The great Mongol leader Genghis Khan
was one of the great conquerors in the history of the world. Named "Temujin"
he was born to a leader of a small tribe in northeastern Mongolia. His father
was poisoned when he was about 10 years old. In 1206, Temujin
united the warring Mongol tribes and was proclaimed Genghis Khan
("universal ruler") of the Mongol chieftains. In 1207, Genghis
Khan led the Mongols on the first of the series of destructive, bloody invasions
that would result in the conquest of much of the Asian mainland, occupying
Beijing (Peking) in 1215. Extending their expeditions to the shores of the
Caspian Sea, the Mongol warriors penetrated the steppes of Russia and totally
defeated the Russian army by 1223. They did not, however, follow up their
victory with a conquest of the cities to the west; instead they returned
eastward. The empire established by Genghis Khan eventually extended from
the Pacific Ocean in the east to the Black Sea in the west. --- By:
