THE MONGOL KHATUN Genghis Khan’s Daughters

Without the daughters of Genghis Khan, there would have been no Mongol Empire.

It's a story you've never heard, because the sisters were literally cut out of the Mongol records. Join us with eminent Mongol scholar Jack Weatherford, who went searching for the missing story... and found it.
