What best describes the term for "pastoral people" as it relates to the Mongol people and the Mongol Empire?

 The Mongols were originally pastoral people in Central Asia, generally living peacefully… until Genghis Khan came. Born Temujin, Genghis Khan (as he will come to be known) consolidated them into a fearsome fighting force that tore apart everything they came across.

As pastoralist people, the Mongols were already well acquainted with horses and bows, allowing them to travel quickly and cut a deadly path. Additionally, they also had siege weapons, which could bypass castle walls and cause destruction inside-- and once the Mongols were inside, they showed no mercy. The rumor of this wave of death spread past the armies, so by the time the Mongols arrived at their targets, many cities would simply surrender rather than fight.

This led to the largest contiguous land empire in the history of the world, conquering from Eastern Europe to (what would be part of) Russia to the Abbasid Caliphate to the mighty Song Dynasty. Pretty crazy, huh? And all from a little pastoralist people.
