Gloranthan bigwigs can also commit suicide, be killed by assasins or perish in mundane circumstances. Their deaths should be compared to the deaths of Julius Caesar, Thomas Becket, Pyrrhus

Harrek is based by Greg upon Harald Hadrada, a famous Norwegian King, although Conan (of Cimmeria, not Britanny) seems to many a more appropiate model.
The gloranthan equivalent of Genghis Khan (as well as Atilla and Timurlame) is none other than Sheng Seleris.

The changes are less dramatic than you imply. At the Dawn, the humans of Dragon Pass were Orlanthi, the humans of Peloria were Pelorians and so forth. There have been major changes at the top but these are no more dramatic than the French Revolution in changing the ethnographic landscape of europe.
