@milvipes isnt that Turkish song? because there is same song in Turkei.

@tramiston This particular segment was filmed in Uzbekistan, with participation of Uzbek TV. The Inner Mongolians actually hired Uzbek actors to play Khwarezm people.

The men and girls who played the Horezm and Otrar people are Uyghurs most likely. Chinese movie makers chose Uyghurs it was a good choice as Horezm and Otrar were turkic cities, they didn't have chinky eyes yet then. Actually, the cross-breeding of Mongols and Turkic nations started after the fall of Otrar. After decades Mongols started to convert to Islam and married turkic women.

@kazakamerican Yes, Kazakhs mostly look exactly like mongols.

This is the story of the guy (Inalchuk Xhair Khan) who thought he was gonna show Genghis Khan how bad he was by taking a Mongolian trade caravan and killing everybody and, when Genghis Khan sent four ambassadors to figure out what had happened, sent them back with their beards burnt off.

The music at 2:30 is a Uyghur/Uzbek song.

@XAKHA3AP Hmmm! Maybe because it is for Chinese market or public. It depends who's funding this. Inner Mongolian talks several Mongolian dialect. But main one is Tsahar Mongolian dialect.

@sergeibodrov movie made by Mongolians living in Inner Mongolia which is in China.

@kazaknaughty Because it is Chinese made movie! They can't speak Mongolian but they like Mongol empire history.
Chengiz-khan's tribes were Turkic. They are now inside inside Kazakh nation.
Otrar were defended by another Turkic tribe - Kipchaks. They are also inside Kazakhs and other Turks now
