A song about the Mongol Empire

1. The Mongol Empire
By: Mikaela Anderson & Angela Zheng

2. Chorus
The Mongol Empire began in 1206
They conquered and caused cultures to intermix
They were big and powerful and also strong
Their empire flourished for so very long

3. 1st Verse
Temujin was the founder of the Mongol empire
And yet somehow he never did tire
He changed his name to Genghis
Or sometimes he’s also known as Chinggis

4. Chorus
The Mongol Empire began in 1206
They conquered and caused cultures to intermix
They were big and powerful and also strong
Their empire flourished for so very long

5. 2nd Verse
The Mongols developed a set of roads
While Chinggis came up with one of the world’s first law
codes
Territories soon became safe
For one to travel from place to place

6. Chorus
The Mongol Empire began in 1206
They conquered and caused cultures to intermix
They were big and powerful and also strong
Their empire flourished for so very long

7. 3rd Verse
They practiced religious tolerance
Other countries thought it was nonsense
And with this established structure
People could spread culture

8. Chorus
The Mongol Empire began in 1206
They conquered and caused cultures to intermix
They were big and powerful and also strong
Their empire flourished for so very long

9. 4th Verse
After Chinggis had died
The Mongols would decide
That his son would reign
And it would not be in vain

10. Chorus
The Mongol Empire began in 1206
They conquered and caused cultures to intermix
They were big and powerful and also strong
Their empire flourished for so very long

11. 5th Verse
A dude named Kublai would come
A great ruler of the Mongols he would become
His realm reached from the Black to the Pacific Seas
He was the first to conquer China in his family tree

12. Chorus
The Mongol Empire began in 1206
They conquered and caused cultures to intermix
They were big and powerful and also strong
Their empire flourished for so very long

13. 6th Verse
After disease and war, they were weak
More land they were not able to seek
Thus concludes the tale
Of the Mongol Empire’s long trail
