In the early 13th century, a coalition of steppe clans transformed into the most dynamic war machine and governing enterprise of its age. Forged in the Steppe follows the ascent of Genghis Khan from fractured tribal politics to continental empire, tracing campaigns across North China and Central Asia and the devastating clash with the Khwarazmian state. Beyond the battlefield, it reveals how the Mongols built a state that ran on speed, law, and logistics—postal relays, multilingual chanceries, merchant partnerships, and a disciplined guard that enforced clear rules from Karakorum to Bukhara.
The book explores the empire’s image among friends and foes, the balance of terror and trust, and the careful choreography of succession that carried power beyond Genghis Khan’s death in 1227. It culminates in the shock of 1241-1242, when Europe reeled at Legnica and Mohi before the riders turned back, leaving a changed political imagination in their wake. This is the story of how hoofbeats, paper, and policy remade Eurasia.
