So how did the initial contact of empires play out in the Stans? For those interested in a great short history video with good graphics and excellent key points... this offers a look at the Battle of Talas. Sources state the armies were equally matched or not in numbers running from 100,000 to 50,000.. but the outcome was decisive for many centuries to come due to other events.

True - had it played out differently - the whole Mongol campaign would have been different... and then there is its effect today as wee see the PRC wanting to put outposts into the same area to once more secure the Silk Road transit points..
