The MongolsThe Mongols
The Mongols, known as Tatars to the Russians, were nomadic people who raised livestock by pasturing and producing everything they needed from the herds. The unification of the Mongol tribes by Genghis Khan strengthened the country in the 13th century.
By 1240, the Mongols had conquered or destroyed almost every city in Kievan Russia, using cavalry archers, under the leadership of Batu Kahn.
The Mongols created the largest contiguous empire in world history.

we will take your head. Used cruelty as a weapon some areas
never recovered from Mongol destruction!
