Pax Mongolica

Wikipedia link here
Supposedly a period of peace after the initial Mongol empire building.

It was said that a virgin carrying a sack of gold could ride unharmed from one border of the Mongol empire to the other.

Gold is heavy, the Empire was huge

History does not record the fair maiden's name,
but one can guess why remained one
