I think the term 'species' refers to human beings, and not only the Mongols. For the time, and until the British Empire, the Mongol Empire was the largest for several centuries. All those lands were under Mongol control.

I've been reading Alan Furst's novels about WWII. Seems that the Russians (Soviets) were using Mongol soldiers even then, and they scared the pants off of their enemies even then.
