The mongol empire

The Khanates, or his sons continued Khans conquest and droe south, east and west out of inner asia. They leveled a Russian city and reached the banks of adriatic sea.
Ghengis Khan, the mongol leader, died in 1227 from illness not violence.
By the 1250s the mongols stopped there westward campaign and focused on Persia. By 1260 the mongols had split their empire in to 4 regions.
The cities that the mongols conquered and destroyed never recovered. Reason being that they destroyed their irrigation systems. While the mongols were harsh they let the people they conquered keep their beliefs.
From the 1200s to the 1300s, the mongols imposed stability and law across Eurasia. This was called Tax Mongolica.
Trade between Europe and Asia had never been more active. Ideas, inventions, and chinese innovations traveled along highly. Also the mongols were the people that helped spread the black plaque.

The Fall of the Mongols
During the last years of Kublai Khan’s reign, weaknesses began to appear in Mongol rule.
Kublai sent several expeditions into Southeast Asia, his armies suffered many defeats
Heavy spending on wars, on public works, and on the luxuries of the Yuan court burdened the treasury and created resentment among the overtaxed Chinese.
Kublai Khan died in 1294. After his death, the Yuan Dynasty began to fade.The Chinese had long resented their Mongol rulers, and the Mongol humiliation of the Chinese only increased.
In 1368, Chinese rebels finally overthrew the Mongols. The rise and fall of Mongol rule affected civilizations from eastern Europe to China. Kublai Khan had tried to extend this influence to Japan but had failed.
