GENGIS KHAN
AND THE CONQUESTS OF THE MONGOL EMPIRE
In 1206 a Mongol warrior called Temujin was elected supreme head of the tribes with the name of Genghis Khan. Thus began the epoch of the great Mongol Empire which stretched from the Sea of Japan to the Adriatic: the greatest empire of all time. The arms of conquest (helmets, chain mail, arrows, grenades, swords) are testament to the great Mongol war machine which arrived at the gates of the Veneto and proposed to the Christian Europe an alliance against Islam.
