Also known as Eurasian

Eurasia is the combined landmass of Europe and Asia. Its steppe belt and trade routes linked empires across vast distances, enabling the expansion of nomadic powers such as the Xiongnu Empire and the Mongol Empire, and the exchange of goods and ideas through empires such as the Tang Dynasty, the Ilkhanate and the Ottoman Empire.
