Although I am a Greek, I always admired the Mongols and Genghis Khan more than Alexander the Great. Genghis Khan was the greatest Conqueror in human history. Also this Documentary is very, very interesting.

....Jack is so hot on the enemies trail ...... they are in a chaotic frenzy.... he is able to seperate friend from foe...

I SAW A GENGHIS KHAN PIZZA SHOP AND A GENGHIS KHAN TACO BELL IN THIS VIDEO. MONGOLIA MUST BE VERY MODERN TODAY.

True. Chingghis Khan had it tougher to become a ruler but doesn't change the fact that Alexander is a better battlefield commander. He was undefeated and had the unique ability to quickly assess the situation and make adjustments on the fly. Chingghis Khan was great but alexander was a greater military leader.

It is worth saying here that the name "Mongol" until the 17th-18th centuries meant belonging to a political community, and was not the ethnic name. Chenghis Khan was a Turk. Tatars of Chenghis Khan wereTurks, whose descendants now live in many of the fraternal Turkic nations - Kazakhs, Bashkirs, Tatars and many others. About a lot on the true Turkic history had been written in the book "Forgotten Heritage of Tatars" (by Galy Yenikeyev). This e-book you can easily find on Smashwords company site.

Genious warfare tactics...

Genghis Khan took all the credit from his generals, especially Subatai khan the greatest general ever

A rebuttal of the chinese- persian myths about "incredible cruelty of nomadic mongol-tatar conquerors", and about "a war between the Tatars and Genghis Khan", as well as a lot of from the real Tatar (Turkic) History, what the official historians hidden from the public, you can learn in the book "Forgotten Heritage of Tatars" (by independent Tatar historian Galy Yenikeyev). On the site of Smashwords is an electronic version of this book in English - it’s easy to find on the Internet.

rate genghis khan, alexander inherited army from his father, and genghis khan earned the army with hardwork and blood, he went through every part of life and it was done by himself with no help from anyone and stronger psycologicaly

Genghis had extra 40 years to achieve what he did vs Alexander. Alexander was on his way to conquer arabs when he died. Who knows how the world history would shape if he would live till his 70's.

baddest dude that ever walked the earth

Temujin was the name of some chieftain his father had killed. As a toast to that warrior. He named his son after his fallen foe. In revenge, the descendant of that fallen foe had Temujin's father killed. Its quite a pleasant story....HAHA. Temujin then revenged that clan who had killed his father. And that revenge expanded across Asia and Europe.

Healer od There is some suspicion as to Alexander's campaign in India and his battle with Porus ...Alexander also had his ass handed to him

...once you know the objective of the enemy we are encountering we could counter... but exposing the enemy will only cause hysteria... so how do we go about it..

@enpale thanks for correcting me for the fourth time.

@victinhoemn He also says 'ger' instead of 'yurt.' Watch and learn.

@victinhoemn It's spelled Chinngis Khan, not jenhis

Temujin with red hair and blue eyes? Possibly. Does the book actually specify the cover illustration as an actual life time portrait? Are today's 'Mongolians' of the Mongolian plateau more likely then descendants of Chinese and/or Tungusic people who would centuries later migrate into the region? I have heard of ethnic Kazakh tribes who claim to be of purer Chagatai Mongol ancestry than the so called ethnic 'Mongolians' who speak the Mongolian languages today. And what of the 'Tatars?'

@victinhoemn Actually, Mongolians call his name "Chinggis Khan"

3:31 So here we are on a greenscreen....

Not Mongol ppl but central Asian horses built the empire. These were the best horses in the world. Even though man to man Mongols were outnumbered, Mongol cavalry used to outnumber the enemy cavalry and their horses were faster and tough.

Unfortunately, in the official history there are many pro-Chinese falsifications about the "wild nomads" and about "a war between the Tatars and Genghis Khan” etc. Read a book "Forgotten Heritage of Tatars" (by Galy Yenikeyev) about the hidden real history of Tatars and their fraternal Turkic peoples. This e-book you can easily find on Smashwords company website. On the cover of this book you can see the true appearance of Genghis Khan. It is his lifetime portrait, which is very little known.

@tsogo1717 Actually it is Chinggis Haan...not Khan

If Genghis sees you guys walking on his face he'll be very upset

if the great Alexander tried to invade us dey would have died of cold weather during mongolian winter even though he win in battles against mongols

what do u mean ?

during 12th century mongolian population was so low about 200,000 people were living in mongolia and since the invasion begun dey went to everywhere to invade em but most of em went to china coz china was fucking rich and big country at the time. about 100,000 to china about 20,000 to russia about 15,000 to arabia ,egypt, some of em to eastern europe and powning poles and hungrian and german united armies mongols always been outnumbered by their enemies still defeating em

Mongols are the Ancestors of Slavs.

just to compare both conwuerers , alexander invaded persia as it was always his dream to conquering persia but for genghiz it was all about ravange, vengance of his traders which had been executed in persia for conspiracy theory, back in the time when alexander conquered persia , persian didnt give damn about him but when genghiz conquered persia everyone feared him and respected him

.....its Mark

...mmm you still think its me...

@enpale Lols i should have watched the video first he actually explains it better than me Timur actually means iron

timur is not corret, correct is Tumur this mean iron.. you don't know about that

My friend useless this shouting. At this age around the Mongol tribes lived Turkic tribes from south Uyghurs, from north Yakuts, from East Asian Kuns Manchu, Tatar, Korean etc tribes, from West Kyrgyz, Kazakh, Kipchak, Altai etc. Also his strongest horde the Golden Horde another name is Kipchak Horde, while Kipchak is a Turkic tribe. So the Empire of Genghis Khan originally a Turk-Mongolian empire. Turkic & Mongolian culture also close to same, so Turks and Mongols should to be brothers.

... question I ask ... is the United States in our current state under seige...

As badass as the mongols were they had their asses handed to them everytime by the Delhi Sultanate.

Alexander the great's story is so old that it may be fake.

the Europeans were not a significant threat at this time in history, Genghis Khan just wanted to see how far west he could go. if the second khan didnt die the mongols would have conquered until they reached the atlantic ocean. Then the empire would have gone from the pacific to the atlantic

....Kennedy?

History Lite More flavor and less filling.

Everyone thinks their past is the strongest and mighty and that their personal lineage is that of a great king or emporer but everyone truly just lives vichariousely. And everyone's people have been a pack bottom feeders before.

..Mark Levin

... no its not Jack Condor

Jayce1712 is wise

Actually "Chinggis Khaan". =)

its Chinghiz han not genhis

"Stick with Chinggis Khan", ok sure - Names documentary "Lost Empire of Genghis Khan" lol...

some mongols were muslims some were shamanists and Christian too at that time.

@MrLantean hahaha: Hey dude , Julius Caeser was a black man. he was a cameronean

and during that time chinese population was about 20 million,mongols did it dey invaded china. .Same thing had happened to Arabic world too.it means if the whole army attacked to india same thing would have happened to india too.I am pretty sure they werent interest at india tnx.

I would rate Alexander the Great higher than Genghis Khan as a military leader.

It is Ok, because Alexander was Macedonian, you don't have to worry! ;)

...the same as Jesus from Nazareth, and half of the mankind believe in it! ;)

if now days Kazakh fight with Mongolia they can destroy 5 second cause i think they do have a lot of bombs and strong army. But Mongols have nothing even dont have money for fix ulan bators street hahaha

yes b4 Genghis was born b4 mongol doenst exist mongolian nomadic tribes were into all religion expect hindu or buddhisim.

Why? Alexander the Great like Chingghis Khan built an Empire. but he won every battle. Chingghis Khan is great but Alexander the Great was a greater genius.

I am not, muslims do taqiyya

Was He White?

See Mongols wars against the Delhi Sultanate....the Mongols were slaughtered everytime they encountered the armies of the Delhi Sultanate. I would like to see a documentary on that....not this nonsense

...you're all just pissed because Im right... and Im a Catholic... not a jew...

Vietnam pay tributes to everyboy including the Chinese. LMAO!!

The Mongol footage is from the barbarians series and is kinda laughable at best full of white guys with fake mustaches pretending to be Mongols. The action footage from the discovery channel doc on genghis khan was much much better. Should have Made it into a mini series. This doc is still informative though and it's cool to see Mongolia today.

chick in 9:35 needs mexican boyfriend!

jungle fighting sucks...america lost in vietnam too

...I know what you all do to Catholics

Yeah the sons were deceived and made muslims

where do you even come up with this? Mongols were shamanists, Turks were arabs. Dont mix them together. The Mongols were not turkic tribe, Mongols were Mongolic tribe, tatars were also mongolic tribe. Present day Mongolians are descendants of Chinghis Khan, its in the DNA, even many Chinese people and koreans are descendants of Chinghis Khan, because he raped so many women.
