The Routledge Handbook of the Mongols and Central-Eastern Europe
offers a comprehensive overview of the Mongols' military,
political, socio-economic and cultural relations with Central and
Eastern European nations between the thirteenth and fifteenth
centuries. The Mongol Empire was the largest contiguous land empire
in history, and one which contributed to the establishment of
political, commercial and cultural contacts between all Eurasian
regions. The Golden Horde, founded in Eastern Europe by Chinggis
Khan's grandson, Batu, in the thirteenth century, was the dominant
power in the region. For two hundred years, all of the countries
and peoples of Central and Eastern Europe had to reckon with a
powerful centralized state with enormous military potential. Some
chose to submit to the Mongols whilst others defended their
independence, but none could avoid the influence of this powerful
empire. In this book, twenty-five chapters examine this crucial
period in Central-Eastern European history, including trade,
confrontation, and cultural and religious exchange between the
Mongols and their neighbours. This book will be an essential
reference for scholars and students of the Mongols, as well those
interested in the political, social and economic history of
medieval Central-Eastern Europe.
