Answer: Pax Mongolica effect on Asia and Europe

Pax Mongolica (Mongol Peace), was a period of time created by the Mongols which at least for a time facilitated commerce and communication. During this time, Pax Mongolica helped to spread different ideas and a great cultural expansion around Europe and Asia. They also created networks of trade routes all around Asia and Europe. The foundations of the Pax Mongolica lie in the Mongol Empire beginning with Genghis Khan in the early 13th century. During this time, Pax Mongolica helped to spread different ideas and a great cultural expansion around Europe and Asia. They also created networks of trade routes all around Asia and Europe. At the peak of their power the Mongols controlled what is now present day Hungary all the way to China. Due to the enormous territory the Mongols occupied and the importance of trade they had to protect their trade routes by making them safe for all regions, they occupied.

Pax Romana effect on Asia and Europe

Pax Romana, (Latin: “Roman Peace”) a state of comparative tranquility throughout the Mediterranean world from the reign of Augustus (27 BCE–14 CE) to the reign of Marcus Aurelius (161 –180 CE). Augustus laid the foundation for this period of concord, which also extended to North Africa and Persia. The empire protected and governed individual provinces, permitting each to make and administer its own laws while accepting Roman taxation and military control. It is traditionally dated as commencing from the accession of Augustus, founder of the Roman principiate, in 27 BC and concluding in 180 AD with the death of Marcus Aurelius, the last of the "Five Good Emperors". Since it was inaugurated by Augustus at the end of the final war of the Roman Republic, it is sometimes also called the Pax Augusta. During this period of about two centuries, the Roman Empire achieved its greatest territorial extent and its population reached a maximum of up to 70 million people. According to Cassius Dio, the dictatorial reign of Commodus, later followed by the Year of the Five Emperors and the Crisis of the Third Century, marked the descent "from a kingdom of gold to one of iron and rust"
