1. having an advanced or humane culture, society, etc.
2. easy to manage or control; well organized or ordered.

If people surrendered or were subdued without resistance the mongols exacted tribute, such as taxes or men for war, but generally left the inhabitants alone because their had more joy to spread. (Chapter 14-15 in world history textbook in the library.) To sum it up the mongols were generally peaceful and prosperous but just like any conquest they had to killed a few to get there such as the roman rule or the Han Dynasty
Their economic system was highly specialized and their customs called for religious tolerance, hospitality,their trade policies balanced technological innovation, and limited alcohol use. The Mongols used highly sophisticated economic system, backed by laws that promoted safety and security, allowed the people of their empire not only to survive but to thrive and prosper. after their fall the gave to society yams and the silk road opened to everybody to use.

How Barbaric were the Barbarians? The Mongols were a barbaric peoples that reigned with cruelty. They displayed their barbaric tendencies showed through in their invasion and destruction of Nishapur, Persia, their methods of execution, and their rules. Throughout all these events and topics, the Mongols show an extreme level of cruelty, shown by no other before them.
The Mongols did not trust the Chinese, so they had foreigners come in to govern the people. They took away the traditional Confucian way of government. In the Middle East, the Mongols took the highest positions, but gave the lower positions to the people showing that there was more trust. The Mongols didn 't disrupt the original government, instead they used it to their advantage. Mongols
They did many tragic acts that transfer over to today's world. This essay will explain why the Mongols still have a bad effect on the world today with things like disease and other things like wars and terrorism. The Mongols have more bad effects than good effects on today's day. The Mongols have a bad impact on today's world because of the influence they have had on terrorism.
They established a revolutionary civilization wide system of legal rights and freedoms of religion. the newly interconnected globe that spread commerce and goods also spread disease such as the black death. The Mongol Empire had a uniform code of laws, ridding the steppes of theft, kidnapping and petty battles, establishing religious toleration and meritocracy. He united the Mongols under a core ethnic identity.
The Mongols The Mongols may have been barbaric in their methods of conquering territory, but they had a very civilized empire. They were extremely organized, and were able to gain access to trade with more empires and territories, in order to improve their economy. The Mongols were able to provide support for their empire, and managed to keep it stable for many years. The Mongol Empire was expansive, and required a very stable government.
The Mongol Empire is what links Europe and Asia during frequent, extended, and brutal conflicts between the East and the West. I took a 10-day trip through the Mongol Empire and the Silk Road. Starting from Rome and ending in Malacca, I learned quite a bit. The whole empire is rich with culture and history.
This displays the Mongol characteristic of adaptation and acceptance towards new cultures and ideas, implementing diversity. When the Mongols conquered most of Asia, including China and Persia, they also gained control of the continental caravan routes, which were essential to their lucrative commerce(Document J). It is a misconception that the Mongols, a successful empire that excelled in it varied commerce and trade, was barbaric due to the mature level of tolerance required for peaceful public
Obvious negative effects of the invasions were immediately evident such as death counts and destroyed property. But slowly peace was restored as the Mongol rule spread to much of the known world. Needed changes began occurring such as the Silk Road was reopened by the Mongols. The Mongols introduced gunpowder and the importance of written language. They contributed considerable to the commerce of both China and the Middle East as they once again began trading and exporting their goods and
Mongols were a people that were sometimes brutal but overall there people were good at heart. The Mongols were not always the most civilized of people. They sometimes took the fat of people they killed and lit it on fire then they threw the fat on the houses (Doc. 3).That was pretty brutal but on a side note the empire of Genghis Khan was more than double the size of Alexander the Greats land.
This increased trade and helped to grow the economy. By establishing the Silk Road, the Mongols had many positive effects on the world.
The Mongols were terrible people that lead a large vast land for too long of a time. The Mongols was a tribe that was barbaric and did terribles things. The Mongols were brutal and harsh because they killing th own people if they fled, having as many wives as they want by killing the wife husband, burying people alive, and killing people they didn’t need if the other tribe or group surrender.
The Mongols exploited everyone, even women and children, for their own advantage, often using forced labor. Those who resisted Khan’s reign were often enslaved, imprisoned, or killed. (I think that being killed for resisting was a little too much.) Many people were killed during the era of the Mongols.
Secondly, the Mongols did not only kill those who fought in the wars, but they also ruins land that was filled with innocent men, women, children and animals. In a primary source written by a Persian historian Juvaini, in the thirteenth century describes the Mongols as being destructive and "... With one stroke a world that flowed with fertility was laid desolate...with the majority of the living now dead, their skin and bones now crumbling in dust"(Doc. 2). The Mongols would not only destroy the soldiers I the war, but they would kill their innocent families and the whole area would be destroyed for no logical purpose. Ata-Malik Juvaini the author of this article in the Book, The History of the World Conqueror stated that "they served the heads of the slain from their bodies and heaped them into piles, keeping men separated from the children" (Doc. 4).
To conclude my essay, I hope you understand more about Genghis Khan. I also hope you understand my argument on why he made negative impacts on the world. He killed, raped and stole from millions of people, no person 's life should be put in danger because of one 's power over you or belief.
