According to the author Ghengis Khan’s empire spanned from China to Europe. That the Renaissance was enabled due to the Mongols ridding them of the knights, opening up trade and sharing new technologies with the Europeans.

this is from altai, on the border with mongolia
i think that the mongolians have a lot more to be proud of than anyone recognises
Thanks for this, I will check it out. I do agree, the Mongols were later painted as barbarian warriors but author maintains a very different picture.
It definitely is, even Chaucer wrote about Ghengis Khan and the Mongols! I think there is more to learn here.
