Hi, I’m Yuanmongolempiredynasty! I joined Wikipedia on around November 25, 2024. Instead of having a mentor, I visit the Wikipedia:Teahouse regularly, it is pretty helpful, I suggest it. I will become a mentor for new editors when I reach 5,000 edits. I will continue to make Wikipedia better for their 70 million viewers per day. Bye for now 😀🇲🇳

Why the Mongol Empire was so important
[edit]The Mongol Empire made an important mark in history, introducing new types of military organization, laws, and inventions. These include:
- The Yam, a postal system the Mongols used to communicate faster
- Paper Money, the Mongols were thought to have created paper money like what we use today
- Gunpowder, even though the original recipe of Gunpowder was made by the Song Dynasty, the Mongols improved it more after they took over the Song
- Hamburgers, those delicious meat sandwiches
- Passports, the Chinese and the Mongols were the first to create passports, so you could have access to the Silk Road
- Pants
- Charcoal, what keeps us warm?…Charcoal!
More Mongol Facts
[edit]In 1279, the Mongol Empire was at it’s greatest extent, stretching from South Korea (Goryeo at the time) to the Russian Empire in Europe. In 1294, after Kublai Khan died, the empire split into the Ilkhanate, Chagatai Khanate, Yuan Dynasty, and the Golden Horde. The empire slowly lost it’s power after Kublai Khan’s death, with many short-reigning emperors of the Yuan Dynasty succeeding him. In 1368, Ming forces pushed Toghon Temür, the 11th and final emperor of the Yuan Dynasty, north and the Red Turban Rebellions (later the Ming Dynasty) gained control of China. The Northern Yuan Dynasty was created by Toghon Temür and reigned until 1636, when Ejei Khan was forced to surrender to the Later Jin Dynasty (turned into the Qing Dynasty) and that officially ended the Mongol Ulus. Meanwhile, in Europe, the Blue Horde and White Horde were united into the Great Horde under Tokhtamysh but then fell in 1502 to the Crimean Khanate and other countries. The Chagatai Khanate split into the Turpan Khanate and Yarkent Khanate, the Turpan fell in 1570 after their leader Muhammad died. The Yarkent Khanate fell in 1705. The Ilkhanate easily dissolved in the mid-1300s.
The Rise and Fall of the Mongol Empire
[edit]This “article” is not intended to describe the entire history of the Mongol Empire, there are zero references and therefore is all knowledge. For the full story, see the Mongol Empire or other Mongol articles on Wikipedia.
All of the Mongols lovers obviously know that the Mongol Empire was founded by Genghis Khan, or Temüjin Bahatur. Genghis Khan united the Mongol tribes under his rule in 1206, starting the Mongol Empire. The Merkit and Naiman tribes created a rebellion. But after losing, they escaped into the Qara Khitai and Khwarezmian Empire. The Mongols chased them down, but had to defeat their new allies, the Khwarezmians and the Qara Khitans. The Mongols defeated both and then started to invade China, conquering the Western Xia after Genghis Khan’s death in 1227. Genghis Khan’s son Ögedei succeeded him in 1229, after a brief rule of Tolui Khan. Genghis had given each of his first four sons Jochi, Chagatai Khan, Hulegu, and Ögedei a place to rule:
-Ögedei got the Mongol Ulus
-Jochi got the Golden Horde
-Chagatai got the Chagatai Khanate
-Hülagu got the Ilkhanate
The Jochids were forced out of their land and had to fight the Kipchaks to gain new land, which became the Golden Horde. Ögedei launched the second invasion of Persia, defeated the Jin Dynasty in 1234, and launched an invasion of Korea. Before Genghis died, Jochi had also died, in 1225. The succession of the Golden Horde broke it up into two hordes, the Blue Horde and the White Horde, the Blue Horde was Orda Khan’s, first grandson of Genghis Khan and Batu Khan had the White Horde. Ögedei died in 1241 and his wife Töregene Khatun succeeded him as regent until Güyük Khan was elected in 1246. Güyük died early into his reign and his wife Qabul Qaimish succeeded him as regent until Möngke Khan, probably one of my favorites was elected in 1251. Batu Khan died in 1255, with his son Sartak succeeding him. Sartak died in 1257, and Ulaghchi succeeded him as Khan of the White Horde, but ruled less than a year until Berke Khan succeeded him. Orda died before Batu, when Möngke was elected in 1251. He was succeeded by Qun Quran. I don’t know much about the Chagatai Khanate and that is why only it’s fall will be included. Möngke died in 1259 from debated circumstances. One claims that he was shot well invading the Song Dynasty. A succession war broke out between the brothers Ariq Böke and Kublai Khan. Berke Khan of the Golden Horde supported Ariq Böke and Hulegu supported Kublai. The Mongols practically fought each other over who should win until Ariq Böke was forced to surrender to Kublai and died in captivity, possibly poison. Kublai Khan had a long rule, lasting from 1265-1294. He launched two invasions of Japan and defeated the Song Dynasty in 1279 with the Battle of Yamen. Hulegu, however, one of Kublai’s supporters in the Toluid Civil War, died a year after Kublai was elected, in 1265. Hulegu was succeeded by his son Abaqa Khan. Berke Khan died a year later in 1266 and was succeeded by Mengu-Timur. Kublai Khan gained control of all of China and turned Genghis Khan’s Mongol Ulus into the Yuan Dynasty. Many of Kublai’s citizens accused him of leaning too much into Han-Chinese culture instead of the Mongol’s custom. Qun Qaran, Orda’s successor died in 1280 and was succeeded by Köchü . Kublai died in 1294 and was succeeded by Temür Khan or Emperor Chengzong of Yuan. After Kublai died, each of the uluses of Jochi, Hulegu, Ögedei, and Chagatai split into four different countries, dividing the empire. Before, at the time of Qun Qaran’s death in 1280, Mengu-Timur died, who was succeeded by Tode Möngke as Khan of the Blue Horde. Tode Möngke was executed in 1287 and Talabuga Khan succeeded him. Only four years into Talabuga’s reign, he died. After his death in 1291, Talabuga was succeeded by Toqta. Also before that in 1282, Abaqa Khan of the Ilkhanate died and was succeeded by Hulegu’s son Ahmed Tekuder. However Ahmed died early in his reign, in 1284, and Arghun succeeded him. But Arghun died in 1291 and Gaykhatu succeeded him. But again Gayhatu had a very short reign. Gaykhatu died in 1295 and was succeeded by Baydu but Baydu died less than a year into his reign and Ghazan succeeded him. Köchü of the White Horde died in 1302, Köchü was succeeded by Bayan Khan. Now we could go on and on of the short-reigning khans of the Ilkhanate and Golden Horde. But I’m just going to skip ahead to the long reigning Öz Beg Khan. He ruled over the Blue Horde after Toqta, from 1313-1341. Ever since Hulegu had tried to crush revenue for Berke’s Horde and the White Horde, the Ilkhanids and the Horde hated each other. Öz Beg allied with Mamluk Egypt against the Ilkhanate. And Öz Beg lead many campaigns against Ilkhan Abu Sa'id, who died of the Black Death in 1335. Abu was succeeded by a series of short-reigning khans until the Ilkhanate fell in around 1338. After the Ilkhanate’s fall was the fall of the Yuan Dynasty in the east. Toghon Temür was barely able to hold off the growing Ming forces and was forced to evacuate to the north, creating the Northern Yuan Dynasty and ending the Yuan Dynasty in 1368. The Ming Dynasty took control of China and the Northern Yuan took the northern lands of the Yuan, still slightly occupying Mongolia. The Golden Horde was now ruled by the begs, the first of which was Tini Beg. Tini Beg was killed by his successor one year into his reign. In 1342, he was succeeded by Jani Beg. Jani ruled for 15 years before he died in 1357. In 1363, the Timurid Empire conquered the western half of the Chagatai Khanate. The remaining portion turned into Moghulistan. The Ilkhanate had been destroyed, the Golden Horde was ruled by begs, the Chagatayids lost their western half, and the Northern Yuan had lost control of China. By now, Genghis Khan’s large empire was shrinking. But, these countries were able to survive 300 or even 400 years more. Toghon Temür died in 1368, and after two years of debate, Emperor Zhaozong of the Northern Yuan, better known as Biligtü Khan Ayushiridara was elected emperor. Urus Khan, the leader of the White Horde (which wasn’t ruled by begs), succeeded Chimtay of the White Horde in 1369. The Blue Horde’s leader Abdallāh (a beg) ended the series of short-reigning begs in the Blue Horde. Abdallāh ruled for nine years but with no exact successor, there was no one to succeed him in 1370. So Tulun Beg Khanum became the only female to rule the Golden Horde until Muhammad-Sultān succeeded her one year later in 1371. The Northern Yuan Dynasty was still ruled by Biligtü and still not able to take back China. Urus Khan unofficially claimed that he was the ruler of both hordes, but the official leader was still Muhammad-Sultān. Urus died in 1377 and Toqtaqiya succeeded him but died less than a year into his reign. Temur-Malik succeeded him but possibly died (unknown) soon afterwards. Toktamysh succeeded him and then united the Hordes after Tūlāk, the ruler of the Blue Horde died in 1380, officially uniting Orda and Batu’s hordes and reforming the Golden Horde (Toktamysh called it the Great Horde). Toktamysh ruled over the Horde for fifteen years until he gave up the throne to Quruchuq, took a five year break not ruling anything, and then became Khan of the Tatar Siberian Khanate for six years until he died at the age of 64 in 1406. Before Toktamysh’s death, in 1397, Toktamysh’s chosen successor of the Golden Horde died and was succeeded by
Tīmūr Qutluq. But Tımür only ruled two years before he too died in 1399. Another beg named Shādī Beg succeeded Tımür and had an eight-year long reign until he died in 1407. Meanwhile, in the Northern Yuan Dynasty, Örüg Temür Khan, the emperor, still tried to defeat the Ming Dynasty, but the Ming were too powerful. The Northern Yuan had changed their capital from Yingchang to again Karakorum in 1371 and Karakorum stayed their capital for a while. Shādī Beg’s successor, Pülād, ruled until 1410 and then Tīmūr succeeded him. For the entire story, which not even I can tell, please see the Mongol Empire or the many other articles Wikipedia has.
