Xiongnu
The Xiongnu (Old Chinese: /qʰoŋ.nˤa/, Wade–Giles: Hsiung-nu), were a large confederation of Eurasian nomads who dominated the Asian Steppe from the late 3rd century BCE to the late 1st century CE. Chinese sources from the 3rd century BC report them as having created an empire under Modu Chanyu, the supreme leader after 209 BC. This empire (209 BC — 93 AD) stretched beyond the borders of modern-day Mongolia. After defeating the previously dominant Yuezhi in the 2nd century BC, the Xiongnu became a dominant power on the steppes of central and eastern Asia. They were active in regions of what is now southern Siberia, Mongolia, Inner Mongolia, Gansu and Xinjiang. Relations between early adjacent Chinese dynasties to the south east and the Xiongnu were complex, with repeated periods of military conflict and intrigue, alternating with exchanges of tribute, trade, and marriage treaties.
Various attempts to identify them with groups known from further west across the Eurasian Steppe under different names remain highly controversial. The identity of the ethnic core of Xiongnu has been a subject of varied hypotheses, because only a few words, mainly titles and personal names, were preserved in the Chinese sources. Proposals by scholars include Iranian,Mongolic,Tocharian, Turkic,UralicYeniseian, or multi-ethnic. The name Xiongnu may be cognate with that of Huns (Hunni) and Huna, but the evidence for this is controversial.

Battle of Mobei 119 BC - Han–Xiongnu War DOCUMENTARY
Since the start of its history, China was in a constant state of war with the neighboring nomadic peoples and no enemy was as fierce as the Xiongnu. In this animated historical documentary, we will describe the Han-Xiongnu war and the battle of Mobei of 119 BC and how this battle influenced the fates of China and the Three Kingdoms period, and the Roman empire when it was attacked by (arguably) the remnants of the Xiongnu the Huns.

The first Huns: Modu Chanyu and the Xiongnu Empire
For millennia, the Eurasian Steppe Belt served as a barrier between the nomadic tribes to the north and the sedentary states to the south. But societies of both sides frequently clashed, especially on the East Asian side of the steppe belt. Long before Genghis Khan's Mongols conquered all of China and even prior to the expansion of Turkic identity thanks to the Göktürks, the first formal state within the nomadic steppe world was that of the Xiongnu – also called "Huna" (Huns). After gathering virtually all tribes of modern-day Mongolia, the Transbaikal and the Altai regions, the Xiongnu posed an imminent threat to the legendary Han Dynasty of China.

The Xiongnu - Introduction to who these people were and what we know about them so far.
The Xiongnu were a nomadic empire that inhabited the Eurasian Steppe from the 3rd century BC to the late 1st century AD. They were the first nomadic empire in East Asia and lasted for almost 300 years, making it the longest-lasting as well. The Xiongnu were contemporaries of Rome and Egypt and were Imperial China's greatest rival, inspiring the construction of the Great Wall of China.

Xiongnu-Hun Connection: What do we know about it so far
The Xiongnu-Hun connection has been in a heated debated since the mid 18th century, when French historian Joseph de Guignes who proposed in 1756, that the Xiongnu and the Huns are connected simply based on the phonetic resemblance of the ethnonyms of these two peoples. And we can say that this debate is still in continuation to some degree. So now that we've already covered these two people, let's explore where do we currently stand now in this discussion in each field of the study. I hope you enjoy this video.

For millennia, the Eurasian Steppe Belt served as a barrier between the nomadic tribes to the north and the sedentary states to the south. But societies of both sides frequently clashed, especially on the East Asian side of the steppe belt. Long before Genghis Khan's Mongols conquered all of China and even prior to the expansion of Turkic identity thanks to the Göktürks, the first formal state within the nomadic steppe world was that of the Xiongnu – also called "Huna" (Huns). After gathering virtually all tribes of modern-day Mongolia, the Transbaikal and the Altai regions, the Xiongnu posed an imminent threat to the legendary Han Dynasty of China.
But unbeknownst to the general public is the fact that the Xiongnu were formed in response to frequent Chinese incursions into the steppe region, not the other way around. It was only after the foundation of the Xiongnu that nomadic peoples would migrate and conquer large parts of Eurasia. In a way, the "Huns" laid the foundation for future nomadic empires to come. The ethnic origins in turn may be shrouded in history, but there plenty of clues that point to specific tribal affiliations and subsequently a sophisticated political hierarchy. Further, this "empire" was more of a confederation with many tribes that were independent internally and only united in case of external threats.
Yet, there are two leaders that ruled with an iron fist and were among the most successful in steppe history: Tumen and Modu, also known as Teoman and Mete Han. Under their leadership, the Xiongnu tribes became so powerful that the Chinese were forced to build large parts of the Great Wall and even pay annual tributes to the nomads.
But how did the Xiongnu do that? Where did they really come from and what was their lasting legacy?
In this documentary, we are going to explore both the political system of the Xiongnu during their power-political height as well as the nomadic lifestyle within their territory, their connections to other peoples of Eurasia and, last but certainly not least, delve deep into the question whether the Xiongnu were Turkic or not.

https://wn.com/The_First_Huns_Modu_Chanyu_And_The_Xiongnu_Empire
For millennia, the Eurasian Steppe Belt served as a barrier between the nomadic tribes to the north and the sedentary states to the south. But societies of both sides frequently clashed, especially on the East Asian side of the steppe belt. Long before Genghis Khan's Mongols conquered all of China and even prior to the expansion of Turkic identity thanks to the Göktürks, the first formal state within the nomadic steppe world was that of the Xiongnu – also called "Huna" (Huns). After gathering virtually all tribes of modern-day Mongolia, the Transbaikal and the Altai regions, the Xiongnu posed an imminent threat to the legendary Han Dynasty of China.
But unbeknownst to the general public is the fact that the Xiongnu were formed in response to frequent Chinese incursions into the steppe region, not the other way around. It was only after the foundation of the Xiongnu that nomadic peoples would migrate and conquer large parts of Eurasia. In a way, the "Huns" laid the foundation for future nomadic empires to come. The ethnic origins in turn may be shrouded in history, but there plenty of clues that point to specific tribal affiliations and subsequently a sophisticated political hierarchy. Further, this "empire" was more of a confederation with many tribes that were independent internally and only united in case of external threats.
Yet, there are two leaders that ruled with an iron fist and were among the most successful in steppe history: Tumen and Modu, also known as Teoman and Mete Han. Under their leadership, the Xiongnu tribes became so powerful that the Chinese were forced to build large parts of the Great Wall and even pay annual tributes to the nomads.
But how did the Xiongnu do that? Where did they really come from and what was their lasting legacy?
In this documentary, we are going to explore both the political system of the Xiongnu during their power-political height as well as the nomadic lifestyle within their territory, their connections to other peoples of Eurasia and, last but certainly not least, delve deep into the question whether the Xiongnu were Turkic or not.

The Xiongnu were a nomadic empire that inhabited the Eurasian Steppe from the 3rd century BC to the late 1st century AD. They were the first nomadic empire in East Asia and lasted for almost 300 years, making it the longest-lasting as well. The Xiongnu were contemporaries of Rome and Egypt and were Imperial China's greatest rival, inspiring the construction of the Great Wall of China.

The Xiongnu-Hun connection has been in a heated debated since the mid 18th century, when French historian Joseph de Guignes who proposed in 1756, that the Xiongnu and the Huns are connected simply based on the phonetic resemblance of the ethnonyms of these two peoples. And we can say that this debate is still in continuation to some degree. So now that we've already covered these two people, let's explore where do we currently stand now in this discussion in each field of the study. I hope you enjoy this video.

Since the start of its history, China was in a constant state of war with the neighboring nomadic peoples and no enemy was as fierce as the Xiongnu. In this animated historical documentary, we will describe the Han-Xiongnu war and the battle of Mobei of 119 BC and how this battle influenced the fates of China and the Three Kingdoms period, and the Roman empire when it was attacked by (arguably) the remnants of the Xiongnu the Huns.

Even though the Xiongnu Confederacy had existed long before his time, Modu Chanyu was the one who made it great. This is the story of how the Xiongnu humiliated the newly established Han Dynasty and set the stage for the Han-Xiongnu war.

For millennia, the Eurasian Steppe Belt served as a barrier between the nomadic tribes to the north and the sedentary states to the south. But societies of both sides frequently clashed, especially on the East Asian side of the steppe belt. Long before Genghis Khan's Mongols conquered all of China and even prior to the expansion of Turkic identity thanks to the Göktürks, the first formal state within the nomadic steppe world was that of the Xiongnu – also called "Huna" (Huns). After gathering virtually all tribes of modern-day Mongolia, the Transbaikal and the Altai regions, the Xiongnu posed an imminent threat to the legendary Han Dynasty of China.
But unbeknownst to the general public is the fact that the Xiongnu were formed in response to frequent Chinese incursions into the steppe region, not the other way around. It was only after the foundation of the Xiongnu that nomadic peoples would migrate and conquer large parts of Eurasia. In a way, the "Huns" laid the foundation for future nomadic empires to come. The ethnic origins in turn may be shrouded in history, but there plenty of clues that point to specific tribal affiliations and subsequently a sophisticated political hierarchy. Further, this "empire" was more of a confederation with many tribes that were independent internally and only united in case of external threats.
Yet, there are two leaders that ruled with an iron fist and were among the most successful in steppe history: Tumen and Modu, also known as Teoman and Mete Han. Under their leadership, the Xiongnu tribes became so powerful that the Chinese were forced to build large parts of the Great Wall and even pay annual tributes to the nomads.
But how did the Xiongnu do that? Where did they really come from and what was their lasting legacy?
In this documentary, we are going to explore both the political system of the Xiongnu during their power-political height as well as the nomadic lifestyle within their territory, their connections to other peoples of Eurasia and, last but certainly not least, delve deep into the question whether the Xiongnu were Turkic or not.

The Xiongnu were a nomadic empire that inhabited the Eurasian Steppe from the 3rd century BC to the late 1st century AD. They were the first nomadic empire in East Asia and lasted for almost 300 years, making it the longest-lasting as well. The Xiongnu were contemporaries of Rome and Egypt and were Imperial China's greatest rival, inspiring the construction of the Great Wall of China.

A thousand years before the Mongols, China had to build the world's longest wall to defend against incursions from a truly ancient enemy: The Xiongnu. Here we have an extract from the Book Of Han that describes their customs and origins - a people amongst whom "the strong and robust were held in esteem, while the old and feeble were treated with contempt."

The Xiongnu-Hun connection has been in a heated debated since the mid 18th century, when French historian Joseph de Guignes who proposed in 1756, that the Xiongnu and the Huns are connected simply based on the phonetic resemblance of the ethnonyms of these two peoples. And we can say that this debate is still in continuation to some degree. So now that we've already covered these two people, let's explore where do we currently stand now in this discussion in each field of the study. I hope you enjoy this video.

Xiongnu
The Xiongnu (Old Chinese: /qʰoŋ.nˤa/, Wade–Giles: Hsiung-nu), were a large confederation of Eurasian nomads who dominated the Asian Steppe from the late 3rd century BCE to the late 1st century CE. Chinese sources from the 3rd century BC report them as having created an empire under Modu Chanyu, the supreme leader after 209 BC. This empire (209 BC — 93 AD) stretched beyond the borders of modern-day Mongolia. After defeating the previously dominant Yuezhi in the 2nd century BC, the Xiongnu became a dominant power on the steppes of central and eastern Asia. They were active in regions of what is now southern Siberia, Mongolia, Inner Mongolia, Gansu and Xinjiang. Relations between early adjacent Chinese dynasties to the south east and the Xiongnu were complex, with repeated periods of military conflict and intrigue, alternating with exchanges of tribute, trade, and marriage treaties.
Various attempts to identify them with groups known from further west across the Eurasian Steppe under different names remain highly controversial. The identity of the ethnic core of Xiongnu has been a subject of varied hypotheses, because only a few words, mainly titles and personal names, were preserved in the Chinese sources. Proposals by scholars include Iranian,Mongolic,Tocharian, Turkic,UralicYeniseian, or multi-ethnic. The name Xiongnu may be cognate with that of Huns (Hunni) and Huna, but the evidence for this is controversial.

Wenn Die Bunten Fahnen Wehen
by: HeinoWenn die bunten Fahnen wehen, geht die Fahrt wohl über's Meer.
Woll'n wir ferne Lande sehen, fällt der Abschied uns nicht schwer.
Leuchtet die Sonne, ziehen die Wolken,
klingen die Lieder weit über's Meer.
Sonnenschein ist unsere Wonne, wie er lacht am lichten Tag.
Doch es geht auch ohne Sonne, wenn sie mal nicht scheinen mag.
Blasen die Stürme, brausen die Wellen,
Hei, die wilden Wandervögel ziehen wieder durch die Nacht
singen ihre alten Lieder, daß die Welt vom Schlaf erwacht.
Kommt dann der Morgen, sind sie schon weiter,
über die Berge wer weiß wohin?
Wo die blauen Gipfel ragen, lockt so mancher steile Pfad,
immer vorwärts, ohne Zagen, bald sind wir dem Ziel genaht.
Schneefelder blinken, schimmern von ferne her,
