Gary Arndt | Glassbox Media
About this episode

In the year 1162, in the Khentii Mountains of what is today Northeastern Mongolia, a baby by the name of Temüjin was born. 


He would go on to become the single greatest conqueror and establish the largest contiguous empire in world history. 


His empire would reverberate throughout history and is still being felt today, both politically and genetically.
