    Wonderful picture, keep &#39;em coming.

    I really have to visit China some time; several of my housemates are Chinese and recommend it heartily.

    The Mongolians were indeed on the verge of conquering Europe. Horse-shagging bastards. ( :P ) Didn&#39;t their mega-leader-guy die just before the invasion or something? I&#39;m so darned ignorant...

    If i remember corectly they conquered most of the known world, the capital is Ulan-Baatar, ghengis kahn (sp?) was the leader, the whole steppes thing aswell, the Gobi desert is there, and the Gobi is the best place to find Dinosaur skeletons.

    iloveatomickitten is really the "man" to ask about this though

    I think it was Khan who managed to attack the Great Wall at the weakest point and defeat all the competing factions in China to unify China.

    Too bad having strong national defence tends to lead to xenophobia. (and there isnt too much I can think of xenophobic then building a wall around the whole country...) But I guess immigration was unheard of in those days anyways....
