Campaign Vectors of the Mongol Conquests, 1206–1294
Source-to-objective vectors of the principal Mongol campaigns, by khan.
A representative set of campaign vectors drawn from the Mongol conquests, each rendered as an arc from the launching base to the principal objective and attributed to the directing khan. Arc width encodes the nominal size of the host. The compilation is illustrative — assembled by hand to exercise the engine's flow cartography — rather than an exhaustive order of battle.

A hand-assembled, representative dataset (not an exhaustive corpus): launching bases, objectives, dates and nominal host sizes are drawn from standard narrative accounts of the Mongol conquests and simplified for cartographic illustration of source→target flows.
