Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Mongols did conquer some parts of China, but yes, China as a whole was the last to be conquered!.

Other countries were conquered as a whole before the submission of the Chinese, even though the other countries were attacked later!.

The Chinese were impressive, weren't they!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

Genghis Khan first attacked and conquered northern China from 1209 to 1211, but not southern China!. Southern China was conquered by Kublai Khan, Genghis's grandson, but not until the 1270's!.

See " Conquests in Northern China" and then " Kublai Khan in China " in source!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I would like to add to Sode's answer!. The Song Dynasty was considered by people to be one of the the weakest, if not the weakest, of the Chinese Dynasties!.

The fact that they were able to hold against the Mongols that long show that the Chinese were indeed impressive!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
