Destruction under the Mongol Empire

Hey kiddo! Do you want to learn about how things were destroyed during the Mongol Empire? Well, the Mongol Empire was a big group of people who lived in Asia a long time ago. They were very good at fighting and they wanted to take over a lot of land.

When the Mongols went to other countries, they would fight with the people who lived there. Their leader, Genghis Khan, was really strong and he told his armies to destroy everything in their way. This means they would break down buildings, burn crops, and hurt people.

The Mongols believed that if they destroyed things, it would make people scared and they would give up without a fight. So everywhere the Mongols went, they left a trail of destruction behind them.

Sometimes the Mongols would also bring diseases with them, like the bubonic plague, which is a very bad sickness. When the Mongols went to Europe, they brought the plague with them and many people got sick and died.

Overall, the Mongol Empire was very powerful and they were able to conquer many places, but they did it by destroying everything in their path.
