Mongols Are Ruthless And Barbarians

In the 13 century a sm every told tribe from the dance steppes of central Asia conquered a good deal of the center eastward and Eastern Europe. The tribe was known as the Mongol warriors. The Mongols were ruthless and in truth barbaric. While the Mongols conquered umpteen countries they didnt c ar who they hurt. up to now though they did avail some(a) of the areas that they conquered, they did too more bad things that oer power the good things. Their law was very confusing and at some separate it was unreasonable.They would torture survivors and they conquered more(prenominal) trim back than any of the broadest world conquest. As ruthless as the Mongols could be, to my surprise they were quite unionised as a union. In docu manpowerts 2 and 3 it talks ab come knocked out(p) of the closet how the soldiers should be organized and how they go out to war and entreat. John of Plano Carpini wrote in document 2 that the Mongol organization was very tiny and strict. For example 1 man was in charge of 10 men and 10 men were in charge of 100 men and if one member of the group fails or trys to hie away they would kill the whole group.This statement proves that the Mongols were all closely war and rules. Document 3 talks nigh already macrocosm on the battle field. In the passage it pleads chiefs or princes of the army do not take part in the struggle precisely take up their back up some distance away facing the opposite. The Mongols were very smart pot for example to amaze their fighting group look bigger and to give out a scary impression they would vomit figures of men and set them on horses.They would also send a group ahead to start the fight and when they enemy would get tired a new and fresh set of Mongol warriors would appear to hatch the fight. sometimes they would even take the fat of the concourse they kil guide and melt it and so throw it on houses and wherever the firing off falls on the fat it is almost inextinguishable th ats why they call it Grecian exculpate which proves righteous how ruthless and barbaric they truly were.John of Plano Carpini probably wrote both of these passages because he was the first European to confer the Mongols in their home lay and got to experience the ways of the Mongols first handedly in the signalise of shot of a non-Mongol. In documents 1, 4 and 5 it talks about the amount of conquered land and the number of tragic deaths or just the death caused by the Mongols in world(a). Document 1 shows all the big invaders of history and how much they invaded in a chart and it shows that Genghis khan took the lead with 4,860,000 square miles, ahead of alexander the great, Adolf Hitler and Cyrus the great.It also shows a chart of the Mongol empire after the death of Genghis khan and the land was divided into 4 parts for his grandsons which helps us prove that he was all about proceeding his role and the bigger the amount of land he had the better which sounds really selfis h and retrieve. The next document which is doc. 4 is a passage from Ata-Malik Juvaini who was a Iranian chronicler who was in the employ of the Mongol II-khan of Persia who served under the Mongols rule as the governor of Bagdad. The passage informs us about the invasion between the Mongols and the city of Nishapur, a city in Persia.It states that Nishapur had a good denial formation with three thousand crossbows, three hundred mangonels, and a quantity of missiles and naphtha that that lighten wasnt seemly to defeat the blast of the Mongols which clearly shows how powerful they were. A time later after the attack in that location were walls covered in Mongols and they began to slay and plunder the race and even worse they drove out all the men, women, and children who survived out into the plains where killed them all and if that doesnt prove that he was ruthless then I shamt know what will.The next evidence that Ata-Malik Juvaini provided for us is a chart of different places that were attacked and how much community died and or if there were no survivors. Juvaini wrote the passage because he got to see what was going on but what I would look at liked more is a passage from a Mongol soldiers point of view to see if some of the soldiers thought that what they were doing was a bit too extreme. In document 5 the Mongols were erst again demonstrating another symbolise of inhumane cruel behavior.Its a scene from a Persian manuscript showing the Mongols soldiers shoot some of the survivors with arrows while they also buried the rest of the survivors acme batch in the ground face first and to be honest it doesnt sound so comfy. Even though historians like myself try everything in their power to set the record straight about the Mongols being ruthless barbarian there is always a group of people who dare to argue. They say that the Mongols benefited many another(prenominal) of the places that the conquered like for example the Persian silk industry also benefited from the Mongol conquest by all the contacts that open up up with china.Another benefit is that Persian winemakers thrived under the Mongol control because the Mongols were such heavy drinkers (doc. 6) and the contention from there goes on and on at least that what they say. They also say that the Mongols did demonstrate some act of benevolence like the detail that the leader of the Mongol empire, Genghis khan, outlawed any acts that involved theft and fornication. Ibn Battuta verbalise that if you alienated something on your way expect it to be brought to you because the law against theft was that strict (doc.7).They also created or started up messaging systems. First they would send a man 25 miles to the posting station but in their language it was called yams. Once the man arrive, he packs the mail onto the horses and they take it from there. If they ever come across a lake or a river then the messengers must pass through with ferrying boats that are kept by neighboring cities (doc 8). The thing that sold the Mongols good act to many people was the fact that the Mongols was tolerant of many religious.In what looks like a journal it gives us proof that Mongke Khan, who was the fourth great Khan, gave a speech saying But just as God gave different fingers to the hand so has He given different ways to men. (Doc 9) What all of these documents take away in common is that they showed what the Mongols did to benefit many places that they conquered and yes they did reach a lot but they did too much wrong to forget the fact that they are ruthless killers. Many of the Mongols laws also showed evidence that they were strict, ruthless, and unreasonable people.Like on their laws about adultery it says that whoever commits the crime of adultery they shall be executed. But it also says that if you are a non-believer and you want to get with the married woman then you have to kill her husband first. Another outrageous fact about their law that I embed out about is that the man could have as many wives as he can keep. It was a general custom for them to connect any of their relationships except with their mother, daughter, or sister but they could still marry their step sister and his fathers wives but only after the father has passed.To the Mongols, drunkenness is considered an delight in among their gadfly people. (Doc 10) This whole article clearly proves that the Mongols were very weird, disgusting, and uncivilized barbarians. Even though the Mongols conquest did benefit the conquered lands by giving religious tolerance, outlawing theft and adultery and a little bit more but it still doesnt wipe away the fact that they were cruel with the way they treated survivors and the number of deaths that were caused by them. also it doesnt change the fact that they have took away so many home and live from the people of the lands that they have conquered. Last barbaric act that they have committed is that their laws to their p eople were uncivilized I mean 1 man could have as many wives as he could hold and their punishments all led to execution. So through all of this evidence it clearly shows that the Mongols were in fact ruthless barbarians.Mongols are pitiless and BarbariansIn the 13 century a small tribe from the steppes of central Asia conquered much of the Middle East and Eastern Europe. The tribe was known as the Mongol warriors. The Mongols were ruthless and very barbaric. While the Mongols conquered many countries they didnt care who they hurt. Even though they did benefit some of the areas that they conquered, they did too many bad things that over powered the good things. Their law was very confusing and at some parts it was unreasonable.They would torture survivors and they conquered more land than any of the greatest world conquest. As ruthless as the Mongols could be, to my surprise they were quite organized as a union. In documents 2 and 3 it talks about how the army should be organized a nd how they go out to war and fight. John of Plano Carpini wrote in document 2 that the Mongol organization was very precise and strict. For example 1 man was in charge of 10 men and 10 men were in charge of 100 men and if one member of the group fails or trys to run away they would kill the whole group.This statement proves that the Mongols were all about war and rules. Document 3 talks about already being on the battle field. In the passage it says chiefs or princes of the army do not take part in the fighting but take up their stand some distance away facing the enemy. The Mongols were very smart people for example to make their fighting group look bigger and to give out a scary impression they would put figures of men and set them on horses.They would also send a group ahead to start the fight and when they enemy would get tired a new and fresh set of Mongol warriors would appear to continue the fight. Sometimes they would even take the fat of the people they killed and melt it then throw it on houses and wherever the fire falls on the fat it is almost inextinguishable thats why they call it Greek Fire which proves just how ruthless and barbaric they truly were.John of Plano Carpini probably wrote both of these passages because he was the first European to visit the Mongols in their homeland and got to experience the ways of the Mongols first handedly in the point of view of a non-Mongol. In documents 1, 4 and 5 it talks about the amount of conquered land and the number of tragic deaths or just the death caused by the Mongols in general. Document 1 shows all the big invaders of history and how much they invaded in a chart and it shows that Genghis khan took the lead with 4,860,000 square miles, ahead of alexander the great, Adolf Hitler and Cyrus the great.It also shows a graph of the Mongol empire after the death of Genghis khan and the land was divided into 4 parts for his grandsons which helps us prove that he was all about proceeding his role and the b igger the amount of land he had the better which sounds really selfish and mean.

In document 5 the Mongols were once again demonstrating another act of inhumane cruel behavior.Its a scene from a Persian manuscript showing the Mongols soldiers shoot some of the survivors with arrows while they also buried the rest of the survivors upside down in the ground face first and to be honest it doesnt sound so comfy.
