This video presents the history of North Asia from 14,000 BCE to 2021 CE. It showcases historical cultures and tribes as well as states and their leaders, classified according to language family.

Non-state societies which had their own ethnic identity, were prescribed one, or whose language is known are classified as tribal societies, while others are classified as cultures.

Major minority groups within the territories of premodern states and nomadic empires are shown. In such cases, boundaries of the dominant state are marked by thick outlines.

Entities are labeled on the map with their most well-known name, but shown on the key by their official names, with reconstructed contemporary pronunciation where possible. The reconstructed names of those who left no records of their own are based on Chinese records.

Note: this periodization is purely for viewing convenience and is not endorsed by mainstream academia. I divided up the eras as follows:

Prehistoric North Asia (14000 BCE to 209 BCE): the era before state formation in North Asia.
Ancient Manchuria (209 BCE to 93 CE): begins and ends with the rise and fall of Xiongnu, the first known state in Manchuria.
Classical North Asia (93 to 555): an era marked by the dominance of early Para-Mongolic nomadic empires, such as Xianbei and Rouran.
Early Medieval North Asia (555 to 900): an era characterized by the dominance of Turkic nomadic empires.
Late Medieval North Asia (900 to 1582): North Asia is dominated by Para-Mongolic and Mongol states.
Early Modern North Asia (1582 to 1917): Monarchist Russia takes control of North Asia.
Modern North Asia (1917 to present): North Asia since the Russian Revolution.
