Half of the mongol empire was taken by his grandson kublai. You are way overselling the amount of work ghengis did in his lifetime

From the start of this thread, people have conflated Ghengis himself with the entire Mongol conquest, probably bc Ghengis is the only well known khan. If I recall, Ghengis himself focused only on China and Central Asia.

He still made it to Eastern Europe. He took about as much territory as possible within his lifetime not being born with an army. Alexander got a head start.

Subatai reached the Danube River in Europe. Subatai was a general under Ogedei Khan, Genghis Khan's son. Historians agree that if Ogedei didn't fall ill and die, the Mongols would have reached the Atlantic.
