On the third day of 2020, a certain country is doing whatever it wants internationally with the world's police. Throughout history, there are very few countries that can be called the world's police, and our country has appeared once, do you know which dynasty it is?
Looking at a certain country at leisure, I am reminded of the 13th century Oriental Yuan!
Throughout the 13th century, Genghis Khan led the Mongolian iron horse to sweep through Asia and Eastern Europe like a whirlwind, setting off a bloody storm in Asia and Eastern Europe, and it can be said that the entire 13th century was the century of the Mongols.
The Mongols had the most powerful cavalry in the world, conquering countless countries across thousands of miles from East to West. In East and North Asia, Central Asia, and Eastern Europe, four large empires were established that exceeded the size of any other country in the world.
While conquering other countries, they brutally killed tens of millions of people, and at that time the Mongol army was the largest in the world, comparable to a certain country today. If Genghis Khan had died a few years later, the Mongols would have been able to unify the globe.
At the end of the 14th century, the Mongols began to be a little overwhelmed, and news of defeat came from all over the world until the entire empire collapsed.
More than six hundred years have passed so far, and the Mongols, who are as powerful as the Kunlun Mountains, have been revived for a short time, and have never been revived, do you know why?
It has to be mentioned that ethnic assimilation, although the Mongols conquered the world in a short period of time, but the Mongols themselves are pitifully small, it is estimated that there are only four or five hundred thousand people.
Such a small number of people were dispersed to such a large territory, and after more than a hundred years of mixed life, the descendants of the Mongols scattered around the world had long been assimilated by local folklore, and some people were fully integrated into the ethnic groups of the land, which was difficult to distinguish.
So in Europe and Central Asia at the end of the 14th century, you can hardly find Mongols, and most of the Mongols in East Asia are integrated into the circle of life Chinese, so they no longer have the strong national identity of the Mongols!
In other words, you can't even understand your last name, why talk about revival?
Another point is the emergence of firearms, the Mongol army is known for its strong and fast cavalry, before the advent of firearms, the cavalry tactics were opened by the Mongols to no one else.
However, in the 14th century, the history of world weapons underwent qualitative changes, and firearms began to become a class of soldiers and played a huge role.
Firearms were simply the nemesis of the Mongol cavalry, and the Mongols were not good at using firearms, and the advantages of the entire imperial army were completely lost, such as Zhu Yuanzhang's army, which was equipped with a large number of fire bolts and red-clad cannons.
Just like the male master meets the hunter's shotgun, the prestige is gone, let alone the revival?
In fact, no matter how vast the territory of the Great Yuan, the main body of the Mongols was still in East Asia.
During this period, the Mongols actually had the opportunity to revive, but the Manchus of the Qing Dynasty were very jealous of the Mongols in the north, and while brainwashing the Central Plains people in the Central Plains Daxing Script Prison, they did not forget to lay a trap for their neighbors in the north.
The Manchu rulers promoted the Mongol religion (Yellow Religion) and vigorously promoted it, and all believers were given financial subsidies. And the already scattered Mongols were divided into several tribes, each as a king, equal to each other, forming a containment.
The longer the religion was promoted, the more obvious the drawbacks became, and by the middle of the Qing Dynasty, the Mongols, whose population was not dominant, had 500,000 religious monks.
Monks cannot marry, which means that the Mongols, whose population is already small, reproduction has become a problem again, a people who believe in the Yellow Religion and have lost their wolf nature, a people whose population cannot grow rapidly, and a nation whose country has been reduced to zero, how can we talk about revival?
