10. Perceptions
Positive
• Political environment
• Tolerant of religions
• After Mongol conquest, 100 years of peace
• Mongols policed the roads and made travel safe & Silk Road trade increased
• Harsh punishments for criminals helped to deter crime
• Unified parts of China, India, Central Asia, Muslim Middle East, &
Russia- transmitting all acquired cultures and technologies
11. Negative
Universally condemned as a destructive and genocidal warlord
In much of Russia, Middle East, Korea, China, Ukraine,
Poland and Hungary, Genghis Khan and his regime are
credited with considerable damage, destruction and
loss of population
12. Used bows, arrows, and
swords but also canons –
a new technology
Skilled attacking on
horseback
Often faked a retreat to
lure enemies into a trap
War strategy and tactics
13. Empire divided into khanates
New leaders not as strong as Genghis or Kublai
Khan
Resentment against Mongol rule
grows in Russia and
China
Empire becomes
too big and diverse to
manage
What happened then?
