How Chinggis Khaan Shaped the Basis of Mongolian Law

Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: When Chinggis Khaan built the Mongol Empire, he quickly realized that establishing a state law was necessary to unite and rule over many different arbitrary tribes, and thus a high priority was given for the immediate establishment of such a law. In order to solidify his administrative reforms for the nascent Mongol Empire, he created a set of legislations referred to as the “The Yasa” (Great Rule). This research explores the extent of the contributions Chinggis Khaan had on The Yasa and the lasting impact of this law on the development of the legal environment in Mongolia.
