Historians believe that the mongol invasion of europe and asia brought about positive as well as negative consequences. One way they should this is by the mongols tricking their enemies.In passage one it says they told their enemy that they surrender and waited till they all came out of their castle to slaughter everybody they saw.this supports my thesis because it shows that they tricked people a lot.so by doing that they cant help each other because they could just think the mongols are trying to trick them so they won't believe them and won't help them do anything.
In passage two it says a good thing they did was introduce trade and help make trading routes.when the mongols made routes to trade on they allowed people to get goods they couldn't get where they live and it helped spread culture and religions to other parts of the world.while the road was new it started a period of peace called pax mongolia.with the new trails they opened up hospitals and orphanages.

    Genghis Khan and the Mongols were willing to go to great lengths to succeed in conquering Asia. In fact, they went much too far.

Genghis Khan had incredibly strict rules for his men. Document 2 states that if a group of 10 people flee from battle, then the other 90 people that were part of that group all get put to death.…
