The September 11 attacks (also referred to as 9/11)[nb 1] were a series of four coordinated terrorist attacks by the Islamic terroristgroup al-Qaeda on the United States on the morning of Tuesday, September 11, 2001. The attacks killed 2,997 people, injured over 6,000 others, and caused at least $10 billion in infrastructure and property damage.[2][3]
Four passenger airliners operated by two major U.S. passenger air carriers (United Airlines and American Airlines)—all of which departed from airports in the northeastern United States bound for California—were hijacked by 19 al-Qaeda terrorists. Two of the planes, American Airlines Flight 11 and United Airlines Flight 175, were crashed into the North and South towers, respectively, of the World Trade Center complex in New York City. Within an hour and 42 minutes, both 110-story towers collapsed, with debris and the resulting fires causing partial or complete collapse of all other buildings in the World Trade Center complex, including the 47-story 7 World Trade Center tower, as well as significant damage to ten other large surrounding structures. A third plane, American Airlines Flight 77, was crashed into the Pentagon (the headquarters of the United States Department of Defense) in Arlington County, Virginia, leading to a partial collapse of the building's western side. The fourth plane, United Airlines Flight 93, initially was steered toward Washington, D.C., but crashed into a field in Stonycreek Township near Shanksville, Pennsylvania, after its passengers tried to overcome the hijackers. 9/11 was the single deadliest incident for firefighters and law enforcement officers[4] in the history of the United States, with 343 and 72 killed respectively.

Genghis Khan - Rise Of Mongol Empire
Credit to: Roothmens Armageddon
Introduction
The rise of Genghis (Chinggis) Khan was one of the most dramatic in history. No other has risen from such a low position, as part of a family eating roots and rodents for survival, to become a great world conqueror. Genghis Khan’s founding of the Mongol Empire was one of the most significant events in history.
Much of what we know about Genghis' early life comes from the famous script Yuan Chao Bi Shi, translated as The Secret History of the Yuan Dynasty (or alternatively, “The Secret History of the Mongols”). It was probably completed in 1240, a little over a decade after the death of the Khan. The bulk of the Secret History describes Genghis Khan's early life - his adventures and exploits before world conquest. The story about to be told here is mainly based on these events described in the Secret History. An alternative account of Genghis’ early life is The History of the Tribes, by the Persian historian Rashid ad-Din, who had access to the Secret History. The two works do contain some contradictions, but there is a good agreement between the two sources on the general flow of the story. In any case, the story is difficult to fully verify with historical sources, which do have conflicts to the Secret History’s timeline. Thus, any tale of the rise of Genghis Khan will ultimately be a mix of legend and history.
