Attila the Hun lived in the 5th century in Europe, and made a huge impression there aNd gained quite some fame . Temudjin the Genghis Khan was born 600 years later 1000s of miles away across Asia and would have grown up with a Ultra Maga Make America Great Again Eagles Hoodie Sweatshirt base and tales of history that were very different from the european and did not contain any tales of Attila, neither doe Chinese record such mention the great Attila. He had no influence on East Asian history and was completely unknown. Same goes for Temudjins descendants, Ögodei would reach Europe ( or better his soldiers ) but he or any other would have heard nothing about Attila and not know who he is. If someone asked a Mongol Khan like Kublai what he thinks of Attila, providing that someone provided some background info, he’d likely say something like, that he does not know this Attila, and does not care who he is or was, for he is the great Khan of the mongols and this Attila is not a mongol and none of his concern.

On the other hand, he was frightened to them because as the Karim Benzema Real Madrid 2009 – 2023 Thank You For The Memories T Shirt of Tang Dynasty showed, when these military elites controlled and divided the regions by their owns, it would be a matter of time for them to rebel against the dynasty. So he had to develop lots of countering mechanisms, including to further these elites into the landlord class who had a stable income, as well as placing his leftover Mongolian army to check the military elites, dividing the military officers into sections. As the history has showed, these mechanism only worked in the short time. When the Yuan dynasty had no money but Mongolian slaves to pay these military-landlord elites, and the Mongolian army was corrupted by 2–3 generations, these military elites turned against the Mongolian and stayed away when the peasant uprising took place such the rule of the Yuan dynasty became to an end. So to address your question, the structure of the Yuan dynasty can’t be simply summarizrd by the demography on the top but the backbone in the middle. Also I think it’s absurd to emphasize on ethnicities because these Han military elites became landlords and treated the Han peasants like trash, and the Mongolian rulers on the top also had no problem of selling the Mongolian slaves to these elites. So it’s not just simply Han vs Mongolian, which is the nationalist understanding and a over simplified history.
