| | | | | | Tus: Encyclopedia II - Genghis Khan - Modern Descendents A geneticist claims that Genghis Khan's 40-year policy of systematic rape of female prisoners led to 16m male descendants alive today who carry his chromosome.
Genghis Khan has been identified as the most successful alpha male in human history, according to a book by an Oxford geneticist.
The Mongol emperor inseminated so many women in his 40-year career raping and pillaging across Asia that he created a pool of at least 16m male desc ...

| | | | | Tus: Encyclopedia II - Mashhad - Current events In recent years, the event to have had the largest impact on Mashhad was the bombing of the Imam Reza shrine on June 20, 1994, killing twenty six and wounding many more. The bombing was carried out by Mr. Mehdi Nahvi, a member of the People's Mujahedin of Iran (MKO), an Iraqi-based opposition group which claimed responsibility. The MKO stated that the bombing was carried out to commemorate the anniversary of the group's founding on 20 June, 1981.
Mashhad once again came under the national spotlight in 2001 during the "spider serial killer ...

| | | | | Tus: Encyclopedia II - Genghis Khan - Uniting the Central Asian confederations Their main opponents were the Naimans to the west, the Merkits to the north and the Tatars to the east. By 1190, Temüjin and his advisors had united together the other steppe people. As an incentive for absolute obedience and following of his code of laws, the Yasa code, he promised civilians and fighters wealth from future possible battle.
Genghis Khan began his slow ascent to power by allying himself with his father's anda (sworn brother or blood brother). Genghis's ally was Toghril, Khan of the Kerait and better known by th ...

| | | | | Tus: Encyclopedia II - Genghis Khan - Birth and early life Little is known about his early years, but Temüjin was born sometime around 11621 in Hentiy, Mongolia. His birthplace was most likely the mountainous area of Burhan Haldun. He was the eldest son of Yesükhei, a tribal chief of the Kiyad. Yesükhei's clan was called Borjigin (Боржигин), and his mother, Hoelun, was of the Olkhunut tribe of the Mongol confederation.
Based on legends and later writers, Temüjin's early life was difficult. His father delivered him to his fut ...

The second largest holy city of the world, Mashhad attracts more than 12 million tourists and pilgrims every year, many of whom come to pay homage to the tomb of Imam Reza (the eighth Shi'ite Imam).

| | | | | Tus: Encyclopedia II - Mashhad - Culture Long a center of secular as well as of religious learning, Mashhad has been a center for the arts and for the sciences. The famed Ferdowsi University[1], named after the great Iranian poet, is located here.

| | | | | Tus: Encyclopedia II - Shahnameh - Sahnameh's Message Ferdowsi’s style is that of a superb poet. His epic language is so rich, moving and lavish that it truly enchants the reader. Personal touches in the Shahnameh prevent it from falling into a dry reproduction of historical narratives. No history has been so eagerly read, so profoundly believed, and so ardently treasured in Iran, as has the Shahnameh of Ferdowsi. If a history were ever to influence its readers, the Shahnameh has done and still does so in the finest way. Where many Iranian military and religious leaders failed, Ferdowsi succeeded. With the Shahnameh, the revival ...

| | | | | Tus: Encyclopedia II - Shahnameh - The historical age A brief mention of the Ashkanian (Arsacids) dynasty follows the history of Alexander and precedes that of Ardeshir the founder of Sassanid dynasty. After this, the Sassanian history is related with a good deal of accuracy. The fall of the Sassanian and the Arab conquest of Iran are narrated romantically, and in a most moving poetic language. Here, the reader could easily see Ferdowsi himself lamenting over this catastrophe, and over what he ...

| | | | | Tus: Encyclopedia II - Genghis Khan - Division of Mongol Empire into Khanates Before his death, Genghis Khan divided his empire among his sons and grandsons into several Khanates. These Khanates were sub territories and the Khans of these Khanates were expected to follow the Great Khan, who was Ögedei Khan.
Following are the Khanates in the way in which Genghis Khan assigned after his death:
Empire of the Great Khan (China) - Great Khan Ogedei Khan
Il-Khanate - Hulegu Khan
Mongol homeland (present day Mongolia, including Kharakhorum) - Tolui Khan
Chagadai Khanate - Chagatai Khan

| | | | | Tus: Encyclopedia II - Genghis Khan - Destruction and effects after conquests There are many differing views of the amount of destruction Genghis Khan and his armies caused. The peoples that suffered the most during Genghis Khan's conquests, like the Persians and the Chinese, usually stress the negative aspects of the conquest and some modern scholars argue that their historians possibly exaggerate the numbers of deaths.
Genghis Khan - Civilians.

| | | | | Tus: Encyclopedia II - Genghis Khan - Death and burial During his last campaign with the Tangut Empire during which Genghis Khan was fighting with the Khwarezmid Empire, Genghis Khan died on August 18, 1227. The reason for his death is uncertain. Many assume he fell off his horse, due to old age and physical fatigue; some contemporary observers cited prophecies from his opponents. The Galician-Volhynian Chronicle alleges he was killed by the Tanguts. There are persistent folktales that a Tangut princess, to avenge her people and prevent her rape, castrated him ...

| | | | | Tus: Encyclopedia II - Genghis Khan - His personality It is not entirely clear what Genghis Khan's personality was truly like, but his personality and character were doubtless molded by the many hardships he faced when he was young, and in unifying the Mongol nation. Genghis appeared to fully embrace the Mongol people's nomadic way of life, and did not try to change their customs or beliefs. As he aged, he seemed to become increasingly aware of the consequences of numerous victories and expansion of the Mongol Empire, including the possibility that succeeding generations might choose to live a ...

Genghis Khan - In most of the world.
Historians and scientists are looking into positive aspects of Genghis Khan's conquests. Genghis Khan, successor Khans and Mongols are credited to bringing the Silk Route back in full use and under one cohesive political environment. This allowed increased communication and trade between the West, Middle East and Asia by expanding the horizon of all three areas. Genghis Khan is widely becoming known for his advocacy of religious tolerance among his populace and also hi ...
