The statue of the Mongolian general Bo'orchu (c. 13th Century CE), in front of the Mongolian Parliament House. Bo'orchu was one of the most trusted generals of [Genghis Khan](https://www.worldhistory.org/Genghis_Khan/) (c. 1206 - 1227 CE), and later, a close friend of [Ogedei Khan](https://www.worldhistory.org/Ogedei_Khan/) (1229 - 1241 CE). The statue of Bo'orchu was set up in front of the Mongolian Parliament House in 2006 CE to commemorate the 800th anniversary of Genghis Khan's unification of the [Mongols](https://www.worldhistory.org/Mongol_Empire/) in 1206 CE. Statues of Genghis Khan, his sons, and his other generals, were also created at the time.
