Reign of Chinggis Khan (may 8, 1162 – jan 7, 1227)
Description:
Temujin took the title Universal Ruler, which translates to Genghis Khan, and he addressed his joyous supporters thanking them for their help and their loyalty. Like peoples elsewhere, Genghis Khan's subjects saw themselves at the center of the universe, the greatest of people and favored by the gods. They justified Genghis Khan's success in warfare by claiming that he was the rightful master not only over other people but the whole world Genghis Khan continued organizing.Added to timeline:
