Part 81

Genghis Khan's historical background involves conquering vast territories, including the Khwarezmian Empire in 1220, and expanding his empire from the Caspian Sea to the Sea of Japan. His succession was contested, with his son Ogedei eventually named heir before Genghis's death in 1227, the cause of which is still debated. He is viewed diversely as a national father in Mongolia and a tyrant in formerly conquered lands.
