Genghis Khan developed the Yassa code of laws. There were a lot of laws that existed in the Yassa code, but the most significant are listed below:
- There is only one God
- All religions are to be respected and the government should show no preference to any one religion
- Under penalty of death, no man can proclaim himself to be emperor unless he has been elected by a council of Mongol Nobles
- Homosexuality is punishable by death
- Adultery is punishable by death
- Children of concubines are legitimate and should receive their fair share of heritage from their father
- No subordinate or official of the Mongol Empire is allowed to take a Mongol in as a slave. All men (with rare exceptions) must join the army
- If a soldier pillages during war before the commanding officer has given him permission, he shall be put to death. But after the permission to pillage has been given to the soldier, he shall be given the same opportunity to carry off his loot as the officer.
- Leaders of a religion (preachers, monks, etc.), physicians, and those who bathe the bodies of the dead are to be freed from public charges.
- It is illegal to cut the throats of animals that are to be slain for food. Instead, the animals are to be bound, have their chest opened, and their hearts pulled out and squeezed by the hunter.

"If one must drink, then let one drink thrice a month, for more is bad. If one gets drunk twice a month, it is better; if one gets drunk once a month, that is better still; and if one doesn't drink at all, that is the best of all." -Genghis Khan

Born in 1234 A.D. "Genghis Dong" (Not to be confused with Genghis Khan) Was a notorious buttfucker who ravaged the entire Eurasian continent with his massive penis. While out on raids with his debaucherous crew, Genghis (also known as "The Donger") would swing his magnificent member violently above his head in an attempt to intimidate his adversaries.
Once the territory he and his men attacked was conquered, Genghis would proceed to corn-hole each and every one of its inhabitants.
Upon retiring in 1274 A.D. he found success as a male stripper, performing at birthday parties and gay Bar Mitzvahs
