00:00This is how Genghis Khan used his daughters to expand his empire.

00:04You see, Genghis Khan wasn't just a master of war, he was a master of politics as well.

00:10Like most rulers, he married off his daughters to neighboring kingdoms and tribes.

00:15But with Genghis, there were always conditions.

00:18Any king marrying his daughter had to make her the chief wife,

00:23elevating her position above all other wives and concubines.

00:26And once married, the new son-in-law was expected to support the Mongol campaigns,

00:32often leading troops on the front lines.

00:35Back home, it was his daughter who governed her husband's kingdom.

00:39And if her husband died in battle, she would continue ruling as regent,

00:43ensuring the territory remained firmly under Mongol control.

00:47In this fashion, three of his daughters came to preside over powerful regions

00:51across northern China, western Syria and the frontier tribes near the Great Wall.

00:56Their job was simple, hold the line, while their father expanded further.
