Who are the Tatars?
The State of the Tatars appeared in about 603 A.H., first in Mongolia, North of China, under its first leader, Genghis Khan, (standing for the world Conqueror, or the world's King of Kings, or the Powerful, according to the different translations from the Mongolic language). His real name is Temüjin. He was a blood shedder and a very strong military leader, capable of assembling people around him in great numbers.
He started to gradually expand his kingdom in the surrounding territories, and very soon it became very extensive, lying from Korea in the East to the borders of the Islamic Khwarezmian State in the West, and from the valleys of Siberia in the North to the Sea of China in the South. In other words, it included China, Mongolia, Vietnam, Korea, Thailand, parts of Siberia, Laos and Myanmar, Nepal and Bhutan.
The Tatars or Mongols include the peoples who came from the North of China, i.e. the desert of Juba, even though the Tatars were the origin of all the tribes in this region. From the Tatars, many tribes came, like the Mongols, the Turks, the Seljuks, and others. But, when the Mongols, to whom Genghis Khan belonged, took control of the region, all the tribes then were given the name of Mongols.
The Tatars had a strange religion, i.e. a mixture of many religions, in which Genghis Khan collected some laws from Islam, some from Christianity, some from Buddhism, and some from his own self, and ultimately brought out to them a book, which he made a constitution for the Tatars, called Yasak or Yasah or Yasaq.
