The Dothraki horde went through them like the Mongols through central Europe.

The Mongols never went "through" Central Europe. They did enter the eastern part of Central Europe, and won several battles, but Batu and his western Mongol army withdrew without reaching Vienna, because there was to be a new Khan decided upon in Mongolia. As was customary in Mongol military tradition, all princes of Genghis's line had to attend the kurultai to elect a successor.

They did go through China, Eastern Europe, Persia (killed everyone they could find, destroyed the cities), and what is today Pakistan (killed every man woman & child and leveled every building in the great city of Lahore).

However, they were later defeated by the Vietnamese, by the army of Delhi, by the Mamelukes of Egypt, and later by the Poles (who had learned how to fight them by the time of the Mongols third attack through Eastern Europe.

In 1285 Nogai Khan led an invasion of Hungary alongside Talabuga. Nogai lead an army that ravaged Transylvania with success: Cities like Reghin, Brașov and Bistrița were plundered and ravaged. However Talabuga, who led the main army in Northern Hungary, was stopped by the heavy snow of the Carpathians and the invading force was defeated near Pest by the royal army of Ladislaus IV and ambushed by the Székely in the return. Nogai's own column suffered serious casualties at the hands of the local troops (Saxons and Vlachs), and was harried on his withdrawal by the royal army, fresh from their victory over Talabuga. As with later invasions, it was repelled handily, the Mongols losing much of their invading force. The outcome could not have contrasted more sharply with the 1241 invasion, mostly due to the reforms of Béla IV, which included advances in military tactics and, most importantly, the widespread building of stone castles, both responses to the defeat of the Hungarian Kingdom in 1241. The failed Mongol attack on Hungary eliminated its military power and caused them to stop disputing European borders.
