The Mongol Empire and the North China Plane

There's a connection there's almost a line between those different groups leading up to the Mongols. And of course, that then gives us China today with all its problems with minority peoples on the borders who were incorporated by the matches. It's not only do they learn from the key towns learn from the Tang dynasty. The Mongols learn from the merchants and the Uighurs and also from their conquest in Central Asia. That does not come out in the textbook chapter. But what you do point out is that China that's so the state of so is paying subsidies to keep the peace with the people with the states in the north. Yeah, that was so right.
