What Made Genghis Khan’s Cavalry Truly Unstoppable

Genghis Khan’s Mongol warriors conquered more territory in 25 years than the Romans did in 400. But what made his cavalry so devastatingly effective?

⚔️ Unmatched Speed & Mobility – Riding hardy steppe ponies, they could cover up to 100 miles a day!
🎯 Deadly Horseback Archery – Trained to shoot with pinpoint accuracy at full gallop.
🛡️ Psychological Warfare – Fear and deception were key weapons in their strategy.
🌪️ Brutal Discipline & Tactics – Organized in units of 10, 100, 1,000—flawless coordination in battle.

Was it sheer brutality, unmatched skill, or something else? Drop your thoughts below! ⬇️
