This book raises the case of the world's first nomadic empire, the Xiongnu, as a prime example of the sophisticated developments and powerful influence of nomadic regimes. Launching from a reconceptualization of the social and economic institutions of mobile pastoralists, Bryan K. Miller traces the course of the Xiongnu Empire from before its initial rise to after its eventual fall.
