The Mongol Empire expanded through brutal raids and invasions, but also established routes of trade and technology between East and West. The empire unified the nomadic Mongol and Turkic tribes of historical Mongolia.
The empire sent invasions in every direction, ultimately connecting the East with the West with the Pax Mongolica, or Mongol Peace, which allowed trade, technologies, commodities, and ideologies to be disseminated and exchanged across Eurasia. Ultimately, the empire started to fragment; it dissolved in 1368, at which point the Han Chinese Ming Dynasty took control.
