The Huns’ origin is a little complicated topic, and historians don’t usually come to a single conclusion. All the origin stories that we have are speculation based on archaeological, and other evidence as we discussed in the last video. But what we have, that almost all the historians agree on, are the events that took place after their appearance around 370. Contemporary authors of the Roman empire as well as the authors from other places give us accounts of the Huns, that are enough to create a narrative of what was the overall picture of the Huns after their arrival. Although historians would have treasured the written records from the Hun’s point of view, but now that we do not have them, we have to manage with all that we have. I hope you will enjoy this summary of the events that took place between their arrival and Atilla’s rise to power.

The Cat Emperor, MaxiPuss.
Usually Goths flee from approaching daylight and make their stand upon the landscaping around Peet's Coffee. Grotty little sticks. 🎉
There were no nations at the time 😂
Ah… Another Western propaganda about the Huns (Not your video but your sources were all one sided exagerated propagandas). Calling them barbarians without looking what they were doing at the time. I just watched a BBC documentary about Attila. He was jumping on the fire … Lol.
New favourite historical channel
ut oh here comes trouble
great work, thank you @Boringoldhistry
Khotan, Tocharian Aryas are lords of Hun Avar Turk Mongol Tatar tribals. North Tribals are repeatedly €n$laved by Aryavart. R1a1a/R1a1 is the conqueror. Indra worshipping Mittanis are the 1st to win Mesopotamia.
++++++++++
Latest WAVES of Aryas from ARYAVART
👉B/w 300BC-100CE from the Ganges Khotan, TochaArya Kshatriyas conquered Turk, Mongol, Tatar, Tibet tribals of Tarim basin+Tibet. K-Ts, bore pure Sanskrit names, wrote in Brahmi, 800CE onward became kings/lords of TMTT conquered C.Asia, Iran, M.East, Arab, Ezypt, Greece, Balcan, Europe, Tibet, China. K-T's literature is oldest in whole of Northern hemisphere including Europe & Tibet.
👉1st c CE Aryavart's Aryas landed in Arabia during Indo-Roman trade, brought navigation, bred with tribal women. Becoming lords of Arab tribals conquered M.East, Iran, Anatolia, N.Africa, Spain, Cicily. Think why Arab couldn't dare attacking I-R ships, attack Mesopotamia before 7th c if they're martial race. Think why Arab couldn't make voyage before.
👉Norse, Goths are Kshatriyas, directly from the Ganges, penetrated Europe not before 4th c. Evidences: Gupta age Vishnu idol in Volga Russia. Europe's 1st literature "Norse" of 10th c is 2k years younger than Aryavart's regional literature. Vimanas in Europe's castles, churches are certainly not Greco-Roman. Timber built Kiev, Novogorod are replication of Mauryan-Gupta age cities. Timber architecture of Scandinavia still survives in the Himalayas. Funerary cremation of N-G. Aesir-Vanir from later Sanskrit Asur-Deva story. Edda from Veda. Goths are declared Arya. Baltic languages akin to modern North Indian. Scandinavia named after lord Shiva's son Scanda or emperor Scanda Gupta. Scanda+Nauv, Nauv= Ship in Sanskrit.
++++++++
Aryavart's conquest of west, white & north tribals 👉2k BCs Mittani-Hatti-Hari upto Anatolia. In 1k BCs upto Greece, Rome, there're RgVedic Elina, Dyus (Zeus), Mitra. 👉 900BC RgVedic Parsu conquered Persia. In 550BC upto Greece, Balkan, Ezypt. 👉Since 750BCs whites, C.Asian, G.Steppe tribals are conquered by CimmeArya, Saka, Sauromata, Alani, Raslani, Kushan, Wushun, Xiangnu. 👉750BCs CimmeArya, Saka upto Balkan, Ukraine, Russia. 👉300-100BCs Sauromata, Alani won Ukraine, British-Irish isles, there's RgVedic Danu. 👉 300BC-300CE Khotan, TochaArya conquered Truk, Mongol, Tatar tribals (Tarim basin) from Gangetic plains. 👉250BC Parthian conquered Persia, Mada, M.East, Anatolia. 👉Mittani descent Roman conquered whites in 100BC. 👉200CE-500 Goth, Norse conquered whites directly from Gangetic plains. 👉350CE Xiangnu, Khotan descents Hun won 1/2 Europe. 👉400CE Alanis upto Spain raiding Greece, Italy. 👉200CE during Indo-Roman trade Aryavart's Aryas landed in Arabia. 8th c. latest+ Irani Arya led Moors-Arabs conquered whites in Spain. 👉Khotan, TochaArya led Turk, Mongol tribals conquered whites in 9th-13th c.
there is a story of a high ranking priest that stole items from one of atila the huns high ranking officer homes, subsequently atila went on a conquering spree that pretty much ended rome.
As The Huns Were Savage and Cruel,
And The Civilised Victims Attacked By Them Had Fortified Locations,
They Should've Scouted For The Women and Children Of Huns(Nomads) and Capture Them, Not Engage In Direct Confrontation!
Victim's Armies Split, 1 Side Defends The Local Population, The 2nd Goes Scouting To Capture Their Women And Children!_
It is bizarre to show Hungary with the 1920 borders as a possible settlement of the Huns. Probably, no one would have chosen an area so impossible to defeat. Rather, the mountains and great rivers of the Carpathian basin served for the Huns as natural borders.
Historians get one thing wrong about the hun
The hun were a white caucasian people of the central Asian steppe Chinese records describe the hun as sandy haired with green an blue eyes
Attila had blonde hair a green eyes and a roman nose definitely not mongoloid
,many white nomadic tribes lived on the central Asian steppe before migrating west wards
People need to stop showing Asiatic people's when talking about the
Hun
Allan's
Tartars
Kurgan an many more aryan peoples from central Asia
White nomadic people left burial grounds from western china to the Caucasus mountains
An dna testing has been done on hun remains showing caucasian origin
You didn't cover the blonde hun who inter married into the eastern German tribes
Great prouction and narration!
Ahhh barbarians versus Romans.. ahh the partial ancestors of the Hungarians
3:44 This painting shows Cossacs fighting against Tatars in the 17th century in nowadays Ukraine. You can even see that the first Cossac on the left has a firearm.
My hometown was Pavia, Lombardia and totally-destroyed by Attila. Funny story…I was once on FB, and wrote "Italians hate the memory of Attila the Hun". Well…FB put me in FB-jail, for "expressing hate speech"!! haaaaaa…. No reason to remain on FB after that idiocy 🙂 buona fortuna. this is a VERY-good History Channel…subbed/liked
