PLEASE MARK ME BRAINLIEST IF I HELPED

The Steppe, belt of grassland that extends some 5,000 miles (8,000 kilometres) from Hungary in the west through Ukraine and Central Asia to Manchuria in the east. Mountain ranges interrupt the steppe, dividing it into distinct segments; but horsemen could cross such barriers easily, so that steppe peoples could and did interact across the entire breadth of the Eurasian grassland throughout most of recorded history.

Nonetheless, the unity of steppe history is difficult to grasp; steppe peoples left very little writing for historians to use, and Chinese, Middle Eastern, and European records tell only what happened within a restricted range across their respective steppe frontiers. Archaeology offers real but limited help (grave relics from chieftains’ tombs abound but, of course, say little about everyday life and leave political, military, and linguistic alignments to inference). As a result, until about AD 1000, information concerning the rise and fall of steppe empires and the relation between events in the eastern and western portions of the steppe remains fraught with great uncertainty.

Physical And Human Geography

Physical features

The lay of the land divides the Eurasian Steppe into two major segments. The first of these may be called the Western Steppe. It extends from the grassy plains at the mouth of the Danube River along the north shore of the Black Sea, across the lower Volga, and eastward as far as the Altai Mountains. The conventional division between Europe and Asia at the Ural Mountains is completely meaningless for steppe history and geography. The grasslands extend continuously south of the Ural Mountains on either side of the Ural River. The Western Steppe therefore constitutes one vast region, some 2,500 miles from east to west and between 200 and 600 miles from north to south. Within its bounds, a vast sea of grass made cross-country movement easy for anyone with a horse to ride. Rivers and streams cut through the grasslands, with trees growing along the banks. Streams flow slowly, trending, for the most part, either north or south and providing an easy mode of transport by river boat in summer and by sleigh in winter. Consequently, animal caravans and river transport made the steppe accessible to commerce even before modern roads and railroads transformed travel conditions.
