The Most Savage Humans The World Has Ever Seen

[paulney]

Mongols rules for a while... until they got their asses handed to them by Dmitri Donskoy.

I'm not 100% convince of the accuracy in your claim, but the Mongols aren't that tough ( they were defeated 3 times by the Vietnamese).

Mongol invasions of Vietnam or Mongol-Vietnamese War

They also got owned by the Japanese (with the convenient help of typhoons, hence 'divine wind').

I think 1 on 1, they were not so capable compared to elites like Spartans (we'll never know obviously). More than anything, they were utter psychopaths and genius with quick swarm techniques. It would seem that they invented the concept of blitzkrieg.

from what I learned previously on the Genghis khan, he was the closest( in terms of land) to ruling the entire world, before he died.

he pretty much knew how to take land lol

It is true that they are great with the blitz technique and were extremely adaptive of other techniques that they acquires from their enemies, however great strategist with much smaller force can still defeat the Mongol with guerrilla technique.

Can you hear yourself talking? Tough doesn't mean invincible, take this example; The Samoans are tough islanders, they are all 270-lb fat pit-fighters but believe me just one canadian army battalion of geeky nerds with modern weapons would take over the island in about 48 hours, but this doesn't make the Samoans any less tough.

-The mongols had no food supply problems, if any of their horses or burden of beast died in long journeys they would slice it up and put the meat (either good or rotten) under their saddle to keep it warm against the horse's back and eat from it for months on end for thousands of kilometers.

This one is not true, or is only partially. They would do this to tenderize the meat, then they would eat it raw. This is how/where steak tartare was invented.

The Mongols didn't have the man power to rule all the conquered land.

Five stars reviews across the board. Sounds good to me.

Where do you read it had 5-star reviews? The book was published in 1959, I have never read a BETTER history book than this one.

Chuck Norris > Mongols

 

[dud]

is that a picture of john wayne?

John Wayne supposedly died of cancer that he "supposedly" picked up by making the movie "The Conqueror" about ... you know who. They filmed the movie in the area of the atomic blasts and they also brought sand/soil from the area into Hollywood to continue filming on the set.

 

[dud]

What about the Spartans?

 

[MarkXIX]

They shat where they ate and that is respectable? That's like first rule of business and relationships isn't it?

 

[MustangSVT]

did you know mongols didn't have a written language? thus nothing was kept in writing.
Everybody knows this.
And what's with those pictures? is this a joke thread?

Markxix, what is that in your avatar? is that a disguised

The ones that wrote about these mongol customs were muslim and christian populations that came to be under their subjugation

Can you imagine the smell. It must have been so horrid and rank.

Worse so can you imagine the smell of the lady that just got a train ran on her by 50 of these guys. puke.

This group was only a step or two away from swine. wallowing in filth and shit. Eating anything. I would like dna evidence they were human.

It is safe to say that humanity lived like that for the majority of history. Grow up. Most of our ancestors were peasants who lived in mud. Deal.

That part of history is over, or should be. :|

Oh sure, I just don't think we should be too harsh on past humans sanitation. It was a long hard road to get where we are these days.

 

[Fritzo]

Pffttt....Chuck Norris did all those things too.

 

[Doggiedog]

The Mongols didn't have the man power to rule all the conquered land.

Mongols actually didn't conquer more because they need huge pastures or meadows to feed their horses. They had to limit themselves to those areas. They would set out scouts to look for areas where they could graze their animals before attacking a location.

As for ruling a conquered land, they would give the population an ultimatum. Either surrender or die. If they surrendered, the Mongols would kill all of the aristocracy and rich thereby eliminating any kind of resistance. No one would mind either because everyone hates the privileged.
