even languages. See also Aalto (1971), 35. In addition to this primary language (Oghuric Turkic), Priscus informs us that Latin and Gothic were also understood by the Hunnic elite. See Priscus, fr. 13.3, Blockley (1983), 289.

While the text of Genghis' message is clear and talks about the history of the eastern steppes only, since the era of the Xiongnu, the eastern steppes have not known an empire so large in terms of area as the empire of Genghisid.

1 There are 56 ethnic groups in China. Similarly, there are many nomadic peoples living on the vast Mongolian plateau. It is ridiculous to think that all 56 ethnic groups in China are Han, or that all nomads (tribes) in the grasslands of northern China are Huns and Turks. 2 As the only historical recorder of the northern nomads, China has detailed records for each nomad. Because all the nomads engaged in massive wars with the Han. Each nomad has a large number of captives to interrogate. So the accuracy of history books is very high. A total of 5,340 wars and civil wars occurred between the Han nationality and various ethnic groups. 3. The real Turks are the yellow race. According to the historical records of the Han nationality, the Turkic Khan refused to give a high official to the tribal leader because he looked like a Huren (caucasian). 4. Finding one's own ancestors requires a foundation. And use genetics effectively. Genetic tests show that 90% are Eastern Roman Greeks and Armenians who were conquered by the Pseudo-Turks. 5 English-speaking Filipinos, Indians and East Africans are not British. Likewise, speaking Turkic (the lingua franca of the steppe) is not Turkic. None of the 56 ethnic groups that speak Chinese is Han. 6 The Turks and Huns were among a dozen powerful nomadic peoples who disappeared on the bloody Mongolian steppes, and they were all losers in the northern steppes. In the Mongolian grasslands in the north, only Mongolian and Xianbei (fishing and hunting peoples) survive. 7 The Tocharians in Xinjiang are Persians from the Iranian plateau. They speak Old Persian and come from the Indus Valley. After 840 AD, the Uighurs entered Tarim, and the Tocharian language gradually disappeared. 8 Chinese history books have continuously recorded the history of nomads in the northern grasslands for 3,000 years, reflecting the actual situation at that time. is the only reference definition. It cannot be intentionally curved or artistic. 9 The conquest of the Eastern Romans in Anatolia by the Pseudo-Turks (Turkic-speaking tribes) was of exactly the same nature as the conquest of China by the Manchurians in 1644. A small number of nomads took over the populated areas. It is as absurd for the Anatolians to say that they are Turks from northern China, just as the Han people say that they are from the northern grasslands.

The European Huns, who originated from the Xiongnu Empire, are known to have spoken primarily a Turkic language, more specifically Oghuric Turkic. 12 However, this may be due to the heavy concentration of Turkic peoples in the areas that the Huns inhabited immediately before their major expansions into Europe and Central Asia. Chinese historical source, the Weilue (= Sanguozhi 30.863-4), confirms that the Dingling (an ancient Turkic people) were the main inhabitants of what is now the Kazakh steppes by the 3rd century ce.
Kim, H. The Xiongnu. Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Asian History.
The various Oghurs (Utigurs and Kutrigurs) and the Bulgars, who are mentioned in our sources after the so-called 'total disappearance' of the Huns, as noted earlier, are likely to have been either the same people or at least members of the same, related political entity.
Kim, H. (2013). The later Huns and the birth of Europe. In The Huns, Rome and the Birth of Europe (pp. 137-155). Cambridge: Cambridge University Press.
Perhaps some commentator will emerge and write a new funny conclusion about the origin of the Huns from the European continent based on the term "European Huns".
We note that some commentators do not understand the terminology put by historians about the Hun groups for the purpose of classification, based on political geography, such as "European Huns" and "Iranian Huns".
This is similar to the falsification of some ignorant commentators of some historical terms, such as the classification of the term "Turko-Persian civilization" by some historians. The word Persian is cultural, not ethnic, in order to use the Persian language and not be based on the Persian element.
Like the term "Christian Latin civilization" to describe the Germanic kingdoms in Europe during the Middle Ages, the Latin meaning is cultural about the use of the Latin language and not that the Romans did it.

Clearly documented in history book, the birth of Xionghu (Hannu) tribe were few hundred years before existen of Turkic Tribe on the same geographic location, then later of the Mongolian Tribes. (All started in Inner Mongolian area in current China)
How come the language of the later tribe, "Turkic", becomes the language influence of pre-dated tribe, namely Xiongnu ????
I know some Modern Turkey wish to glorify their link to ancient Turkic Tribe and claim the Cauasian-Persian Turkey people were dominating the Euroasian continent in history. In fact, they are not the exactly same group of people.
Xiongnu > Turkic > Mongolians
They are all Siberian Mongoloids, not Cauasian/Persian/Turkey phenotypes. They were always strong in war and conguering, but weak in Culture and Language.
Peoples existed before the final formation of national names for any particular people.
And the names of peoples take different names with different stages of time due to political, geographical, religious, tribal and other factors.
For example, the name China, according to the opinion of popular scholars, was formed with the period of the Qin dynasty, which is considered the first dynasty to unite the historical lands of China located between the Yellow River and the Yangtze River.
For example, the name of the Amazigh people took different names in ancient and medieval history, as their names in ancient history were the Libyans, the Numidians, and others.
In the Middle Ages, the popular name was the Berber people, and in modern times they agreed on the name Amazigh, depending on the name of the language used.
And the other most important thing is that it is the Chinese records that confirm the existence of a definitive and continuous relationship between the Xiongnu and the Turks in terms of factors of descent, language, culture, and others.
The Turks have a scientifically confirmed relationship with the Xiongnu and the Huns.
And Chinese records confirm the existence of a definitive relationship and that the Turks are the same Xiongnu.
When historical records mention Tiele people:
"Their language, in brief, and Xiongnu language are the same .....".
Chinese records say the Ashina tribe and Gokturk are descended from Xiongnu.
The Chinese records also said about the Uyghur:
"The predecessors of Huihe were Xiongnu ...They were also called Gaoche during the Yuan Wei times...".
The Uyghurs also confirm in their own historical records that they are directly descended from the Xiongnu.
For example: Chinese records say about the Yuwen tribe, which later became part of the Xianbei Confederation.
"Yuwen Mohuai of the Xiongnu was from Liaodong, the region beyond the northern border. His ancestor was a remote relative of the southern Shanyu. (The Yuwen) had been the chief of the eastern section (of the Xianbei) for many generations. The (Yuwen)'s language differed widely from the Xianbei's."
Chinese historical records always confirm that the Xiongnu are different from Xianbei.
For example, historical records mention that the Ashina tribe was associated with the Kingdom of Northern Liang, and this kingdom descended from Xiongnu.
In fact, I cannot list all the historical evidence and it is enough to write several historical volumes.
European Huns seem to be such an oxymoron. Just like the term "Asian American" lol
The Xiongnu were very good at escaping and hiding in the steppes, the Chinese spend 90% of war time and huge resource, to just searching for their location, once found out Xiongnu army, they escaped again
An earlier date for the separation of proto-Turkic, preceding 209 BC would support the identification of Xiongnu language with proto-Bulgharic or one of its subgroups, while a later date of separation would make its association with proto-Turkic more plausible.

What legacy could there be left off?Xiongnu's majority haplogroup R became extinct,Chanyu's Y haplogroup is R-Y174827,,Only descendants are a hakka family,probably kept hostage 2000 years ago
The Xiongnu established the political culture that is typical for future steppe empires or confederations, from the Xianbei and Rouran to the Göktürks and Uygurs. Blood has nothing on cultural achievements.

In history xiongnu was wipe out from west China under han military expeditionary. That’s the last of xiongnu in Chinese history… next is the mongol that replaced xiongnu
I really want to know if there is any relation between The lineage of "Xiong" rulers of the State of Chu (During Zhou Dynasty) and the Xiongnu
Xiong means bear, Xiongnu is nomads name.
The Chinese word "Xiong（匈）" in Xiongnu has the same source as the Chinese word "fierce（凶）", which may be the ancient Chinese's contemptuous name for foreign barbarians, the king of Chu State is surnamed Xiong, which means bear, only sound similar
The origin of Turks in the Chinese Chronicle 《Bei Shi 》( 北史, history of the Northern dynasties, from 386AD~618AD,compiled in 659 AD) records as :
突厥者，其先居西海之右，獨為部落，蓋匈奴之別種也。姓阿史那氏。後為鄰國所破，盡滅其族。有一兒，年且十歲，兵人見其小，不忍殺之，乃刖足斷其臂，棄草澤中。有牝狼以肉餌之，及長，與狼交合，遂有孕焉。彼王聞此兒尚在，重遣殺之。使者見在狼側，並欲殺狼。於時若有神物，投狼於西海之東，落高昌國西北山。山有洞穴，穴內有平壤茂草，周迥數百里，四面俱山。狼匿其中，遂生十男。十男長，外托妻孕，其後各為一姓，阿史那即其一也，最賢，遂為君長
The origin of Turks was a 10-year-old boy from a tribe which is a descendant tribe of Xiong-Nu ( Huns ) living on the right-hand side ( west?) of Xi-Hai ( West Sea, probably Lake Issyak in nowadays Kyrgyzstan ) who survived the massacre from the enemy tribe. The boy's four limbs were chopped off and he was thrown into bushes because the soldiers could not bear to kill such a young boy. The boy was raised by a she-wolf and impregnated the she-wolf as he became a man. The enemy tribe leader learned the news and resent troops to kill the boy( a grownup man then ). As the enemy troops approached, a "divine wind" suddenly blew the pregnant she-wolf to the east side of Xi-Hai as the soldiers tried to kill "her". The shewolf then gave birth to ten boys. Each of them grew up and established his own Turkish clan and Ashina ( 阿史那 ) was one of them. The Ashina clan was the strongest of the ten clans therefore the chief of the Ashina clan was the leader of Turks.
Tujue ?

A wonderful presentation of the history of the Xiongnu Empire and its various stages.
The great Xiongnu Empire is the first known empire in the Eastern Steppe.
The Xiongnu Empire's greatest expansion reached Central Asia, where it controlled Gansu, the Tarim Basin, the eastern steppes, Siberia, the Tian Shan, Lake Balkhash, Lake Issyk, and even Lake Khiva.
It can be said that the Xiongnu Empire was founded on the combination of the ancient cultures of the eastern steppes such as Slab-grave, Ordos, Pazyryk, etc., with the city-kingdoms of the south of the eastern steppes, and managed to achieve a radical transformation.
The Xiongnu Empire was able to continue as a dominant force for about a hundred years, and to establish a state of stability and prosperity in the lands of the eastern steppes, where it was able to conclude a commercial peace agreement with the Han Empire that lasted for several decades and controlled the regional trade lines and was able to attract wise men and artisans to the heart of the eastern steppes and so on.
Archaeologists have been able to discover traces of Xiongnu cities in the Orkhon Valley, Selenga River, Yenisei River, and others, with the discovery of a development in the metallurgical industry and the practice of agriculture, among others.
The Xiongnu Empire made the steppe basic infrastructure in the forms of political system, military system, cultural, social, economic and other patterns.
After the Chinese Han Empire violated the peace agreement on its part, the conflict flared up more widely with the Xiongnu Empire since 133 BC. This conflict ended with the victory of the Han and the disintegration of the Xiongnu into southern, northern and western parts.
The Northern Xiongnu managed to hold out for a longer period, until AD 89.
The southern Xiongnu turned into a tributary kingdom of the autonomous Han Empire in the south of the eastern steppe and they had some cities. Archaeologists have discovered the southern Xiongnu cities and concluded that they preserved their culture and traditions.
The Western Xiongnu tried to revive the empire in Central Asia with Zhizhi Chanyu, who established a new capital near the current city of Taraz. His attempt was short-lived and ended in 36 BC.
The influence of the Xiongnu in the eastern steppes and eastern Asia continued into the fifth century AD.
And during the Sixteen Kingdoms era, as one of the "Five Barbarians", they founded several dynastic states in northern China, such as the Former Zhao and Hu Xia and other dynasties of Xiongnu origin.
The Turks have a scientifically confirmed relationship with the Xiongnu and the Huns.
And Chinese records confirm the existence of a definitive relationship and that the Turks are the same Xiongnu.
When historical records mention Tiele people:
"Their language, in brief, and Xiongnu language are the same .....".

Chinese historical records always confirm that the Xiongnu are different from Xianbei, And in terms of linguistic and cultural aspects and so on.
For example, historical records mention that the Ashina tribe was associated with the Kingdom of Northern Liang, and this kingdom descended from Xiongnu.
In fact, I cannot list all the historical evidence and it is enough to write several historical volumes.

Türkler hakkında bilgiler veren çok başarılı bir tarihi anlatım olmuş. Asya Hun devletinin imparatorluktan daha çok bir konfederasyon devleti olduğu doğrudur. Bu coğrafyada yaşayan, toprağına sığmayan dik başlı Türk toplulukları ve bozkır halkları genellikle kendi aralarında çatışma yaşayıp birbirlerine karşı hakimiyet kurma savaşına girişiyorlardı. Bu durum onları düşmanlarına karşı zayıflatıp bir varlık gösterememelerine neden oluyordu. Bu durumu çok iyi bilen Metehan'ın en büyük hayali bütün bozkır halklarını tek bir çatı altında toplamaktı. Bunu başarmak için bir imparator olmak yerine bir komutan olmayı seçti. Güçlü liderlik özellikleri ile bütün bozkır halklarının saygısını kazandı ve onları tek bir çatı altında toplamayı başardı. ''Bozkırda yay çeken kim varsa hepsini bir araya topladım. Şimdi hepsi Hun oldular'' sözlerinin Metehan'a ait olduğu rivayet edilir. Halkına vaad ettiği her şeyi gerçekleştirerek nasıl bir lider ve komutan olduğunu sonuna kadar kanıtladı. Metehan; milletine, kültürüne ve töresine sonuna kadar bağlı, muhteşem bir lider, deha bir asker ve çok iyi bir devlet adamıydı.
😅匈奴唯一一次大型战斗战胜汉帝国，围困了中国皇帝大书特书。 汉帝国无数次征伐匈奴，几次打得匈奴差不多国灭族亡轻描淡写成零星的胜利。 汉朝军队几次直接打到贝加尔湖，吓得匈奴全部迁移到贝加尔湖北岸，几十年不敢回蒙古草原。。把匈奴打得几次分裂，南匈奴直接成了汉朝的附庸，甚至最后南匈奴全部被汉化，跟现在的内蒙古一样。 新疆也是在跟匈奴的竞争中成为了中国的领土，至于维吾尔人，别说匈奴了，跟突厥人都是死敌，是唐朝灭掉突厥，维吾尔人的祖先回鹘人才真正独立起来，而且回鹘人是在唐朝中后期，也就是中国统治新疆800多年后才从蒙古高原迁徙到现在的塔里木盆地的。
中国王朝没有内战的时候一向都是把草原按在地上摩擦，其他时候都是乘着中国内战时候才能欺负下中国，一旦恢复基本都是把他们按着打，如果不是北方不适合农耕没法把人移过去，只能空在那，赶走一个没过多久又来一个，说到底就是一个打了也没利益不打又总来抢东西的邻居，还用长城来抵抗侵略，真够厚脸皮的，那叫古代超级“防盗墙”。

In short, it is hard to think of any other ethnolinguistic entity in history that conquered so vast a territory and founded so many empires and states, also contributing to world civilizations. The history of the Turkic peoples was an important factor in world history for more than a millennium until the emergence of Europe as the world's dominant power. What happened in the Turkic world often affected the history of China, Central Asia, the Middle East, South Asia, and Europe. One may also argue that world history began with the "Turko-Mongol" empire created by Chinggis Khan. In the contem- porary world, Turkic-speaking nations form six states (Kazakhstan, Kyrgyz- stan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Azerbaijan, and Turkey/Türkiye) and several "autonomous" units in Russia (the republics of Chuvash, Tatarstan, Bashkor- tostan, Altai, Khakassia, Tuva, and Sakha) and China (the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region). Turkic peoples also reside as minority groups in several other countries, including Mongolia and Iran, among others. It would there- fore be difficult to acquire a comprehensive understanding of world history as well as our present world without studying the history of the Turkic peoples.
at the time of Genghis Khan there are only mongols ruling similarly traditioned turkic and khitan nomads. only until the time of his grandchildren, excluding Kublai Khan who conquered china, other mongol khans started to convert to Islam and use turkic tribal leaders as ministers at their hordes the other khanates were 'mongol-Turkic', as time goes by, those mongol-turkic khans become totally Turkic

When Temüjin was a boy, the center of the steppe world was the Orkhon Valley, the old imperial site of the Türks. The valley was dominated by the Kereit. To the west, on the upper Irtysh River, lay Naiman territory. The Kereit and Naiman, not the Mongols, were masters of the steppe. The Kereit and Naiman elites spoke Turkic and had partially converted to Christianity under the influence of the Nestorian Church. In an effort to out do each other, To'oril of the Kereit and Tayang Qan of the Naiman accumulated men, weapons, alliances, and prestige. Yesügei Ba'atur sided with the Kereit. Later Chinggis Khan would subdue the Kereit and the Naiman in the course of a protracted effort to defeat all challengers among the steppe peoples.
The Horde How the Mongols Changed the World
Marie Favereau, p.32-33
In reality , Mongol is not an appropriate name because while the leaders of this movement were Mongol most of their army were Turkish tribesmen . The Turkish influence in the Mongol army had been extremely extensive , the two branches of the Mongol empire - Khanat Joji ( the Golden Horde ) and Khanat Jeghtai - who ruled the region had by the fourteenth century totally adopted Turkish culture. Central Asia, which was the base of Jeghtai government, in reality was the centre of Turkish culture . However , even beyond the Ural mountains , the Turkish culture enjoyed a strong presence .14
Ehteshami, A., 1994. From the Gulf to Central Asia. Exeter: University of Exeter Press, p.78.
Although the Turks often comprised the bulk of the Mongol army as well as the bulk of armies opposed to the Mongols, throughout the domains of the Mongol Empire there was a diffusion of military technology, which has already bee and also ethnic groups. In addition to the Mongols and Turks, other ethnicities served in the Mongol military machine and found themselves distant from home.

@@berserk9085 A similar view was held by the 11th century Arab historian Sa'ed Al-Andalusi.

In another part of the book he says that the Chinese used to refer to the king of the Turks as "The king of the lions".

The noblest of these nations that were not interested in science are the Chinese and the Turks. The Chinese are the largest of the peoples by number, the most imposing by kingdom, and the most considerable by territory. The domains they occupy are in the eastern parts of the inhabited world, between the equinoctial line to the extreme of the seven climates to the north. His share in knowledge (ma'rifa) is to surpass all nations in mastery of handicrafts and perfection of graphic arts. They are the most suffered of men in the prolonged effort, which the improvement of the works [supposes], as well as in enduring the harshness of the penalties in the perfection of the arts (sana'i").
As for the Turks, [they] also form a great nation with numerous troops and an imposing kingdom. The domains they inhabit are found between the eastern regions of Juräsän, [on the side] of the Islamic empire, the western regions of China, northern India, and the extreme north of the inhabited world. Their virtue is that they stand out and achieve supremacy in doing war, as well as in the elaboration of weapons; for they are the most skilful of men in horsemanship and [warfare] tactics, and the keenest of eyes for spearing, striking with the sword, and shooting arrows.

The video is well done! Respect the author's efforts. At the same time I also understand that modern Turks have to look for a great ancestor. But the following issues need to be considered. 1 There are 56 ethnic groups in China. Similarly, there are many nomadic peoples living on the vast Mongolian plateau. It is ridiculous to think that all 56 ethnic groups in China are Han, or that all nomads (tribes) in the grasslands of northern China are Huns and Turks. 2 As the only historical recorder of the northern nomads, China has detailed records for each nomad. Because all the nomads engaged in massive wars with the Han. Each nomad has a large number of captives to interrogate. So the accuracy of history books is very high. A total of 5,340 wars and civil wars occurred between the Han nationality and various ethnic groups. 3. The real Turks are the yellow race. According to the historical records of the Han nationality, the Turkic Khan refused to give a high official to the tribal leader because he looked like a Huren (caucasian). 4. Finding one's own ancestors requires a foundation. And use genetics effectively. Genetic tests show that 90% are Eastern Roman Greeks and Armenians who were conquered by the Pseudo-Turks. 5 English-speaking Filipinos, Indians and East Africans are not British. Likewise, speaking Turkic (the lingua franca of the steppe) is not Turkic. The 56 ethnic groups who speak Chinese are not Han. 6 The Turks and Huns were among a dozen powerful nomadic peoples who disappeared on the bloody Mongolian steppes, and they were all losers in the northern steppes. The victors in the northern Mongolian grasslands were the Mongols and the Xianbei (fishing and hunting peoples). 7 The Tocharians in Xinjiang are Persians from the Iranian plateau. They speak Old Persian and come from the Indus Valley. After 840 AD, the Uighurs entered Tarim, and the Tocharian language gradually disappeared. 8 Chinese history books have continuously recorded the history of nomads in the northern grasslands for 3,000 years, reflecting the actual situation at that time. is the only reference definition. It cannot be deliberately bent or artistic. 9 The conquest of the Eastern Romans in Anatolia by the Pseudo-Turks (Turkic-speaking tribes) was exactly the same in nature as the conquest of China by the Manchurians in 1644. A small number of nomads took over the populated areas. Anatolians (modern-day Turkey) say they are Turks from northern China, just as absurd as Han people say they come from the northern grasslands.

Generally I didn't see any foreigner channels that Turkic history explained very deeply thanks for good representive and videos.
ancient Chinese as in Tang dynasty or before pronouns xiongnu was not xiongnu. It was pronounced as Hung- nu. Nu means slaves or description an ethnic not Han Chinese, such as calling Japanese wal-nu as their ethnic name is wa. I think the idea of Turkic tribes is a bit over exaggerated by this channel. This is probably the other way around. Turkic tribes may associate origin in Mongolia, with ancient Mongolic n Tungusic tribes. The nomadic population diversified through different direction to form different ethnic sub groups later. Seems to be the westward branch formed Altaic n assimilated with natives along their way to todays Central Asia, n which was the ethnic Turkic gradually formed this migration.
The fact is Mongolian is not Turkic but they share the origins with Turkic, same as Tungusic.
I don't think that the Mongols have ever been equated with the Turks or vice versa. We constantly stressed the differences and similarities between both peoples. However, we do focus on Turkic history because it has been neglected very much in history books worldwide, only focusing on the Ottomans and occasionally noticing the Seljuks and Göktürks.
