Genghis Khan created a large empire.
His parents were not ideal people.
'His father, Yesugei, kidnapped his mother, Hoelun, from her original husband.
'Yesugei and Hoelun then forgot the kid when they moved from one camp to another and didn’t get around to going back to retrieve him for a year.
'Yesugei’s fellow tribesmen then murdered him, threw out Hoelun, stole her animals and left her to starve.

Finally, the Crusaders laid siege to Foix. Already, its lord, one of the most loyal
vassals amongst the Counts of Toulouse, had complained to the third Lateran Council, that
the representative of God on earth, the Pope, was standing idly by while the people of
Provence, without any distinction made concerning their religious beliefs, had their throats
cut. Five hundred thousand had already succumbed to the blows of the crusading assassins.
The plaintive secured only a farewell benediction, given with a simple diplomatic smile. It is
impossible to describe here what the earldom of Foix must have endured in the way of
ensuing atrocities, despoilment and persecution by the pilgrims and their successors, the
Dominicans (read: the Inquisitors) who had been set up especially for the conversion (read:
extermination) of the Albigensians.
During this Lateran Council, the Count of Foix saw himself reproached for the fact
that his sister Esclarmonde was a Cathar of high rank and that she protected the heretics in
an unwavering manner. It was not his fault, reasoned the count, his sister could dispose of
her possessions as she thought fit and entertain her subjects as she wished. As far as her
beliefs were concerned, he had less chance and even less right to influence them. Besides
which, he held the deep-rooted conviction that everyone should be free to choose their
beliefs, whatever they were.
But from then on, everywhere in the country, masses were chanted in Latin, the
Provençal castles had been usurped by new masters, the conquered country obeyed the
French crown and the language of the victor, French, was imposed
Nazi superbunker that brushed off Tallboy bombs.
