Yassa, alternatively Yasa, is a Mongol code of law created by Genghis Khan to be strictly followed by all " Mongols." Genghis Khan appointed his son Chagatai, later Chagatai Khan to oversee the execution of it.

The document is very comprehensive and has many sections that outlines laws for various members of the community like soldiers, officers, doctors, etc. The main purpose of the document is to eliminate social and economic issues and disputes that existed among the Mongols before the unification by Genghis Khan, and it was revised constantly as it required to maintain the social and economic stability of the Mongol lands.
