    Not all of us watch while listening attentively! Love to hear before retiring without the visual input. Besides, it’s too complicated for me to do both at the same time!

  • “The audience will not hear all these (mouse) clicks”

    But the audience did hear them! And they wrote about them in a review.

    Jokes aside, I give this an A-, it would be a + if you spent a bit more time on the climatic parts of various battles, as much as you do on the set up.

The Mongol invasion of the Jin Dynasty🎙️Ft @TheJackmeisterMongolHistory ​
Q: Do they approach these negotiations as just a member, or like so that it's kind of a footing of equals, or are they even looking at it from a point of view that they are actually like maybe say about like kind of more of a vassal relationship?
Jack says the early Mongol Empire probably still had a formal or informal vassal relationship with the Jin Dynasty, and continued sending tribute until around 1210. He describes Mongol leaders as anticipating a break in that relationship and seeking a pretext for war.
