adventurous informative medium-paced

Awesome history. Had no idea Ghenghis had such a crazy origin story, and the “Mongol corporation” was wildly ahead of its time. Transition from invaders to governors was well established, honestly I wish there was more mention of where he’s getting the info, Secret History seems to cover the early years but I’d like to know more about how well-documented the inner workings of Mongol politics were!
