Why didn't Mongol Empire just conquer all of India? Did they fear the Indian warrior?

close
it was the tropical diseases that did them in
Central/Western Europe would have been a tougher nut to crack if you exclude bacteria and viruses
Japan similarly dodged a bullet thanks to the kamikaze

They occasionally raided cities such as Lahore, but avoided prolonged conquest because of monsoon cycles, and the fact that China was easier and closer to raid.

They literally lost to a Hindu eunuch who converted to Islam.
The Mongol Campaigns into India against Delhi Sultanate were more devastating that the Japanese Campaign of the Mongols.

India does not have jungles unless we're talking about Bengal or coastal India.

They did. It failed because North Western India is naturally fortified by the Hindu Kush mountains, but also has many defensive forts. Delhi Sultanate essentially annihilated the Mongol army.
>Farishta, a Persian scholar and historian of India writes:
>After the Mongols were defeated by the Sultan at the Ravi river, the Sultan ordered the Mongol prisoners to be transferred to Delhi, and to be slain, but the upper caste Hindoo soldiers of the Sultan refused, stating the the Mongols were a people of Dharma [likely a reference to Buddhism]. The Sultan thus ordered the lowest caste amongst the Hindoos, the Chāndālas, to serve as executioner of the captured 8,000 Mongols. The Chāndālas carried out the massacre without any hesitation, and a tower of skulls was erected to instill fear into Delhi's population that anyone who goes against the Sultan shall suffer the same fate as these Mongols.

In the end the Mongols themselves became part of the Ummah
They conquered 80% of Muslim world but converted to true faith

They wanted to convert to Buddhism. They did in their homeland and in places not dominated by muzzies since they weren’t outnumbered or put to the sword.

Because it's wrong. They conquered Tibet FFS and invaded India before conquering China through the Hindu Kush.

Also mountainous but to a lesser degree. That’s why Burma has a lot of ethnic groups.
