| Interesting name .... Khan, Afghan warlord. Any relation to Genghis? Kublai? | |
| Genghis Khan's tomb location is still a mystery to this day. In the years 1229-1235 after his death, his eldest son, Ogodei, was elected next Khan. He invaded and conquered the Southern Song Empire. In 1241-1248, Genghis' son Guyak, was elected next Khan. In the years 1251-1258, Genghis Khan's grandson, Mongke, was the next elected Khan. He conquered the Muslims. In 1259-1264, Mongke died in the first Mongol defeat, which was against Japan. 1267, Kublai, Genghis' grandson was elected Khan. In the two following years, (1268, 1269), Kublai built a new Chinese capitol, Daidu. In the time period 1274-1281, Kublai Khan conquered Japan, then lost it back. In that same time period, Kublai died of old age. In the sad year of 1368, the great Empire of Genghis Khan, came to an end.
