Why didn't the mongols conquer india? Did they fear the poo warrior?
I believe most steppe peoples were either confederates in a pan-steppe tribe like the Huns or Genghis Khans mongols or fuckhuge groups of people migrating because of other steppe people

Once that happens there's nothing you could do to stop it. You're country is dead. The mongols-timurids destroyed Persia and settled Azerbaijan and Bukhara with Turkmen tribes. The timurids ruined Assyria and settled Kirkuk with Kurds. They turned Anatolia into a tribal 3rd world area. Somehow Russia survived unharmed even after their cities got sacked.

Russia is much further away than Persia is and was poorer at the time. Less incentive to colonize it.

Turks became the standard-bearers of Persian culture and ensured the spread of Persianate society from north India to Anatolia. The Turks were such Persiaboos that their rule saw the death of literary Arabic in Iran, safe for in religious circles.

The only way to control them is through divide and conquer. Or in Han case, just genocide them, but eventually some other steppe niggers will come along.
And when your Dynasty get balkanized the steppe niggers get a change to grow strong.
