It was founded by Genghis Khan in the year 1206 and had its peak when it reached 24,000,000 km².

After the death of Genghis in the year 1227, his successors, under the second jan, Ogodei, continued the expansion. This expansion included Persia, ended the Xia and the remains of the corasmios, and led to a conflict with the Song Dynasty of southern China, beginning a war that did not end until the year 1279 in which there was the total occupation of the country and the reunification of the government of China under the Mongols.
