The Mongols really were something. I mean look at the size of their empire at its height. Honestly, they weren't. All that they did was to sacrifice themselves or used completely barbaric methods like burning or ruining everything. Sooner, some Russian terrorists had become to blow everything, and the same is about the islamic predecessors who terrorised the others by taking into pits of disaster, etc. Briefly, the past actions/behaviour later discover itself. Probably, mainly Roman's army were quite noble, and some African ones, and some others also. As one Anglo-Saxon told me that "the iron of Anglo-Saxon had stopped the Mongols". It's like in the present times – "the iron" as "the power of electronics" keeps holding the ambitions of Mongols or Islamic terrorists. |

I mean, you can say that their methods were ignoble but they worked. Map doesn't lie. |

Stalin used to sau that eliminating a person is elimination of a problem. Terrorism also works. Anyway, I got your point. It's really a disaster that their methods worked. |
