To be fair, a lot of Caucasian people have a bit of Attila in them.Or maybe it is Genghis Khan.Raiders happily raiding, you know.
Aside from a occasional tendency for wearing fur hats (and even then, only one guy out of 42 expresses it), this ancestry barely shows. There was this guy, the other morning, showing up at my door with an eviction notice and the yellow bulldozers right behind him...
The U.S. ambassador (Peter Hoekstra, the Devin Nunes of Dana Rohrabachers) to the Netherlands has been accused of interfering in national politics after hosting an event for the far-right Forum for Democracy party. The event, held at the American Embassy in Wassenaar on September 10, featured between 30 and 40 "party officials and wealthy entrepreneurs," according to Dutch magazine De Groene Amsterdammer.
Loeffler has been credibly accused of being a part owner of a WNBA franchise, so basically she's spent the past several years consorting directly with BLM activists. And yet they haven't managed to destroy her family! What's her secret? Or are they just saving her for last, as holocausters often do with victims they've been friendly with.
While y'all are laughing at this, just remember that Atilla the Hun and his Hun hoard take one look at how an average Atlanta Metro soccer mom drives an SUV and says "yikes, how aggressive can a person be?"
Europe is actually quite small compared to the great Central Asian steppe, and there have always been nomadic peoples who occasionally form large confederations and invade the surrounding agrarian civilizations. Xiongnu, Huns, Mongols, Manchu- these are the famous "horse peoples" that come to destroy the towns and cities of the more settled countries (actually, usually they come seeking tribute, and occasionally to expand their grazing lands). Typically they have a double social organization, with a "war chieftain" who leads the raiding parties, and occasionally the larger confederations, and a "peace chieftain" who governs those who stay behind with the herds.
Most of the tribes being driven from East to West during the 4th and 5th centuries were actually doing so in advance of the Hunnic Confederacy which by that point had set itself up in Scythia and was making inroads into the Pannonian basin. The Gothic tribes of the Thervingi and Greuthungi specifically requested entry into the Empire in 376 because of the encroaching Huns. Most of the Germanic-speaking peoples who came to Europe during this period either did so in advance of the Huns, or were part of the confederacy, and stayed after its collapse. Remember also that these migrations were usually multi-generational efforts. For instance, if the Huns were actually descended from the Xiongnu, it would have taken them centuries to cross Central Asia and eventually reach Europe. Often it's the kind of thing where they come to a place, set up there, and then in a generation or so, elements of their group move on.
Not every group moves from East to West all the time. It is thought that Germanic speakers started out in Northern Iran, moved to the Black Sea region, then went north up to the Eastern Baltic, then moved south and east again to east of the Balkans, and then finally into Europe as part of the 5th century migrations. Of course, some kept on going. The Vandals went all the way through Northern Europe, down through France and Spain, and then across to North Africa, where they set up a kingdom in what is now Tunisia and Libya.
Then there are groups like the Suomalaiset (Finns) and Magyars (Hungarians). Nobody is entirely sure when these two groups diverged, and whether or not the Magyars were an offshoot that left the Baltic, went back down to the steppe, and then invaded Eastern Europe in the 9th and 10th centuries.
I looked it up - Attila the Hun was born in what is now Hungary. The modern version of the name is "Adil," and I think it's may be a pretty common name in modern Albania. I actually went to high school with an Adil.
Those little dogs are often more bitey than the bigger ones. Trying to prove their toughness I guess.

Genghis Khan spread his seed mostly around Asia.
How right can you be?

True, but I wouldn't bet on Attila sparing pregnant women and, thus, their unborn babies during a raid.
not at all surprised, FvD scares the living shit out of me
Even when Rafael Edward Cruz tries to crack a joke, it just comes out desperate and sad.

I had to look it up. Attila the Hun was born in what is now present-day Hungary.

Seize him, you fools!!!!
He does have a romantic side.....https://www.youtube.com/wat...
What’s 100% “conservative” in the deep south isnt Attila the Hun attacking Rome, it’s the KKK drving through, terrorizing black neighborhoods.
And.... Asia has been around the world for years. WHAT'S your POINT?
