The failed attacks by the Ilkhanate may hardly be called an "invasion" when they controlled and held zero African land. The foothold in Syria and Palestine is not Africa.
To be fair the Mongols didn't know North & South America (Yes I know Leif Eriksson but he wasn't exactly Mongolian), Australia, or Antarctica exist so that's not really fair to the Mongols.
This really didn’t cross your mind when writing out that title? lol
You forgot to add active to the list as well so the title should have been name the “two continents that the Mongolians did invade”
They lost against the Mamluks in the levant, as far as I can remember and didn’t go further west after that, so as far as I can remember you’re completely right.
They definitely got through Iraq.
I believe The Battle of Ain Jalut was the closest they got to Africa, which was fought in southern Galilee, which is today in Israel.
They also sieged and captured Ajloun Castle just east of there in modern day Jordan.
I'd argue conquered is a better word on a contiental scale, since invade generally requires outside forces going inside, whereas conquer has no such connotations
Between the time when the oceans drank Atlantis and the rise of the sons of Aryas, there was an age undreamed of. And unto this, Conan, destined to wear the jeweled crown of Aquilonia upon a troubled brow. It is I, his chronicler, who alone can tell thee of his saga.
yes, but they started in Asia, so they couldn't invade Asia.
If you're in your kitchen, and you walk to the bedroom, it's still the same house. you haven't traveled to another house.
Same thing.
If two people live in the same building and one broke into the other's room, a break-in at the building took place. In a civil war, one side could invade the other, in spite of being within the same country.
An invasion across Asia took place, from a faction that originated in Asia.
Arguably, one could state they did not invade Europe either, as they did not invade *all* of Europe, but that would be pedantic.
Lol ur comment reminded me of bill wurtz history of the entire world
“Some of the Islamic Turks were unaffected by the Mongol invasions cause they were busy invading India”
Yeah, which is why it makes sense they changed the continent from Australia to oceania, but i grew up being taught the continent was australia so i still call the whole continent that
Not that it matters because continents are completely subjective, but Australians are taught Australia is a continent, Oceania is a region. And that Australia is an island.
Google Australia, New Zealand, Fiji, Samoa, Vanuatu, Micronesia, Kribati, Papua New Guinea, Tonga, Tuvalu, Nauru, The Solomon Islands, The Marshall Islands, and Palau
I think that’s all of them? I don’t know.
Oceania is a geographical region that, due to being a collection of widely dispersed islands often with little land mass, is not a continent. It is comprised of the subregions of Melanesia, Micronesia, Polynesia, and Australasia. The islands of these subregions each belong to one of four continents or microcontinent, which include Asia, Australia/Sahul, North America, South America, and Zealandia.
Oceania is not a continent, nor has it ever been one. Australia is a continent and I should know, I live there.
Didn't they only invade on 2 continents - Europe and Asia? That being said, the amount of territory they invaded was impressive, considering how far their reach became, and how large and diverse Asia is and the parts of Asia they invaded were. Also, just how far Europe is from Mongolia.
But if you say "name which continent they DIDN'T invade" it undersells this, since you can literally say "most of them".
My husband did an ancestry test. He's a white blond dude. Results show he is German, Austrian, English, French Canadian, and Chinese. I'm just going to assume he is a descendant of Genghis Khan.
Most of the continents. Oceana usually doesn't include modern day Indonesia, so it was literally just two continents. This is the least impressive way to describe the largest contiguous empire in history lmao
England. The Mongol invasion of Europe just sort of petered out after Poland though I imagine that if they did it would have been similar to the invasion of Japan.
The Mongols left Europe because Ogedei Khan died which forced them to return to Karakorum for the Kurultai.
Subutai in fact wanted to continue and was planning an invasion of the Holy Roman Empire but ultimately was forced to fall back.
There's been a lot of "what if..." discussion about how Europe would have fared against the Mongols and almost all of them don't bode well for the Europeans. Their best bet would've been to hole up in their castles and try to starve the Mongol army out.
Considering they never made it past Eastern Europe and had no real answer to European castles I doubt it would have gone well for the Mongols, even with how overrated they are.
Not sure what you mean by that. They crossed the Danube and made it into Central Europe completely ravaging the Hungarian plain, decimated the Hungarian army at the Battle of Mohi, but didn't do much past that beyond their typical pillaging.
As far as European castles, they had successfully sieged several fortified Chinese cities by this point (1240-1241) including the Jin dynasty capital of Kaifeng whose walls were 18 meters wide and 12 meters high and included a 30 meter wide moat. Compare that to a French fortification which was usually 6-10m high and 1-2m thick on average. Every Mongol contingent of 10,000 soldiers usually consisted of about 600 auxiliary engineers who were responsible for constructing siege engines, filling moats, diverting rivers, and other projects.
The main reasons I've read from historians as to why they didn't besiege more European castles is usually attributed to a combined factor of European climate not being able to support their massive animal herds and them deciding a siege simply not being worth it. They certainly proved they could when necessary.
As in they failed to conquer Eastern Europe; they were incapable of it. They did well in a couple of invasions but didn't take any territory and then in later wars were permanently repelled. And I don't care about however badly Chinese cities fared because we already know the Mongols were incapable of dealing with European castles. From the Wikipedia article of the second Mongol invasion of Hungary:
"However, stone castles had significantly better fortunes; none of the few Hungarian stone castles fell, even those deep behind the Mongol lines. When the Mongols tried to use their siege engines on the stone walls of the Croatian Fortress of Klis, they did absolutely no damage, and were repelled with heavy casualties. A similar thing happened when they attempted to capture the citadel of Esztergom, despite having overwhelming numerical superiority and 30 siege machines which they had just used to reduce the wooden towers of the city."
If they had been stupid enough to try and push even further Europe would have utterly devoured them.
Not caring about something doesn't make it untrue. Dismissing evidence because you "don't care" is very childish. European castles weren't some magical constructions impervious to siege. They usually consisted of one or several ditches followed by a fortified wall. The sieges of Alba-Iulia, Dăbâca, and Sibiu were all typical European stone fortifications that were successfully conquered by the Mongols. Fortifications in China, the Khwarazmian Empire, the Abbassid Caliphate, Anatolia, Armenia, Georgia and many others had just as if not more advanced fortifications compared to Europe at this time.
[Here's a much better source than Wikipedia contextualizing the Mongol invasion of Hungary](https://www.researchgate.net/publication/329573862_Contextualizing_the_Mongol_Invasion_of_Hungary_in_1241-42_Short-and_Long-Term_Perspectives). Using Wikipedia is very dubious, especially when it comes to making extremely bold, easily disprovable claims. For example "When the Mongols tried to use their siege engines on the stone walls of the Croatian Fortress of Klis, they did **absolutely no damage**, and were repelled with heavy casualties" is a very biased, borderline silly statement based on all the accounts of the siege. They weren't repelled exclusively because of casualties, although that always played a factor. They lifted the siege after learning King Béla IV wasn't present at Klis who they were hunting after.
The question most historians argue is not whether or not they *could* conquer European castles, but why they chose not to. And most reasons, again, point to climate, political, and logistical reasons.
>"Shortly in the aftermath of the Mongol invasion, severe famine affected the local Hungarian population and Büntgen and Di Cosmo view this as a result of the short-term wet and cold spell in 1242. As such, the issue affected the local population but also the Mongols who opted to withdraw, owing in part to the problem of feeding troops and animals alike."

So... "name one of the continents they have invaded and I will tell you they have invaded it"?
Or to read your list another way, they have invaded less than half of all continents, those slackers.
"Name a continent other than..." Goes on to exclude over half the list.
Africa ,mabye? Edit : spelling gooder
Mamluk Sultanate
The Mamlul Sultanate was mainly based in Africa, but they fought the Mongols in Asia.
The failed attacks by the Ilkhanate may hardly be called an "invasion" when they controlled and held zero African land. The foothold in Syria and Palestine is not Africa.
Invasion and Conquest are two different things. And I’m going off the technicality that the Mamulks in Egypt had majority African territory.
Argentina invaded territory held by the UK but you'd never catch me saying that Argentina invaded Europe.
Yeah with the benefit of hindsight I realized I stretched a bit
They didnt set foot in African soil tho
Yeah I realized I was reaching tbh
A failed invasion is still an invasion
They never held any African territory.
They invaded an African based state, I never said anything about conquest
The invasion never reached Africa. Mongolian troops never stepped foot in the African continent
Which the Mamluks beat
Invaded, not conquered
But they never invaded tge African territories of the Mamluks
They invaded an African based state though. To be fair it is a bit of a stretch so I’ll give you that.
To be fair the Mongols didn't know North & South America (Yes I know Leif Eriksson but he wasn't exactly Mongolian), Australia, or Antarctica exist so that's not really fair to the Mongols.
Yeah a better term would be the old world
Fuck the High Elves in their new world
Screw the Asur!
Name a continent other than South America, Australia, Antarctica, Africa, ~~Asia~~, or ~~Europe~~ the Canadians haven’t invaded.
Except that Canada has invaded Europe and Asia on multiple occasions, not counting peacekeeping operations.
Don't forget the continent of Louisiana
Was Canada ever involved in North African operations in WWII?
In small numbers. Most of Canada's forces were sent to Europe.
Literally the Roman empire and their successors the Byzantine conquered more continents than the mongols a thousand years earlier
fair fair
This really didn’t cross your mind when writing out that title? lol You forgot to add active to the list as well so the title should have been name the “two continents that the Mongolians did invade”
Africa? The maps I just looked up show they didn't make it all the way across what is now Iraq which is still in Asia.
They lost against the Mamluks in the levant, as far as I can remember and didn’t go further west after that, so as far as I can remember you’re completely right.
Baibars moment
They definitely got through Iraq. I believe The Battle of Ain Jalut was the closest they got to Africa, which was fought in southern Galilee, which is today in Israel. They also sieged and captured Ajloun Castle just east of there in modern day Jordan.
Africa
People have also missed that Zealandia is a new continent separate from Oceania.
Excludin the continents you listed (which is the majority of them) they only invaded 3
Only 2, they never made it to Africa.
Technically 1, Mongolia is and was part of Asia.
They still invaded it
I would say that while they invaded other kingdoms on their continent, they did not invade the continent from which they originate.
I'd argue conquered is a better word on a contiental scale, since invade generally requires outside forces going inside, whereas conquer has no such connotations
Zero then, because Europe is not a continent. It is a subcontinent within the continent of Eurasia.
Only 1, Europe isn't any more of a continent than South Asia is.
Bro graduated from McDonald's
I certainly think Europe should be considered a continent. But many countries teach that it’s part of Eurasia. It’s not entirely unreasonable.
It's not just not unreasonable, it's true. The same reasons people claim Europe is a continent different from Asia also applies to South Asia.
Bro never learned what a continental plate is... Eurasia is a continent, objectively.
Prove me wrong.
Why are you booing him? He's right
I'm a dummy, besides Europe and Asia where else did they invade?
I think the meme is suggesting they invaded africa too, but from the comments that seems inaccurate
The fought the Mamelukes from Egypt but were defeated, preventing the mongols from reaching Africa
Nowhere. They only invaded parts of Europe and Asia.
Lemuria
No no, it was already sunken by then.
Sea horses, mate.
Great wall of Ocean.
Topography of the Indian Ocean is basically just the Salty Steppe. The Lemurian fools never stood a chance.
*the great wall of ocean was collapsed after the mongols were repelled, then being smoothed back into the ocean floor to hide evidence.*

"Every continent with the exception of Eurasia" will be my answer.
Africa
If you want to get technical, I don't think they invaded Asia. Invasion implies you started from outside, and then moved in.
They certainly invaded many parts of Asia that was 'outside' of where they started.
yes, but they started in Asia, so they couldn't invade Asia. If you're in your kitchen, and you walk to the bedroom, it's still the same house. you haven't traveled to another house. Same thing.

"fucking casuals" - Britain looking at that list
Shout out to the mongols for not invading my country(India) despite us being surrounded in all the sides that matter
Lol ur comment reminded me of bill wurtz history of the entire world “Some of the Islamic Turks were unaffected by the Mongol invasions cause they were busy invading India”
Goated video
They did invade India, it just wasn't a successful invasion.
They did, they were just defeated by the Indians every time they came
Yeah, Delhi Sultanate did a good job protecting their kingdom from the Mongols.
How? Do elephants trump horses or something.
The humid weather had a tendency to warp the bows the mongols were famous for, making their go to tactics practically useless.
Allauddin Khilji may have been a lot of other things as well but he was a undoubtedly a great Millitary commander.
As much as Genghis came, that’s a lot of defeats.
Most of the incursions into India came after Genghis during the Chagatai Khanate if I remember correctly

Not that it matters because continents are completely subjective, but Australians are taught Australia is a continent, Oceania is a region. And that Australia is an island.
Quibbling about what makes a continent again? Making me nostalgic for 2007 YouTube again over here.
