How did the Golden Horde influence the development of Russia and Central Asia? This book delves into the history of the Golden Horde, the Mongol state that ruled over much of Russia and Central Asia from the 13th to the 15th century. It examines the rise of the Horde under Genghis Khan’s descendants, particularly under Batu Khan, and its role in the Mongol conquest of Eastern Europe. The narrative discusses the administrative systems, taxation policies, and military organization of the Golden Horde, as well as its interactions with neighboring powers, including the Russian principalities and the Islamic world. By analyzing the decline of the Golden Horde and its impact on the emergence of the Russian Empire, the book highlights the lasting cultural, economic, and political legacy of the Horde in shaping the history of Russia and Central Asia. |
