Whenever Cultures clash in warfare the side that is most efficient at killing its oopponent generally wins. The Mongols developed a new way to fight by using Horse Archers and having their entire army be horse mobile. The armies of Medieval Europe as well as China and the Middle East were not prepared to fight in this way. In a sense the Mongols used an early example of Shock and Awe. The rough life of the steps had also lead to a warrior mentality. Nearly every male Mongol was a warrior. Among Medieval Europe only the Nobles and their immediate followers were. So the Mongols had a larger army capable of moving faster, reacting to changing battlefield conditions faster and inflicting damage from a greater distance then there foes. The Achilles heal was the top down nature of their system. When the Con died the fighting stopped. Had it not stopped Europe could look very different today.
