I believe that religious tolerance throughout the empire was their most important achievement. I believe this because religious tolerance leads to people being a lot more creative. More creativity leads to more inventions. New inventions lead to more strength in battle, which leads to more conquered land.

I believe that their most important achievement was reopening the silk road. If they had not reopened the silk road many important inventions would have never reached China. Also, ideas of different religions, that began in other places, would never have come to China either. Without the silk road China wouldn't have traded much with the outside world, so their economy could even decline! The silk road benefited the Mongol empire in many ways.

I agree with Haley. I think that the silk road reopening was the most important achievement because it increased different inventions and ideas. Also, since there was lots of people coming from many places different religions were spreading throughout the world.

I agree with you Haley, this was an extremely important achievement. Their are many things that were very important to get to China, many new inventions. Trading was extremely important and without the silk road China could not have done it. I think their most important achievement was reopening the silk road.

I agree with Haley about reopening the Silk Road being a great Mongol accomplishment. I think that because they did that religion and inventions spread around the world which creates more diversity in the world. Buddhism became a huge religion because of trade and people spreading the word while on the Silk Road.

I agree with you Haley. The silk road helped them create different inventions, and gave them an understanding of different religions. So the silk road did help the Mongols in many different ways.

I agree with Haley. If the Mongols did not reopen the silk road then the Mongols would have never been able to trade with outside world, and that probably would have made their economy decline.

Even though the Mongols re-opened the Silk Road and created a religious and cultural tolerance, I think the more important event was creating the largest land empire ever. This made them even more important in history and a lot of new ideas were generated from all the land they had. If the Mongols hadn't been as strong as they were or conquered s much land as they did, they might not have conquered China at all.

Though Daniels point is valid, I have to disagree with him. Having the largest empire and land is very cool but not as amazing as re-opening the Silk Road. So many things spread because of the Silk Road including religion, food, culture, and more.

I agree with Daniel S. that the more important event was creating the largest land empire ever. Like it was about a third of the world. That is amazing.

I agree with Daniel I think conquering all the land that they did was the Mongol's greatest accomplishment. Everyone was afraid of the Mongol's which was good, because they used fear of people to conquer all that they did.

I think all of the things that the Mongols did were important but I feel the most important thing they did was reopen the Silk Road. This was very important because a lot of great things took place there. Marco Polo traveled through the road and without him we would not have the popular pool game "Marco Polo".

I agree with you Annabel. If the Mongols hadn't reopened the silk road, China wouldn't have learned about new inventions or ideas. Also, we may not have some of our common inventions if the silk road wasn't reopened.

I think that there most important achievement was reopening the silk road. This was very important because this allowed more ideas and inventions to trade over to China. If it was never reopened than none of this would have happened and no ideas would have gotten to China. The silk road was very beneficial.

I agree about everything you said Emma. Especially about no ideas going through China. It was a good they reopened it otherwise the empire probably wouldn't have gone how far it has.

I think that it was The mongols owning a ginormous piece of land. They were the biggest empire in history. Everybody was afraid of them. The empire all crashed because of two typhoons 7 years apart.

I think that the Mongols' biggest achievement was having the biggest empire. At one point in time they controlled about one third of the world. They will be remembered for a long time.In fact, their empire probably could have gotten bigger if the two typhoons didn't wipe out their ships when they were going to attack Japan.

I think the greatest achievement by the Mongols were when they had the biggest empire in the world at the time. And that is because no one with the type of weapons they had back then could do that I mean seriously. Plus it is incredible to do that with not that many people. !st they started off small but they got a giant group.

I think the most important achievement of the Mongols was reopening the silk road. This road was very important to China, without they could not have done many of the things they had. Such as trade which was very important in Chinese culture, to have better trade they needed the silk road. Also, the spread of the new inventions never would make it to China or out of China.

I think that controlling the largest land empire was the biggest achievement done by the Mongols. I think this because they manged to control lots of land and keep it organized. They also conquered lots of land and by doing this it just made them stronger and stronger

I think that creating the largest empire in the world was a feat, but reopening the Silk Road was more useful in the end. The Silk Road spread religion, ideas, and new inventions to the rest of the world. The Silk Road also had very popular trade routes and showed travelers new things. The Silk Road was a big part of the new world and is very important.

Although opening the Silk Road and creating a cultural and religious tolerance were great achievement by the Mongols. I believe that Conquering all that they did was their greatest achievement. Everyone feared the Mongols. They had so much power and gained more and more every time they conquered land. The Mongols were wiped out by a typhoon twice 7 years apart. Now that's bad luck.

I think that reopening the silk road was more of an achievement for the Mongols than them conquering the biggest land empire, or them creating religious tolerance. I think this because if they did not reopen the silk road then a lot of inventions would have never reached China. If they didn't have the inventions that they got from reopening the silk road then the Mongols might have fell a lot sooner than it did.

Honestly, I believe that re-opening the silk road was the biggest achievement. I say this because trade and spreading new ideas are big . If the Mongols never re-opened the silk road, We probably wouldn't have adapted Chinese Culture until the mid-1800's. For this reason we would not be in good touch with the Chinese.
