The Mongol Empire (Mongolian: Mongolyn Ezent Güren listen (help·info); Mongolian Cyrillic: Монголын эзэнт гүрэн; Mongolian pronunciation: [mɔŋɡ(ɔ)ɮˈiːŋ ɛt͡sˈɛnt ˈɡurəŋ]; also Орда ("the Horde") in Russian chronicles) existed during the 13th and 14th centuries and was the largest contiguous land empire in history.[2] Originating in the steppes of Central Asia, the Mongol Empire eventually stretched from Eastern Europe and parts of Central Europe to the Sea of Japan, extending northwards into Siberia, eastwards and southwards into the Indian subcontinent, Indochina and the Iranian Plateau; and westwards as far as the Levant and the Carpathian Mountains.

Answer 2

The Mongol invasions changed the life of every culture they conquered uniquely. Because their rule wasn't the same in all of them. Also, these impacts were always different from the rest because of the different approaches they took on each culture and territory.

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, Mongol invasions affected every culture they fought differently. Because in the first place some were conquered, and some resisted, also because the ones that were conquered by them weren't managed in the same way. For example, Russian princes ruled their people and they were only charged a certain tribute. Therefore the major impact they had was on economic areas. Turkey conquered territory was different, because the Mongols found the people of the likeness and moved to approach them, so their impact was on society, culture, and ways. On the other hand, Chinese society didn't change because the Mongols adopted their culture and followed it to unite China. They are different because of the subjective and unique conditions they decided to follow for each culture.
