Mongols are an East Asian ethnic group originating from Mongolia, inner Mongolia in China, Buryatia Republic of the Russian Federation. The Mongol is the main stem in the vast tree of Mongolic peoples.

The Mongols are famous for their nomadism and martial nature. The Mongols were highly expert horsemen and archers, who later established a huge empire that spread on both sides of Eurasia during the 13th and 14th centuries. The Mongol Empire is considered the biggest contiguous land empire and covered an area from China to Europe.

• Genigic Kahn brought together the tribes of the Mongols by building a formidable army. During this era, Genghis Khan and his successors took possession of massive territories across Asia and parts of Europe thereby promoting and imposing the Mongol religion and culture.
• This is the time that saw the beginning of the decline of the Mongol Empire following the death of Genghis Khan. Eventually, the empire fell apart and gave birth to numerous small khanates, which often waged war. Finally, the Mongols were pushed back by the Ming Dynasty of China and the Timurid Empire of Central Asia.
• The fall of the Mongol Empire did not prevent Mongols from playing a significant part in the history of Asia. They contributed to the growth of the Mughal empire in India and the Qing dynasty in China. It is also worth noting that the Mongols had an impact on the spread of the two religions across Asia.
• Currently, more than six million Mongolians live across the planet. Most of the Mongols reside in Mongolia, Inner Mongolia, and Russia. Mongol population is high in China, Kazakhstan, and Kyrgyzstan too.

The Mongol people are renowned for a significant culture. This group has an old reputation for traditional music, dances, and cuisines. Mongol is also synonymous with cavalry skill and mastery in shooting.
