Where did Attila the Hun come in? Were Huns also Mongols?

The Huns were a Turkic tribe. They migrated west under pressure from what would become the Turks and the Mongols. They, in turn pushed the Slavs who pushed the Germans who pushed the Celts. A lot of this could be stated to have started when the Emperor Ch'in of china attacked the nomads to the north fo his territories and joined the walls to form the great wall of China.

The Emperor didn't particularly like the Huns.
