A biography of the famous world leader Genghis Khan and his legacy.
Temudjin was born on the day 1162 by Burkhan Khaldun mountains and the Onon River in Mongolia. When he was born, history told that mongolians found Temudjin had a blood clot stuck on his fist. However in Mongolia, that was meant to be that Temudgin was destined to be a famous leader one day. Temudgin was his Yesukhei, his father’s third son. In history, Temudgin was named after a Tartar Chieftain and was maybe related to blacksmiths. Yesukhei’s clan was called Borjigin and they were all nomads with horses. Yesukhei knew his son was growing older so he though his son needed a wife. They went out to some other places to find someone to marry. Later on when they were traveling, Temudgin found a pretty girl named Borte he felt that he wanted to marry. Temudgin was happy to pick her and was told that he must return in ten years for their marriage. One day, Yesukhei was murdered by drinking poison from an offering from the Tartars and the Mongolians were in need of help. Temudgin swore to then avenge his father to find the Tartars. Then later on, there was another attack from the Tartars which they attacked the mongolians while they were unprepared. A Tartar saw Temudgin’s mother and was after him. Suddenly, they took her mother but did not kill Temudgin. It was said that the Tartars wanted Temudgin to grow up and have an even fight with them. Temudgin wanted the position to be “Khan” of the mongolians since he was te son of the leader but they wouldn’t accept someone so youthful. Borte was also taken from the scene with the Tartars. Needing more help from people, so then Temudgin offered himself as a allie to anyone. He met his blood brother Jamuka who gave him Temudgin twenty thousand men to get his wife back. While the tremendous fight had happened, Temudgin got his wife back. On the day Bekhter, his half brother was kill by Temudgin since they were only fighting over hunting spoils and that made Temudgin the head of the household. Soon, a incident with Temudgin’s father’s ally named the Bajartskular which attacked them and captured Temudgin. He was then put in a jail but he had a friend in there to help him get out in the dark night. By the time he got out, he went for a river’s crevice for a hiding spot which many people could not see him. To start and power a army, you needed men, so then Temudgin recruited Jelme and Arslan which would be his generals and some of his brothers. Some people knew now that he had been growing power which soon spread to the Bajartskular and suddenly knew of his escape. Temudgin was a leader of war for this is why he has been studying warefare, raids, and stealings since he had been a kid. His mother taught his about many climate and changes in Mongolia. After waiting all these years, Temudgin finally came back for Borte to marry her and they had four children. Temudgin had some very bad conflicts as with his blood brother Jamuka. Some of Jamuka’s men turned against him to join with Temudgin. For that made Jamuka angry to have several fights with Temudgin. Temudgin had less men but was indeed smarter while Jamuka had many more but was not as smart. During the battle, a thunder storm awaken, mongolians though thunder was the god being angry with them. As Temudgin had learned from his mother, he told his men not to be afraid of the thundr. Jamuka’s men were scrabbling everywhere and Jamuka was defeated. Temudgin always learned forgiveness and could not kill Jamuka but to let him go to be a nomad. However, with the army Temudgin needed, it was then time to conquer some land to start a civilization. Temudgin’s goal was to conquer all of China which no one had ever done before. Now his raid had just began. Every ten years, he conquered more and more land for he was a military genius. As time went by, more allies joined his ranks to help him. Time was going by and he was going older for it was gonna be the day where empire would stop. On the following day, he drink poison and died just like his father. Genghis Khan would never be forgotten even though he never achieved his goal.
