The original template is somehow too Mongol Empire-centric, i.e. reflecting only divisions from the style as in traditional Mongolian records. It should represent in a more world-wide view; just mention the early Mongol Empire and its divisions. On the other hand, the divisions among Rise/Expansion/Pax/Decline is more superficial and Mongol Empire-centric. Considering the template later includes both officials from Yuan Dynasty in China and Ilkhanate in Persia, we can just mention them directly. Of course this does not mean they were not considered part of Empire for Mongols, but the original template mainly appears from the Mongolian-centric viewpoints. --Enchyin (talk) 05:29, 6 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
