"Kubla Khan" by Samuel Taylor Coleridge reveals the power of the imaginative poetry. This poetry has the ability to create kingdoms and paradise. In this poem Coleridge is expressing heaven and hell through his own eyes just as the aplostles did in the "Bible" and Milton did in "Paradise Lost". The poem begins with a mythical tone‚ "In Xanadu did Kubla Khan/ A stately pleasure dome decree." The poem does not give specifics to the construction of the palace. It just states that Khan decreed

My favorite Indian icon is the actor Aamir Khan. I have always been a fan of his ever since I saw his first movie‚ ‘Qayamat se Qayamat Tak’.

The lines describing the river have a markedly different rhythm from the rest of the passage:[29] In Xanadu did Kubla Khan A stately pleasure-dome decree : Where Alph‚ the sacred river

The name of Genghis Khan is often associated with destruction‚ although the image of Genghis Khan has been rehabilitated somewhat in the west. The western world‚ saturated in media distortion and a reluctance to accept changes in perceptions of history‚ has been rather averse in accepting Genghis Khan’s activities as pivotal in world history and the shaping of the modern world. Thus‚ the publication of Jack Weatherford’s book‚ Genghis Khan and the Making of the Modern World‚ is a welcome addition

After the death of Khubulai Khan‚ the four uluses divided forming their own independent states. These four powers remained autonomous‚ until the territories internally began to divide and ultimately fall apart. The first of the khanates to collapse were the Yuan Dynasty and the Ilkhanid‚ while the Chagatai and the Golden Horde were able to stay in control relatively longer. It is most likely that these two uluses were the first to dissolve because Mongol steppe and traditional life never prospered
