Mongol influence
The Mongol influence refers to the significant impact the Mongol Empire had on the world during the 13th and 14th centuries. Under Genghis Khan, the empire expanded across Asia and into Europe, fostering trade along the Silk Road. This led to cultural exchanges, the spread of inventions like the compass and gunpowder, and the integration of various societies. Despite their reputation for brutality, the Mongols promoted communication, established a postal system, and encouraged religious tolerance, which helped shape modern borders, cultures, and trade networks across continents. Their legacy continues to affect global history today.
