Genghis Khan
(born
Temüjin
,
c.
1158
– August 18, 1227), was the founder and first
Great Khan
(
Emperor
) of the
Mongol Empire
, which became the
largest contiguous empire
in history after his death. He came to power by uniting many of the
nomadic tribes
of
Northeast Asia
. After founding the Empire and being proclaimed
Genghis Khan
(an honorary title ascending possibly from the
Turkic
"tengiz"
—
sea
,
[10]
meaning "the oceanic, universal ruler"), he launched the
Mongol invasions
that conquered most of
Eurasia
, reaching as far west as
Poland
in Europe and the
Levant
in the Middle East. Campaigns initiated in his lifetime include those against the
Qara Khitai
,
Khwarezmia
, and the
Western Xia
and
Jin
dynasties, and raids into
Medieval Georgia
, the
Kievan Rus'
, and
Volga Bulgaria
. These campaigns were often accompanied by large-scale massacres of the civilian populations, especially in the
Khwarazmian
- and
Western Xia
–controlled lands. Because of this brutality, which left millions dead, he is considered by many to have been a brutal ruler. By the end of his life, the Mongol Empire occupied a substantial portion of
Central Asia
and
China
. Due to his exceptional military successes, Genghis Khan is often considered to be the greatest conqueror of all time.
