Ghengis Khan
Led by the legendary Genghis Khan (meaning Great Leader), an unstoppable force of horse-riding warriors moved across the Asian continent in the 13th century AD. During this time, the Mongolian (Brave) Empire was at its most powerful and would eventually become one of the widest-reaching and influential empires ever recorded. Of all their conquests, one stands out: The Battle of Zhongdu (meaning Central Capital). Which was captured on June 1, 1215, and is modern day Beijing, forcing the Jin Emperor Xuanzong to move his capital south to Kaifeng
