The USA PATRIOT Act was enacted in 2001 as a reponse to the September 11 attacks and signed by President George Bush. The name of this act is actually an acronym which stands for "Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001"

It has generated controversy since its enactment as, due to the provisions included to increase national security. Its promoters argued it was a necessary measure to suceed on the war against terrorism. On the other hand, its detractors claimed that these provisions went against individual freedoms and basic civic rights.

For example, Tittle II confers increased powers to surveillance agencies and bodies dependent of the federal government. Some of these powers include authorizations for detentions of immigrants of indefinite duration, or to search homes or businesses without the consent or knowledge of its owner or tenant.

Answer:

It extended from East Asia to the Black Sea in Eastern Europe.

Explanation:

The Mongol Empire had its origin in the Mongolian steppe, when Genghis Khan united the nomadic tribes of Mongolia under the same banner.

From there, it spread to China, Central Asia, Persia, The Middle East (where the Mongol army destroyed Baghdad, perhaps the most important city of the world at the time), Russia, and Eastern Europe.

The Mongol Army advance was only stopped as west as Hungary.

In conclusion, we can see that the Mongol Empire stretched from East Asia to the Black Sea.
