Mongol Empire
The Mongol Empire was a vast empire that stretched across Eurasia that existed in the 12th and 13th centuries. He is the second largest empire ever, and the largest continuous empire. His conquests are very ruthless and brutal, but after the conquest, his rule will become more benevolent.
History
The Mongol Empire was founded by famous Genghis Khan in 1206. First, Mongol attacked Western Xia in 1209, and defeated Xia in 1210. Western Xia swore allegiance to the Mongols, and helped them conquer the Jurchens, who refused to help Western Xia when he was being invaded. But this invasion was costly and not popular within the peoples of Xia, they refused to send anything to the Mongols for their other expeditions, and a general even mocked the Mongols. Genghis Khan was furious, and when he returned from his expeditions in 1225 he sent out to destroy Western Xia. But he fell off a horse and sustained serious injuries. Mongol wanted to retreat, but if they did it would look like they were scared of the little Xia. So, Mongol sent out an envoy to Western Xia to see if they were apologetic (if they were, Mongol can retreat without losing face). The emperor of Xia said he didn’t mock the Mongols, but the general stepped up and told Mongol that it was him who mocked, and challenged them to a battle. So, in 1227, Genghis Khan ordered a mass extermination of the Tangut people and the total destruction of their culture.
