Question

What characteristics or attributes allowed the mongols to successfully conquer most of Eurasia within 25 years

Answer 1

The main reason why Mongols so easily and successfully conquered most of Eurasia lies in their discipline and organization.

Explanation:

• the bulk of the army consisted of Mongolian cavalry dominated by archers;
• the siege techniques he developed with Chinese experts and engineers were adopted and refined;
• there was strict discipline in the army - unlike the widespread behavior characteristic of most armies of the time;
• The Mongols had unrivaled and extraordinarily effective intelligence that allowed them to maneuver speed as well as apply psychological warfare through the spread of rumors;
• special couriers called arrows were introduced. Their social standing was higher than that of princes and colonels. They rode the fastest horses and if they got tired they could take the fastest horse to anyone and continue on;
• It is estimated that over 40 million people were killed during their conquests. At that time, when less than one billion people were inhabiting our planet, this number seems almost impossible, and some historians consider that figure to be much higher;
• There are sources who claim that after the Mongol invasion, China's current population declined from 120 million to 60 million. Some theorists go so far as to claim that their bloody pyre has drastically and even positively affected the planetary ecosystem;
