Genghis Khan or Chinggis Khan

The Mongol Empire was formed in 1206 under Temujin’s /Chinggis Khan/ command and based on his Hamag Mongol uls. The Empire which was the result of Chinggis Khan and his companions’ fifteen years of intense fights and works was the dream come true for generations of Mongols. The new empire inherited the cultures and statehood traditions from their ancestors Hunnu, Syanbi, Nirun etc states.

During its relatively short period of existence, the Mongol Empire developed its society, cultures and traditions at an incredibly great extent. It also illustrated that how different nations around the world can live in peace all together and gave the first ideas about globalization. Herein, the founder and commander Chinggis Khan’s role is certainly dominant.

Chinggis Khan spanned the territory of Mongol Empire up till Caspian Sea on the west, Pacific Ocean on the east. These invasions are not just the result of bloody fights, but also there were some amount of support from local residents of those states, who wanted peace and security.

Chinggis Khan convened the “Ikh Zasag” law, which later became the backbone of Mongolian and some other Asian and European statehood traditions, in 1206’s Ikh Khuraldai /convention/. He passed away n 1227. At that time, the Empire was at its peak of developments. In 1259, when Monkh Khan died, the empire was divided into four Khanates.
