Topic: Bleda The Hun Posted: 23-Mar-2009 at 21:16 |

Attila and Bleda (actually its Buda) were close brothers in good relationship. No fight between them, Attila didnt kill Buda as some western historicals claim.. As the Huns, Magyars, Scythians, had dual rulership. Attial was leader of the army, he was the hysical power of the Hun empire, while Buda was teh spiritual leader of the people. Thats how the balance is kept.
little off topic: There are 2 common versions of Attila death. Attila was not killed by her wife, and not died in bleeding nose by drinking wine. Even teh greek Priscos rhetor wrote down that Attila was drinking much anytime. He was far more wise leader than get ddrunk on any occasion. Attila was assasinated in a pact of the Western and Eastern Roman empire.

That is some very interesting information there.

The direct use of force is such a poor solution to any problem, it is generally employed only by small children and large nations.

Search about Priscos rhetor, he was living Attila's camp for many ears, and he had the opportunity to look close on the life of the Huns.

I wouldgive you sources, but most of these books are in hungarian, and i dont know you bear this language or not. both the western and eastern roman empire wasnt capable to hold back the Hun empire. THe best idea was murder the symbol of the empire, Attila.The trick worked well, none of his 5 sons could control a big empire as Attila could. I have a good book about Attila's life, maybe i try totranslate two articles, oen about is death other is about his empire&army sizes.
* i had a mistake in the first post: little off topic: There are 2 common versions of Attila death.
Attila was not killed by her wife, and not died in bleeding nose by
drinking wine. Even the greek Priscos rhetor wrote down that Attila was
NOT drinking much anytime. (, i missed the n'not' world. Yes he lived sober life.) goodnight

Oh no not about the assasination that part made sense, I would rather have an explanation for such a shall we say "heavenly" view of Attila and Bleda. Seems a bit biased if you excuse my doubts.
