How do you see Genghis Khan?

I have a pet peeve about the unfairness of Versailles. Admittedly it was a "Dictated Peace" but it was easier than the treaty Germany forced on the Russians in 1917.
Notably, the Germans weren't the ones going on about self-determination, the rights of small nations, democracy, and so on. The Western Allies were. It might not have been unfair, but it was abominably hypocritical.
 
To be fair, Woodrow Wilson was. I don't think it was enthusiastically accepted by the other two even if they were willing to go along with it to some degree to keep him happy (David Lloyd George's quote about being stuck between Napoleon and Jesus Christ comes to mind).
