Timeline of Mongol conquests

Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - Cite This Source

The Mongol Empire emerged in the course of the 13th century by a series of conquests and invasions throughout Central and Western Asia, reaching Eastern Europe by the 1240s. The speed and extent of territorial expansion parallels the Hunnic/Turkic conquests of the Migration period (the 6th century Turkic Khaganate).

The territorial gains of the Mongols persisted into the 15th century in Persia (Timurid dynasty) and in Russia (the "Tatar Yoke"), and into the 19th century in India (the Mughal Empire).
