During his lifetime between 1162 and 1227, Genghis Khan fathered countless children. And while we may never know exactly how many offspring the leader of the Mongol Empire had, scientists now believe that around 1 in every 200 (or 16 million) men is a direct descendant of his, according to a 2003 historical genetics paper.
