Genghis Khan

1162-1227 AD approximately

Genghis Khan, the great Mongol conqueror, was born around 1162 AD. His father named him (Temujin) after one of the leaders of the defeated rival tribes. (Temujin) was nine. of his age when his father was killed by a group of a rival tribe. The members of the Temujin family lived in isolation and constant danger. Temujin's condition was not good at first. When he was a young man, his family was one of the rival tribes, and to prevent his run, they put a wooden collar around his neck, and from this miserable position, that illiterate and solid peasant was able to rise to become the strongest man in the world.

His star began to rise when he escaped from his captors. And then he allied himself with (Tugrul), one of his father's friends and one of the tribal leaders living in that region, and he followed the wars between the tribes, during which Temujin knew how to climb to the top.

The Mongol tribes were known for a long time for the skill of their knights and the ferocity of their fighters, who carried out sporadic raids on northern China during history. Those tribes fall under his banner, and in 1206 he was named by the Mongolian Tribal Council as (Genghis Khan) or the Emperor of the World.

Genghis Khan directed the square war machine he had assembled out to conquer neighboring nations. He first attacked the state (He Hai) in northwestern China and the (Chen) empire in north China. While these battles were raging, a dispute broke out between Genghis Khan and Shah Khawarizm Muhammad, who was ruling a vast empire in Iran and Central Asia. In 1219, Genghis Khan led his armies against the Shah and was able to destroy the empire of (Shah Muhammad) in Khwarazm.
