At its height in the year 1279,

1279年、帝国が最大となったとき、

the Empire took up 16% of all of the land on Earth and

地球の陸面積の16%を占め、

was home to about one in every 4

地球上の四人に一人が住んでいた

humans on the planet.

全ての帝国がそうだったように、

Like all empires the Mongols came and went but what if

モンゴル帝国も栄えては滅びた。

suddenly the Empire was recreated

だが、もし、明日突然この帝国が再建されたら？

tomorrow.

そんなことはあり得ないということはさておき、 この仮説を広げていくこととする

This is an exploration of what this

これが、今の世界地図で、

hypothetically would look like if we can

これが、1279年、モンゴル帝の最大領域時代の地図だ

suspend disbelief that this could ever ever happen.

帝国は遠く韓国から現代のポーランドまで広がった

So this is a map of the

だが、うまくいけばもっと広かったかもしれない

current world and this is a map of the

帝国は二度にわたって日本に侵略を試みたが、

Mongol Empire circa 1279 placed on top.

二度とも、モンゴル軍が舟を使い船について喋ることに怒った天によって、打ち負かされてしまった

The Empire would stretch all the way

また、インドネシアにも一度侵攻したが、

from South Korea to modern-day Poland

13世紀のジャングルでゲリラ的な戦いは、

but it could have been even bigger if a

モンゴル帝国の主力には向かなかった

few more things have gone right for the Mongols.

帝国は西方でもパレスチナのガザや

They tried invading Japan twice

欧州ではオーストリア、北イタリアにも

but we're twice smacked down by some

後退前は攻め込む計画だった

angry weather who didn't think that it

なので、この地図は帝国が1279年に

was quite fair for the Mongols to be using boats.

史上で同時に支配したことのある最大領域である

And speaking of boats they

なので、これが現代に再建されたモンゴル帝国の国境である

also tried invading Indonesia once, but

28もの国々が全部または一部の

guerrilla fighting in the jungle in the

領域をこの

13th century wasn't exactly the biggest

醜悪なものにわたされ、この化け物の

strength of the Mongol Empire.

全人口は

They also pushed west as far as Gaza in Palestine

19億飛んで45万9000人で

and raided into Austria and northern

かつての如く面積でも人口でも

Italy in Europe before being pushed back.

最大の国家となり、

So, this map is the maximum amount of

およそ現代の4人に1人が、

land they ever controlled at one time in 1279

この帝国の市民となるだろう

So this would be the borders of the

13世紀の様に

modern-day Mongol Empire recreated today.

帝国内の上位15都市の内、

28 different countries would lose all or

11が中国に位置し、

some of their territory to this

それどころか、15都市の中で

monstrosity and the total population of this beast

アジアに位置しないのは

would be around 1,900,459,000

欧州のモスクワだけである

making it by far the largest country in the world in

三大都市はモスクワ、北京、上海となる

terms of both size and population just

そして、我々は遅ればせながらこの国の首都を

like the old Mongol Empire was.

決めなくてはならない

About one out of every four people in the modern

もしかしたら、論理的に

world would be a citizen of this Empire

現行の首都たるウランバートルでいいのでは

just like in the 13th century.

と考えるかもしれないが

And out of the 15 biggest cities in the Empire,

ウランバートルは

11 out of them would all be located in China,

1693年に建設されている

in fact only 1 of the 15 biggest

モンゴル帝国崩壊後のはるか後で、

cities would even be located outside of Asia, Moscow in Europe.

人口も130万人しかいない

the 3 biggest cities would be Moscow, Beijing & Shanghai

全モンゴルの現人口の半分で、

And we would need to decide on

その都市は

a capital for the country to get behind.

人口密度の希薄な土地に囲まれており、

You may think that a logical choice

帝国人口からとても離れている

would be Ulaanbaatar which is the

だから、最も筋の通った選択は

current capital of Mongolia,

恐らく、北京となるだろう

but Ulaanbaatar wasn't even

現行の中国首都というだけでなく

founded until 1693 long after the Mongol

モンゴル帝国の歴史的首都でもある

Empire had already collapsed and only

この男

has a population of 1.3 million people today,

フビライ・ハンの下でハンバリク（大都）として知られていた時のことである

or about half of all of Mongolia's

北京は帝国第二の都市となり、

modern population.

すでに中国の首都故に

The city is surrounded by extremely sparsely populated land and is

巨大なインフラがすでにある

is very far away from the rest of the Empire,

そして我々はもちろん命名しなおさなくてはならない この都市をハンバリクと。

so the most logical choice of a capital

ゴメンね、北京

would probably be Beijing instead

実際にこの帝国を形成する人たちについて言えば、

which not only is the current

帝国の66%、

Capital of China but was actually a

言い換えれば3分の2の人口が

historical capital of the Mongol Empire

漢民族となり、支配的なものとなるだろう

under this guy, Kublai Khan.

続く二つの民族は

Back when it was known as Khanbaliq.

ロシア人と朝鮮人で

Beijing would be the second

それぞれ人口の6%と4%を占める

biggest city in the Empire and has

残り28%は

enormous infrastructure already in place

無数の民族集団の坩堝となる

since it is already the Capital of China

とても笑えることに現代のモンゴル帝国の中で

and we would of course have to rename

モンゴル民族自体は

the city back to Khanbaliq.

全人口に対して、

*whispering* Sorry Beijing.

たったの0.16%を占めるに過ぎない

As for the actual people that would make up this Empire.

言語について述べれば、この国の51%のは

66% or two-thirds of the population would be

中国官話を話したり、理解したりするだろうし、

ethnic Han Chinese which would likely dominate the country

それは公用語になるか

The next two biggest ethnic groups would be the

少なくとも公用語の一つとなる

Russians & Koreans who would account

ロシア語はおよそ11%の人が理解し

for 6% and 4% of the

第二言語となる

population respectively.

中国の三言語、

And the remaining 28% would be

呉語、粤語、閩語は合わせて

a mix of dozens of different groups.

10.5%が理解する

Hilariously in the modern Mongol Empire,

次に来るのは

ethnic Mongols themselves would only

朝鮮語とウルドゥー語だ

account for 0.16% of the total population.

帝国は宗教的にも極めて多様性を有し

As for languages, about

帝国内に住む人達は、

51% of everybody in this country

結構なものと考えると確信する

would be speaking or able to understand

約58.5%の人が

Mandarin Chinese, which would likely

中国の伝統宗教を支持し、

become the official or one of the official languages.

一方でイスラム教スンニ派は

Russian would be understood by around 11% of

12.1%で第二の信仰体系となる

the country and would be the

仏教は

second-largest language.

その次で5.3%、さらに続いて

A combination of

キリスト教の正教が4.6%

three other Chinese languages known as

イスラム教シーア派が4.5%、プロテスタントが

Wu, Yue and Min combined would be

2.2%でカソリックが0.8%

understood by 10.5% of everybody

無神論者や無宗教が

and the next two biggest languages would

残り12%の人口を占める

be Korean and Urdu.

これが意味するところは

The Empire would also

現代モンゴル帝国は

be extremely religiously diverse and

最大のイスラム国家で最大の無神論国家で

surely everybody living inside would

第三のキリスト教国家であると

think that that's going to be just fine.

人口からいえる

About 58.5% of everybody would

モンゴル帝国は経済も巨大で

adhere to Traditional Chinese Folk Religions

名目GDPは17兆7780億USドル

while Sunni Islam would be the

つまり、この土地全部を抱えてなお

2nd largest belief system at 12.1% of the population

世界第二位の経済でしかなく

Buddhism would be next at 5.3% followed by

合衆国に次ぐままということだ

Orthodox Christianity at 4.6%.

人口当たりのGDPは9355ドルで

Shia Islam at 4.5%.

帝国の市民は

Protestants at 2.2% and Catholics at 0.8500:04:20,420 --> 00:04:22,460 Atheist and non-religious

世界の62番目に位置する

persons would account for the remaining

僅かに、マレーシアやメキシコに劣る

12% of the population.

最後に、

This also means that the modern Mongol

現代モンゴル帝国は

Empire would be the world's largest Muslim country,

613万1千人の常備軍人口を有すると推測され、

largest Atheist country

これが、モンゴルを圧倒的な世界最大の軍事国家としている

and 3rd largest Christian country by numbers of people.

この国が実際どう見えるか

The Mongol Empire would also have a very powerful economy

この政府がどう見えるか

with a nominal GDP of 17.778 trillion U.S. dollars

他国との外交をどう管理するか

which means that

長期にわたって存在できるかどうか

despite having all of this land.

それを考えるのは非常に楽しい

It would still only be the world's second-largest

これらの疑問に関しては別の時にしよう

economy remaining behind the United States.

なので気楽に答えを

The GDP per capita would be $9355

下の方に残していってくれ

meaning the citizens of the

It's fascinating to think what this

country would actually look like, what

would his government look like, how would

conduct its diplomacy with the rest of

the world and could it actually survive

for very long?
