>The Mongol Empire was so vast, and it eventually fragmented rapidly into four separate nations, that it’s hard for me to truly grasp what such a massive empire was actually like.
Life in China during the Yuan Dynasty was terrible.
Because it was a slave-based state, and the Mongol nobility within the country was extremely corrupt, ordinary people simply couldn’t survive. This even led many Mongols living at the bottom of society in China to join the rebel forces, because if they didn’t resist, they would have been reduced to slavery.
Numerous civil wars erupted within the Yuan Empire, and ultimately, the empire collapsed after only 98 years.
But what were the Mongol states in Russia and the Middle East like?
I know almost nothing about what the other three Mongol states were like.

Golden Horde just took resources from people to the point where people started abandoning towns because it was less of a hassle to leave than pay a yearly tribute. The last Mongol rulers were basically running a giant bandit camp trying to find new settlements to raid. This is what I know about that. Don't know much about the other 2.

Marco Polo explored under Kublai Khan. It fell apart once he died. It was the only time period a traveler could safely cross the entire silk road. Not surprising Marco Polo has a mostly positive opinion of him. I think OP wants to know what it was like once the Mongol Empire was split up into 4 kingdoms.

OP I think you should take this to /his/ They would know more about it than a poltard.

Looked up Wikipedia. Says the last Khanate kingdom fell in 1705. Chagatai kept losing chunks. Ilkhanate fell apart before the Yuan Dynasty. Golden Horde got conquered by Russia in the 1500's. This is why history of the Golden Horde is written by a Russian perspective. Because this was the least civilized Mongols who got stuck with the leftovers.

mongols in chagatai became persiaphiles and they moved to afghanistan and india
ilkhanate mongols were mostly jews telling them what to do with the country

Hmm, I guess that's why Jewish people have those silly little bald head and side-curls hairstyles.

>Kublai Khan
Kublai Khan was actually quite an eccentric figure.
Although he was Mongolian, he was deeply fascinated by Chinese culture.
He recruited a large number of Han Chinese as his advisors to provide him with strategies for governing the country.
He even allowed Han Chinese to criticize the Mongols; as long as they paid their taxes, he didn’t mind even if they made extreme statements calling for the overthrow of the Yuan Empire.
Unfortunately, he was the only Yuan emperor who appreciated Chinese culture.
After his death, the Yuan Empire rapidly degenerated into a corrupt empire that even the Mongols could no longer tolerate.
This led to a series of civil wars, after which the empire quickly collapsed.
