The Mongol Empire, under Kublai Khan, launched two massive naval invasions of Japan with over 140,000 warriors, but both were destroyed by typhoons that the Japanese called 'Kamikaze' (divine wind), believing the storms were divine protection from their gods; these repeated defeats caused the Mongols to abandon their invasion plans entirely.

Mongols Got DESTROYED by Divine Wind Twice - Kublai Khan's Epic FailAdded:
Did you know the Mongols tried to invade Japan twice and got completely destroyed by typhoons both times? Kublai Khan assembled the biggest naval invasion force in history, over 140,000 warriors ready to conquer Japan. Then out of nowhere massive storms just appeared and obliterated his entire fleet right before they could land. The Japanese called [music] these storms Kamikaze meaning divine wind because they thought the gods were protecting them. This actually happened twice, same exact thing. The Mongols never tried again.
