How do later Mongol reflections on the Yasa bring out the uneasy relation they had with the memory of Genghis Khan?

Answer»

Genghis Khan was of the view that conquered cities and sedentary people needed to be wiped out to instill a sense of horror among his ADVERSARIES. The later Mongols felt that there was a need to DEVELOP a benign approach towards conquered subjects in order to rule over them peacefully. So, the later Mongols REFERRED to the yasa to stamp their authority. In ADDITION to that, they also referred to other lawgivers like Moses and Solomon to bring a sense of legitimacy to their rule. This shows the uneasy relationship they had with the memory of Genghis Khan.
