  • I‘m a history student and it‘s incredible, how your channel is able to describe all these complex historical events in a „nutshell“ with amazing graphics. Keep up your excellent work 👍🏼
  • “He is raised by the she-wolf.” Oh man that’’s pretty cool. Teaching him how to be strong and- “The Wolf is impregnated by the now young man.” Oh good sweet lord no.
  • The Turkic Khaganate of the Great Eurasian Steppe, the Gök-Türks: They were the fathers of the mightiest tribes like Khazars (Khazaria), Onogurs (Ungary), Bulgars (Bulgaria), Pechenegs, Cumans (Cumania). They were the fathers of the great warlike Turkic tribes that created tens of empires all around the world...
  • "Your bey-like sons became slaves; your lady-like daughters became servants" that's from the same exact ancient Turkic inscription named Orkhon Inscriptions which was written with Turkic runes and written by Kül Tigin, the brother of Bilge Khagan of the Second Turkic Khaganate.
