AKA: Genghis Khan
Years prior to gaining power:

His grandson, Temujin, was a member of one of the clans disputing Mongol leadership at the end of the twelfth century. When he had heard about his father’s death he tried to assume power in the clan that his father was the head of but the clan rejected him and his family to an almost refugee status.
