THE MONGOL HORDE. The Mongol Empire which existed during the 13th and 14th centuries, was the largest ' contiguous land empire in history. Originating in the steppes of Central Asia, the Mongol Empire eventually stretched from Central Europe to the Sea of Japan, extending northwards into Siberia, eastwards and southwards into the Indian subcontinent, Indochina and the Iranian plateau and Arabia. The empire unified nomadic tribes of historical Mongolia under the leadership of Genghis khan, who was proclaimed ruler of all Mongols in 1206. The empire grew rapidly under his a rule and then under his descendants. CAMELS The vast transcontinental empire connected the east with the west with an enforced Pax CRU Mongolica allowing trade, technologies, commodities, and ideologies to be disseminated and Ce ee ‘exchanged across Eurasia.

Though the Mongols launched many more invasions into the Levant, briefly occupying it and raiding as far as Gaza after a decisive victory at the Battle of Wadi al-khazandar in 1299,” they withdrew due to various geopolitical factors. By the time of Kublai’s death in 1294, the Mongol Empire had fractured into four separate khanates or empires, each pursuing its own separate interests and objectives: the Golden Horde khanate in the northwest; the Chagatai Khanate in the west; the llkhanate in the southwest; and the Yuan Dynasty based in modern-day Beijing 4 In 1304, the three western khanates briefly accepted the nominal suzerainty of the Yuan Dynasty, but it was later overthrown by the Han Chinese Ming Dynasty in 1368. The Mongols returned to Mongolia and continued to rule under the Mongol Khaganate. aslae 2 ARMY COMPOSITION JUNGHAR KHOL BARAUNGHAR MINGGHAN Mee MINGGHAN (4-10 ZUUN) a ) (4-10 ZUUN) MINGGHAN MINGGHAN MINGGHAN (4-10 ZUUN) (4-10 ZUUN) (4-10 ZUUN) MINGGHAN MINGGHAN MINGGHAN (4-10 ZUUN) (4-10 ZUUN) (4-10 ZUUN) DIVISIONS You must recruit a Khol division, led by the army commander and one or two flank divisions led bya battle leader.
