The Slavs would be a balkanized or barely federated series of principalities and city states if the Mongols never rode west and killed so many of them they were forced to band together or face extinction. Russia and Ukraine wouldn’t exist if it weren’t for this historical event. Does this mean Genghis Khan is God, or at the very least the will of God?
“I am the punishment of heaven. You must have committed great sins for God to send me upon you.” or something to that effect. I remember reading that like 10 years ago and being like, “damn. that’s some cold shit.”

He was the scourge of god, wasn’t he? So he’s god-adjacent at least.
