The Mongol Empire was the world's largest contiguous empire in history, stretching from the Pacific Ocean to Eastern Europe in the 13th and 14th centuries. Although emerging from the Mongolian steppes as uncivilized nomads lacking a basic government structure in 1206; the Mongols quickly adapted and developed an elaborate political structure to rule their vast empire. They were led by Temujin Khan, later renamed Genghis Khan, meaning “universal ruler” who amassed his following by uniting…

transferred to the west by a Chinese prisoner. So, yeah… pretty much paper making… That’s why its here. 2. The Mongols vs. Afro-Eurasia We’ve already mentioned the Mongols as big-deal world power in this era, but what they’re getting at here is that the Pax Mongolica or Mongol peace allowed for unprecedented world trade and the spread of many East Asian technologies to the West (ex. Gunpowder & Bubonic Plague) 3. The Crusaders vs. Anybody not Christian The Crusaders were initially called…

large part trade agreements. However, there is no guarantee that the current trend will continue. China is aggressively attempting to become a power that can rival America, and it will not be content with maintaining the US status quo. If Layne’s “Pax Americana” or exclusive American domination will indeed come to an end, international relations will decline. By consequence, military strength and national interests will once again take a higher priority, giving strength to the realist theory.…

Machiavelli and his ideas, while having provided the world with a foundation from which to build the concepts of political philosophy, have become largely irrelevant in modern society.

Introduction History has been scattered with great empires that rise and fall. Modern examples such as the USSR or Hitler’s shortly realized Nazi European Empire, and ancient examples such as Alexander the Greats Greek Empire, all shared the same trait of covering vast amounts of territory whilst encompassing different minorities, majorities, religions and races. The Roman Empire is one such empire that stretched from England to Egypt and covered the entire circumference of the Mediterranean Sea…

The actions and changes Julius Caesar made in his reign of Rome are very controversial subjects. For years historians have argued if his actions have shown that he was more of a hero, a selfess person who is admired for their actions and courage for the greater good, or a tyrant.
