Answer 1

The Mongol Empire collapsed for a number of reasons. The Mongols were nomads whose customs were suited to a nomadic life and raiding, not to governing a large sedentary empire. The Mongols in distant khanates were minorities, and many Mongol rulers in these places adopted the religion and customs of their subjects. Some places, such as Russia, cooperated with their Mongol rulers, but others rebelled, and the empire eventually fell apart.
