    I believe that the Mongols were barbaric and very destructive and unforgiving people. Although they were barbaric, they united Eurasia and spread ideas and were very intelligent. One reason why they were barbaric is how they ruled in battle. While they were in battle, the Mongols had one person in charge of 10 warriors and then one person in charge of 10 of those groups of ten (100) and then ten of those ten (1000) and genghis would tell only a few people what to do and it would be a chain reaction of how the orders went around to everyone.

    Genghis Khan and the Mongols were willing to go to great lengths to succeed in conquering Asia. In fact, they went much too far. Although they did do many great things for the economy of the towns they conquered, and they held many admirable beliefs, that does not excuse the fact that they killed a very large amount of people and they did so in terrible ways. 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.…

    The Mongols had very strict laws and if someone broke these laws the punishment would be so severe that a quick execution would be considered merciful. For example, if anyone was caught committing adultery, it would be punishable by execution. After great consideration, I think that the Mongols were more culturally destructive. The Mongols did assist in benefiting cultural exchange in some ways however, the destruction far outweighs the exchange. A lot could be said about the Mongols, but they were known primarily for their brutality as conquests.…
