The Mongol Empire

Nomads of the Asian Steppe Geography of the Steppe Steppe—dry grassland of Eurasia—provides home for nomads. Two main expanses: Central Asia to eastern Europe, and Mongolia. Steppe has little rain, dramatic seasonal temperature differences.

The Nomadic Way of Life Steppe nomads are pastoralists—herd domesticated animals. Way of life teaches Asian nomads to be skilled horse riders. Nomads travel in clans—kin groups are linked by a common ancestor.

Rise of the Mongols Genghis Khan Unites the Mongols About 1200, Genghis Khan—”universal ruler”—unites Mongols. In early 1200s, he begins a campaign of conquest. By 1225, Genghis Khan controls central Asia.

Genghis the Conqueror A brilliant organizer and strategist. Uses brutality to terrorize his enemies and force surrenders. Died in 1227

Kublai Khan Becomes Emperor A New Emperor Kublai Khan, grandson of Genghis, becomes great khan in 1260. Kublai conquers China by 1279.

Beginning a New Dynasty Kublai established the Yuan Dynasty (1279-1368), a period of peace and prosperity. Kublai adopts Chinese ways, and builds capital at Beijing.

Failure to Conquer Japan In 1274 and 1281, Kublai tries but fails to conquer Japan. The Massive second invasion was destroyed by a typhoon.

Mongol Rule in China The Mongols and the Chinese Mongols live separately from Chinese and follow own laws. Mongols keep top government posts, and put Chinese in local positions. Kublai extends Grand Canal to Beijing, and builds a highway.

Foreign Trade Trade increases under Kublai, sending Chinese products to other lands. Kublai invites merchants from other lands to China.

Marco Polo at the Mongol Court Venetian trader, Marco Polo, visits China in 1275. Polo returns to Venice in 1292; tells stories of what he saw in China. Fabulous cities, fantastic wealth Burning “black stones (coal) to heat Chinese homes Kublai Khan’s government and trade in Beijing These stories were gathered in a book, but most readers doubt its truth.

The End of Mongol Rule Declining Power Yuan Dynasty Overthrown Failed expeditions to Southeast Asia show weakness of Yuan Dynasty. High taxes cause resentment. Yuan Dynasty Overthrown Kublai dies in 1294; successors are weak. In 1300s, rebellions break out, leading to formation of Ming Dynasty.

Decline of the Mongol Empire Mongol rule collapses in Persia in the 1330s; in Central Asia in the 1370s. By the end of the 1300s, only Mongol rule in Russia remains, the Golden Horde.
