When the Mongols were invading Europe, why didn't they go North?
Did they fear the Finnish Warrior?

No loot or enough people they can make money off of them (you can’t tax Siberia)

Their big man died.
Only reason the West rules the world today, while everywhere else is full of backwards, inbred mongrels.

>most of their empire is either steppe or desert
Name 1 empire more overrated than the Mongols.

Why would you invade a place where there is nothing to eat, nobody worth taxing, and barely anything to trade?
Finland was nothing but trees, cold, and depression. Oh, wait, it still is.

Considering that the typical layman doesn't even understand the actual importance of the Mongol Empire, I'd say it's reasonably rated, if not a bit underrated.

They did kind of own it anyway, the northern borders shown on maps are kind of imaginary. The tribes in southern siberia paid tribute to the mongols, and there wasn't anyone living in the tundra region so.

Persia is mostly desert, its the typical arab country.
China was a bunch of irrelevant towns and villages, it was back then not much more different from central asia.
Jack Anderson
Fricking unorganized, outnumbered squabbling Greek homos could beat the Persians - nothing to brag about there.

UH, tons of empires are less impressive. Hell I'd say even the British Empire was less impressive. Mongol empire ranks only below such empires as Rome, and real colonial empires like Habsburg Spain
