Genghis Khan
In the last 50 years, I believe the internet has had the most impact on the world. The internet has changed the way we communicate, research, advertise, and shop. It has also been one of the most quickly advancing inventions ever made.

Since the invention of the telephone nothing has compared in the field of communications. With the introduction to the internet brought a new wave of communicating. From chat rooms to email and instant messaging, the internet has provided the world with a whole new way to stay in touch with family and friends and even make new ones.

Internet has also made great strides in the way the world researches and studies. There are numerous sites on almost every topic possible. More and more students rely on the internet for research papers and school projects. Books are being pushed aside for the quick reliable sources found on the internet.

Companies are always looking for a place to advertise. The internet is the perfect source. Almost every site includes banners and pop-ups from advertisers. They use it as a new way for media to reach out to the public. Luckily for them it has been a great way to draw in consumers.

There are various online shopping sites. One can buy anything from groceries to clothing to patio furniture. Many retail stores, such as Sears, have opened online stores in order for consumers to be able to shop their store from home.

The internet has become a necessity now more than a luxury. It has had a great impact on our world. Students can use it as a reliable source for their school projects; advertisers, as a source for marketing; and consumers as an easier way to shop. Over the past 50 years this invention has truly left

    Many soldiers fighting in World War One at one point had to face trench foot. Trench foot is a fungal infection brought about by a prolonged exposure to wet, cold conditions like what there was in the trenches. It was first thought up by military authorities that soldiers that did not have very much morale got the fungal infection. If the trench foot turned gangrenous then the leg would have to be amputated. The officers tried to combat it by telling the soldiers that they had to dry their feet if they got wet and change socks multiple times a day.…

    The name of Genghis Khan is often associated with destruction, although the image of Genghis Khan has been rehabilitated somewhat in the west. The western world, saturated in media distortion and a reluctance to accept changes in perceptions of history, has been rather averse in accepting Genghis Khan's activities as pivotal in world history and the shaping of the modern world. Thus, the publication of Jack Weatherford's book, Genghis Khan and the Making of the Modern World, is a welcome addition to the literature on the Mongols.…

    Genghis Khan, or Ghengis Khan as he is more widely known, was born about the year 1162 to a Mongol chieftain, Yesugei, and his wife. He was born with the name of Temujin, which means 'iron worker' in his native language. When Temujin was born his fist was clutching a blood clot which was declared an omen that he was destined to become a heroic warrior.Very little is known of Temujin until he was around age 13 when his father declared that his son was to find a fiancée and get married. After several days of travel Temujin and Yesugei came across a tribe of Mongols that were very hospitable and welcoming. Temujin was not there long when he noticed a certain girl, Borte the daughter of the chieftain. She was destined to become his wife. Temujin's father died when Temüjin was still young, poisoned by a group of Tatars. The Tatars were the chief power on the eastern Mongolia at the time, and long- time rivals of the Mongols. When Temujin heard how his father had died, vowed one day to avenge the death.…

    Changez Khan was born in 1162 at Mongolia. His father Yesukhei was the chief of the minor Borijin clan of nomadic Mongols, who lived by hunting. His mother’s name was Hoelun. He was given the name Temujin. Mongol legend says that the baby was born with a blood-clot in his fist, a sign that he would be a great warrior. When Temujin was nine, his father took him to a neighboring tribe to work for several years and earn a bride. On the way home, Yesukhei was poisoned by rivals, and died. Temujin returned to his mother, but the clan expelled Yesukhei's two widows and seven children, leaving them to die. They were left alone for many years to care for themselves. Throughout these years, his family met many hardships such as shortage of food and shortage of money. Though unable to read, Genghis was a very wise man. His mother told him at a very early age the importance of trust and independence. "Remember, you have no companions but your shadow". Young Temujin and his full brother Khasar grew to resent their eldest half-brother, Begter. They killed him; as punishment for the crime, Temujin was seized as a slave. His captivity may have lasted more than five years. He was married at the age of sixteen to a slightly older girl named Borje. At the age of 27, by 1206, an assembly of Mongolian chieftains proclaimed him “Genghis Khan”. Which meant Universal or invincible prince. Within five years, the Mongols had annexed much of Siberia till Afghan border, modern China and captured every Khwarizm city, adding lands from Turkey to Russia. In 1222, the 61-year-old Khan called a family conference to discuss the succession. His four sons disagreed over which should be Great Khan. As a compromise, the third son, Ogodei, became successor. Jochi died in February 1227, Ogodei took East Asia, which became China, Chagatai got Central Asia, Tolui, the youngest, took Mongolia proper and Jochi's sons got Russia and Eastern Europe. Genghis Khan died on August 18, 1227, and…

    Temujin was born in 1162, near Lake Baikal and Khaldun Mountain in present day Mongolia. He was born into the Mongol society. He was the son of Yesukai, his father who was a Mongol chief of a region between the Amur River and the Great Wall of China, and Ho'elun, his mother. Temüjin began his gradual ascension to power by offering himself as a holder of land by feudal tenure on conditions of homage and allegiance*, or a vassal, to his father's anda, sworn brother, Toghrul, who was khan, or lord, of the Kerait. Their relationship was reinforced when Temujin’s wife, Borte, was captured by the Merkits. Temüjin turned to Toghrul for support. Without hesitation, Toghrul offered Temujin twenty thousand Kerait warriors to his disposal. The campaign against the Merkits was completely successful and Temujin was reunited with his unscathed lover, Borte.…
