I believe it was due to feuds between Genghis Khan's sons or grandsons. What happened was, after Genghis Khan died, the empire was split into a few divisions, one for each of his sons. But his sons began fighting each other for more land.
The Mongols facilitated trade by the use of the silk road
The leader of the Mongols is the famous Genghis Khan. They claimed 24,000,000 square kilometers and called it the Mongol Empire.
The Mongols were a nomadic group from Central Asia, known for establishing the vast Mongol Empire in the 13th century under Genghis Khan. They were primarily horsemen and warriors, influencing large parts of Asia and Europe. In contrast, the Moguls (or Mughals) were descendants of the Mongols who established a powerful empire in the Indian subcontinent from the early 16th to the 19th century, renowned for their contributions to art, architecture, and culture. While both share a common ancestry, their historical contexts and impacts are distinct.
By 1280, the Mongols had established one of the largest empires in history, known as the Mongol Empire, which spanned across much of Asia and into Eastern Europe. Under the leadership of Kublai Khan, the empire included China, Mongolia, Korea, and parts of Central Asia. The Mongols implemented a system of governance that allowed for a degree of local autonomy while promoting trade and cultural exchange along the Silk Road. This period marked significant advancements in commerce, communication, and cultural interactions across the vast territories they controlled.
The Mongols significantly shaped today's world through their vast empire, which facilitated trade and cultural exchange along the Silk Road, promoting globalization. Their innovations in communication and military strategies influenced subsequent empires and nations. Additionally, the Mongol Empire's promotion of religious tolerance and cultural pluralism laid groundwork for more interconnected societies. Finally, their legacy can be seen in modern geopolitical boundaries and the spread of ideas and technologies across Eurasia.
The Mongols were a nomadic people who created a vast empire in the 13th century.
Trade and travel increased in the empire because the Mongols constructed extensive highway systems. :)<3
