One of her ten favorite books, as shared at Vulture.com:Genghis Khan and the Making of the Modern World by Jack WeatherfordRead about another entry on the list.
When we think of Genghis Khan, we think of one of history’s most violent pillagers and rapists. But in actuality, Genghis Khan was a great democratizer. His Mongol Empire conquered more territory in 25 years than the Romans did in 200. His strategy was to kill off the aristocracy and envelop the lowest members of society into his army. He allowed former servants to rise in rank and gain status in his empire.
