The reason why I say this is because Genghis Khan was such a powerful person whenever he took over a territory anything he said goes he doesn't even purse policy. Khan was a very ruthless person because of killing, which he has a reputation for, but for some reason he was very confident in killing because that's what kept him in power for so long. “With no hesitation, the imam told Genghis Khan that he was killing so many people that there might not be anyone left to remember his name” (Weatherford Modern World pg 129) Because he often would take care and protect the wealthy people and he would often let the political people stay in office even when he took over their territory. “Genghis Khan had often protected the rich and even rulers to stay in office after he defeated them” (Weatherford Modern World pg112) Genghis Khan death occur in which his son Ogodei has gotten elected into being the emperor of the Mongols and in which he actually was more appreciated by the people because of the things he did such as gaven people silk clothes, given the mongol a capital, and paid full high prices for good and trades.

    Compare and contrast the roles of Confucianism and Buddhism in both China and Korea until roughly the 7th century Introduction East Asia is the largest emerging economy of the world at present, and this phenomenon can be traced back to its cultural, demographic, political and social traditions and identities.
