What was Genghis Khan last words?
According to legend, Genghis Khan's last words to a few faithful followers were: “I have conquered for you a large empire. But my life was too short to take the whole world. That I leave to you.” Whether he uttered these short sentences or not, his successors were more than happy to take up the challenge.
