What if Attila was born as a:

1. Mongol
2. Saxon
3. Roman
4. Syrian
5. Norman
6. Frankish
7. Viking
8. Jurchen
9. Korean
10. Japanese

What will happen?
 
Let's just say that Attila is still the man we know in OTL history, but in a different tribe/race.

Except that Atillia wouldn't be the man we know from OTL history. How he was raised, what events he lived through, etc. would all change him past recognition.

We can debate nature vs. nurture, but even nature would be influenced by different genetics.
 
Ir doesnt really work like that. If Hitler was born in say, Australia you dont get a Nazi Australia...

That's just what the Aussies want us all to think. Then next thing we know they've Anschlussed New Zealand and are demanding parts of New Guinea, before invading Indonesia.
 
More importantly, what if Jesus had been born as:

1. Mongol
2. Saxon
3. Roman
4. Syrian
5. Norman
6. Frankish
7. Viking
8. Jurchen
9. Korean
10. Japanese

You got a problem with that?

Well, I guess we know who will be first against the wall in the new order don't we?

It is circa 400 AD: God had a bad day,drunk to much and messed some shit up:
Attila the Hun is born Attila the Viking, somewhere along the Norwegian coast.

Attila grows up and (because he is the OTL Attila) knows much about horses, the steppes and the Roman foreign policy. He identifies himself furthermore as a Viking. No one in his homevillage and neither his parents (Hilda and Sigurdr) know what the hell a viking is supposed to be - because it is 420 AD and not 900 AD - and everyone wonders why Attila looks like a foreigner.
His father Sigurds tried to get him interessted in farming and fishing but Attila just keeps talking about horse-archers and how he wants to get the half empire when he marries a Roman princes.
Sigurdr wonders what the hell Attila is smoking.
