He still made it to Eastern Europe
you sure about that? I’m pretty positive the farthest west ghengis got in his lifetime was when he conquered the khwarazham (sp?) empire which would put him controlling most of Pakistan, Afghanistan and parts of modern Iran and maybe Iraq. Still impressive but not quite to Europe. I can’t remember when they conquered modern turkey. I do believe he moved north and conquered or more likely simply consolidated voluntarily some of modern Russia and states such as modern Kazakhstan and so forth. Unless this is the area you are calling Eastern Europe which I still consider Central Asia which are at that point is just semantics and we would be in agreement.

His army made it to Eastern Europe within his lifetime. He himself wasn’t there and relied on his generals, and they only turned back once they heard about his death.

I’m talking mostly about Russia here.
