BorjiginBorjigin was the family name of Genghis Khan and his successors. The family ruled over a united Mongol Empire in the 13th century as head of the Grand Khanate. In 1271, Kublai Khan—who, as a direct descendent of Genghis, also carried the name—established the Yuan Dynasty in China, finally taking full control of China in 1279. The family continued to rule over the Mongol Empire, China, and other parts of Asia for much of the following century. In 1368, under Emperor Huizong of Yuan China, the dynasty lost the country. Members of the family continued to rule over Mongolia into the 17th century. Modern relevance In the 1920s, the communist Mongolian government banned surnames for efficiency—many had the same name, which confused tax collection. In 1997 the government reversed this, although the new law was not acted upon until 2004, when identity cards began to require the surname. Mongolian citizens were largely given free reign over the choice of name—resulting in half of the nation choosing the family name of nationalist icon Genghis Khan. The word borjigin derives of two different words uniting to mean one single word to identify the name of the forefathers and the a few generations of the bairns of Genghis Khan. The words are originally of then days Turkish origin which combined upon bringing two words "br" (wolf) and tigin/tegin (prince) together. When the Uygurs, successors and/or the heir of the Gktrks, moved towards the area called Turfan, the Moghuls(Shvys) inhabited the area which fell to the north of tken (the only legendary capital of all Turk peoples live in the world who are spread to many different countries). Those Shvy people used to tend the camel herds of the Uygurs and used to fight the Tunguz and the Manchu peoples who wanted to obtain and conduct such duty. The Kaghan of Uygurs who angered over this issue decided to send Br Tigin (Wolf Prince), who was one of the princes in his court, along with his family as basbug (pronounced as baashboogh meaning leader) to those Shvy/Moghul people and other peoples of the yellow race. This Brtigin family put things back in order, increased the number of camel herds and made Moghul adopt many Turkish legends/sagas etc. So that, although Moghul were amongst those who genocided Turks, they assumed that they were the victims and acquired the legend of ERGENEKON in exactly the same form but in Moghul version! Circa 1160 near the Onon river a child named Temuchin came to the world from the Brtigin family that were at the head of the Shvys who inhabited tken which is the previous holy motherland of the Turks(now in the north east of Mongolia). He had gingerish-brown hair and hazel-green eyes whereas the Moghuls are all dark haired and dark brown-black eyed. External links *Observer
