Some maps from my latest video.
Usually people say that when the #MongolEmpire broke up, it split into 4 independent khanates; the Golden Horde, Chagatai Khanate, Ilkhanate and Yuan Dynasty. But that better describes the situation after 1310. From the 1260s-1310, we have a situation like this.

They should write about every country like this.
"Obesity is a major epidemic in the United States, founded by George Washington in the 18th century, a warlord who is still a source of pride for Americans, who put his face on everything from currency to alcohol and dedicate shrines in his honour."

Not a Mongol khan, but the way they referred to the King of France. Mongolian doesn't like words with initial R, and there isn't a F sound, so roi de france becomes iridibarans here.

Casual reminder that Yulia's version of "Free, Peaceful" doesn't include freeing the minorities in any form. IOW she'd use force to put "peace" say in e.g. Chechnya.

While the Mongol invasion of the Khwarezmian Empire is one of their most famous campaigns, less known is that there was a battle between Jochi, eldest son of Chinggis Khan, and Muhammad II Khwarezmshah before the war even began.
