The mingghan (Middle Mongolian: *mïŋgan) was a social-military unit of 1000 households created by Genghis Khan. From this group could be recruited a Mongol regiment of 1000 men. It is part of the ancient method of organization developed by the nomads of Central Asia based on the decimal system.[1] A tumen, which included 10,000 households and soldiers,[2] was the largest group and it was divided into ten mingghan.[1] A mingghan was made up of 10 jaghuns[2] or 100 arbans.[3] An account cited that once he becomes a guard, it is the duty of a mingghan commander's son to bring a younger brother and 10 other men to serve with him.[4]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
