From the transcript
Born in 1162, as Temujin Genghis Khan had a rough start, kidnapped with his wife, betrayed by his brother, and left with just a handful of followers. Life seemed pretty grim, but Temujin had other plans. Uniting the scattered Mongol tribes, he built a fearsome army, and unleashed it on the world.
Within a few years, the once powerless boy became Genghis Khan, the universal ruler of the Mongol Empire. This unstoppable force conquered everything in its path, from China to Persia, and even parts of Eastern Europe. Genghis Khan was no ordinary conqueror, though he had a knack for innovation.
His empire was a meritocracy. Oh, his skills, triumph, noble birth. He encouraged trade, built a postal system, and even adopted new technologies from the lands that he conquered.
