Mongolian throat singing is brilliant.

[SultanuuFicaan]

Fascinating , remember these are the same folks that had this empire and send shockwaves across the world.

By far top 3 best general of all time in world history

Subutai. Had plans to invade the Holy Roman empire too but the death of Ogedei khan prevented that.

Listen to 'wrath of the khan' segment by Dan Carlin

Nomadic pride

 

[Keyser Söze]

Chilling, haunting and beautiful

Look at this unique version

Mongolian throat rap

 

[Keyser Söze]

Mahadsanid Suldaanow, not huge fan of "rap" more traditional music kind of guy. Must admit, very unique.

 

[Lone Wanderer]

This is very cool

@SultanuuFicaan I have listened to the whole Wrath of the Khans series, it took me 5 days! The Mongol empire was truly fascinating. They would have steamrolled their way to the Atlantic, had Subutai not been forced to go back to Mongolia from modern day Czech Rep./Poland. Hardcore History is a must when you're stuck in traffic for long hours

 

[Prince of Lasanod]

The Mongol raid and sacking of Baghdad was so bad that it took 700 years for the population of Iraq to recover to the number it once was. It was more devasting than what the Portuguese done to us. It permanently changed the Islamic world and we still haven't recovered since.

 

[Arman]

They have beautiful lands

I would hardcore second Dan Carlin's entire Hardcore History production not just the Wrath of the Khans segment as it's all superb, and his Common Sense podcast that deals with current events is good too.

I'm caught up to 30+ other historical podcasts and have finished several but the 'History of Rome' is still the best historical podcast of all time. Same podcaster (Mike Duncan) is doing currently 'revolutions'/. 'History of Byzantium' is a spiritual successor to 'History of Rome' by a different podcaster however.

@VixR @Vanguard

I've been listening to Dan Carlin for more than 7 years now.

Wow. I discovered him early 2016 through the iTunes charts when I was looking for history podcasts. His reviews were through the roof; he didn't disappoint. I'll check out the others.

 

[SultanuuFicaan]

- fascinating


Tuvan by the way.

 

[Human]

By far one of the best Asian type of music there is.

I don't know but I get some African kind of vibes from these songs.

I'm not sure if this is just me.

 

[Don]

Damn mongols they destroyed the centre of knowledge the capital of the world

 

[warculus]

Anyone watched marco polo here? If not you will probably like it, its a TV-show based on the mongolian empire

 

[TooMacaan]

Whenever I see things I like this, I always wonder how exactly the first person who did it...discovered it?
What were they doing before right before...?
Sounds nice though and interesting sounds.

Remember when you would do some weird stuff when you're home alone.

Someone did that and made it public for the world to see
