Börte came from a powerful nomadic tribe and in many ways her marriage to Genghis Khan set him up to become the great conqueror we know. They married young and when they were twenty, he brought his new bride back to his camp. But their newlywed life was turned upside down when Börte was kidnapped. He formed important alliances to retrieve her and seek revenge. Once reunited, Börte became a key advisor to her husband as he laid the foundation of the Mongol Empire, establishing a dynasty that lasted for centuries.

Au XIVe siècle, la Horde mongole atteint son apogée. En dehors de la route sibérienne moins connue, la Horde évolue avant tout sur la route du Sud par terre et par mer, et celle du Nord. Deux axes qui se croisent naturellement, avec leurs propres particularismes : la route de la Soie allant d'Est en Ouest, et celle de la fourrure venant du Nord. Or, tout au long de ces deux axes, se développent des villes qui profitent du Grand échange mongol. Une croissance encouragée par la Horde, notamment sous le règne d'Özbek Kan. L'historienne Marie Favereau clôture ici le troisième volet consacré à la Horde mongole en se penchant sur les aspects économiques, religieux et culturels de ce peuple méconnu. Notre invitée : Marie Favereau est actuellement maîtresse de conférences à Nanterre. Elle a été membre scientifique de l'Institut français d'archéologie orientale (2005-2009), boursière Fulbright et membre visiteur de l'Institut des études avancées de Princeton (2009-2010), chercheuse et chargée de cours à l'université de Leyde (2011-2014). Elle a obtenu son doctorat en histoire à la Sorbonne-Paris IV et à l'Università degli Studi de San Marino en 2004. Elle est l'autrice de La Horde d'Or. Les héritiers de Gengis Khan (La Flandonnière, 2014) et a coécrit la bande dessinée Gengis Khan (Fayard-Glénat, 2014). Elle vient de publier aux éditions Perrin La Horde, comment les Mongols ont changé le monde (432 pages, 25€).

Dans la seconde moitié du XIIIe siècle, la Horde mongole arrive à s'emparer des marchés les plus lucratifs de la vallée de la Volga. Dès lors, l'ensemble géographique dominé par les successeurs du grand Gengis Khan ne cesse de se développer sur le plan commercial. Afin de désigner cet essor du monde marchand, les historiens ont utilisé le terme de pax mongolica. Est-ce que ce terme est juste ? Combien de temps dure cette prospérité ? Sur quels ressorts se fonde la domination mongole ? Comment le règne de Möngke-Temür se distingue-t-il durant ce véritable âge d'or ? Quelles sont les caractéristiques et la nature des relations entre la Horde et le monde occidental ? Dans ce deuxième volet de nos Cours d'Histoire, Marie Favereau décrit l'incroyable "grand échange mongol". Notre invitée : Marie Favereau est actuellement maîtresse de conférences à Nanterre.

Ni empire, ni État-nation, ni État dynastique, la Horde constitue une singularité dans l'histoire eurasiatique. Longtemps déconsidérée, la structure politique créée par les conquêtes de Gengis Khan est aujourd'hui réhabilitée par l'historiographie. Comment, dans ce cas, définir la Orda ? Comment ce peuple est-il passé de quelques milliers de personnes à des centaines de milliers en l'espace de trente ans ? Quelles sont les sources qui nous permettent de mieux saisir la réalité mongole ? Quels étaient les espaces de domination de ce peuple et peut-on d'ailleurs parler de domination dans le sens classique du terme ? Au cours de cette émission, nous voyons que cet univers singulier est incompréhensible sans une vision globale, prenant en compte des dimensions à la fois politiques, économiques et sociales ; un monde en constante mutation, qui transcende la division classique entre la période médiévale et les temps modernes.

"La horde : comment les Mongols ont changé le monde" aux éditions Perrin. Entretien avec Yann Dejugnat.

Cent quarante-neuvième numéro de Chemins d'histoire, vingt-neuvième numéro de la quatrième saison, émission animée par Luc Daireaux Émission diffusée le dimanche 16 avril 2023 Thème : La Horde et le régime jochide, du XIIIe au XVe siècle Invitée : Marie Favereau, maîtresse de conférences à l'université Paris-Nanterre, autrice de La Horde. Comment les Mongols ont changé le monde, Perrin, 2023 (1ère édition en anglais, en 2021).

Marie Favereau is Associate Professor of History at Paris Nanterre University. We discuss her book The Horde: How the Mongols Changed the World, which was shortlisted for the Cundhill Prize for the best history writing in English. The Khanate of the Golden Horde was the empire ruled by Chinggis Khan's descendants in Russia and Central Asia. Marie explains how the Mongol Empire was unique, the values of a nomadic civilization, and the Horde's impact on Euroasian trade and cultural exchange.   Books recommended by Marie: Korea and the Fall of the Mongol Empire by David Robinson   The Secret History of the Mongols

Les Mongols s'étendent sur un large territoire eurasiatique au 13ème siècle. Cependant, ils ne doivent pas être limités à leurs aptitudes guerrières. Dans cet essai novateur, Marie Favereau parle de "grand échange mongol" pour décrire le commerce qu'ils ont contribué à bâtir sur des milliers de kilomètres de route, avec les peuples conquis du Caucase et d'Europe de l'est et leurs partenaires italiens, allemands et mamelouks. En nomades, les Mongols n'ont pas cherché à administrer directement ces populations mais ont inventé un nouveau système politique tenant compte des hiérarchies locales. Une spécificité qui explique que leur héritage perdurera bien après le reflux géographique de l'empire mongol.

Founded by the infamous Genghis Khan in 1206, the Mongol Empire created the 2nd largest kingdom in the history of the planet. What's less well known is that Mongol rule ushered in a plethora of technological innovation and development that shaped the formative years in trade & science infrastructure of a land mass spanning all the way to the East from Korea, through China, Central Asia, Russia, Persia and to even Eastern Europe parts like Crimea and modern day Ukraine. In an attempt to excavate and summarise the lasting impact the Mongol innovation, technology and governance had on the world, Empasco Partner Waheed Rahman (@iwaheedo) sits with historian and Financial Times best-selling author, Marie Favereau. Marie is an Associate Professor of History at Paris Nanterre University. She has been a member of the French Institute of Oriental Archaeology in Cairo, a visiting scholar at the Institute for Advanced Study, and a research associate at the University of Oxford for the major project Nomadic Empires. Her books include The Horde: How the Mongols Changed the World (https://www.amazon.com/Horde-How-Mongols-Changed-World/dp/0674244214) and the Mamluk Sultanate (published in French) and the graphic novel Genghis Khan. In the episode we cover: -the reason for the rise of the Mongol Empire in the 13th & 14th CE. -long-term innovation view that the Mongols took in terms of funding projects -the strategies they took to set up the agricultural production and taxation systems throughout the kingdom -how they built and sustained the system for continuous innovation processes in areas such as astronomy, agriculture, maths, medicine, trade, botany, etc. -Early forms of democracy in the Mongol empires - The reasons for the downfall of the Mongol empire Follow our host Waheed Rahman (@iwaheedo) for more updates on tech, civilizational growth, progress studies, and emerging markets.

Most of our understanding of the Mongol Empire begins and ends with Chinggis Khan and his sweep across Asia. His name is now included among conquerors whose efforts burn bright and burn out quick: Alexander the Great, Napoleon, and so on. Except the story doesn't end with Chinggis's death. As Professor Marie Favereau notes in The Horde: How the Mongols Changed the World (Harvard University Press: 2021), the empire that he built continued to shape, incubate and grow the political cultures it conquered. Even as the empire formally splintered, the ties that bound together the Mongols continued to play a critical role in the growth of new identities and cultures. More information can be found in Marie's article for Quillete: How the (Much Maligned) Mongol Horde Helped Create Russian Civilization. In this interview Marie and I talk about the empire the Mongols built: how it grew, what it covered, and how it changed. We discuss how the Mongols changed those they ruled and those they bordered against, and the geopolitical system they built.

Most of our understanding of the Mongol Empire begins and ends with Chinggis Khan and his sweep across Asia. His name is now included among conquerors whose efforts burn bright and burn out quick: Alexander the Great, Napoleon, and so on. Except the story doesn't end with Chinggis's death. As Professor Marie Favereau notes in The Horde: How the Mongols Changed the World (Harvard University Press: 2021), the empire that he built continued to shape, incubate and grow the political cultures it conquered. Even as the empire formally splintered, the ties that bound together the Mongols continued to play a critical role in the growth of new identities and cultures.

The Mongols are widely known for one thing: conquest. Through the ages, word "horde" has entered the English lexicon with a negative connotation, conjuring up images of warriors on horseback, sweeping across the plain--a virtual human flood destroying everything in its path and then receding, leaving a wave of devastation and grief. Such is often the popular perception of the Mongol empire under Chingghis Khan and his successors, who came to control much of Eurasia in the mid-thirteenth century. In the past few decades, scholarship has started emphasizing other aspects of the three hundred year Mongol project--after all, waves of destruction don't tend to also be referred to by names like "Pax Mongolica," or "the Mongolian Peace." In this majestic new study, Marie Favereau (Paris Nanterre University) takes us inside one of the most powerful sources of cross-border integration in world history. For three centuries, the Mongol Empire was no less a force for global development than the Roman Empire. The Horde--ulus Jochi, one of the four divisions of Chingghis Khan's Empire--was the central node in the Eurasian commercial boom of the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries. Its unique political regime--a complex power-sharing arrangement among the khan and the nobility--reswarded skillful administrators and diplomats and fostered an economic order that was mobile, organized, and innovative. The Horde: How the Mongols Changed the World (Harvard UP, 2021) is an ambitious, accessible, beautifully written portrait of an empire little understood tand too readily dismissed. Challenging conceptions of nomads as peripheral to history, Marie Favereau makes clear that we live in a world inherited from the Mongol moment.

This week, Danièle speaks with Marie Favereau about the myths and truths surrounding the Golden Horde, how nomadic people tend to be misunderstood, and how the Mongols changed the world. You can support this podcast on Patreon - go https://www.patreon.com/medievalists to learn more.

In the 13th and 14th centuries, the Mongol horde exercised control over an unfathomably large empire, spanning thousands of miles from Europe to Russia, Central Asia, and the Middle East. History has often not looked kindly upon these nomadic civilizations, which has led to some major blindspots regarding astonishing achievements, explosive growth in trade, commerce, and communications, and even a certain level of resilience and tolerance of governing very different and often opposing groups. Prof. Marie Favereau joins the Departures with Robert Amsterdam podcast this week to discuss her fascinating new book, "The Horde: How the Mongols Changed the World."  As Favereau argues in her book, the Mongol empire had its own unique political regime, including a complex power-sharing arrangement among the khan and the nobility which rewarded the best administrators and diplomats and fostered an economic order that was mobile, organized, and innovative. The success of this empire provided a early governance model for Russia, influenced social practice and state structure across Islamic cultures, and disseminated a sophisticated knowledge of nature across vast territories. This enjoyable conversation with Favereau will make you rethink past assumptions about the Mongol empire, and better understand how it influenced the world which followed.

Dr. Marie Favereau is an associate professor at Paris Nanterre University. Her academic work has been on the Mamlukes of Egypt and the Mongol Golden Horde. Most recently, she is the author of The Horde: How the Mongols Changed the World. I recently reviewed it for UnHerd, What the Mongols did for us: The Golden Horde wasn't barbarous, it created the modern world. Dr. Favereau and I discuss the origin of the Golden Horde, the Mongols of the northwest who ruled much of Eastern Europe for centuries, and its evolution over several centuries. I was particularly curious about various things I've read about the Golden Horde in relation to other branches of the Mongol Empire. Was it the poorest? Was it marginal? Was it basically a Kipchak Turkic Khanate that had a Mongol veneer? There are many truisms that are punctured in this conversation. For example, though the Golden Horde was poor in people, it was rich in resources. On a per-capita basis, it's quite possible the Mongols of the Golden Horde were the richest west of China. The Golden Horde exported slaves to the Middle East and controlled the fur trade that had once been the purview of Novgorod the Great. The Golden Horde was not on the margins of world history but actually drove it. We discuss extensively the role of the Horde in shaping the orientation of Russia and Russian history. It is likely that the preponderance of the subjects of the Horde were Slavic-speaking Orthodox Christians, and the Mongols and the Princes of Moscow had a very productive relationship for centuries. The rewriting of this history has been one of the great projects of Russian nationalism over the last few centuries. Finally, we discuss future projects and avenues of research.
