The Mongol Empire can be seen as marking the beginning of the modern age, and of globalization as well. While communications between the extremes of Eurasia existed prior to the Mongols, they were infrequent and often through intermediaries. As this new book by Timothy May shows, the rise of the Mongol Empire changed everything through their conquests the Mongols swept away dozens of empires and kingdoms and replaced them with the largest contiguous empire in history.
