While I don’t want to be a genocidal steppe nomad emperor, I do like the idea of having a horde.

English “horde” comes from Turkic-Mongolian orda, for base/headquarters/military camp/royal court. Interesting that the English word has connotations of disorganized swarm and the original means exactly the opposite. FUD projected by European adversaries.
