Jah Will Appear Soon

Some of the northern Ah Nehs have Mongol blood in them... descendants of the Mughals, from the second son of Genghis Khan.

Third son formed the Yuan dynasty in China. He was the 元太宗.

First son (and grandson) invaded Europe.

Youngest son's son (grandson) conquered Persia (Iran).

Wah, you are inviting Jah to appear.

Jialat liao.

Re: Probably

Aryan /ˈɛərjən/ is an English language loanword derived from the Sanskrit ārya ('Noble').[1][2][3] In present-day academia, the terms "Indo-Iranian" and "Indo-European" have, according to many, made most uses of the term 'Aryan' minimal, and 'Aryan' is now mostly limited to its appearance in the term "Indo-Aryan" for Indic languages and their speakers.


These people had the earliest civilisation just after Egypt's. Famous people like Adam or Noah probably came from that region. These Middle East peple were dabbling with technologies, science, medicines, arts, literatures, etc. that influences the west later on.

kublai captured xiangyang after 10years seige with the help of muslim arab engineers who built the counterweight trebuchet which launch projectile heavy enough to bring down the city wall.

The Spirit Of Genghis Khan

[video=youtube;vnOLbHoSlMw]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vnOLbHoSlMw[/video]


Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia (CNN) -- In the vast open steppe outside Mongolia's capital Ulaanbaatar, the great emperor Genghis Khan is very much alive.

His giant statue hovers for as far as the eye can see. But this is more than a monument: This is the very embodiment of the spirit of a man whose life and legacy are both a link to a glorious past and an inspiration for the spiritual and economic renewal of this country.

People flock here in their thousands each day to feel the emperor's presence and revere his memory.

"I come here every few months to pay respect to our great emperor," one man told me. "He conquered the world. I don't say my son should grow up to be as powerful as Genghis Khan but he must have his spirit as a descendant of Genghis."

Geneticists say almost one in ten men in Asia carry the DNA of Genghis Khan.

Not surprising, considering Genghis Khan and his descendants conquered much of China, Russia, central Asia, Europe and the Middle East. It is still the greatest land empire the world has known. In 25 years, the Mongols captured more land than the Romans managed in 200 years.

But in recent centuries, Mongolia itself has been ruled by China and the former Soviet Union, when mention of Genghis himself was banned.

Not any more, and his name now is now synonymous with the economic rise of a new Mongolia. But in the rush for riches there are those left behind who struggle to lift themselves above the poverty line. To them Genghis is more myth than reality.

To the mongols all they have is 1 idol. To the chinese who should they look up to? So many historical figures to look up to. yue fei, confueous, mao ze dong, guan gong just too many ppl to look up to but you don't see chinese ppl all looking at say mao ze dong's potrait for example thinking of some past glory yet that's all the mongols do think of some powerful conqueror 800 yrs ago that ruled the greatest land empire in the world for a short time before dying out and then the country where he came from became absorbed into the qing empire and made a satellite state by the soviets and then has no more significance in the world anymore and the ppl just worship this guy 800 yrs ago longing for the past. OMG.

At least the mongols have someone they can look up too. Even though the glory is 800 years ago. The ah nehs and m&ds have none.

They Live In A Land With Harsh Conditions

To the mongols all they have is 1 idol.

the ppl just worship this guy 800 yrs ago longing for the past. OMG.

This is the same as Saddam portraying himself as the great Nebuchadnezzar. It's the same for commoners to mimick the success that they yearn for the future. Destiny seems to be harsh on these people who are constantly looking for that repeated success to come by in the near future. It's the poverty, it's the pride, it's this something that they are forced to have left with. They have nothing. And that's the cruel reality that they may not want to face. They want hope. We all want hope.

The Chinese are too rich in their culture and they are climbing out of the rut once again to become something formidable again.

Kublai Khan Lost His Fleet

Kublai Khan made Beijing the capital of the Mongol empire.

They lust for Chinese cities. There's no better place than China ? Or, is it because of Japan ?

China should have conquered Japan during the Tang dynasty. Then history would have changed.

Hard To Say

China should have conquered Japan during the Tang dynasty. Then history would have changed.

It is not easy for the Chinese emperors to hold their reins on Japan even after the Mongol Empire fell apart. The Chinese emperors may not want a direct control over Japan when the sea is the ultimate barrier for communication.
