Sigh. Yes, there is a region in asia that called Tartary in European sources. The Mongol empire was called Tartarian empire. And there is an ethnicity called Tartars. It’s all in Wikipedia.
Please stop treating this as a big secret you just discovered.
What is desputed is that advanced world spanning empire up to north america and the free energy nonsense.

I’ve spoken to two people who were born in the 1870’s, before many of your so-called “Tartarian” buildings were built. They seem to have forgotten all about your mud flood. Funny that.

I swear to god, Tartaria believers make me doubt human intelligence sometimes.
Old name for Central Asia. That’s it.
There’s plenty of amazing archaeology in that region, which gets buried and sidelined by bullshit like this, even though it has genuine potential to fill entire bookshelves.

Tartaria was a name for central Asia because 1. It was populated by many nomad groups and 2. Map makers at the time didn’t really care about the differences between the nomad groups so they just name the region after the Tartar, the group that they had the most contact with. The idea of a Tartaria empire is laughable because somehow, everyone agreed to erase all the writing about the places, including the Chinese despite the region was literally next to them and they conduct a lot of trade through that region.

I wonder how likely it is that a bunch of 18th century almanacs got a ton wrong about the geopolitical history and present of central asia rather than a free energy empire that occupied half of asia was destroyed overnight by a mudflood
