This statement is showing the brutality and inhumane ways of dealing with people so I think this would work better on the uncivilized side.

Alauddin Khilji: The Mongols could have set India back 200 years in advancements but due to his success against them he preserved it. This shows the Mongols brutality by showing how they are able to destroy entire cultures and move on.

Alauddin Khilji: It was clear that he saw them as Uncivilized as he didn't fear them even after hearing all the bad things they have done

Alauddin Khilji: People told him about the brutality of the Mongols and how he shouldn't fight them but he ignored this all and still fought them going in with no fear which leads him to defend and defeat them protecting India.

They established the largest land empire ever by their great success in conquering

They practiced religious tolerance (didn't mind other religions)

They built roads, bridges, and postal stations. ( ex: extended grand canal)

They did not leave behind much architecture due to living in mostly tent-like structures traveling a lot.

The Mongols may have had major success but they were uncivilized due to the fact that they did not last very long.

One example of why the Mongols were uncivilized was that they lived in clan-based Barbaric societies.
