Q

Why did Genghis Khan feel the need to fragment the Mongol tribes into new social and military groupings?

A

The following reasons forced Genghis Khan to fragment the Mongol tribes into new social and military groupings:

  • Mongols were the inhabitants of the steppe region. They had their own separate identities. So in order to bring them in touch with other tribes, Genghis Khan took this step.
  • Mongols were courageous people. Because of this nature, Genghis Khan organized them into military groups and established a formidable army. A sound military organization could be very helpful in trade also .
  • Childhood experiences of Genghis Khan were also responsible for the fragmentation of Mongol tribes. Genghis Khan himself had to suffer a lot during his childhood.
