# Yassa headings as later reported include capital penalties for theft and desertion

Date: 1206

## The fact

From 1206 later reports credit Chinggis Khan with yassa headings that include capital penalties for theft and desertion. The code is reconstructed. Unique execution rolls are not here. Genghis Khan's documented role is: He is credited with a yassa of severe penalties. The code survives as later report, not a recovered statute book.

## Context

Juvayni and later writers are carriers. Sharing reconstruction with those reporters is required. Religious-plurality headings are a different yassa path. The setting of Yassa headings as later reported include capital penalties for theft and desertion is the public file around 1206-06-01. Shared offices, unnamed crews, printers, or later editors may appear without becoming this instrument. Driver justice-[judicial-independence](/drivers/justice-judicial-independence-erosion)-erosion is attached because the significance names a mechanism from this act, not because a standing list needed coverage.

The welfare reading used in this dossier is worsening. That reading is an impact-path choice, not a property stored on the Fact itself.

## Significance

Worsening path from Yassa headings as later reported include capital penalties for theft and desertion on 1206-06-01. Reported capital penalties are a justice path of medium confidence because the yassa is reconstructed. The welfare reading on this path is worsening.

Shared responsibility is part of Yassa headings as later reported include capital penalties for theft and desertion. Naming Genghis Khan does not delete co-authors, institutions, or later transmitters. The lag from 1206-06-01 to any measured indicator is not treated as zero. Alternative explanations — weather, other armies, later statutes, or independent cultural change — remain live where the sources do not close them.

## What is established and what is not

Established: a sourced public record of Yassa headings as later reported include capital penalties for theft and desertion under 1206-06-01 for Genghis Khan. Established: a sourced public record of Yassa headings as later reported include capital penalties for theft and desertion under 1206-06-01.

If a number is not in the two records named above, it is not supplied here.

Later competitions, monuments, translations, UNESCO listings, museums, and adaptations are not converted into extra lifetime acts.

Confidence is stated on the impact path, not hidden in adjectives. Do not treat a reconstructed yassa as a parchment autograph. Mixed effects of Yassa headings as later reported include capital penalties for theft and desertion are separate paths.
