Fifth place: Genghis Khan Temujin, the first leader of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty

Genghis Khan Temujin means "possessing the world and the four seas" in Mongolian. Mu Zhen's ambition is so amazing. In 1271 AD, when Kublai Khan was converted to Mongolia and called Yuan Dynasty, he posthumously named Genghis Khan the Emperor of Fatian Qiyun Shengwu.

A domineering saying that will last forever: Everything the sun and moon shine upon is Han soil, and everything the rivers touch is Han Dynasty!
