The greatest Commanders in the History of Humanity !

[islamgood1243123]

i like saladin. but should put khalid al walid the first. know why. battle of yarmouk. Umar r.a: ya khalid how many soldiers you want. khalid: give me 500. umar r.a: thats to little the romans are about 200000 troops. khalid: then give me 500 more. so total up becomes 1000 islam vs 200000 byzantine romans. and khalid al walid and his troops won the war MashAllah!

[deathtogay]

hahah what a bullshit, the greatest commander was Serb name Karadjordje even Napoleon Bonaparte said that personally

/watch?v=icNGbDyebH8

[adiel34]

Subatai Ba'adur he was the best

[arun5army]

hey...u left a lot of leaders....Fredrick the Great....Akbar.....Rommel.....­.Patton......El Cid and lot more !

[KingKong948]

Muzik reminds me to an Albanian Patriotic song.....

[mwillis1000]

Ital all opinions, but Alexander the Great and the Duke of Marlborough were both undefeated so their record is 100%, so better than Napoleon in my opinion.

[funnyguyagency]

@mwillis1000 so ur voting for any dickweed that didnt lose a battle? thats not very good standards

[mwillis1000]

@funnyguyagency

"Dickweed" They arent dickweeds, both could have beaten Napolean and such. But they both won battles which they were outnumbered in and werent expected to win, both had brilliant tactical minds too.

[Spark02ify]

@mwillis1000

Duke of Marlborough Didn't conquer europe

De Grasse also was undefeated he crushed the british navy during the battle of Cheasepeake

[mwillis1000]

@Spark02ify

Napoleon didnt conquer Europe, he COULDNT conquer us, we were far too good.

And who cares?

[Spark02ify]

@mwillis1000

No Uk never conquer europe, France did twice just a corection

Uk is an island, just lucky that it is not landlocked with France

France has been many times the first power of europe, Britain never, as you are an island, dedicated to a large navy and small army, with little influence without a coalition

[mwillis1000]

@Spark02ify

But we cnquered the world, we had the largest empire in history. Britain has almost always been the no1 power in Europe, from when we formed to now, we are the most powerful. We are the most powerful today.

[Spark02ify]

@mwillis1000

Uk conquered weak countries not powerful countries or europe alone, you tried to conquer France your asses has been kicked by a girl lol since you always fought us with coalitions

Uk never been the first power of europe rofl !!

Today uk army ?? military cut... ? 0 carrier ?

[mwillis1000]

@Spark02ify

Yes we did, if you werent such an idiot you would see that. France also invaded weak countries. Are you sure?? Did we beat you? I think we did! XD

#1-UK we are and awlays have been more powerful than you frogs!

[mwillis1000]

@Spark02ify

And so is the list of British and English victories against the French, VERY long.

Ps, we havent been conquered in almost 1000 years.

We spend more of our GDP on the military than France, so can the Eurofighter (Which is also the best non-stealth fighter in the world) and we will have the F-35 which was largely build by us British.

[Spark02ify]

@mwillis1000

Anyway Uk and France alone we are nothing, if we want to keep our influence like before and rivalise with USA or China we have to work together and you know about it

Uk and France dispite of our shit rivalry we can accomplish great think together really

[mwillis1000]

@Spark02ify

True, if Britain, France and Germany all ally and work together, we can beat anybody! I think that Britain should look less to America and more to France, Germany, Russia and Ireland (Because im Irish XD).

When Britain/England and France fought together, we have almost always won.

[Spark02ify]

@mwillis1000

Germany is only a economic power is no longer a military power

Russia hate NATO so us, and Germany don't care of Uk and France they look to Austria lol

Uk and France we are the dominant nuclear power of Europe military Uk first then France we are almost similar

That's why we are sharing our force

[kraigthorne]

@mwillis1000 The USA has not only the most powerfull millitary in the world (unless Obama gets his way) the USA has over 300 million people and the largest economy in the world. Also in just three states, Utah, Wyoming, and Colorado there is over 1.6 TRILLION barrels of oil that have yet to be tapped.

The USA has much more to offer the UK than ALL of Europe does let alone France and Germany.

[mwillis1000]

@kraigthorne

Not for long, wait until 2016 and China will take over as military and conomic power. If America fought Britain, France AND Germany, America would lose, our military would be too good, because Britain, France and Germany all have better militaries than America.

[runehawk655]

@kraigthorne

Doesn't matter, look at Vietnam. 300 Million people won't join the military. It'll take a while to tap those oil. China can invade as a amphibious landing while U.S can't.

[kraigthorne]

@runehawk655 If Obama gets a second trem you will be right and the USA will go the way of the USSR and Rome. That being said there will never be a war between the USA and China, because the USA is China's biggest traiding partner and without traid from the USA China will go into a Great Depression and the people will riot, because they will have no jobs.

[runehawk655]

@kraigthorne

I'm sure he won't get a second term and people are going to vote for the dumb asses (exception of Ron Paul) instead. Can't really compare USA to USSR but I do however see a resemblance to Rome though. I get what you mean by the economic things, the world is too tied together in a global economy to go to war these days. Well, major countries that is.

[mwillis1000]

@Spark02ify

You also forget that we have the worlds biggest arms manufactorer: BAE.

It created the Harrier (First ever jump jet), the type 45 (Best destroyer in history), the main company producing the Eurofighter, the most powerful and advanced SSN submarine, helped make the F-35 and helps make most American military gear.

WE FUCKING OWN EUROPE!

[Spark02ify]

@mwillis1000

France has the third military budget

Rafale is an omnirole fighter, that can be equiped on carrier, and it is war proven...

F-35 is obslete and even not british but much more american technology

[Spark02ify]

@Spark02ify

France defeated Uk much times in its history I don't need to send you a list

[juliusyeung0330]

the mongol generals: genghis khan, kublai khan, subudei and jebe

sun tzu

tang taizong

lee sun shin

zhu ge liang

han woo

edo (japanese)

a lot of these videos are completely biased on the western generals, how about the eastern ones? I think Zhu Ge Liang, Tan Tai Zong and the mongols to be far better strategist, decievers and tacticians than Hannibal, Julius Caesar and Napoleone.

and where are the mordern ones too? McArthur? Patton? Robert E Lee?

many lists never have these great generals

[panzerwaffe92]

@juliusyeung0330

I agree with you

[NasriTheNewKing]

@juliusyeung0330

Better than Napoleon ? He took him 12 years to conquer Europe while for the mongol he took them Decades just for china , Hannibal defeated rome , he was outnumbered 1/6 while mongols had a huge army , Julius ceaser has beaten the gaul in 8 years who were considered as the most powerfull of europe in their time , he was outnumbered 1/10 , defeated Egypt , Britania . I like several asian hero but comared to europeans they are nothing .

[nattbrygd]

The greatest commander title has pretty much been given to Gustavus Adolphus.

These might be awfuly great and powerful and lots of conquer. But Gustavus Adolphus

was pretty much the defenition of warfare.

[mrthy562]

Genghis Khan should be #1. No other commander commanded an army to victory while always being outnumber. The only commander to ever literally wipe his foe and their land off the face of the earth!

[orange252]

wtf bad napoleon map napolean never conquered hungary

[SuperDraganco]

Should Alexander The Great be First I mean HE is the greatest

[SuperHardrider]

And where is the greatest of all - Attila the Hun?

[thearabsword1]

i like the music

but where's khalid bin al walid the general who never lose a battle

tariq bin ziyad

omer bin al khattab

oqbah bin nafi'a

you need to lern about them

[panzerwaffe92]

@thearabsword1

Also Timur never lose a battle

[juliusyeung0330]

@panzerwaffe92

*lost

yes, but many commanders never lost a battle. however, khalid bin al walid fought over a hundred battles and never lost

[Chanak02]

experts don't consider ceasar a great commander... he was more on creativity and ruthlessness rather than cunning and tactics...

[Silthouted]

Khalid bin waleed and suleiman the magnificent? Erwin rommel? and yes our all time favorite Maximus Decimus Meridius :P

[BaRRingt0nxx951]

@pimpin702101 then that makes napoleon shit considering he wiped out napoleons forces at the battle of waterloo nuff said

[royalsteven]

I don't think the title great belongs to any of these sinfull men who killed people to conquer/invade/steal other one's land. But more like greatest killers in history.

[red5ify]

Dont agree with hannibal and nopolean they were both fine millitant commanders but were to reckless and idealistic in strategy to truly compete with other like Gaius Octavius or King Richard and in truth leonidus dosnt deserve that spot either like hannibal and napolean he was reckless and it got him killed caesar survived because he watched for traitors.

[TheM1431]

whers khalid bin walid.

[ccBlockKurdecc]

cyrus in kurdish cyaxeres was the greatest men father of all kurds and persian and saladin there are 2 great men in the history who was kurds!....

[TheSpurs825]

well all leonidas did was stand in a phalanx and hold the persian light infantry.

[FanNaurto]

fatih sultan mehmet II han ?

there is even a hadith on him ...

[yooRulmaz]

funny how all kurds are proud of there non ancestors but my ancestors controlled asia ! TURK

[StraightGrains]

Ramases II, Myltyades, Attilla, Alfred the Great, William the Conqueror, William Wallace, Henry V, Hernan Cortes, Francisco Pizarro, Lord Nelson, Robert E Lee.

[baloo041]

Well its a good video but what happend to Lord Nelson,Lord Wellington its a bit strange that the Greatest Empire ever known has not even got a mention ?

[juliusyeung0330]

hey, no far easterns?

that's not fair.

this is just "the greatest western commanders"

[panzerwaffe92]

@juliusyeung0330

I agree with you!!! In many videos dont show commanders from far east.

[TheMonoman14]

the duke of malbourogh,

[BIGxKURDxBOZzZ]

Cyrus the Great best general and king of all time.

[yamumisac0w]

$50 i can bet what your favortite period of history is

[K0rTexXx]

And where is Simeon The Great?

[IranianBeauty1]

Cyrus the great the king of Persia whom was half Persian half Kurd was the greatest of the greatest of all the greatest :))

[juliusyeung0330]

Alexander, Caesar, Temudjin, QinXiHuangDi... they killed millions and still we call them heroes... but it's cool. at least they conquered he world

[outlawfly]

Cyrus the great....easy

[outlawfly]

Cyrus The Great....easy.

[KurdishPKKFighter]

Cyrus The Great Comes First Of ALL!!!!!!

[juliusyeung0330]

woha...

If you look at the mongol empire, it's 3 times bigger than alexander's empire.

HUGE

but mongols were bad rulers

[TheScienceofnature]

@juliusyeung0330 mongols had the second largest empire to date. after the British.

[juliusyeung0330]

@TheScienceofnature Mongols were the biggest by land.

but yea, the British had colonies everywhere. the sun never sets on the british empire.

I live in one of the colonies. well, not anymore but it used to be a colony till 1997.

[TheScienceofnature]

@juliusyeung0330 the British were the biggest by land. the british empire=33.7 million km2 in 1922. the mongol empire= 33.0 million km2. you have to think about the fact that britain controlled the entire continent of Australia, north america (USA excluded in this calculation), south africa, the Caribbean, parts of northern africa and middle east as well as india and pakistan, they also claimed parts of northern and southern poles in exploration expeditions which is not included here as well.

[juliusyeung0330]

@TheScienceofnature no, what i meant is that the mongols the biggest by connected land. you know what i'm saying? the british empire is separated by sea so what i said was the mongols had a massive land for their empire

[juliusyeung0330]

Napoleon, qin xi huang di, Genghis Khan, Alexander the Great, George S Patton, MacArthur, Sun Tzu and also Wellington who defeated Napoleon.

[Ulver27]

wellington defeated NApoleon not cause he was a better general but he had almost the double size army and it was one of naponeon's generals that made the mistake and gave wellington the victory

[juliusyeung0330]

@Ulver27 napoleon went downhill around that time Wellington>Napoleon

[Ulver27]

@juliusyeung0330 I explained clearly why napoleon lost plus that there were more reason why he lost. I doupt if wellington could do even the 1/4 napoleon did in his life. thats why napoleon is knows as great and wellington is not.

[Melven200]

I think napoleon is the greatest commander of all time.

Heres the thing Gengish Khan fought heavely armourd knights with light horse archers (ps he had alot of "em) of course he won against them.

Alexander the great he whought against light infantry with heavy infantry in open plains of course he won.

Napoleon fhought more battles than Gingish Khan and Alexander the great combined ,of course he would loose some battles.

[TheScienceofnature]

@Melven200 that is a fair was to judge. modern warfare is harder than ancient ones simply because its not enough to defeat armies to gain control of territories, the politics to sustain territories under the control of the empire for long enough should be taken into consideration when dealing with the skills of a leader. mongols never maintained control of the lands they conquered. often they return to conquer it over and over again and they had no governing skills.

[ForME4mi]

yeah its true Hitler is a dumb ass leader!he shot himself dead!

give his generals some credit!!

G.khan.. #1

Alexander.. #2

Hanibal.. #3

[juliusyeung0330]

@ForME4mi Hitler was a pain in the ass and he thought he was a great tactician.

[CherepanovKV]

Did you forget Alexander Suvorov

[HerroHerrar]

my two favorites are saladin and hanibal

[TheScienceofnature]

@HerroHerrar salahadine is a special one in this list as he was the most noble and respectful to his opponent. often providing medicine and cold water to the other army to show respect for their bravery in battle. when richard the lion hearted got ill, salahadine sent him medicine and cold water. other leaders often mutilated the bodies of their opponents. you could say salahadine was ahead of the modern Geneva Convention which protects POW's from harm.

[LeDucdeMontebello]

Hitler wasnt really a great conquerer, he held most of europe for about 3 years before things went downhill for him, I dont think thats long enough to call it a great empire

[ScallySkinMaster]

euh, napoleon didn't held much of his conquered territories for much more than 10 years and his adversaries were european states while hitler had to face a lot of countries worldwide as well.

[juliusyeung0330]

@LeDucdeMontebello Hitler became a leader because he was like a lot of other german facists. they believed in crazy things and hitler used that to become a leader. he was a dumbass leader.

[Serok2707]

This list without "Cyaxares" is nothing.

[BaRRingt0nxx951]

how bout rommel, richard the lionheart, duke of wellington, and lots more

[StolzerKurde92]

There are hundreds of great commanders which have not been mentioned in my video :)

If I would have all in my video it would take about a hour :)

[StolzerKurde92]

But I will make a "Part 2" video :)

There will be also some really great commanders.

And for all who think Hitler was a "commander"....

This guy was a complete idiot without his generals he would be nothing.

And he often did not hear to his generals so stop claiming he had been a "commander".

[sa4ir]

@StolzerKurde92 where is sultan süleyman the magnificent?

[AryanMithra]

@StolzerKurde92 He was one of the smartest politicians, if we Kurds only had 1 person like Hitler ...

[david882011]

@StolzerKurde92 if hitler hadnt order to invade russia or been ally to japan he would have won :P

[panzerwaffe92]

@StolzerKurde92

Oh yes WHAT IS THE NAME OF THESE SONG??? I´d like it!!!

[austinoltj]

@BaRRingt0nxx951 The Duke of Wellington??? Really????

[BaRRingt0nxx951]

@austinoltj yea i consider weelington great for defeating napoleon

[austinoltj]

@BaRRingt0nxx951 Wellington won one good battle.... And it was because the Prussians came and outnumbered Napoleon, and 1/3rd of his army was no where to seen, and Napoleon was sick. Wellington didn't even consider it his greatest victory.

[austinoltj]

@BaRRingt0nxx951 Ok so what about Blucher then??? Wellington wins one battle. Napoleon's lost 9 times.... Does that make his enemies the best commanders of all time???? Of course not, and by the way, read about Waterloo. Wellington was losing until Blucher showed up.

[BaRRingt0nxx951]

@austinoltj uhhh i have no clue who that is to be honest and i commented on this over a year ago and the reason i consider him great is becuz of his tactica against napoleon

[austinoltj]

@BaRRingt0nxx951 Exactly YOu know nothing about the Napoleonic era so you have no right to say Wellington was better. Blucher was the Prussian commander.

[CelestinPL]

Than u are a pussy worth nothing, because you act politically correct, like all the fags that were told to erase someone from history, and 2000 years later such gays like you make a movies about them - THE GREAT LEADERS. Noone asks how many people Cesar or Alexander did killed, cause it was too far time away, that only the splendor of victory has left. Same gonna be with Hitler, as always it happens...

[StolzerKurde92]

It is true !

Caesar and Alexander had been true murderer !

But I dont think that both of them were such cruel as Hitler was.

He was not a Human he was a sick perverted and that is something you can not compare to Caesar and Alexander !

They wanted glory and money !

Hitler wanted destruction and hate !

So stop talking bullshit !

[CelestinPL]

Tell me than, which school learn such bullshit :D?

Rather read Mein Kampf instead of repeting that propaganda.

[ScallySkinMaster]

ich bin kein hitler-verfechter, aber zu behaupten, dass er keinen ruhm wollte und nur hass, ist wohl an den haaren herbei gezogen. er hat hass gesäht, wollte aber natürlich ein gloreiches reich, das andere dominiert und steht bzgl. dieses vorhabens in einer reihe mit ceasar und alexander!

[BaRRingt0nxx951]

@StolzerKurde92 no hitler wanted a pure race not destruction and hate you idiot. oh and if germany had won stalin would be "the hitler" example john wilkes booth he shot abe lincoln and guess what happened instead of being praised and honored he got hunted down like a dog and he blew his brains out :)

[david882011]

@CelestinPL josef stalin killd more ;)

[panzerwaffe92]

@CelestinPL

I agree with you

[CelestinPL]

And where is Hitler?

[StolzerKurde92]

I dont want to have him in any of my videos.

He is not worthy for the title "great".

It is true that he was a successful conquerer but I can not accept him.

[panzerwaffe92]

@StolzerKurde92

I like Caesar BUT hi killed about 1 million people in Gaul of 8 million of population. Alexander the Great destroys Persepol and Tire. How about the siege of Carthago in 149-146 BC. There are cilled about 250 000 people. In ancient times when the world population was about 200 million these number is VERY GREAT!!! So Hitler aren´t so bad,he put up Germany by 6 years, but I am not for Hitler.

[Bojmer]

Ah Hannibal at the gates. He is through my opinion the greatest commander of all time. Great video!

[StolzerKurde92]

;) Yeah Hannibal was genius !

Sadly in front of Rome he did some mistakes or he would be the winner of this war.....But he could manage to win against the much larger Roman army with his much smaller army ;)

[Bojmer]

Yeah, he did some misstakes and thanks to Scipio Africanus he had to return to Carthage. What if Hannibal had conquered Rome, then the roman empire wouldnt exist. Now thats something!

[FulyaZenginerTV]

Bezeichnung für das Reich der Dynastie der Osmanen von ca. 1299 bis 1923. In Europa wurde das Land als „Türkei beziehungsweise „Türkisches Reich bezeichnet.

[RitterSchloss]

Das große türkische Reich fehlt und das Reich der Azteken in Süd-Amerika. Und seit wann haben die Kurden ein Land ? hehehe

[StolzerKurde92]

Welches groß türkische Reich ?........

Ich vermute du meinst das Osmanische Reich ,dann ist es aber ein osmanisches Reich und kein türkisches mein Freund ;)

Die "Osmanen" waren nicht mit den "Türken" im heutigen Sinne in Kontakt zu bringen ! Es war ein Vielvölkerstaat und keineswegs ein "rein" türkisches Reich ! Darin lag ja die besonderheit des Osmanischen Reiches !!

[britishbulldog100]

Die Osmanen waren Selcuken die seit Jahrhunderten Dynastien gegründet haben. Es war ein Vielvölkerstaat auf dem Balkanteil so wie im Nahen Osten mit dem Araber die allesamt Verrat begangen haben. Die "Kurden" wollen das jetz so nachmachen indem sie sich abspalten wollen obwohl sie als Nomaden früher kein Problem hatten sich als Türken zu bezeichnen da Türken schlechthin als Nomaden galten davor

[StolzerKurde92]

Und um deine eindeutig fehlende Allgemeinbildung weiter zu korrigieren will ich dir auch deine Frage beantworten.

Es gab in der Geschichte mehrere kurdische Staaten. Ich zähle dir mal nur die zwei bekanntesten auf : Die Republik von Ararat und die Republik von Mahabat.

Dies waren Staate.Und um dieses Thema ins Aktuelle zu rücken gibt es heute die Autonome Region Kurdistan,die hoffentlich bald sich Unabhänig erklären wird ;)

Ich hoffe ich konnte dir weiter helfen !

[Naraku111]

2 of them were Kurds :D

Cyrus the great(half Kurd half Persian)

and Saladin

[kurdologe09]

Kyaxares I. was a kurd, too!

Kyaxares II. have the median empire (early persian empire) made in the largest expansion!

Cyrus right (half kud half persian)

Salahadin ayubi has a kurdish father

Nadschmuddin Ayyub was a kurdish soldier.

[Havachstra]

WO IST KYAXARESSSSSSSSSSSSS Omg

DER VATER DER KURDEN FEHLT :(

:(

[StolzerKurde92]

Kyaxares !!!! AAAHHHHH scheisse.......

Ich wusste ich hab jemanden vergeßen....Ausgerechnet der erste König der Meder und ich vergeße ihn -.-

Es tut mir leidt mein Bruder ich verspreche dir das ich diesen großen Helden im meinem Meder Video den ihm gebührenden Platz erweisen werde....

Es tut mir leidt.....

[Havachstra]

Ok entschuldigung angenommen, ey mein herz ging kaputt hahaha KYAXARES! :D er ist unser Vater braaa

"Em xortên Medya û Keyxusrewin

Dîn îman û ayînman, her niştiman

Dîn îman ayînman, Kurd û Kurdîstan." :D

[MederKurde5]

Gutes video :D

Cyrus(Kurrosh) war halb Kurde/Meder

Seine mutter war die Medische prinzessin namens Mandane die Töchter des Medischen/Kurdischen könig Astyages.

Aber in den videos, finde ich welche überflüssig wzb Leonidas.

Er hat die Meder und Perser nur etwas aufgehalten, doch die schlacht gegen die garde der unsterblichen hat er trotzdem verloren.

Er wird hallt in dem film übermächtig dargestellt, was eigentlich im warheit nicht stimmt.

[StolzerKurde92]

Ja das mit Cyrus habe ich gehört er war ein sehr guter König ! ;)

Und das mit Leonidas kann ich verstehen, jedoch finde ich hat seine Kampfstrategie sich sehr gut bewährt.

Besonders die Phalanx die er fast schon perfektioniert hatte ist eine große militärische Leistung.

[MederKurde5]

Ja hasst du recht was das angeht.

Doch es gibt größere persöhnlichkeiten als leonidas in der weltgeschichte die es eher verdient haben in das video zu kommen :D haha

aber nicht weiter schlim .)

[StolzerKurde92]

Ich plane auch grad zur Zeit ein Video über die Meder ;) kann ich dir ja zeigen wenn ich es fertig habe mein Freund :D !

[MederKurde5]

Über Meder?

Da bin ich mal gespannt :)

[StolzerKurde92]

Ja ;) Ich will besonders den Kampf gegen die Assyrier aufgreifen und die besondere Geschichte der Meder und ihrer Nachkommen ;) (Mittani etc.)

[RapFighter92]

Sehr geiles Video mit hammer Musik und großen Persöhnlichkeiten der Geschichte

Aber ich finde der beste war Hannibal er strategisch sehr klug und hatte mit einer viel kleineren Armee die Römer ziemlich zum schwitzen gebracht ! :D

[StolzerKurde92]

Ja Hannibal war im strategischen sehr genial ! Man möge sich bloß an die Schlacht von Cane erinnern..... Große Leistung. Aber ich finde,dass Napoleon ein sehr guter Stratege war und sich als der größte Kriegsherr heraus gestellt hat.
