The Mongols were able to invade Kiev in 1240 due to a combination of superior military tactics, effective horseback riding skills, and advanced siege technology. Their well-organized and mobile cavalry allowed them to outmaneuver and outpace local forces. Additionally, the disunity among the Russian principalities made it easier for the Mongols to conquer the region, as there was little coordinated resistance. The Mongol strategy of psychological warfare and rapid, brutal attacks also contributed to their success in capturing Kiev.
The Russians achieved Mongol rule primarily through military defeat and political subjugation in the early 13th century, when the Mongol Empire, led by Genghis Khan and later his descendants, invaded Kievan Rus'. The Mongols employed superior cavalry tactics and psychological warfare, overwhelming fragmented Russian principalities. After the fall of key cities like Kiev in 1240, the Mongols established the Golden Horde, which imposed tribute and governance over the region, effectively integrating it into their vast empire. This rule persisted for several centuries, shaping Russian development and culture.

many Russian cities were ravaged (kiev and moscow)
Dmitry Donskoy (1350-1389) was the Russian prince who defended Moscow against the Tatars in 1378, who nonetheless re-established their rule over Russia during his reign. It took another century, until 1480, for Muscovy to break the hold of the Mongols, doing so under the rule of Ivan III (father of Ivan the Terrible).
The only part I know is they destroyed a man named Kiev.
