That is a good question!
You would think that being able to have many wives and take land for religious cause would have been suiting to The mongols for their raider like attitude. Similar to what the Turks adopted.
I'm not too sure, but it would make a killer alt his topic if the Mongols did convert to Islam instead.
I havent the slightest why they choose Christianity.

I don't know, maybe because they weren't a major contending force. They later adopted Islam after analyzing it's benefits.
They did attack eastern Europe a number of times.
Booze, same with Russians.

Many of the khans had Christian mothers and/or consorts, usually of the Church of the East.

That was the main church operating in the area along with Manichaeans. The area West is Jacobite territory.

Because they didnt reach the heart of christianity. Thats a thing you should thank muslims who fought in battle of Ein Jalut for, they did adopt Islam though
