The Mongols had a positive affect in my source. They inflicted on a large scale, in battle their powerful bows caused heavy enemy casualties. They never left any enemy behind so no one could be capable of renewing resistance. The death toll effected the conquests, spanning nearly two centuries. To show that Khan was serious he limited the destruction

the mongols had both because they burned towns and villages taking all of their silk, grain, precious metals, and sophisticated war machinery. on the other they passed laws that protected agricultural population from harassment. the poor also got government welfare assistance: like food, clothes, and money. ''The Great Khan Mongke commanded: ''make the agricultural population safe from unjustified harassment.''they had more of a positive affect because of the way there government was structured. they helped more people than they killed.

He had a positive effect cause  they gave a lot of people jobs so they could support  them and there familys. He also made a more wide spread every where so it was more easy to communicate and trade stuff. He also made scientific and cultural achievements that has helped us in modern day military wepons and ways to fight. He also had a general faith for his people but did not force them to worship.

I think that the the Mongols had a positive affect on world history. The Mongols accepted religions such as Islam when they recruited soldiers and translators. When the mongols conquered countries they took in the religion and languages of the people. For an example the Mongols main language was Persian after they conquered them.  Genghis Khan hired muslims for senior positions in china because he believed they were smarter.

Based on my source, the Mongols had a positive affect on world history. All the different cultures were blended together, and there was more trade. People were able to translate things like the works of Euclid and Ptomely and Chinese medical works. The people were also able to hear other's legends and stories and make up their own versions. "The movement of peoples resulted in exchanges of goods, ideas and styles and in frequent and widespread contact between peoples of widely different cultural, ethnic, religious, and language backgrounds."

Mongols gave a positive effect on world history because they gave the Turkic groups jobs and Persians and Muslims political positions. People had power all over the empire despite what race or what you believed in. They used foreign recruits in case of Chinese dissatisfaction. scholars from Persia were especially admired by there scientifically and environmental achievement. Persian was the official language of the mongols.

The Mongols had a negative affect on World History. Christianity was lost because of disunity. There were many disputes and communities in China and Inner Eurasia shrank. Neither the missionary labors or political overtures resulted in success for the Latin church. The Mongols also had a positive affect because large donations were made to Buddhist temples and were supported them in arguments.

The Mongols had a positive affect on World History in the way of construction. The mongols did not destroy every town that they battled in "Many of the towns the Mongols destroyed rose again a few years later with Mongol help.". The Mongols built such things such as stations that helped communication and travel by providing supplies. "both troops and civilians travelers could get food, drink, lodging, and a change of horses.", "Roads and bridges built originally to service the Mongol military became trade and travel routes". The mongols extended the Grand Canal which gave cheap transport to rice. The Mongols did a lot of negative things such as killing innocent civilians and destroying towns but I think that there were some positive things that the Mongols achieved.

I think that they had a negitive effect on history because of all the people they killed. The people that they killed could have been that one person that invented that one thing to change the world. But they had a positive effect because those same people they killed could have also destroyed the world. They could have invented a more sophisicated bomb and blew up even more people which would could have meant, some of us would not be here today. Some examples from the text of why i think this are , Negitive- "Mass Slaughter of defeated enemy soldgers and civilians was used a deliberate policy of terror"
positive- "Khubiliai's revision of the Chinese law code reduced the number of offenses that carried the death to half what it had been under the previous dynasties."

Based off of my source the Mongols had a positive effect on history. Khubilai gave a large amount of Buddhist monks political powers. He also donated large amounts to Buddhist temples. Some of the Mongol princely houses happened to be Nestorian Christians so the Mongolians did not affect Christians in a negative way. The Mongolians also received help from multiple Popes and missionaries in the steppes.

The Mongols had a negative affect on world history because it said they caused death on a large scale especially in battle.Most of where all the death they inflicted came from was when they was conquering most of China. They killed several million people. They didn't kill everyone they spared some of the artisans clerics of all religions young women and officers. They had influence on later years with how leaders would execute their own people if they did wrong.

The mongols had a positive affect on world history. They also had a negative affect too. Based on my source, the Mongolians spared many urban populations, more than were massacred. The mongol military caused millions of deaths in the process. They used mass slaughter of defeated enemy soldiers and civilians as a policy of terror. They wanted to scare the enemy and their will to fight. This is part of the reason why they had the one of the biggest empires.

The mongols had a positive effect on world history because they united with other groups that converted to Islam. They gave the Turkic groups jobs such as clerks, administrators, and translators as well as soldiers. "Persian culture, along with Islam, spread into Central and Eastern Asia", this was a good thing for the mongols. Persia became one of the official languages of the Mongolian empire and used some in China. So, mongols also spread languages, and helped Persia become admired for their achievements.

The Mongols had a negative and positive impact. They murdered thousands of people, but they also raped the women. He owed profits for the trade promoted. But it says "The poorest classes received something like government welfare assistance : food, clothes, and money." another positive thing was that some of the wealth that the Mongols got they redistributed it.

Based on my source, the Mongols had a positive affect because they allied with many turkic groups who were literate. This helped many religions spread all over the empire because they could read and write. "Persian became one of the official languages of the Mongol Empire..." The turkic or Persian groups were very smart and were hired as administrators and clerks. The mongols liked to have the elders of the Persian groups because of their education. "Admired for their scientific and cultural achievements." The Persian culture combined with the mongols allowed the expansion of many ideas and cultures through out the empire.

According to my source, the effect caused by the Mongols was positive. After Khubilai gained power he changed the Chinese law code and made the death penalty offenses less, this cut the death penalty near in half. The Mongols spared artisans, clerics of all religions, scribes, scholars, merchants, young women, and often officers, nobles, as well as administrators. In conclusion, although the Mongols did atrocities, it reduced death from law for many others as well as mad Urban areas more prosperous in Asia.

The Mongols had both a positive and negative impact. Based on my source, the Mongols "seriously damaged or neglected" irrigation channels which hurt agriculture around the world. "Destruction was a by-product of the Mongols' conquest,..." But they didn't just cause a negative affect. Construction initiated from Mongols and towns they destroyed rose again with their help.

They had both because they destroyed everything but that was bad for the people and good because they built things for trade and travel. But they had more of a positive impact because they pared artisans and others. At the same time they destroyed villages and territories and caused many to flee. Also they did not care about all the damage they caused and the population could not fix anything because of famine, massacre etc.

The Mongols in my source had a positive and negative impact of the rest of the world. The Buddhist were good because the Mongols made donations to them. They were bad for Christians because they didn't spread towards Asia. They made Christians serve in the army and they suffered partly because it didn't speak with a single voice. The Buddhist had the Mongols give them tax exemption to Buddhist monks and supported them in their arguments.

The mongols had a positive effect on word history by undertaking reforms for Mongolia. The ruler Ghangis Khan received the debt from 5 previous rulers and paid it off entirely. He also introduced the first income tax which no one likes but it keeps the money of the government in order. the way the mongols conquered everyone made them happy because the demand for goods increased alot due to how many people were introduced to the new areas. Ghangis also introduced welfare; meaning the poor were provided with clothes, food, and money

The Mongols had both a  positive and a negative affect on World History.  According to my source, the Mongols destroyed many villages and territories.  The source states that, "there was a large scale......forced movement of populations......many fled in terror when news reached them of an approaching Mongol army."  To me, this forced movement indicates and likely reinforces disunity in the empire.  The forced movement could have also stunted cities that might have had a significant impact on World History.  However, some of the lasting effects of the Mongol rule caused positively associated activities to occur.  One of these  activities is trade and the exchange of ideas.  My source remarks on the note of trade that, "the movement of peoples resulted in exchanges of goods, ideas......and ethnic, religious, and language backgrounds."  The fluidity of the people of Asia under the Mongols aided in the spread of ideas that influence our culture today.
