  6. The last nomadic empire in Eurasia

  7. The last nomadic empire in Eurasia The Mongol Empire, the final attempt by Asian nomadic peoples to control major land areas, lasted for almost 150 years and stretched ultimately from China to eastern Europe. The Mongols established peace, maintained a tolerant government over its territories, and fostered a Eurasian-wide system of trade and cultural exchange.

  8. The last nomadic empire in Eurasia • The Mongol Empire began to collapse after rebellions in China. • In the 1360s, Timur-i Lang attempted to reestablish the Mongol Empire, but instead his forces laid waste to large areas of the Middle East, India, and southern Russia. • Timur-i Lang: Last major nomad leader; 14th-century Turkic ruler of Samarkand; launched attacks in Persia, Fertile Crescent, India, southern Russia; empire disintegrated after his death in 1405. • One unforeseen result of the Mongol Empire was the rise to power of Moscow in Russia.

  9. Evaluate how the Mongol conquests can be said to have brought an end to the postclassical civilizations in eastern Europe, western Europe, and Islam.

  10. Mongol conquests end the postclassical civilizations in eastern Europe, western Europe, and Islam. • In eastern Europe, the conquests marked the end of Kievan dominance. • The political balance shifted to Moscow as it took up chief resistance to Mongol rule. • The religious center also moved to Moscow. • The moves marked the beginning of Russian political centralization.

  11. Mongol conquests end the postclassical civilizations in eastern Europe, western Europe, and Islam. For Byzantium, the Mongol conquests meant the opening of Ottoman dominance in Asia Minor and the eventual loss of Constantinople. The Mongol influence in western Europe had a limited direct effect as the conquest was quickly halted. An important indirect effect was facilitating transmission of the Black Death to western Europe.

  12. Mongol conquests end the postclassical civilizations in eastern Europe, western Europe, and Islam. • The conquests marked the end of the western European postclassical period: • the opening of trade with the East marked the beginning of the aggressive Western commerce typical of the early modem period. • For Islam, the conquests ended Abbasid and other minor dynastic rule. • They opened the path for the political division of the Islamic heartland between the Ottomans and Mamluks. • Mamluks: Muslim slave warriors; established dynasty in Egypt; led by Baibars; defeated Mongols at AinJalut in 1260.

  13. Appraise the proposition that the Mongol era was an extension of the incursions of nomadic peoples into the affairs of sedentary civilizations. In what sense was it a civilization in its own right?

  14. In what sense was it a civilization in its own right? • Mongol khanates remained dependent on tribal organization and herding. • Khanates: Four regional Mongol kingdoms that arose following the death of Chinggis Khan. • They attempted to maintain their separateness as a people with nomadic cultural patterns. • Even in China under the Yuan dynasty, strict efforts were made to uphold cultural differences.

  15. In what sense was it a civilization in its own right? • Their control of trade was typical of nomadic incursions; so was the limited period of Yuan rule and use of cities. • Chinggis Khan established a uniquely Mongol administration for an empire based on such Islamic and Chinese precedents as: • a universal legal code • adoption of a Mongol script • maintenance of empire-wide peace • promotion of commerce and travel

  16. Independent/Group Study Time End of Day 1 Conflict Analysis: Mongol conquering and occupation of Russia Change Analysis: Effect of Mongols on Islamic cultures Societal Comparison: Mongols versus any society they conquered Document Analysis: European assessment of the virtues and vices of the Mongols Inner/Outer Circle: Why were the Mongols successful in controlling so much territory?
