"Without a doubt I was one of the cruelest conquerors in history. I also had eye for beauty in arts, muslim arts that is. The largest Qur´an ever made was manufactured on my order; architects were given free hands to build monuments for me. I conquered most of the area that used to be the Persian empire. Some cities taken over by my troops were completely demolished, at some places I ordered pyramids to be built of skulls of beheaded inhabitants. About 600 years after my death Soviet anthropologists exhumed me from my tomb, therefore it is known what I really looked like." RE: Quiz: Who Am I? - FLG - 04-26-2008 Ivan the Terrible?
