Well... What if China claims every acre of land that the Yuan Dynasty(aka Mongolian Empire) owned belongs to China?  well Central Asia would be gone completely, as well as Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Bangladesh and eastern India Added to that all of Siberia and Alaska will be taken by China as well. At least Pakistan is safe!  Wait, China controlled Vietnam? |

manstein said they even had Ukraine and Hungary? Can't confirm that.... At this time period that the Mongols were in, the Kievan Rus (The predecessor to what is now Russia) contained areas like the Ukraine, Belarus and most of central Russia. Thus, I counted Ukraine as part of Russia for this specific time period. They did take Hungary, and would have galloped on to take Italy, France, Switzerland and Iberia if not for those pesky Alpine mountains. Because the Mongols were based virtually entirely on cavalry, which is part of the reason why they were so successful and swift, they would not be able to get across the Alps and into Italy. Plus, by the time Hungary was taken and Austria was soon to follow, the Mongols were going through some internal strife, which certainly doesn't help conquest. And their emperor/commander had died so they had to retreat. |

At least Pakistan is safe! Wait, China controlled Vietnam? He is talking about the Mongol Empire. Also, China did establish tributary states in Vietnam, the tributary state relationship actually helped spread Buddhism into Vietnam as well as some Chinese technologies. The Vietnamese did not like having to be in an inferior relationship to the Chinese, however, and a rebellion led by two sisters against the Chinese resulted in a Vietnamese independence from Chinese indirect rule. The Trung Sisters Rebellion did eventually die down, however, and the Chinese reasserted their rule over Vietnam. Multiple Chinese dynasties also took over Tonkin, Northern Vietnam. |

At least Pakistan is safe! And Hungary, Ukraine, Caucasus, Iran, part of European Russia, Afghanistan, AND........... PAKISTAN. Sorry about that Napoleon Bonaparte, Mongolian Empire is just that big. They'd either stop at Iran (because the two nations are allies) or they'd just get rekt by Russia  |
