Temujin

Examples of Temujin in the following topics:

• Genghis Khan

  • Before Genghis Khan became the leader of Mongolia, he was known as Temujin.
  • During this era, and possibly spurred by the capture of his wife, Temujin united the nomadic, previously ever-rivaling Mongol tribes under his rule through political manipulation and military might, and also reclaimed his bride from the rebellious tribe.
  • As Temujin gained power, he forbade looting of his enemies without permission, and he implemented a policy of sharing spoils with his warriors and their families instead of giving it all to the aristocrats.
  • War ensued, and Temujin prevailed, destroying all the remaining rival tribes from 1203–1205 and bringing them under his sway.
  • In 1206, Temujin was crowned as the leader of the Great Mongol Nation.
