The Mongol invasions and conquests took place during the 13th and 14th centuries, creating history's largest contiguous empire, the Mongol Empire (1206–1368), which by 1260 covered large parts of Eurasia. Historians regard the Mongol devastation as one of the deadliest episodes in history.[1][2]
At its height, the Mongol Empire included modern-day Mongolia, China, North and South Korea, Burma, Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Central Asia, Siberia, Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Turkey, Belarus, Ukraine, and most of Russia.[3]
