Answer:

  • The stereotype of Mongols as barbaric plunderers comes from Chinese, Persian, and Russian sources.

Step-by-step explanation:

Most Westerners acknowledge the generalization of the thirteenth century Mongols as barbaric plunderers, whose goal was to disfigure, butcher, and demolish. This observation, in light of Persian, Chinese, Russian, and different records of the speed and mercilessness with which the Mongols cut out the biggest adjoining land domain in world history, has formed both Asian and Western reputation of the Mongols.

The correct answer is Chinese, Persian, and Russian sources

Chinese, Persian, and Russian sources are the ones who wrote about this since they are the ones that were conquered by the Mongols.
