Eurasia · Animated schematic fronts

Mongol conquests

Expansion of the Mongol Empire and its successor states across Eurasia.

This war had no continuous front. The line is a schematic limit of advance and operations: it summarises campaigns and is not a trench line or an administrative border. The coloured areas are operational sides, not evidence of contiguous occupation; in-between frames are interpolated and closing edges are graphic. Two lines follow the expansion: westwards and, in China, southwards. They connect the reach of separate campaigns and are not a boundary of administration.
