Turko-Mongol Emperor: GenghisKhan (1)

Reading Genghis Khan from Objective Sources:

Much has been written and told about Genghis Khan and the Mongols.  You've probably read a lot of them, you know. If you are aware, most of the Western sources that tell the story of Genghis Khan have a policy of telling us as barbarians all those who came out of Asia in order to make their historical leaders heroes. While  sanctifying their own robber, genocidal conquerors, they preferred to write in a show that they did not value the heroes of the East so much.

For this reason, some Western sources have not hesitated  to declare Genghis Khan the greatest murderer, pervert and barbarian in history with irrational accusations.

Some Arap historians have taken the side of the Islamic  Caliphs  who succumbed to  Genghis  Khan and used similar expressions to Genghis Khan as  western historians.

Of course, the empire of Genghis Khan, which reached the greatest geographical boundaries of human history, was the greatest empire in history, and what can be said about Genghis Khan, who founded this empire, can be positive and negative.

I believe that what was written about Genghis Khan and the Mongols, who made the Christian world, the Russian and Arab worlds tremble during the 13th century, should becarefully examined and it should be taken into consideration that they may be biased.

The warrior, combative, visionary perspective of Genghis Khan, who established magnificent states and empires for each of his children and grandchildren separately,  deserves to be examined well in every period. For this reason, it is  essential to try to understand this organized success under the leadership of Genghis Khan and its results from the writings of other reliable historians who describe it in the closest way to the truth. Genghis Khan, who is of great importance especially in terms of the history of Turkey, is not a leader to be ashamed of for us.

If we are not ashamed of 500 years of European history of robbery, massacre and genocide,

 If we are not ashamed of some of the massacres of the Terrorists in the Arab invasions,

20.ve if we are not ashamed as a person of the history of British, American and Israeli occupation, attack, genocide and robbery in the 21st century,why will we be ashamed of the historical facts left behind by Engghis Khan?

Genghis Khan: The Wolf of the Steppes

Genghis Khan is one of the most important people in history, first and foremost in leadership and management.  I will try to convey to you my article about this historical person in five parts. I wish you to read patiently, to approach this issue objectively, to compare it objectively, with European history, Arab history, Russian history and foreign policies.

In 25 years, the Mongol army dominated more territories and communities than the Roman Empire had conquered in 400 years. When the number of societies Genghis Khan defeated, the countries conquered and the total area occupied are calculated, it is seen that he conquered more than twice as many places as the greatest conquest in history. GenghisKhan wasfamous as a great warrior who managed to win almost all his battles. The empire of Genghis Khan became an empire that covered an area of about 30 million k ilometers adjacent to each other during its most powerful period (another source says that  this empire ruled in a geography of 22 million kilometer square meters). The area covered by the Soviet Union for a period of time was 22 million 400 square kilometers. The vastness of Soviet territory can give us an idea of the empire of Genghis Khan. 

The rule of Genghis Khan stretched from the snowy mountains of Siberia to the wheat fields of Hungary and Poland, from Korea to the Balkans.  Today, 30 different countries and more than 3 billion people live in the lands conquered by Genghis Khan.  The most striking, most surprising aspect of his success was that the number of Mongol people of his own lineage was less than 1 million.  Out of these 1 million people, he formed an army of no more than 100 thousand people.

Genghis Khan's armies 13. He fought for a century. This army caused the borders of the whole world known at that timeto be redrawn. Its architecture was not made of stone, but of nations.

He united all small countries to form large countries.  The empire of Genghis Khan established a new world order by uniting and mixing the many civilizations around it. Already at this time, most of the peoples of China and Europe were unaware of each other.

He Established a New World Order:

In such a world, he conquered the lands that continued from the Sea of Japan to the middle of Europe with his sons, established diplomatic and commercial relations and connected the people living in these lands. While destroying the feudal system that gave privileges to the aristocracy, Genghis Khan established a new unique system based on individual virtues, loyalty and success.

He lowered taxes for everyone.

It completely exempted doctors, teachers, priests, and educational institutions from taxation.

He had a regular census.  He founded the first international postal system.  Genghis Khan endeavored  to build an empire that sought to bring wealth to his people rather than building an empire that hoarded wealth and treasure.

He distributed the spoils obtained in the war fairly to everyone. Thus, at the same time, he paved the way for the commercial circulation of these goods and spoilsand the development of trade on the territory of the empire. He created an internationallaw of commerce and politics. Above all men, he recognized the Supreme Law of the Infinite Blue Sky. At a time when most of the rulers considered themselves above the law, Genghis Khan insisted on passing laws that equated the rulers with the shepherds.  He recognized religious freedoms over the territories he dominated.

And he demanded complete loyalty from the places he conquered.
