In "The Mongols" author J.M. Roberts argued that the Mongols learned the use of paper money from the Chinese. The Mongols then introduced the idea to the Persians. From there the practice spread to Europe and continues to this day. Correct! True

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

This statement accurately describes the information presented in "The Mongols" by J. M. Roberts. Paper money was first developed in China during the Song dynasty in the 1100s. During the Mongol Yuan Dynasty, the Mongols adopted this practice and issued their own money. They also implemented this system in Persia. The Mongols introduced the practice to Marco Polo (who visited Kublai Khan's court), thus introducing it to Europe.
