The spoils of the wars brought in revenue for the kingdom and displayed the military prowess of the state. However, these wars did not take place simply to further eco-political aspirations but more importantly, in the monarch’s expansionist view, he sought to destroy obstacles that would prevent him from being the sole power in all his conquered land. Many of these wars took place within the state itself, as there were several ruling families and warring factions with varying ideologies who all looked to be the only rulers of the state.

Genghis Khan was capable of being vicious enough to be victorious in battle, yet, clever enough to rule over a diverse empire larger than Rome.
