I recently watched a documentary about a brief history of each continent when I noticed horses were really common everywhere for an example Genghis khan in Asia, Saladin in Africa, natives in North and South America and all over Europe too. I know they’ve been brought with settlers to Australia because it was mentioned in the documentary but what about the other continents ?

Fun fact! Horses were not native to the Americas…kinda.
They were initially here several millennia ago, but went extinct around 10,000 years ago. Then they came back over with the Spanish and the various First Nation citizens found them very useful because they were so easily tamable.
