proud warrior badasses in history 

I theorize that pretty much every people in history has this PROUD WARRIOR BADASS act to cover for how everyone basically wants olives/lamb kebabs/dumpling soup, sing alongs with their friends, smokes, and probably Gay sex given just how hard most cultures stomp down on Gay sex.

I'm thinking about this thanks to The Hu being serious badasses. What little I understand about Mongolian culture suggests that Mongols were especially fearsome exactly *because* there was never a dichotomy between being vicious horse-archers and guys with round faces who liked singing, smoking and dumpling soup.
