Mongolian Empire

  The Mongolian is the most notorious empire...next to the British, but originally they were the biggest empire in the history of the world. It was feared and for a good reason, They could have been even larger if their attempt to push into Gaza, Egypt was successful. The Mongolian empire is the most interesting to me, the were skilled with horseback riding and using bows while riding them, they were the only nation able to do that.
  The were the fastest growing empire in the history of the world, it had nearly tripled in size in less than 10 years and was growing even more. Mongolia had spread to China and South Korea. And even pushed into Europe, having lands in modern day Ukraine and every European nation was attempting to stop them. The empire expanded even more into the Middle East and at this point it was beginning to stagnate, it tried to expand into Japan and their army died from a monsoon...twice. and it couldn't grow anymore. It tried to expand into Indonesia and still failed. Soon the Empire split up into the Golden Horde, Yuan Dynasty, and Timurid Empire. The Yuan Dynasty was the last remaining fragment of the Mongolian Empire and fell later on, thus ending Mongolian reign over China.
