The Silk Road

 The Silk Road was a trading route. Mongolia Conquered so much land. They conquered all the way from China to Constantinople. It expanded through the Silk Road. They protected the people from bandits. The most famous person to go on the silk road was Marco Polo. After Kublai Khan Died the other leaders made lots of little cities and Mongolia fell apart. After Mongolia fell apart the Silk Road was not safe for people to go on because there were bandits and the Mongolians didn't stop them.    

 
Today I played Civ And i want to change history Because the Mongolians fought Istanbul but they didn't Conquer it. I want to fight Constantinople in Civ and conquer Constantinople and change history. But The Mongols were so far away from Constantinople it will be hard to conquer Constantinople.
