Imagine being the most powerful Empire at the time and lose against some Brown People

Soviets failed too

Bhrenizev or whatever is called was retarted

I even saw in some afghanistan war movie that has clips of soldiers walking through afghanistan

that had a narrator telling about alexander the great

and how apparently afghanistan was where his conquest ended

which is false apparently

Recent excavations of Xiongnu graves , discovered bronze decorations with images of a creature resembling the unicorn and images of deities resembling the Greco-Roman deities. These discoveries lead to a hypothesis that the Xiongnu had relations with the Greco-Roman world 2000 years ago.

The world sure is interesting huh?

not surprised

trade routes and all

Yeah, Silk Road and that shit

Still weird to imagine North-East Asian People had contact with the Greco-Roman world

wait, xiongnu was like a pre-mongol horde like nation right?

confused them for a chinese dynasty

in the Manchuria area?

They were proto-Turks.

The Xiongnu diaspora displaced the Iranian and Scythian steppe populations.

yep

The Han drove them out of Mongolia.

its kinda depressing, seeing how the russianization of the altaics basically wiped out their culture

Xiongnu=my ancestors

uzbek 2

Basically Xiongnu were both Proto-Turkic and Proto-Mongol

tfw before ottoman collapse the turkics were called turks and the turks were called ottomans

The han drove them out of Mongolia long after it was called Xiongnu, dare I say China only conquered Mongolia after the fall of Yuan Dinasty

Fuck Turkmen

They ruined Turkic

China was conquered by xiongnu relatives *twice*

first mongols

No Chinese dynasty ever conquered Mongolia, both the Yuan and Qing were foreign.

then manchus

Ah yeah

Manchus

Mfw Hans didn't conquered Mongolia but still say shit about them

Hans are a disease

reminds me of Mulan

always thought that trainer guy was saying Huns instead of Hans
