"And tidings will terrify him from the east and from the north, and he will go forth in great wrath to destroy and to exterminate many." ~ Daniel 11:44
”Genghis Khan born Temüjin and occasionally known by his temple name Taizu (太祖), was the founder and Great Khan (emperor) of the Mongol Empire. The Secret History of the Mongols reports that Temüjin was born with a blood clot grasped in his fist, a traditional sign that he was destined to become a great leader. Temujin’s mother Olen taught him many lessons, especially the need for alliances. He came to power by creating a unified confederation from the tribes of northeast Asia. After founding the Mongol Empire and being proclaimed ‘Genghis Khan,’ he administered the Mongol invasions that resulted in the conquest of most of Eurasia. His descendants went on to extend the Mongol Empire which spans the Caspian Sea to the west, the Strait of Hormuz and the Arabian Sea to the south, the Sea of Japan to the east, and across most of Eurasia, the Middle East, and South Asia by conquering and/or creating vassal states out of India, Korea, the Caucasus, Central Asian countries, and substantial portions of modernday Eastern Europe, Turkey, Russia, Persia, and the Middle East. In the Middle East and Iran, he is almost universally looked on as a destructive warlord who caused enormous damage and destruction to the population of these areas. In much of Russia, Middle East, Korea, Ukraine, Poland, and Hungary, Genghis Khan is credited with considerable damage, destruction, and loss of population. Mongols destroyed and annihilated all of the major cities of Eastern Europe. Present-day Mongolians regard him as the founding father of Mongolia. Today, the population of the Khan Dynasty is substantial with descendants stretching to the four corners of the earth.”
