>By the Saturday night all the walls and fortifications [of Nishapur] were covered with Mongols; and on that day Toli himself had arrived within three parasangs of Changarak. The Mongols now descended from the walls and began to slay and plunder; and the townspeople fought back, dispersed amongst the palaces and mansions. The Mongols looked for Mujir-al-Mulk and dragged him out of a tunnel. In order that he might the sooner be drawn out of the noose of life, he spoke harsh words to them; and they finally put him to a disgraceful death. They then drove all the survivors, men and women, out on to the plain; and in order to avenge Toghachar it was commanded that the town should be laid waste in such a manner that the site could be ploughed upon; and that in the exaction of vengeance not even cats and dogs should be left alive.
>A daughter of Chingiz-Khan, who was the chief wife of Toghachar, now entered the town with her escort, and they slew all the survivors save only four hundred persons who were selected for their craftsmanship and carried off to Turkestan, where the descendants of some of them are to be found to this day. They severed the heads of the slain from their bodies and heaped them up in piles, keeping those of the men separate from those of the women and children. After which, when Toli decided to proceed to Herat, he left an emir with four hundred Taziks to dispatch in the wake of the dead all the survivors that found.
But at least they were religiously tolerant.

>The Mongols now entered the town [of Merv] and drove all the inhabitants, nobles and commoners, out on to the plain. For four days and nights the people continued to come out of the town; the Mongols detained them all, separating the women from the men. Alas! how many peri-like ones did they drag from the bosoms of their husbands. How many sisters did they separate from their brothers. How many parents were distraught at the ravishment of their virgin daughters.
>The Mongols ordered that, apart from four hundred artisans whom they specified and selected from amongst the men and some children, girls and boys, whom they bore off into captivity, the whole population, including the women and children, should be killed, and no one, whether woman or man, be spared. The people of Merv were then distributed among the soldiers and levies and, in short, to each man was allotted the execution of three or four hundred persons. The people of Sarakhs in avenging their cadi exceeded [the ferocity of] such as had no knowledge of Islam or religion and passed all bounds in the abasement and humiliation [of their fellow Moslems]. So many had been killed by nightfall that the mountains became hillocks [compared to the piles of dead], and the plain was soaked with the blood of the mighty.

>When the army departed, those that had sought refuge in holes and cavities came out again, and there were gathered together some five thousand persons. A party of Mongols belonging to the rearguard then arrived and wished to have share of slaughter. They commanded therefore that each person should bring a skirtful of grain out on to the plain for the Mongols; and in this way they cast into the well of annihilation most of those that had previously escaped. Then they proceeded along the road to Nishapur and slew all they found of those who had turned back from the plain and fled from the Mongols when halfway out to meet them. In this manner many persons lost their lives, and hereafter Taisi, who had turned back from Yeme Noyan's army, arrived in Merv; he too laid balm on their wounds, and all that the Mongols found there were drawn out of the noose of life and caused to drink the draught of annihilation.
>By God we live in violent times: if we saw them in a dream we should be terrified. The people are in such a plight that he who has died deserves to rejoice.

I read a source by what I think was an Arab traveler. The gist of it was they were traveling in a group when a lone Mongol horseman came up and told them to stop. He was flabbergasted by how his fellow travelers did what they were told (even though they were likely to be killed) and he argued that he is only one man and if he kill him we can escape to which they refused, so he stabbed him and ran away. Anyone know what I'm talking about ? I'd like to read it again.

>Another man related to me as follows: "I was going," said he, "with seventeen others along a road, and there met us a Tatar horseman, and bade us bind one another's arms. My companions began to do as he bade them, but I said to them, "He is but one man; wherefore, then, should we not kill him and flee?' They replied, 'We are afraid.' I said, 'This man intends to kill you immediately; let us therefore rather kill him, that perhaps God may deliver us.' But I swear by God that not one of them dared to do this, so I took a knife and slew him, and we fled and escaped.' And such occurrences were many.

I disagree with you that they are of equal value, considering one brought culture and beauty and the other brought death and destruction, but well said nonetheless:
>>
>>1806023
PROTIP
1) The Khwarizmians were Turkics, they were founded by nomads of the same cut of Genghiz, just add Islam.
2) Hindsight is a bitch. Everyone from China to the Middle East thought less of the "Mongols." Whoever they were since they weren't even united back then. They were the erstwhile weakass Steppe Nomads that other Nomads bitched around. If you were a Khwarizmian, whose people descended from the Steppes and built a rich empire based in Persia, you too would be contemptible of these plebshit, non-muslim, noveau riche fucks who call themselves "Mongol."

Guy has a point though, the Mongol obsession is really reddit.
>The nazis were utterly disgusting human beings. Slaughtering millions of innocent Jews just because they could, invading other countries unprovoked, this sends chills down my spine, how could they be some horrible to their fellow humans? People should learn about these atrocities so they never ever repeat and wholeheartedly condemn them
>DUDE THE MONGOLS WERE LIKE UTTERLY BADASS, THEY CONQUERED MORE LAND THAN ANYONE ELSE AND SLAUGHTERED MILLIONS FOR FUN, THAT'S TOTALLY METAL! LOOK, THIS ONE MONGOL WARLORD ACTUALLY HAD ONE DUDE BEHEADED AND IMPALED BECAUSE HE INSULTED HIM IN A LETTER, HAHA HOLY SHIT THAT'S SO AWESOME, I WISH I WAS A MONGOL
And this is not even a strawman this John Green level redditcore view is extremely normal in modern pop history. Basically "genocide is awesome when non-Europeans do it".

1- The rulling class was Turkic, but the bulk of their population was persian and spoke the Persian language, it was a Persianate for a reason.
2- Even then, if a foreign power sends you a PEACE ENVOY asking for trade and support, do you:
a) Atleast hear what they have to say.
b) Murder every single one of them.
One of these is a hallmark of bad diplomacy and might start a war! Gee i wonder what one! Choose wisely!

Fiercely the Mongols entered Qazvin Town
And heads held high before were now brought down.
No quarter in that place the Mongols gave:
The days were ended of each chieftain brave.
Nothing could save the townsmen from their doom,
And all were gathered in one common tomb.
Alike of great and small, of old and young,
The lifeless bodies in the dust they flung:
Both men and women shared a common fate:
The luck-forsaken land lay desolate.
Many a fair one in that fearful hour
Sought death to save her from the invaders' power:
Chaste maidens of the Prophet's progeny
Who shone like asteroids in Virtue's sky,
Fearing the lust of that ferocious host
Did cast them down, and so gave up the ghost.
Much in that land prevails the Shafi'ite;
One in a thousand is a Hanafite';
And yet they counted on that gory plain
Twelve thousand Hanafites amongst the slain!
In heaps on every side the corpses lay,
Alike on lonely path and broad high-way.
Uncounted bodies cumbered every street :
Scarce might one find a place to set one's feet.
In terror of the Mongol soldiery
Hither and thither did the people fly,
Some seeking refuge to the Mosque did go,
Hearts filled with anguish, souls surcharged with woe.
From that fierce foe so sore their straits and plight
That climbing forms the arches hid from sight.
The ruthless Mongols burning brands did ply
Till tongues of flame leapt upwards to the sky.
Roof, vault and arch in burning ruin fell,
A heathen holocaust of Death and Hell!

As my mom once said "old money families are just noveau riche with decades on them."
Also, the Khwarizmians were Muslim and inherited Persianess and saw themselves as refined, Muslim Persian nobility. They even hated their fellow Turkics who lived as Nomads still.
