Did the Huns ever take over China?

Answer 1

Yes, the Huns had a major impact on the Northern and Northwestern regions of China. They invaded and conquered these areas. The Chinese called the Huns the Xiongnu, hense the name for the first capital of a unified China which was named Xion. I've been to this ancient city and it's very impressive with it's thick walls that stretch for 14 miles. Eventually, the Huns assimilated into Chinese Han culture and their territory separated into a Northern and Southern Kingdom whereby they were no longer a unified people. After this transition took place the Huns who lived in the Northern Kingdom who hadn't assimilated into the Chinese Han population and culture began to expand their empire Westward into Europe.
