Hello, my name is Corey and welcome to the Mongol Empire Podcast. The mission of this podcast is to present an accessible and interesting investigation of how the Mongol Empire came into being, the people involved in its creation and organisation, the events that enabled the Empire to grow and the world contemporary to it. I make use of primary, secondary and archaeological sources to explore the themes and concepts behind the conquests, and bundled it all up in narrative history. We are currently exploring the growth of Mongol power after the Quriltai of 1206, but our journey started in the 11th century where we investigate the factors that contributed to the rise of the Mongol people.
