I would like to mention Genghis Khan. I've heard that on one occasion he divided up the inhabitants of a large city, assigning five people to each of his soldiers. At a signal, each soldier killed his five, destroying the population within seconds, and what? an hour or less to spread them out among the soldiers? The Holocaust wasn't that efficient.

If the Mongol empire had survived to the twentieth century, what would it be like? What horrors would it's government be capable of?

Yupp. I agree. As said, Gengis WAS the worst villain of human history. He just landed in underdevoloped 12th century (13th?) century.

imagien if someone jsut like him appeared in modern times. Even in the WWI era he could do a killing of over 150+ million people.
 
It'd probably involve a religion or idealogy, as thats (hopefully) the only way to get people to go along with something worse than Nazism. Granted, Timur the Lame is near the top of the list, and he wasn't really a good Muslim (though he liked to think he was).

Maybe if you edited out the tolerance for the People of the Book, made the restriction muslims had to follow more numerous, and put more emphasis on Jihad, in Islam, you could do it, but Islam likely wouldn't have become so widespread in that case.
 
Something that would be really unpleasant, to say the very least, would be an industrialized Aztec Empire of sorts (as discused in the Azzie-tread), or failing that, some other culture used to sacrifizes, slaves and ritual combat/blood sports.

Or a slaveholding semi-fascist Confederacy with a strong religious touch and/or siege-mentality, or any other racist policestate with religious overtones!

What would make a society really scary, I should think, would be one where human rights were none excistent, an intolerant ideology/religion dominated and the state was not governed by law but by brute force...

Best regards!

You just described Ba’athist Iraq, Libya, Iran, North Korea, Myanmar/Burma, etc.

Um, a lot of the mongol governments DID survive for quite a while. Basically they all drastically "calmed down". The Mongols (not just Genghis, they were all into it) committed many terrible atrocities when they were nomadic conquerors on the first major military campaigns. Once they settled down to rule conquered territories and learned how much wealth you could get from functioning farms and cities, the atrocities dropped off drastically. The Mongols also had a tendency to culturally assimilate into the conquered lands - they were ruling civilizations richer and more learned than their own and they knew it, in some respects they were eager to adopt to sophisticated local ways.
 
Evil India , After independence, RSS, A hindu nationalist organisation wanted to to coup the new Indian Government and create a Hindu dominated Govt. If it happened, India would first and foremost kill or convert all its Muslims and Christians. Sikhs, Buddhists and Jains would be spared since RSS considered them an offshoot of Hinduism but conversions to those religions would be banned.

India would be much stronger Militarily and be an Ally of USA during Cold war, India would also try to annex Nepal, Bhutan and Sri Lanka, Because of their Hindu and Buddhist Populations. Kashmir would be cleansed would have near 100% Hindu Population.

Also India would Not be called India, But it will be called Bharat. Sanskrit will be one of the largest languages in the world as RSS promotes them but they also promote regional Languages

India Or Bharat, will be a staunch supporter or Israel and advise them to do the same thing against the muslims as India did. India will be really aggressive against Pakistan and will control places which they occupied in Pakistan. Such as Lahore

During 1971 war, India will try to annex Bangladesh or parts of the country and will to the same thing to muslims as they did to their own muslims.

In short India world be stronger militarily and would be larger in terms of area, population would be less because of killing the muslims and christians.
India would be A Hindu Saudi Arabia will nukes and a Military strong enough to challenge even USA.
 
I have never seen why necros are considered "bad". Would you rather old threads disappear down the memory hole? There is often useful and interesting information in them, and people have often put a lot of time and effort into their posts. It would be a shame for them to be completely forgotten. It just seems like a waste to me, for the same debate to be recreated years later on a new threat.

As for this thread, I was not surprised to see it degenerate into yet another Hitler vs Stalin debate. My own opinion is that they were both quite bad, but even worse regimes are entirely possible. Imagine a more competent ISIS. Their stated goal is the death of everybody in the world who does not belong to their own particularly twisted version of Sunni Islam. That's certainly worse than what either the Nazis or the Stalinists had in mind.
