Genghis Khan is a warrior that ruled the second largest empire in the world, Millions of people around the world claim to a descendent of Genghis Khan. I believe it is not just because he had many children but because of the way humanity is. Let me explain
If I have 2 children and my children have 2 children then I will have 4 Grandchildren and 6 descendents, if my Grandchildren have 2 children each then I will have 8 great grandchildren. If my descendants continue having 2 children each then there will be 16 then 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, 2048, 4096,8192 descendants.
Eventually, every person on Earth will be my descent. My future descendants will become links in other people's family trees. I'm not being boastful or pompous, just pointing out that many people living today will become the ancestor to everyone on Earth in the future because everyone on Earth's family tree will be so big that everyone living today would fit on it.
