In the summer of 1227, Genghis Khan, at age 65, led his final military campaign against the Tangut Kingdom in northwestern China, commanding from horseback and personally directing battles before his death, which marked the end of an era that had created conditions for the first true globalization despite his destructive campaigns.

The Final Battle of Genghis Khan #history #military #shortsAdded:
The same man who destroyed 40 million lives also created the conditions for the first true globalization.
That contradiction is not a mistake in the historical record. It is who he was.
In the summer of 1227, Genghis Khan led a campaign against the Tangut kingdom in what is now northwestern China.
He was 65 years old, still commanding from horseback, still personally directing battles, and then he died.
What is strange is not that he died.
What is strange is everything that followed.
