He is pretty much the most relatable historical character.
First he was cheated out of his father's legacy and forced to scavenge for food.
Then he managed to scrounge it up thanks to his foster father who was bros with his real father.
Then his wife got kidnapped, he managed to retrieve her with the help of the foster father and his best childhood bro.
Unfortunately, a rift appeared between him and the bro, turning them into rivals.
Then he fought his bro's army while trying to mend relations with him personally, and failed.

So it's all deep and personal stuff, not only bloodthirstiness and ambition.

nigga stole his waifu

implying you wouldn't do the same
also he wanted to rape China (who doesn't?)

Being a reincarnation of Alexander in tiny asian body.
That would piss off anyone.

Sedentary """people""" aren't human.

This is how nomads tended to think.

Think the way settlers in the new world saw Indians, but in reverse, and the Indians have the military edge.

His dad didn't love him

>Just keeps riding around until they find a city
>Take over the city
>Don't do anything with it/destroy everything
>Repeat for 100 years

What was even the point?

mostly to pass the time

guys gotta have their hobbies

Why do beekeepers harvest honey?

Conquering was just a thing back then, and he was the best at it.

Map painting is fun.

Conquering, raping, pillaging, and getting drunk as shit everyday is fun when you never lose.

That is why most people stop. When you lose your like ok no more pushing luck it was fun but cant go on ill do my best now to chill. But if you never lose and have the power why stop? Pussy, Gold, booze all they need.

interesting
especially since the sedentary civilizations they fought were almost always blatantly more advanced than them, how does a steppe person see his enemy as less than human when he encounters a grand city like baghdad? things his kin could never build.

>the whole mongol conquest was fueled by butthurt

who knew?

If you are a nomad that means you don't own much more other then animals and the products you can make from animals (leather, meat, milk etc). So, to keep your nomadic society on some acceptable living standard and technological level you need sedentary people to make other stuff for you. Basically all nomad civilizations depended on sedentary people living nearby or on their territory. Nomads sometimes traded with sedentary people to get stuff like agricultural products, tools, metals and so on. But trade is expensive, it would be better to get all that stuff for free. So nomads often raided towns and villages, others enslaved some people and made them produce stuff for them (kind of like serfs).

Eventually those who went with the enslaving/pillaging rout began to see sedentary people as just these creatures that drop shit for them when they go there and shoot at them with arrows.

...

he lost first then started killing everyone who had beat him, then everyone that opposed him, then just everybody. Made it his religion. Raped so many women it impacted world DNA. Then he died.

Does kahn get his chicken tendies?

He got cucked, literally.

A lot of historians say the day that Temujin decided to become the Khan of the steppes was pretty much the day that Borte got kidnapped (and raped) by the Merkits.

If the Merkits never kidnapped Borte, then Temujin was be just a bumfuck goat herder all his life.

Did the mongols do anything positive for human kind?

>especially since the sedentary civilizations they fought were almost always blatantly more advanced than them, how does a steppe person see his enemy as less than human when he encounters a grand city like baghdad? things his kin could never build.

The same way when we play video games like Warcraft we see mobs as enemies that drop gud loot and not as great civilizations to be admired.

Sedentary people are advanced but physically weaker and mentally weaker compared to nomads.

Nomads, especially Mongols, valued strength as the greatest trait. So sedentaries in their eyes are better fit to being slaves.

I must secure the existence of our people and a future for mongol children
