Read these two sources about genghis khan then answer the question that follows: source a: “did genghis achieve anything but the guinness record in bloodshed? john man believes he had redeeming features. he allowed toleration of all religions — perhaps because he didn’t have much of one himself, except as a mandate for conquest. he allowed women to play a more leading role than other dictators and he employed anyone of talent, irrespective of where they came from. but he built nothing. he left no palaces, no writings, no philosophy, nothing but territories that owed allegiance to him.” source b: “most westerners accept the stereotype of the 13th-century mongols as barbaric plunderers intent merely to maim, slaughter, and destroy. this perception, based on persian, chinese, russian, and other accounts of the speed and ruthlessness with which the mongols carved out the largest contiguous land empire in world history, has shaped both asian and western images of the mongols and of their earliest leader, [genghis] khan. such a view has diverted attention from the considerable contributions the mongols made to 13th- and 14th-century civilization. though the brutality of the mongols’ military campaigns ought not to be downplayed or ignored, neither should their influence on eurasian culture be overlooked.” which would be an accurate comparison of the sources? options: source a has a more positive opinion of genghis khan than source b. both source a and source b have the same opinion of genghis khan. source b has a more positive opinion of genghis khan than source a
