Based on the description of the map, the country that the Mongols were unable to conquer is Japan. While the Mongolian Empire stretched across a vast area of northern Asia and into Eastern Europe and the surrounding regions, Japan remained largely unconquered by the Mongols, particularly due to natural barriers like the sea and the failed invasions known as the Mongol invasions of Japan in the late 13th century.
