Which country has the largest territory in history?
The country with the largest territory in human history is not the Roman Empire, the British Empire or the Russian Empire, but the Mongolian Empire established by Genghis Khan, the Mongolian hero of the Chinese nation. Genghis Khan and his descendants fought fiercely for 70 years, destroying more than 40 countries, conquering more than 720 nationalities and establishing the largest country in human history-the Mongolian Empire. Its stable period covers an area of more than 35 million square kilometers, and the shadow empire stepped out by Tieqi covers an area of more than 44 million, accounting for more than four-fifths of the whole human world at that time. Now the land area of Asia (including all islands) is only 44 million. The Mongolian nation has shown the world the most powerful vitality of the Chinese nation. The Diaoyu Islands incident in this period has also become the only event in the history of the Chinese nation that changed the course of world history. Genghis Khan was born in a noble family in Mongolia. When he was young, his father was poisoned, and his mother spent several years with Temujin and his brothers. The experience of difficulties and obstacles in his youth cultivated Temujin's resolute and brave qualities, which enabled Temujin to rise from suffering and gradually assume the heavy responsibility entrusted to him by history: to turn him from a leader of a weak tribe into a generation of arrogant people who unified Mongolia, unified China and conquered Eurasia. Genghis Khan is an unparalleled war genius. He will fight every enemy, and the magic of winning the war will consume human military talent to the extreme. Genghis Khan fought countless battles in his life, and he never lost, except for actively retreating because of the disparity in strength in the Battle of the Thirteen Wings. ""His fighter planes, sweeping, smoke spread to Russia, Afghanistan and northern India. In the vast Eurasia, Genghis Khan has become an invincible god, and all his opponents are frightened and bow down. " "What person can be called the god of war? Only Genghis Khan! " Even the defiant military genius Napoleon lamented Genghis Khan. Although scholars from different countries have different opinions on Genghis Khan, they all agree on two points: Genghis Khan is the greatest success in the world and the person who has the greatest influence on human history. At the end of last century, the United States, Japan and other countries launched a campaign to select great men in the Millennium, and Genghis Khan was listed as the "first man in the Millennium" in the selection results. Genghis Khan left a national pride to future generations. Genghis Khan not only occupies an important position in the history of China, but also is a hero with world influence. Western scholars call Genghis Khan "the emperor of all mankind". Genghis Khan laid the foundation for the reunification of China, and his descendants completed the great cause of reunification. 12 1 1 year, all parts of Xinjiang belong to Chinese territory; From 65438 to 0247, Tibet became an inalienable part of China territory for the first time. 1276, Yunnan's long-term separatist regime was ended ... Since then, China, which has been divided for more than 400 years, has achieved its fourth great reunification and truly entered the world stage. Dr. Sun Yat-sen said: "Throughout history, almost the whole of Europe was occupied by the Yuan Dynasty, which was far more powerful than China's most prosperous period. "Genghis Khan made an immortal contribution to the reunification of China. It can be said that without Genghis Khan, there would be no Chinese territory today. Historian Chen Gaohua put it well: "Genghis Khan's great achievement lies in adding luster to the history of China. "Later, after the third great reunification of China, the Tang Dynasty contributed to the territory of China. China split after the collapse of the early Tang Dynasty. China split after the collapse in the mid-Tang Dynasty. China split after the collapse in the late Tang Dynasty. The Mongol Empire perished. It was a powerful Arab Empire that existed for more than 500 years, defeated the army of the Tang Dynasty and ruled for a period of time. It is unprecedented in human history to connect eastern and western civilizations in this land. The globalization of mankind began in the Mongolian Empire. The Mongolian people have made great contributions in the history of human development and laid a solid foundation for China's vast territory. In the course of the expedition, the Mongolian Empire constantly absorbed outstanding generals from other nationalities to enrich the Mongolian army, especially promoted and appointed a large number of Han generals. The war thought accumulated by the Chinese nation for thousands of years reached its extreme in the battle of the Mongolian Empire. At that time, the smartest and most advanced nation in the world and the nation with the best physical quality in the world achieved a perfect combination.
