Ege Mongol Tatar invasion. Mongol invasion test

Every cultured person should know the history of his people, especially since it is periodically repeated. The cyclic nature of history has been proven and argued. Therefore, it is important to know what happened in the native land, how it affected economically.

Unfortunately, history has often been changed or rewritten, so it is no longer possible to find out reliable facts. Let's talk briefly about the most important thing in the Mongol-Tatar invasion of Russia and its consequences in the formation of the state. The article briefly outlines the most important events of those times. Where to find all the nuances, we will tell at the end of the article.

Mongol-Tatar yoke

In 1206, Genghis Khan was recognized as the ruler by all the Mongols. He was a rather talented leader, as in a short time he assembled a strong, invincible army. The army conquered the East (China and neighboring countries), and then rushed to Russia.

On May 31, 1223, a terrible, crushing battle took place on the Kalka River, in which the united army of the South Russian and Polovtsian princes was defeated. However, a year later, Genghis Khan died, and his eldest son Jochi also died. As a result, until 1236 there was neither a rumor nor a spirit about the Mongols in Russia. However, soon Batu decided to continue to implement his grandfather's plan and conquer the same land from sea to sea (from the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic)

As soon as the thousands of troops of the Golden Horde set foot on Russian soil, pogroms and devastation of the land began. The Horde immediately began to burn villages and kill civilians. After the pogroms, only ashes remained, instead of cities or villages. Thus began the Mongol invasion of Russia.

Looking at the historical map for grade 10, you can see that the Mongolian army reached Poland, the Czech Republic, and then stopped, settled in place. Russian princes received charters allowing them to manage their estates.

In fact, the country continued to live its normal life, but now it was necessary to regularly pay tribute to the khan. Throughout the entire period of subjugation to the Golden Horde, there are several significant events. One of the key is. The official end of the Mongol-Tatar yoke dates back to 1480. More about the dates of the beginning and end of this historical phenomenon.

Reasons for the capture of Russia

The main reason for the spread of the power of the Horde was that the Russian principalities were disunited. Each of them pursued their own interests. This led to division, there was no single strong army.

The conquerors, on the other hand, had a fairly large army, which was equipped with the best weapons, which they borrowed, including from Northern China. The Mongols also had sufficient experience in conquering lands.

In the army of the Horde, each soldier was brought up from childhood, so their discipline and skill were at a high level. It was not difficult for the Mongols to get Russian lands.

Stages of the Mongol invasion:

Campaigns of Batu

  • 1236 - the conquest of the Volga Bulgaria.

The first campaign of Batu December 1237 to April 1238

  • In December 1237, a victory was made over the Polovtsians near the Don.
  • Later, the Ryazan principality fell. After six days of assault, Ryazan was wrecked.
  • Then the Mongol army destroyed Kolomna with Moscow.
  • In February 1238, Vladimir was besieged. The prince of this city tried to adequately repulse the armyBatu, but four days later the city was taken by storm. Vladimir was burned, and the prince's family burned alive in their shelter.
  • In March 1238, the Mongols changed tactics, they were divided into several detachments. Part went to the river Sit, and the rest to Torzhok. Before reaching Novgorod, the army of the Mongol-Tatars turned back, but in the city of Kozelsk they met strong resistance. The townspeople bravely resisted the army for seven weeks, but were soon defeated. The invaders razed the city to the ground.

The second campaign of Batu 1239 - 1240

  • In the spring of 1239, the Mongol-Tatar army reached the southern part of Russia. Pereslavl was defeated in March.
  • Then Chernigov fell.

In the autumn of 1240, the main forces of Batu's army began the siege of Kyiv. However, under the wise guidanceDaniil Romanovich Galitsky, for about three months the Mongol army managed to be held. The conquering troops still captured the city, but suffered heavy losses.

In the spring of 1241, Batu's army was about to march on Europe, but turned towards the Lower Volga. The army no longer dared to make new campaigns.

Effects

The territory of Russia was completely devastated. Cities were plundered or burned, the inhabitants were taken prisoner. Not all cities were restored after the invasion. The captured Russian territories were not included in the Golden Horde. However, tribute had to be paid annually.

Khan had the right to leave control to the Russian princes, giving them his letters-labels. The development of the economy and culture of Russia slowed down significantly. This happened due to destruction, pogroms, a reduction in the number of craftsmen or artisans.

Given the century in which these events took place, we can conclude that the development of the Russian state lags significantly behind European countries. Economically, the country was thrown back several hundred years ago. This was reflected in the further history of the country.

The Mongol yoke - fact or fiction?

Some literate scholars believe that the Mongol-Tatar yoke is just a myth. They believe that it was invented for a specific purpose.

It is impossible to imagine that the Mongols, who were accustomed to living in a warm environment, could withstand the harsh Russian winters well. It is interesting that the Mongols themselves learned about the Tatar-Mongol yoke from Europeans. The theory, archaeological data and conjectures say that something completely different could be hidden behind the Mongol-Tatar invasion.

For example, the mathematician Fomenko claimed that the Mongol yoke was invented in the 18th century. But this is all in the realm of fantasy. The city of Sarai-batu is currently an archaeological site and it is safe to say that there was a Mongol yoke.

True, the assessment of this yoke is very different for all historians. For example, academician Lev Gumilyov argued that the yoke is not a decline, but rather a cultural dialogue, a symbiosis of Russian Orthodox and Mongolian civilization, that the Mongols, they say, enriched Russian culture. This does not take into account the obvious campaigns of the Mongol troops against Russia as a punishment for the uprisings.

History says that Russia fought many wars and battles. There was an invasion of the Crusaders, Alexander Nevsky's struggle with them, other wars or tragic events. But the Mongol-Tatar yoke was one of the most tragic and lengthy incidents in history. It is an example of the fact that disunity within a country always leads to the victory of the invaders.

Knowing the historical past of its people, in what century the invasion took place, you can be sure that Russia will no longer repeat the mistakes that lead to tragic or fatal events that bring grief to the people and economic decline to the state.
