Why were mamluks bvlls so much more effective at destroying culture than Mongolcucks? Mongols raped and slaughtered thousands only to end up spreading Islam and Persian culture into Northern Asia. Meanwhile the Mamluks completely eviscerated the Frankish influence in the Middle East.
>>18438991Because I e was fighting natives and one was fighting the descendants of maybe 10% of an already smamall expeditionary force?Most crusaders went home after every single crusade, the mamluks could've ignored them and they'd still have vanished in all but name within a few centuries due to interbreeding, cultural synthesis, and regular infighting and small conflicts killing off the knights and nobility.
>>18439233LOL the Mamluks literally wiped out the very infrastructure of the Crusader states, Antioch and Acre were nothing but ruins for centuries to come, the countryside a desolate wasteland inhabited by Turcomans.
>>18439301And?
>>18439303Naught remained of all that the Crusaders built.
>>18439305Seems like a running theme, whites build and shitskins destroy. Maybe there is something to that light vs dark eh?
>>18439313The Mamluks were a multi-racial brotherhood.
>>18439305And?Again, that would've happened regardless, it's not an achievement.
