    As a Kazakh, I appreciate this video!
  • @Karabulut96
    my mother comes from Polish Tatars, so I'm also partly Kipchak, best regards, great material as usual😊
  • @nenenindonu
    The Kipchaks produced some of the greatest Mamluk rulers such as Baybars, Qalawun, Iltutmysh,... the Mamluk Sultanates of Egypt & Delhi were also founded by two Kipchaks both named Aibak
  • @aisar3353
    As a Pecheneg-Cuman descended Turk, this detailed explanation piqued my interest. Greetings to the entire Turkic world!!
  • As a Crimean Tatar of Kipchak origin, Thanks for the very informative video of our history.
  • Fun Fact: A Cuman contingent was instrumental for the Habsburg victory over the King of Bohemia Ottokar at the battle of the Marchfeld taking place in what is today eastern Austria. Thus helping establish Habsburg rule over central Europe.
  • @arghunpride5704
    Kings & Generals, thanks for this remarkable video about Qipchaq nomads! Peace and blessings to everyone 🕊️from Kazakhstan! 🇰🇿
  • FUN FACT: Yuan dynasty had personal guard contingent made of Kipchaks. Kipchak guards were sent by Yuan emperrors to quel rebellions of Mongol noions (lords) and Yuan remnants. For instance they supported Khubilai against Ariq-Buga. Kipchak guard was also effective at taking Song cities in China. Two commanders are referred numerous times in Yuan Shi: Tutuha and El-Temir, who belonged to Kipchak clans that peacefully joined Mongols. El-Temir was the last commander of Kipchak guard, when he died and the kipchak guard dissolved Yuan dynasty also siezed to exist. (Update: Iw wrote this comment before finishing watching the video. I am glad all this can be found in the video)

    I am a Cuman Hungarian or kun magyar, living in a town named after a Cuman prince, Zotmaz. As a physician, scientist and philosopher, I can assure you that we are still very much alive today.
  • @9wowable
    Interesting thing about the Cumans for me is that, I a Hungarian, am from the Paloc subgroup. Paloc in many Slavic languages is Polovotsy, which is also the same word for Cuman. Many Cumans settled in Hungary, so it’d be interesting to ever find out how linked we are.
  • @AegeanGreywolf
    05:30 In Turkic culture white color represents the west and likewise blue - the east, black - the north and the south is red. Those who migrated to western lands from Turkestan and Mongolia often adopted white color such as huns and cumans while eastern Turkic people like Gökturks were using blue banners
  • @labnab6764
    Here in Kazakhstan and probably other Turkic peoples, we have kind of tribes within ourselves, and of them is called kipchak, meaning we truly are descendants of cumans
  • @user-rq3ri2gg6c
    As a Hungarian living in Serbia, I am proud of my Cuman ancestry. Because there are also four settlements of Cuman origin in this country. And in Hungary, an entire region consists of residents of this origin. Only in the past eight hundred years has it been relatively explained.
  • @subutaykhan9387
    Salute to all my Qipchak sisters and brothers from Türkiye
