The destruction of Khwarazmia and the Abbasid Caliphate caused historians to view the Mongols as a negative impact on Islam because they essentially crippled Islamic world-empires. Before the Khwarazmian Empire was conquered, it was the main Islamic power bordering Mongolian controlled lands. It was established in 1205 within present-day Iran, Afghanistan, and Central Asia. The Empire was founded from conquered Abbasid and Seljuq territories, and ruled by Ala ad-Din Tekish. He was succeeded by his son Ala ad-Din Muhammad, the Khwarazmian ruler during the Mongolian invasion.…

The Mongols started out as simple nomads grazing the pastures. They lived in steppes and had to learn to survive the harsh temperatures there. The different tribes often got into disputes over land for their animals and fought very often. This made the Mongols tough mentally and physically.…
Although Mongolian rule fell long ago, its influence can still be seen today. In Russia and China, the Mongol era brought a change in political power. The Khans, or “Great Leaders”, ruled both places, although not equally. China was directly ruled by the Mongols, seeing that China hosted them in the Yuan province, while Russia was given a sense of self rule. The Mongols still claimed taxes and sought goods from Russia, but did not actually occupy it as they did in China. The lack of occupancy in Russia eventually led to the downfall of the Mongol rule there seeing that there was no opposing force to govern them, thus putting power back to the Russians, and creating what we know Russia as today.…

In 632, the death of Muhammad would begin the time when Muslim armies would conquer lands throughout the Middle East, North Africa, and Spain to establish Islamic ruled empires called caliphates that would last until 1258.

Though the Mongols were very crude and unsophisticated people at war or while they were conquering other lands, in their own towns they had their own law and own little makeshift civilization set up. They all followed a religion under what the Khan of the time period decided the dominant religion would be, and all believed in the one or multiple gods that religion told them to believe in. (document nine) This was very hypocritical of them though, since they were constantly changing the dominant religion of the empire, causing and forcing people to not only believe in one god, but in all of the gods that they decided to worship from time to time. They also had a very severe set of laws against stealing (document seven) and being a thief, but when it came down to conquering other lands, and going into somewhere that wasn’t there they had no issues whatsoever in stealing another man’s land, or another man’s life. They would parade into someone else’s home, with a set plan of conquering a land and how they were going to do it, and it seemed as if they always wanted to take the most brutal of routes. In war, the Mongols didn’t have one constant army on their front lines, they worked their armies in shifts, so that no one man was out for so long that he could get seriously fatigued and weak. Once battle began, they would send a little body of captives out, to face the opposing…
