The Mongols

Here's a topic for the largest contiguous land empire - and the second largest empire of all, after the British Empire - in history. As with the Ottoman Empire, I'll start by quoting the Civilopedia:

Quote:
 
The Mongolian Empire formed the largest contiguous empire in the history of the world, stretching from the Danube to the Sea of Japan and from Siberia to Cambodia - roughly 22% of the Earth's land area. From humble beginnings as a mish-mash of unaligned nomadic tribes, the Mongols changed the face of the ancient world and became one of the most feared and effective military forces ever to walk the land.
Is anyone here interested in them, and does anyone know a lot about them?

One thing I've learned from Crash Course is that they're the exception to pretty much everything :P :
