    The most powerful person in history was not Qin Shi Huang or Emperor Wu of Han, nor Emperor Taizong of Tang or Emperor Taizu of Song, nor Genghis Khan or Alexander the Great, nor even Queen Victoria who founded the British Empire. It was Batu Khan, who led his eldest son on a westward expedition from the Mongolian steppes to the gates of Vienna, establishing the Golden Horde. The young Batu accompanied his father Jochi on his campaigns, achieving remarkable feats that fueled Jochi's growing claim to the Mongol Khanate. However, due to doubts about Jochi's lineage, he was consistently excluded from the succession, constantly subjected to rumors and gossip, and ultimately died in despair. Batu inherited Jochi's fiefdom and, with his exceptional talent, became the commander of his eldest son's westward expedition, leading 150,000 cavalry from the Mongolian steppes all the way to the gates of Vienna. He conquered the Rus' principalities, defeated Hungary, blitzed Poland, pushed past Moscow, reached the Danube, and even defeated a 400,000-strong European coalition army with only 40,000 cavalry, conquering more than twenty countries in seven years. After the death of Ögedei Khan, the princes who had campaigned westward returned east to vie for the throne. Batu Khan, leveraging the momentum of his western campaigns, established the vast Golden Horde, known to Europeans as Sain Khan and revered by Russians as "Tsar Batu." Later, tensions escalated between Batu and the Mongol Great Khan Güyük. In a critical moment, Güyük died suddenly, and Batu swiftly installed Möngke Khan as Khan, becoming the de facto ruler of the Mongol Empire. Coupled with his powerful position as Khan of the Golden Horde, his power was unprecedented, making him one of the most dazzling figures at the pinnacle of power in the 13th century.
