Introduction Throughout history, there have been many powerful empires. However, no empire in history has matched the magnitude of the Mongol Empire. For thousands of years, the Mongols were disunited and lived a very harsh and nomadic lifestyle. It took a very strong leader in the form of Genghis Khan to unite these people and create the most powerful empire in history. Once created, an effective military and government was needed to sustain this empire. Several factors led to the rise of the Mongol Empire including the role of Genghis Khan, military tactics, and Mongol government and policies.
