Answer:

The Mongols destroyed old Eurasian superpowers

As Mongol hordes conquered territory across Eurasia, they swept away many old ruling powers.

Significant political changes included:

  • The conquering of non-Mongol Central Asian pastoral peoples.
  • The destruction of the Seljuk Empire and Abbasid Caliphate in the Middle East
