Pax Mongolica is a historiographic term that describes the stabilizing effects of the Mongol conquests that have widely influenced the social, economic and cultural life of the Eurasian territory conquered by the Mongols in the 13th and 14th centuries. The conquest of Jings Khan effectively linked the western and eastern worlds. The end of Pax Mongolia was marked by the disintegration of the ropes and the outbreak of the Black Death in Asia, which expanded trade routes to much of the world in the mid-14th century.
