Genghis Khan had such great leadership, that some of his followers viewed him as a god, although he worshipped Tengri, the god of Eternal Blue Sky himself. All countries, including Europe, feared the Great Khan in fear of his devastating might. After his death, the Mongols Empire started getting smaller and smaller, until eventually they forced back into what is now modern Mongolia. The Mongols believe that Genghis Khan would be reborn again, in hopes of him too once again lead the Mongols to great triumph and victory. Although the Great Khan passed away, he has left a great legacy. Genghis Khan brought improvements and advances in art, crafts, machines, a new language, and even created a new country in the process!
