The Mongols and the Nomads

The Mongols conquered more than the Romans, I mean it a lot. The mongols opened up trade routes. Nomads migrate according to the weather. Nomads don't generally produce manufactured goods. Nomads generally live close to nature. Mongols were small. Gengis Khan conquered a lot of land. Their are 16 million people directly descendant to Gengis Khan. Salman Khan might be directly descendant to Gengis Khan. A definition includes the Mongols proper, who can be approximately divided into the eastern Mongols (the Khalkha Mongols, the Inner Mongolians, the Buryats), and the Oirats. In a wider sense, the Mongol people includes all people who speak a Mongolic language, such as the Kalmyks of eastern Europe. Gengis Khans father was poisoned to death. Mongol peasants loved Gengis Khan. 

The designation "Mongol" briefly appeared in 8th century records of the Chinese Tang dynasty, describing a tribe of Shiwei, and resurfaced again in the late 11th century during the rule of Khitan. After the fall of Liao Dynasty in 1125, the Mongols became a leading tribe on the steppe and also had power in Northern China. However, their wars with the Jin Dynasty and Tatars had weakened them. In the thirteenth century, the word Mongol grew into an umbrella term for a large group of Mongolic and Turkic tribes united under the rule of Genghis Khan.

The Mongols created nations like Russia and Korea.

The Mongols were amazing at archery.


Mongols are a Central-East Asian ethnic group that lives mainly in the countries of Mongolia, China, and Russia. Owing to wars and migrations, Mongols are also found in some Central Asian states such as Kazakhstan. In China, ethnic Mongols can be found mainly in the central north region of China such as Inner Mongolia (a smaller number of Mongols can also be found in Xinjiang in northwest China). The Buryat branch of the Mongol ethnic group can be found in the autonomous republic of Buryatia, Russia. Ethnic Mongols are bound together by a common language and culture. They speak languages belonging to the Mongolic languages. The contiguous territories inhabited by ethnic Mongols is also known as Greater Mongolia. The Nomads don't go on random Road trips. Gengis Khans most important wife was Kidnapped and his mother to. The rich hated Gengis Khan but it didn't matter anymore because they were no longer rich. Gengis Khan killed his older brother. Gengis khan Conquered lots of people. Everyday It's Gengis's khans Descendants birthday. The Mongols were uncommonly adaptable. Beyond his military accomplishments, Genghis Khan also advanced the Mongol Empire in other ways. He decreed the adoption of the Uyghur script as the Mongol Empire's writing system. He also promoted religious tolerance in the Mongol Empire, and created a unified empire from the nomadic tribes of northeast Asia. Present-day Mongolians regard him as the founding father of Mongolia. Nomads don't trade so much. Kidnapping was common for the mongols. Gengis khan died in his sleep. Gengis khans Grandsons conquered more than Gengis khan. The Mongols were experts at siege warfare by interrogating prisoners. People were terrified of the Mongols often cities would surrender just to escape slaughter. The Mongols really did reinvigorate cross-Eurasian trade. The Mongols increased communication through Eurasia. The Yam system was also called the Ortoo, but was not called Ortoo D2. Another thing that traveled along the Mongol trade routes was cuisine. Gengis Khan failed to create a single political unit out of his conquests. The Mongols split into four just like Alexander's empire. The Mongols valued trade. The Mongols had bronze passport. This is Gengis khans definition of happiness "The greatest happiness is to vanquish your enemies. A definition includes the Mongols proper, who can be approximately divided into the eastern Mongols (the Khalkha Mongols, the Inner Mongolians, the Buryats), and the Oirats. In a wider sense, the Mongol people includes all people who speak a Mongolic language, such as the Kalmyks of eastern Europe.

In the thirteenth century, the word Mongol grew into an umbrella term for a large group of Mongolic and Turkic tribes united under the rule of Genghis Khan. In various times Mongols have been equated with the Scythians, the Magog and the Turkic peoples. Based on Chinese historical texts the ancestry of the Mongol peoples can be traced back to the Donghu, a nomadic confederation occupying eastern Mongolia and Manchuria. The identity of the Xiongnu is still debated today. Although some scholars maintain that they were proto-Mongols, the fact that Chinese histories trace certain Turkic tribes from the Xiongnu complicates the issue.
