The turks and the mongols had similar views on religion and economic influence, but their artistic impact sets them apart. Despite this, they both had a significant impact on their respective societies beginning in the late 13th century. Both of these empires allowed for great amounts of religious tolerance, especially for their time period. Although the mongols practiced shamanism, an animistic religion that primarily focused on powerful spirits, they were extremely tolerant of all religions.…
Mongolians of the Asian Steppe had a positive impact on the world during their rule of the Asian continent from 1206 to 1368 by influencing the unification of China, many laws, and the Silk Road. The benefits of the Mongol rule influenced more than just Asia, but the entire world. China had not been unified for over 300 years (section 12.3 in the textbook) until the Mongols founded…
Out of the many great leaders/warriors to have been born, one man made a mark on the world that would forever change history. The man named Temujin better known to the world as Genghis Khan, would become Mongolia’s greatest leader and ancestor. Genghis Khan was the son of a warrior tribe chief named Yesukhei. Most of the western world has seen Genghis Khan as a barbarian that slaughtered, plundered, and destroyed many cultures. But for the Mongols, they saw him as a national hero that united…
The Mongolian Empire was able to rise out of the small nomadic groups of the Steppe region. Through military conquest and alliances, their land stretched across a large swath of the Asian continent. While the Empire is commonly referred to as one of great “barbarity” the greater strength was within many of the practices that allowed for the rule of such a large expanse of land. The Mongolian Empire was able to both gain, and oversee, their territory due to their willingness to negotiate with…
From 205 BC to 220 AD China was ruled by the Han dynasty. The Han dynasty was a time of great innovation with both positive and negative impacts. Innovations like the development and popularization of the silk road had several positive impacts on China. However, these innovations would eventually cause the fall of the Han dynasty. The Civil Service Exam is one of these innovations. The Silk Road was one of the most revolutionary innovations in all of Chinese history. The Silk Road…
dramatically. Items from India, China, and Iran passed easily across the Asian steppes, and these contacts culturally enriched Iran. For example, Iranians developed a new style of painting based on a unique fusion of solid, two-dimensional Mesopotamian painting with the feathery, light brush strokes and other motifs characteristic of China. After Ghazan's nephew, Abu Said, died in 1335, Iran again lapsed into petty dynasties the Salghurid, Muzaffarid, Inju, and Jalayirid, under Mongol…

Have you ever wanted to know how the Mongols treated others? Well I have. They organized their army in groups, left marks of what they did, and they took the men and the women to help them against others. The Mongols are sometimes peaceable but they are primarily brutal. The Mongols organized the army by groups. They had groups of ten on top of ten. If groups ran off they would get killed. They even killed people that did not run off if some of the group did. Document 2 say “ army should be…
