The evidence from these documents supports the claim that Mongol rule positively impacted the economy of the lands they conquered. The role of trade and commerce in the Mongol Empire.
At the start of the thirteenth century, the mongols rose to power using various tactics both psychologically and physically , extending their territory far and wide across Afro-Eurasia.

Mongols warriors swept across much of Asia, the Middle East, and Eastern Europe.

The effect it had on the people was that they could have a wider range of religions.
