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 ?

Once domesticated they were really useful. They took the roll of a lot of stuff we only really got during or after the industrial revolution:
* Motorbikes
* Cars
* Trucks
* Tractors
* Stationary Motors
If you have something that solves a lot of your problems and you can make more of it, why wouldnt you?
The biggest issue with horses is upkeep. You need to feed them care for them. But if your society is adapted to horses you get benefits from scale.
From there you can trade them to other nations or bring them with you when you colonize/conquer places and spread them around the world.
