Trial Definitions

For the purposes of our trial, the following definitions will be used by the court:

Genocide—The deliberate or systematic attempt to destroy either all of a group of humans or the ways of life of a group of humans because of their shared ethnic/religious/cultural traits or their intrinsic beliefs.

Terrorism—The attempt to instill a heightened state of fear in a group of humans in order to enact political, religious or social change.

Kidnapping—The taking of a human being (or multiple human beings) against his or her will and subsequently depriving that person of freedom of movement and choice.

A guilty charge will stick if the prosecution provides evidence that the Mongols did in fact act in ways that match these definitions. The defense providing reasonable doubt to the witnesses credibility that the Mongols acted in these ways, or direct evidence to the contrary will prevent a guilty verdict. Good luck!
