126. How the Mongol Horde Changed the World: interview with Marie Favereau, historian

Marie Favereau shows how the Mongol Horde changed the world and world history in this special interview. It was not only the conquests of Genghis Khan, but his successors in the Horde, especially the Golden Horde. Their culture, skilful diplomacy and embrace of diversity were the real reasons the Mongol Horde changed the world. If you're interested in world history, then this podcast is for you! Marie Favereau shares her insights from her book, The Horde: How the Mongols Changed the World, the current exhibition at Musée d'Histoire de Nantes (Genghis Khan - how the Mongols changed the world), and her work with colleagues in Mongolia and Oxford on nomadic empires. Thanks to @chateaunantes44 and Musée d'Histoire de Nantes for opening video and music. Check out Marie Favereau's book The Horde: How the Mongols Changed the World
