If someone asks, which is the strongest regime that has ever appeared in history? I think the vast majority of people will vote for the British Empire on which "the sun never sets". There is nothing wrong with this choice. Britain was once all-powerful in modern history, conquering the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, India, Pakistan and many other regions in Asia, Africa, and America, and carving up China. But this does not mean that Britain had the absolute power to unify the world at that time. During the hundreds of years when Britain was strong, Spain and the Netherlands seized maritime power, Napoleon's First French Empire and the independence of the United States, and Germany in two world wars. At different times, Britain was conquered by powerful powers. The opponent is "death entangled" and it is not easy to unify the world.
So, has there ever been a relatively powerful regime in parallel time in history that had the power to unify the world?
I think the Mongol Empire (as it is called in Western history) has this strength. Since Genghis Khan established the Mongolian regime, this terrifying country has destroyed more than 40 countries and conquered more than 720 ethnic groups in 25 years. Its largest land area reached 40 million square kilometers. The Mongolian cavalry is invincible and frightens the world. . So why didn't such a powerful Mongolia unify the world?
This may have something to do with the name!
In 327 BC, the Indians shattered Alexander the Great’s dream of world unification. More than 1,000 years later, the Han people also accomplished such a feat. In 1259 AD, the Mongolian Khan Mengge died accidentally while attacking Diaoyu Mountain in Sichuan. His death completely changed the fate of Mongolia...
At that time, Mongolia's westward marching army was mainly divided into There are two, one is Hulagu's Western Expeditionary Army, whose main task is to attack the Islamic world. He defeated the Arab Empire, occupied Baghdad and Syria, and prepared to march to Egypt. The other is the Golden Horde army, whose main direction is to attack the Christian world. It has long had the upper hand in battles with Poland and Hungary. During this period, Mongolia initiated the "germ warfare" against the plague. About 20 million people died in Europe due to the "Black Death" in three centuries. The entire European population dropped by nearly 1/3, and everyone in Europe was panicked.
At this time when he was marching into Europe and Africa, Meng Ge ascended to heaven... There are different opinions on the cause of Meng Ge's death in history! However, Meng Ge's death may be related to his name. The Book of Changes pays attention to the eight-character numerology, whether the name is bad or good, in fact, there are hints in it.
The charm of the Book of Changes is that each square character not only has its own meaning, but also has its own special meaning induced by the Book of Changes. In many cases, the name will also affect the formation of a person's personality. As the saying goes, " His name is like his name." Therefore, a good name must use every word to mean auspiciousness. There are indeed many factors that need to be considered when naming a person. Not only do you have to consider pronunciation, glyphs and various taboos, but more importantly, you also need to consider the person's birth date. Therefore, it is better to find someone knowledgeable when naming your child. Nowadays, the more well-known website in this field should be the Zhouyi naming website. The Yi Xue naming method for Zhouyi naming: arrange the eight characters, look at the five elements, measure the five patterns, match the three talents, combine the zodiac signs, think about the meaning, listen to the music, and write the character shapes. The numerology of the five grids, especially the numerology of the main grid, should be auspicious. The configuration of the three talents must not conflict with each other. The five-part configuration occupies an important position in nomenclature. However, Meng Ge's name was not auspicious, and the three talents were in conflict with each other. He was ordered to invade the southwest and thus lost his life in the Kingdom of Heaven.
At this time Hulagu held heavy troops, so he had to go back to stabilize the situation in Mongolia. But on his way back east, bad news still came... His elder brother Kublai Khan and his younger brother Alibu had turned against each other in order to compete for the throne, and the Mongolian Civil War was about to break out. Although Hulagu had a very good relationship with Kublai Khan in private, he was embarrassed and embarrassed when faced with such a situation. In the end, he made a difficult choice to support Kublai Khan. However, the other three khanates including the Golden Horde supported Ali Buge, so the Golden Horde mobilized its army from the European front and aggressively suppressed Hulagu's Il Khanate, hoping to force Hulagu to only verbally Support Kublai Khan.
Hulagu was forced to withdraw his troops from Egypt and return to defense. After that, the Mongol Empire was divided into parts. The various khanates began to shrink their defenses and no longer had the momentum to advance westward.
