  • The Mongols were a nomadic people from the steppes of Central Asia, who united under the leadership of Genghis Khan in the early 13th century. Genghis Khan and his successors launched a series of campaigns that expanded their empire to cover most of Asia and parts of Eastern Europe. They were renowned for their military prowess, their ruthless tactics, and their use of gunpowder and siege weapons. They defeated armies that were much larger and more advanced than theirs, and they imposed their rule and tribute on millions of people.
    The Mongols invaded Europe in two waves: the first one in the 1220s, and the second one in the 1240s. The first wave was led by Genghis Khan’s generals, who defeated the Rus’ principalities (the predecessors of Russia and Ukraine) and the Cumans (a Turkic people who lived in the steppes). They also raided Poland and Hungary, but they turned back after the death of Genghis Khan in 1227.
