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.

Steppe Nomads and Settled Societies Nomads and people living in settled communities often interact. Some interactions are peaceful, as in trade. Sometimes nomads raid towns and cities to seize wealth and goods. Strong state or empire could protect its lands from these invasions.

The 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.

The Mongol Empire Death and Succession Genghis Khan dies in 1227. Successors continue conquests for 50 years. The Mongols conquer territory from China to Poland.

The Khanates In east, Mongols conquer northern China and invade Korea. In west, Mongols take Kiev and threaten Vienna and Venice. In 1250s, Mongols turn their attention to Persia. By 1260, Mongol Empire split into khanates of four regions.

Khanate of the Great Khan (Mongolia & China) Khanate of the Golden Horde (Russia) Chagatai Khanate (Central Asia) Ilkhanate (Persia)

The Mongols as Rulers The Mongol Peace Mongol rulers are tolerant of other peoples and cultures. Some Mongols adopt local ways, leading to a split among khanates. The Mongol Peace Peaceful period from mid-1200s to mid-1300s is called Pax Mongolica. There was much east-west trade and exchange of ideas during this period.
