There was a time when 'A HORDE
OF MONGOLS
IS
COMING!' would have been enough to send an entire city scambling for
its collective

is separated into
Inner
Mongolia and Outer Mongolia by the Gobi desert.
Founded in 1206
by
Ghengis Khan, the Mongolian Empire was the
largest contiguous empire in
history,
covering over 12 million square miles and encompassing over 100 million
people.
Ghengis united several smaller nations in a
bloody takeover.

and
14th
centuries, nearly a third of the population was killed by the bubonic
plague
