Mongolians are mainly known for their horsemanship rather than their marksmanship. They are probably the best marksman on horseback that have ever lived, but as far as historically being known for their archery.....that's the Koreans, and they're still pretty dominant in the Olympics.

P.s. yes, mega kilometers squared is not a unit anyone is comfortable with

P.p.s no, the irony is not lost on me
