I had always thought that Genghis Khan was the sole ruler of the Yuan Dynasty, bu he was not. Can you please tell me why the Mongol Empire was so strong?
May. 21,2009 04:28 Ms.Evelyn(China) replied:
You should ask why the Mongolian forces were so strong in 13th century?
I think there are five reasons: 1. Mongolia is a nomadic group. They can adjust themselves into very hard living conditions. They were good at riding horse and archery. 2. The great hero Genghis Khan was born. He made the Mongolians unified together. 3. The nobles of Nuzhen people bullied Mongolians, which made the Mongolians have awareness of suffering. 4. The productivity of Mongolia was weak. Every person hoped to seize wealth through wars. 5. Before the Mongolian society changed to be a feudal society, slavery was practiced. The slave owners needed a large number of people to serve them.

Most definitely an interesting dynasty. It also amazes me that a single rebel army could make their way all the way to the capital and take down the entire Yuan Dynasty.
May. 5,2009 15:48 Mrs.smart mouth(USA) replied:
well of course they captrued the capital. The reigns of the later Yuan emperors were short and were marked by intrigues and rivalries. Uninterested in administration, they were separated from both the army and the populace. China was torn by dissension and unrest; outlaws ravaged the country without interference from the weakening Yuan armies.

Hello, I am Mongolian and live in Ulaanbaatar. The Mongols never been a minority and we are a nation with same level with your Han Nation. Chinggis was a Mongol who has blue stain on this back. All of Mongols have blue stain when they were in childhood. I heard that Chinese people don't have this blue stain. Please update your information which is saying Mongols is a minority group.
Dec. 29,2008 03:20 Mr.Hope Your Understaning replied:
However, in China, the population of Mongols is less than that of Han People. So, they are considered a minority group. I think the saying in the article is right. I guess you are now in Outer Mongolia? Yes, you are living in a Mongol nation. But it's so different from the situation of the Mongols in China. Finally, I want to tell you one word, 'No boundaries between ethnic group.'

I need to do little correction (I have been studied Mongolian history for 13 years). Genghis Khaan is a title. Because Mongolians used to give titles to their Khans. His real name is Temuujin (not Tiemuzhen). I think, Mongolia is not ethnic minority group, it is a nation. Genghis means 'Oceanic'. Moreover, Khubilai just moved his capital city from Kharkhorum to nowadays Beijing (because he inherited such a big land it was his desire to move his capital city to anywhere. Beijing was the biggest city in that time). I agree he somehow liked chinese culture because he had chinese tutor.
Dec. 14,2008 19:47 Ms.Yuan(China) replied:
Mr David, thank you for your correction and also we are very glad to meet you, an expert of Mongolian history. As for the spelling of Genghis Khan's real name, I want to give some explanation here and hope to receive your agreement on it. According to Chinese mandarin, tiemuzhen is a right spelling. Its Chinese handwriting is 铁木真. So, the author of this article just used pinyin to spell Genghis Kan's name as per the pronunciation of mandarin, i.e. putonghua.
Anyway, we hopes you could give more comments or suggestions to TravelChinaGuide in your spare time. Thanks again!
