How did an exiled boy create the largest empire in history? This is the untold story of Genghis Khan. Born Temujin, he survived by hunting rats after his tribe abandoned him. He united the Mongols by promoting skill over birth and outlawing kidnapping. His army moved 80 miles per day using horse relays and adopted Chinese siege weapons. From 1206 to 1227, he conquered China, Persia, and Russia — 12 million square miles. He built the first postal system, allowed religious freedom, and secured the Silk Road. DNA shows 16 million people today descend from him. He died in 1227, buried in an unmarked grave.
