[00:00:00]The Mongols didn't always need to attack cities. Sometimes, fear was enough. In the 1200s, Genghis Khan built the largest land empire [music] in history.

[00:00:10]His armies moved faster than anyone thought possible, crossing deserts, mountains, and frozen plains with terrifying speed. But the Mongols' deadliest weapon wasn't just their cavalry. [music] It was psychological warfare. Cities that resisted were often destroyed completely. Survivors spread horrifying stories of massacres, [music] burning walls, and entire populations erased in days. Soon, rumors traveled faster than the Mongol armies themselves. Some cities surrendered the moment Mongol banners appeared on the horizon. No siege, no battle, no resistance. The fear alone shattered kingdoms before the fighting even began.

[00:00:51]The Mongols understood something most armies did not. Terror could conquer faster than swords. And across Asia and Europe, entire civilizations collapsed before the first arrow was even fired.
