He increased trade dramatically by making the first international postal system. He also spread a lot of great inventions, for example, silk and paper. This is how he is great and how he changed the world.
The first thing I will be talking about is how he was able to conquer a lot of Asia and unite it. He united the Mongols which was a big step because if he has a bigger army he can conquer more easily. He was very good at figuring out the strengths and weaknesses of the enemy to easily beat them. The military had good practice and daily drills to keep them sharp and ready for a battle. This

    He was the strong foundation of the Mongol Empire. With his skill and technique on conquering other territories he served as a role model for other future rulers. Genghis Khans strategy of very barbaric fighting styles and showing no mercy to his opponents gave the Mongols their terrified name throughout China. A strategy he would use consisted of him terrifying and destroying the neighboring villages of the capitols he was attempting to conqueror, then the Mongols who survived the raids went on to put fear into the next city. A reason Genghis Khans army grew to be so superior over others is because he would recruit the scholars, and other educated people from the places he claimed. The Mongol Empire expanded far across China but Genghis Khan only conquered a small portion. It was his grand children who fully expanded the empire. In 1251, Mongke became the Great Khan and his reign was considered the greatest wave of Mongol conquest to sweep the…

    Although, Genghis Khan had many advantages, he was best at using his clever military strategies. For example, before conquering the “Mongols would promise justice to those who surrendered, but would swore destruction to those who resisted” (page 111). This would frighten the empires and most of them would end up surrendering. Another thing Mongols did was “operate a virtual propoganda machine that consistently inflated the number of people killed in battle”, this helped spread fear (page 114).…

    The Mongols created probably the largest, land empire in world history. At its height, the empire spanned from Eastern Europe to China and into the Near East. That was truly an amazing accomplishment given the obscure origins of the Mongols in the twelfth century on a distant plateau, isolated in the heart of Asia. The military advantages enjoyed by the Mongols over any potential adversaries stemmed from their legendary discipline, extraordinary abilities on horseback, ability to organize and coordinate large military units and, finally, their noted ferocity. By the height of Mongol conquests in the mid-thirteenth century, the Mongols were feared by everyone across Europe and Asia. Please feel free to review my lecture notes (rtf file) on the Mongols.
