The correct answer is d. land across Eurasia from northeastern Europe to the pacific ocean.

The Mongol Empire under the leadership Genghis Khan, his son, grandson and his armies existed during the 13th and 14th centuries and was the largest empire of the contiguous land in human history.

Beginning in the Central Asian steppes, it was eventually stretched from Eastern Europe to the Sea of Japan, covering much of Siberia in the north and south, extending southwest Asia, the Indian subcontinent, the Iranian plateau, and the Middle East.

It stretched 9,700 km (6,000 miles), covering an area of 24 million km 2 (9,300,000 sq mi), an oscillation of 16% of the total land area of the planet, dominating a population of more than 100 million.
