Mongolia and its Stand on The Atomic Bomb, Disarment and Outer Space

The Mongolian Empire began in the central area of Asia around the 13th century. This empire grew and clans expanded to numerous regions across the Asian, European and African continents. This empire was able to gain these regions by means of conquest which quickly resulted in gains of power and influences across the world. Below I will further discuss how the Mongol conquest had global implications.

The Mongol Empire had many impacts on modern day Asia and other parts of the world. Genghis Khan led an empire from the steppes of Asia during the 13th century, called the Mongols. They conquered a lot of land, from to Korea to Poland, and also from Vietnam to Syria. Because they ‘terrorized’ much of Asia, they were known as barbarians. They were thought to live beyond civilization, and known as evil. The Mongolians of the Asian Steppe had a negative impact on the world during their rule of the Asian continent from 1206 to 1368 by influencing violence, destruction, and the falling of cities.

Towards the end of the post classical period, during the early twelfth century new empires rose to power. Specifically, the Mongol Empire located in the steppes of Central Asia. The Mongol Empire was started by Genghis Khan who was part of a nomadic clan. Khan used his position as leader of the clan to unite all the clans in the area to create a very powerful army, which he then used to expand further and conquer empires such as China, Russia, the Middle East, and and the city of Baghdad creating the Mongol Empire. The Mongol Empire controlled the most land of any empire. As the Mongol Empire conquered new Empires they effected them through the environment, social classes, politically economically, and their culture. Two empires that the Mongol Empire had an effect drastically on was China and Russia politically and economically. The Mongol Empire improved China and Russia economically by facilitating trade routes stabilizing China economy and helped Russia semi-stable their economy. Politically the Mongol Empire enforced a system which united the people in China and helped Russia develop a political system indirectly.

Two main theorists of international relations, Kenneth Waltz and Scott Sagan have been debating on the issue of nuclear weapons and the proliferation of nuclear weapons in the 21st century. In their book The Spread of Nuclear Weapons: An Enduring Debate, they both discuss their various theories, assumptions and beliefs on nuclear proliferation and nuclear weapons. To examine why states would want to attain/develop a nuclear weapon and if increasing nuclear states is a good or bad thing. In my paper, I will discuss both of their theories and use a case study to illustrate which theory I agree with and then come up with possible solutions of preventing a nuclear war from occurring.

Prior to the rise of the Mongol empire and their invasion of Russia, was a time of violence. Mongolia separated by tribes and provinces was a non-unified empire with little impact to Central Asia. Being separated, feuds between provinces of power and money were the reason why Mongolia remained separated. The provinces after a long a grueling process eventually became united by a

Additionally, it also presents perspectives on important policies and strategies of Iran and North Korea, in regard to the development of their armory of nuclear weapons.

The Mongol Empire was founded in the year 1206 by Genghis Khan. At its largest, the Mongol Empire spanned from the South China Sea in the East, to parts of Asia in the North, to the Mediterranean sea in the West and to the Himalayan Mountains in the South (Document 1). The Mongol Empire had a positive impact on the rest of the world by changing trade routes, welcoming all religions and having many great inventions.

The Mongols were nomadic pastoralists who originated in the Eurasian steppes but eventually conquered the largest contiguous empire in history. The first ruler Genghis Khan was able to unite the loosely-bound nomadic clans in 1206 AD and begin seizing land through ingenious military tactics such as base-10 warrior organization, trickery, and terror. Later, his grandson Kublai Khan continued conquering new land and adding it to their vast yet relatively decentralized government. Although there were a few positive effects of Mongol rule, they still had an overall negative impact on Eurasia because of the large quantities of deaths they caused and their weakening of Chinese power in their own government.

The Mongols are a group of men and some women who took over China, and united the largest empire in the world history. They did this in many ways, some positive and some negative, using smart tactics to make their way to ruling the empire. Nevertheless, the Mongols had a more positive impact than negative by influencing transportation and communication, economic diversity, and politics in the world around them for many years.

Omar Royer Mongol DBQ Originating in the Eurasian Steppes; Mongolian forces were some of the fiercest warriors the world had seen up to the point in history, with ruthless battle tactics that eventually lead to them spawning the largest connected empire that was ever founded. Established and led for a time by the highly-intelligent Genghis Khan, utilizing fear mongering and taking advantage of their nomadic lifestyle; created the most fierce cavalries to grace the Eastern hemisphere. THeir war tactics lead to them conquering most of Asia which bled into India, and Russia among numerous other territories. [Doc 12] The Mongols are an ethnicity originate from an area that is now Mongolia, Russia and China; and according to Chinese records

Ever since 1691, Mongolia had been under the rule by the Manchu conquerors of China and while Mongolian cities were somewhat easy to control, there were also nomadic Mongolian tribes who remained firm in their identities as agriculturalists. After the fall of the Qing Dynasty in 1911 after the Chinese Revolution, the Mongolian nobility declared Mongolia’s independence from China and placed the Bogdo Khan, a reincarnated Buddhist lama, in the role of the country’s political and spiritual leader. However, the new Republic of China denied Mongolia’s declaration of independence and conflict ensued. Revolutionaries from Outer Mongolia enlisted the help of Russia to secure its independence, and in 1921 the Russian Red Army along with the Mongolian forces drove out the Chinese forces and regained control of the country. After this, the Bogdo Khan was again placed as the constitutional monarch, but after his death there was no lama reincarnation identified. Therefore, Mongolia was renamed the Mongolian People’s Republic and was under the leadership of the socialist Mongolian People’s Revolutionary Party (MPRP). In 1949, the Communists won the Chinese Civil War and under this new leadership accepted Mongolia as an independent country. Over the next decades leading into and during the Cold War,

Could you ever imagine living in China? You would probably walk out the door, look to your right and then you would see many people fighting with other people. Thanks to Genghis Khan and his crew (the Mongols), they helped unite all of China, with a lot of peace. According to the textbook it quotes that “Kublai Khan united China for the first time in more than three-hundred years.” Or by inferring the Pax Mongolica to all of China and other continents. As a result the Mongolian of the Asian Steppe had a positive impact on the world during their rule of the Asian continent. Around the years of 1260 and 1368, by influencing the Largest empire ever, Unity (Pax Mongolica) and the Silk Road.

The Space Race is a pivotal part of the Cold War’s history. During the ending of World War II, both the United States and the Soviet Union initiated a military, political, and technological supremacy battle. There was no physical fighting, instead both superpowers competed through space exploration. Between 1957-1969 the United States and the Soviet Union battled to overcome and take control over space which led to tensions alleviating in the 1970’s causing the pressure and necessity to decrease resulting in both superpowers collaborating in many tasks. Many of the technology that dealt with space exploration began with military affiliations. The

The Mongols of Central Asia, under the lead of Genghis Khan, encompassed China and Russia in the thirteenth century C.E. Harsh conquest with massacre and destruction of infrastructure were experienced by these regions. During Mongol rule, China was governed through the traditional dynastic system while Russia was indirectly administered from the steppes with aid from local princes. Although the pastoralists required tribute collection from both civilizations, only China enjoyed significant economic flourish brought by the restoration of long-distance trade routes.

In the early 13th Century an impressive and terrifying force was spreading over half the known world. Atop the backs of horses the Mongols brought down large empires with their military conquest and innovative conquest. The Mongolians started their empire as a collection of nomadic tribes struggling for supremacy. Little did they know but major kingdoms across the world were about to experience a dark age. Over the course of the Mongolian conquest the innovation in war, commerce, and diplomatic circles would change the world forever. China, Western Europe, Russia, and the Middle East were all targets for the Mongolian Empire during their short time as an almost unstoppable force. Following great leaders ranging from Chinggis, Kublai, and Ogedei the story of the Mongolian empire is one of conquest and supremacy. The Mongolian Empire was an important culture that changed the face of the world.
