Rise of Temujin:
Temujin, later known as Genghis Khan, was born into a Mongol clan.
After years of hardship, he united the Mongol tribes through diplomacy,
strategic alliances, and military victories. In 1206, he was declared
"Genghis Khan," meaning "Universal Ruler."Military Innovations and Organization:
The Mongols developed superior military tactics,
including the use of highly skilled cavalry, feigned retreats
and psychological warfare. Genghis Khan created
a strict military hierarchy based on merit, not noble birth.Conquest of the Jin Dynasty:
The Mongols launched a brutal campaign against northern China’s Jin Dynasty,
using siege warfare and advanced engineering to break through city walls.
They incorporated Chinese engineers into their army to improve their siege tactics.Invasion of the Khwarazmian Empire:
After a Khwarazmian governor executed Mongol envoys,
Genghis Khan retaliated by launching a devastating campaign.
The Mongols used speed, deception, and ruthlessness to
annihilate cities like Samarkand and Bukhara.Expansion into Europe:
Under Genghis Khan’s successors, the Mongols invaded Russia,
Poland, and Hungary. They used their classic hit-and-run tactics
and siege weaponry to defeat larger European armies, spreading fear throughout the continent.The Height of the Mongol Empire:
The Mongols sacked Baghdad in 1258, marking the end of the Islamic Golden Age.
By 1279, they conquered China under Kublai Khan, establishing the Yuan Dynasty.
The Mongol Empire reached its greatest territorial extent, spanning from Korea to Eastern Europe.The Pax Mongolica and Cultural Exchange:
The Mongols established a period of stability known as Pax Mongolica,
facilitating trade and cultural exchange along the Silk Road.
