Question

Read the map. A map titled Mongol Empire, 1279 C E. Most of modern day Mongolia, parts of Russia, all of China, Tibet, the Korean Peninsula, most of Asia, and into Europe are shaded. Which statement best describes the reach of Genghis Khan's Mongol Empire at its peak? It included all of Asia, as well as all of Europe. It covered all of West, Central, and Southeast Asia. It extended from East Asia to the Black Sea in Eastern Europe. It stretched from the Pacific Ocean to west of the Mediterranean Sea.

Answer 1

It extended from East Asia to the Black Sea in Eastern Europe.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Mongol Empire had its origin in the Mongolian steppe, when Genghis Khan united the nomadic tribes of Mongolia under the same banner.

From there, it spread to China, Central Asia, Persia, The Middle East (where the Mongol army destroyed Baghdad, perhaps the most important city of the world at the time), Russia, and Eastern Europe.

The Mongol Army advance was only stopped as west as Hungary.

In conclusion, we can see that the Mongol Empire stretched from East Asia to the Black Sea.
