Qaghan

Mongolian history and culture, made accessible

Educational content, written resources, and interactive experiences centered on the legacy of the Mongol world

Qaghan is a content project dedicated to telling the stories of Mongolian rulers, empires, and culture in a way that is engaging, honest, and easy to explore.

Historical Articles

Written profiles, deep dives, and overviews of the 261 rulers who shaped the Mongol world across six khanates and 724 years of history. Content that goes beyond textbook summaries and focuses on the human stories behind the empires.

Educational Resources

Structured content that helps people understand Mongolian history from the ground up. From Genghis Khan's rise to the fragmentation of the khanates, the goal is to make complex history approachable without oversimplifying it.

Social Media Content

Short-form posts, facts, and stories shared across platforms to bring Mongolian history to wider audiences. Content built for people who are curious but have never known where to start.

Featured Project

The Khan Council

An interactive experience where you can have conversations with legendary Mongolian rulers like Genghis Khan. Each Qaghan speaks with a distinct voice shaped by their era, decisions, and historical context.

This project explores:

  • History told through the voices of those who lived it
  • Engaging with culture through conversation and storytelling
  • Making historical figures feel real and present
  • A new format for educational content

Hi, I'm Dulguun. I'm creating content about Mongolian history from Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia.

Growing up in Mongolia, the history of the khans and khanates was always around me. But I noticed most of the English-language content about Mongolian history either stops at Genghis Khan or misses the nuance of what came after. Qaghan is my attempt to fix that.

This is a personal project built out of genuine curiosity and pride. It's evolving, it's independent, and it's made by someone who actually grew up with this culture.

Currently working on:

  • Biographical articles for all 261 rulers in the directory
  • Social media content bringing Mongolian history to new audiences
  • A Mongolian language section for local readers (exploring)

The vision is to build the most complete and readable English-language resource on Mongolian rulers and khanates — with Mongolian heritage as the foundation and a global audience in mind.

This is a long-term project. I'm building it openly, learning as I go, and publishing as content is ready.
