Even a subtle climate change could have driven or allowed the offensive horse culture mongols to invade westward across grasslands (Steppe) thousands of miles of "Kansas" into defensive "infantry" cultures. As Mongol women were sent eagerly into fields of battle to decapitate all initial surviors the exception being to enslave submissive young women and young children, rational "Celtic and Slavic" tribes would have fled into the Roman Empire.

Only the sudden death of Attilla at another wedding party did the Hun withdraw from Gaul to Mongolia pursuant to their law. And climate changes?

The fate of the recently orphaned child princess bride is lost from history.

Just another reason to honor our God-given right to keep and bear arms. ...God shakes mightily the earth...
