Season 1

A journey deep into modern Mongolia provides insights into what life was like for a young Genghis Khan as he fought his way to power.

A nomadic family moves with the seasons just as Genghis Khan’s people did eight centuries ago. We explore the spiritual significance of gift-giving and why the desire to trade fuels the expansion of the Mongol.

Marie Favereau reveals how the Mongols shaped the world and how a disease sparked the empire’s end.
