Emil River
The Emil is a river of Central Asia that rises in the Tarbagatai region of north-western Xinjiang, China, and flows west into Lake Alakol in Kazakhstan. Its valley and the upper Irtysh were the pastures given by Genghis Khan to his son Ögedei. The region remained the heartland of the Ögedeid line until its lands were absorbed by the Chagatai Khanate in the early 14th century.
