The Last Princess of Royal Blood
Since he was put on blast by the Internet the other day and cancelled… never mind it’s been long established yes he was a brutal leader and “barbarian” we get it, we know, we’ve all heard it. Context wise keep in mind it was a different time a brutal time, most leaders were brutal however hands down many praise him as a god of sorts particularly in the mountainous regions of Mongolia they actually pray to him. It is worth mentioning he treated Women as well as animals well as per progressive Mongolian culture.. he obviously wasn’t totally hated as he had around a thousand children with numerous concubines, his grandson had 7,000 concubines therefore it’s no wonder 8–10 % of Asian Men hold the DNA genetic trait of a direct common ancestor aka you guessed it the man himself Khan and around 1 in 200 people of any Asiatic blood are directly descended.
Heirs are a different story however, I think there is only one last known heir descendent who is a Woman actually by the name of Tsetsenhanrui. She’s pretty elderly if she is still among us. There was a 2008 biopic on her entitled “The Last Princess of Royal Blood.” As you will see a life as an heiress to Khan didn’t leave her without great struggle because well the dynasty fell therefore there wasn’t much if anything to inherit.
Point is much like akin leader, Vlad Tepes, he is still thought of as a hero by Romanians and certainly Transylvanians by and large because he freed the people by driving the Turks out of their homelands- Genghis Khan is highly esteemed by many Mongolians and certainly in respects to his known descendants. He did do some good in his time… other than populating the planet and attempting to build a dynasty by having kids pop out like rabbits.. he did rescue his first wife who was kidnapped in battle, Khan did protect the merchants aka frequently nomadic peoples who were just trying to earn a living so they wouldn’t starve, essentially outlawed slavery, and saw people as human worthy of respect by earned merit not by Nobel birth. As a descendent I can’t say he was the greatest guy in the world if we’re talking about war and rule but he had his good progressive points. It was a complex era and time period.
