Biography of Genghis Khan
The old world had many great leaders. Alexander the Great,
Hannibal and even Julius Caesar met with struggle on their rise to
power. Perhaps Genghis Khan was the most significant of all these
rulers. To prove that Genghis Khan was the greatest ruler, we must go
back to the very beginning of his existence. We must examine such
issues as; Genghis¹s struggle for power/how his life as a child would
affect his rule, his personal and military achievements and his
conquests.
Genghis Khan was originally born as Temujin in 1167. He showed
early promise as a leader and a fighter. By 1206, an assembly of
Mongolian chieftains proclaimed him Genghis Khan. Which meant
Universal or invincible prince. This was a bold move for the assembly.
They obviously saw some leadership qualities in Genghis that others
didn¹t. When Genghis Khan was little, his chieftain father poisoned.
With no leader left, the tribe abandoned Genghis and his mother. They
were left alone for many years to care for themselves. Throughout
these years, his family met many hardships such as shortage of food
and shortage of money. Though unable to read, Genghis was a very wise
man. His mother told him at a very early age the importance of trust
and independence. "Remember, you have no companions but your shadow"

This quote was to mean to Genghis, don¹t put to much trust in
anyone, trust no one but yourself and if you must go your own way then
do so. In 1206, Genghis Khan proclaimed the ruler of Mongolia. Genghis
was a very respected leader. Like other leaders he knew what his
people wanted. They want everything that is good and nothing that is
bad. Genghis knew he could not promise this so instead he pledged to
share both the sweet and the bitter of life. Genghis did not want to
end up being poisoned like his father so instead he made alliances,
and attacked anyone who posed a serious threat. Through this method
of leadership, Genghis¹s army grew to the point where they were
unbeatable.
Genghis contributed alot of items to the chinese and even
western civilizations. Perhaps his greatest contribution was a code of
laws that he declared. Since Genghis couldn¹t read or write, these law
were documented by one of his followers. His laws were carried on by
people though the many generations to the point of still being in use
Many people ask “How Barbaric were the Barbarians”. The truth be told, the mongols were more barbaric than they were peaceful. They were able to conquer more than 4,800,000 miles of land using brutal and strategic military tactics, destroy and conquer cities, along with using extremely harsh punishments for their prisoners. Because of this, the mongols were able to stay in power for about 300 years. Many people believe that they mongols were more peaceful than they were barbaric because of how economically stable they were. However the mongols killed thousands and left millions terrified across Asia.
I am going to critically review a newspaper article on the death of Hamzah Khan from Bradford. I will discuss the main findings the research methodology and the way in which it may or may not be useful in the contribution to our understanding of child welfare. I will also include information on child abuse and on the different agencies. The newspaper article is called Hamzah Khan: the harrowing story of an 'invisible' child. (Pidd, 2013)
Trust is a trait one should obtain for the people they know are the most honest. To trust someone means to put ones full confidence and reliability on an acquaintance such as someone one is close with. In The Tragedy of Julius Caesar, Brutus, one of the leading characters put his complete trust in the people trying to tell him what he should believe. Brutus joined the conspirators to help take down Julius Caesar because he believed it was what was good for Rome based on what he was deceived. This resulted in the killing of Caesar and the death of himself and others. Not considering the right kind of trust in someone can lead to very troubling things. Cassius told a lie as if it was a truth so Brutus
Throughout the years many historical events have been created into TV shows and movies. Often times the movies or real life events are not always historically accurate to create a more interesting plot. The same applies Sergei Bodrov's interpretation of Genghis Khan’s life in the movie "Mongol". While many of the names, people, and events are accurate; there is a great deal of discrepancies portrayed throughout this film. Everything from dates to events has been exaggerated to make for a more interesting movie. Very little is known about the actual events of Temujin and Börte’s early life; most of what is known comes from The Secret History of Mongols (Cleaves).
Osama bin Laden was perceived to be a brave, intelligent, and independent man who always held a high standard for himself and the Muslim world. He was driven by the term jihad, which means “holy war”. People viewed him as a genuine professional that embraced all aspects of his culture. The Christian West is considered Islam’s main enemy due to the perceived belief that they oppose Muslims and their culture. Muslims believe that the Israelis are trying to oppress them by claiming their rightful land, Palestine. This did not settle well with Osama and he would not stand to not do anything about it. As years went on, every decision he made was based off of his life and faith. Through radicalization, exile from homeland, and anti-western sentiments, Osama bin Laden built the terrorist organization known as Al- Qaeda.
Genghis Khan, born Temujin in 1162 AD was known as the Great Unifier for the Mongols. The Mongols were nomadic people that originated from what is today known as Mongolia. Khan, whose name means ‘Universal Leader’ is known as the founder of the Mongol’s empire before his death in 1227 AD. He started by conquering most of Asia such and pretty much all of China. During this expansion, while the Mongols conquered these places, they did not yet occupy any of them. It was more like unifying the world, or as much of it as possible, under one banner. However, the Mongol expansion, like everything in this life, had consequences. One of its most dire one was the reopening of the Afro-Eurasian trade routes and starting trading again. That is a dire consequence
Genghis Khan was a great ruler of the vast Mongol Empire. We chose our topic because Genghis Khan was great leader who lead the Mongolian empire to great success. Our interests were pulled to him, because he had used tactics that no one had thought of, and he united the nomadic tribes of the mongolian plateau. His strategies were little bit questionable, but he used them to build a massive empire that spanned across the Asian continent.
Beginning in 1211, Genghis Khan and his armies fled from Mongolia and swiftly conquered most of Eurasia. The Great Genghis Khan died in 1227, but his sons and grandsons continued the expansion of the Mongol Empire across Central Asia, China, the Middle East, and into Europe. Starting in 1236, Genghis Khan's third son Ogodei decided to conquer as much of Europe as he could and by 1240 the Mongols had control of Russia, Ukraine, Romania, Bulgaria, and Hungary.
At the time Genghis Khan had died in 1227, he had unified the Mongol people, made an increasable army of fearsome warriors. Furthermore more only had one goal, and it was to conquer all the world. He setup with sped and divesting ruthlessness, the Mongol Empire created a worlds largest Empire. Furthermore the legacy of Genghis Khan was the that he was a fearsome Leader, he is remembered today for having the most sustainably large Empire that covered approximately the land mass of 24 million square km2/ 16% of the worlds land mass.
In the film Mongol, the characters go through a series of adventures that lead to the beginning of the Mongol Empire. As the film first starts out a young boy named Temudgin, goes to find his bride from the Merkit clan. His father is the khan leader of a different tribe, and is taking his son to choose a bride from the Merkits as a peace treaty for stealing his wife from them years earlier. As they go on the long journey to the other tribe, they stop in a smaller one. There Temudgin falls in love with a girl called Borte and chooses her as his bride, knowing that this would make the Merkits upset. The father even though he did not want this, allows it and is proud of his son for making his own decisions. Throughout the film Temudgin and Borte
Trusting someone is such a fragile thing, a thing that could break someone to pieces and make them remember it for life. The same goes for rules, you see them every day in life. At work, school, basically all of life is based around rules. One thing to remember about following the rules is honesty, another is feelings, and the last one would be thinking of your choice. These things are important so you can keep trust with everyone you know. The one’s you know meaning family, friends, peers, teachers, and bosses. You might not think about it at first, but they give you trust so you can expand what you do in regard to them. These things are not as simple as you may think, they all have cons, but over time they usually turn into pros.
Muhammad ali is one of the greatest boxers ever. Many of us have heard of him.
This book is about a Biography of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). The biography of the Prophet is a very noble and exalted subject by which Muslims learn about the rise of Islam, and how Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was chosen by Allah to receive the divine revelation. From the reading I realize that, we know more about seerah (the history of our prophet) and it benefited us. From the reading also I can develop the proper love of Muhammad (PBUH) in my hearts. As we know loving prophet Muhammad is ‘Ibadah. It is part of our religion to love Muhammad. The Ummah today loves Muhammad If you ask any Muslim “Do you love prophet Muhammad ?”, they would say yes. So even though the Ummah today with the shallow information that the masses of Muslims have about him, still love him, but we cannot truly have deep love for Prophet Muhammad ( unless we are like companion did. Through the book also make me more understand and acknowledge the struggle and sacrifice of the Companions for the sake of establishing this religion and the hardships that they went through. Hence, this understanding should lead us to love them, and follow in their footsteps, for they were the best of all generations. From this books also, I learn that to have a good attitude in every single behavior. Many examples of good characters of our prophet that have been discuss in this books, such as his kindness, trustworthy, his wisdom and others. What I get from this book are also make more easier to understanding Qur’an. There are some verses in the Quran that are independent of the circumstances of revelation. Like for example, the ayat about the hereafter. These are independent of the circumstances. But then there are some ayat that are dealing with events that were happeni...
I have always had a hard time learning how to trust people. The one person I found that I could trust with everything was my sister Brittany. I could always go to her and let her know if I had done something wrong. She would assure me that she would not tell anyone if I didn’t want her to. I knew all my secrets would be safe with her and that nobody would find out unless I told them. This was very important to me because I haven’t had very good luck in finding people whom I can trust. Brittany has never told anyone a secret that I told her. Knowing that I could trust my sister with anything helped make our relationship stronger.
