Genghis Khan’s Reign of Terror

Did you know Genghis Khan killed 40 million people during his reign, which was 10% of

the entire world's population at the time. He built the largest empire in history

through absolute terror and brutality that would make modern war crimes look tame.

When cities refused to surrender, he'd order the complete slaughter of every man,

woman, and child inside. In Nishapur, his soldiers killed over 1.7 million

people in a single siege, stacking their skulls into pyramids as a warning to others.

He invented psychological warfare by driving refugees toward enemy cities to spread panic and

disease. His armies would force captured prisoners to march at the front of battle
