Overextension played a significant role in the collapse of the Mongol Empire as they ventured to conquer vast territories that were challenging to control and administer. Their conquests stretched from China to Europe, resulting in an enormous empire that was difficult to govern effectively. Furthermore, the Mongols faced constant resistance from newly conquered territories and faced difficulties in managing such a diverse and vast empire.
The fragmentation of the Mongol Empire also contributed to its collapse. After the death of Kublai Khan, the empire was divided into several separate khanates, each led by a different descendant of Genghis Khan. These khanates often engaged in power struggles, warfare, and infighting, which weakened their overall unity. The lack of a strong central authority further exacerbated the empire's decline, leading to its eventual disintegration.
