And they didn't conquer America or Ireland.
I'll not bring up the Mughal conquest of India - Turko-Mongol state under Babur who was related to GK.
And even then the Mongols took - Georgia, Russia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Afghanistan, China, Korea, half of Turkey, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Manchuria, Tibet, East Turkestan, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Iran and Iraq. Most of which were a lot more vital an important then say Malaysia, Japan or the Philippines on the basis of the world trade routes at the time.

Compare the mongols under subudei with the legions under julius caesar and the Mongols would still win even if they are outnumbered 10:1.

Ten to one - they would have fled and hoped to have split of an enemy army.

And the "scarf wearing middle eastern people", better said the Turkic elites who ran the Middle East and Central Asia, were hardly push overs.

And the ONLY way the Mongols could beat the Romans is that the Romans come out and fight instead of staying behind their engineering works.
