Genghis Khan, the renowned and legendary leader of the Mongol Empire, is easily one of the most fascinating and notorious figures in all of world history. Known for his unparalleled conquests and terrible brutality, he united countless tribes, marching them across vast stretches of Asia and Europe and conquering one of the greatest empires ever known.
His name alone evokes amazement and leads us to imagine a powerful and ruthless leader, even his soldiers, feared by all. But little is generally said about the experiences of those ordinary Mongol soldiers who served under Genghis Khan. Becoming a warrior in this nomadic empire meant that military service was a way of life for all men over the age of 15. From that age and probably until death, you were a Mongolian warrior, one of the most successful warriors in ancient history.
