Were the Barbarians a Negative or Posit
Were the Barbarians a Negative or Positive Factor in Ancient and Medieval History?
History is written by the people who win the battles, and discovery new things. And what we read everyday portrays the barbarians to be these mean people who steal your things, take over your villages and burn the things of the people. But we never hear anything from the barbarians themselves so we never get their side of the story on anything. I believe that the barbarians were good people who were misunderstood and did what they had to do to survive.
The barbarians were misunderstood. Going off what we know about them they were probably the smartest people of their time. They lived in the steppe nomads of Inner Asia or Central Eurasia. They could adapt to any kind of life style and live off anything. They took bits and pieces of different cultures and combined them to make a healthy life style. Also in the area that they lived in had extreme weather conditions. It will either be extremely cold or extremely hot. The fact that they can live in those extreme conditions shows how much they can live off the land.
In the article we read over barbarians we hear how there mean to everyone but has anyone ever thought that maybe it wasn’t all their fault. For all we know everything that they did maybe was in self-defense or the people were threatening them. In the article we read it said that the barbarians lived a simple way of life, but if they lived in a simple way why would they go around attacking random people? There had to be some reason behind their behavior which is why I think that they weren’t all to blame. I think the only reason we hear all about them and not the noble is because the nobles don’t want to take full responsibility for their actions, so they’re putting everything on the barbarians who were just defending themselves.
