    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. If only a few people flee from battle out of a ten person group, the whole entire group is sIaughtered.…

    The Mongol Empire held the largest amount of territory for an empire that the world has ever seen, and conquered it very quickly. Through the use of extreme force, the Mongols were able to conquer their enemies with haste.

    “Why did the Mongol Empire collapse?” is the question a lot of people are curious about. I always wondered how it collapsed when it wasn’t conquered by another nation. But after analyzing and reading through the history of the dynasty, I have come to the conclusion that the Mongol empire essentially collapsed not from external-human forces, but from internal affairs and uncontrollable misfortunes. To get a better understanding of how the Mongol Empire collapsed, we have to know the history of the Mongol Empire. Mongolians were nomads, and would move around in different locations with their horses and other livestock.…

    With his extraordinary military accomplishments and leadership skills, Genghis Khan was a warrior and ruler who united all the nomadic tribes in the steppe of Mongolia and built the largest land empire in the world in the thirteenth century. He left a great legacy through his innovative ideas and laws whilst also promoting religious freedom, allowing an exchange of the global economy between Asia and Europe (Weatherford). However, with a belief that there should be only one ruler under the sky, Genghis Khan was unlikely to forgive those who refused to join forces with him and vanquished millions who wanted to create empires of their own. This presented an image of him and the Mongols as brutal savages who eliminated entire cultures, devastated…
