Sart
Sart is a name for the settled inhabitants of Central Asia which has had shifting meanings over the centuries. According to Great Soviet Encyclopedia, before the October Revolution of 1917, the name “Sart” was used in relation to the Uyghurs and Uzbeks by Kazakhs, Kyrgyz, and semi-nomadic Uzbeks. Origin There are several theories about the origin of the term. It may be derived from the Sanskrit ''sārthavāha'' ( सार्थवाह), meaning "merchant, trader, caravan leader", a term supposedly used by nomads to describe town-dwellers, according to Vasily Bartold, Gerard Clauson, and most recently Richard Foltz. The earliest known use of the term is in the 1070 Karakhanid Turkic text '' Kutadgu Bilig'' "Blessed Knowledge", in which it refers to the settled population of Kashgar. The term referred to all settled Muslims of Central Asia regardless of language. Rashid al-Din Hamadani in the ''Jami' al-tawarikh'' writes that Genghis Khan comma ...

Military Of The Qing Dynasty
The Qing dynasty (1644–1912) was established by conquest and maintained by armed force. The founding emperors personally organized and led the armies, and the continued cultural and political legitimacy of the dynasty depended on their ability to defend the country from invasion and expand its territory. Military institutions, leadership, and finance were fundamental to the dynasty's initial success and ultimate decay. The early military system centered on the Eight Banners, a hybrid institution that also played social, economic, and political roles. The use of gunpowder during the High Qing can compete with the three gunpowder empires in western Asia. However, the military technology of the European Industrial Revolution made China's armament and military rapidly obsolete. By the middle of the 18th century, the military of the Qing dynasty numbered over 200,000 bannermen and 600,000 Green Standard troops. The Qing navy became the largest in East Asia, but its organizatio ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

The Secret History Of The Mongols

Written for the Borjigin, Mongol royal family some time after the death of Genghis Khan in 1227, it recounts his life and conquests, and partially the reign of his successor Ögedei Khan. The author is unknown and wrote in the Middle Mongol language using Mongolian script.
