  8. Effects of Mongols • 1. The Mongol conquests opened overland trade routes and brought about an unprecedented commercial integration of Eurasia. The growth of long-distance trade under the Mongols led to significant transfer of military and scientific knowledge among Europe, the Middle East, China, Iran, and Japan. • 2. Diseases including the bubonic plague also spread over the trade routes of the Mongol Empire. The plague that had lingered in South China was transferred to central and north China, to Central Asia, to Kaffa, and from there to the Mediterranean world.
