A History of the Rise of the Golden Horde of the Mongols A HISTORY OF THE RISE OF THE GOLDEN HORDE OF THE MONGOLS The Golden Horde, Ulug Ulus was originally a Mongol and later Turkicized khanate established The first known use of the term, in , in the Russian chronicle History of Kazan, applied it to the Ulus of Batu (Russian: Улуѕа Батыѕ), centered on Qaidu and the Rise of the Independent Mongol State In Central Asia. In he conquered the Bashkirs, a western Turkic people from the Eurasian borderlands. Clmae the picture is of a 19th century reproduction. His injuries contribute to his death a little while later, in Regions in the lower Volga inhabited by the descendants of Nogai Khan At the same time, the influence of Nogai greatly increased in the Golden Horde. Rumors spread that Shevkal wanted to occupy the throne for himself and introduce Islam to the city. Relations between the Italians and the Golden Horde remained tense until Toqta's death. Public Domain The dismounted Mongols, with captured women, are on the left, the Hungarians, with one saved woman, on the right. The tribesmen spend that summer on the plains of Hungary , grasslands similar to their own steppes. It is a measure of the task confronting the young Temujin that it takes him the first twenty-five years of his fighting life to win a position of power among his own people. Riders gallop between well-equipped staging posts across the steppes, enabling a message to travel more than miles in a day. But the single most important element is a ruthless use of two psychological weapons, loyalty and fear. In Bukhara, he and Hulagu slaughtered all the retainers of the Golden Horde and reduced their families into slavery, sparing only the Great Khan Kublai's men. According to some Muslim sources, Hulagu refused to share his war booty with Berke in accordance with Genghis Khan's wish. Mongol armies have nibbled, but little more, at the northern provinces of China.

Then he sought assistance from Egypt against the Ilkhanate. The Russian princes won a signal victory over the Horde general Mamai at the Battle of Kulikovo in But the horde then moves south. Sokol Sartaq promptly died and was replaced by Batu's younger brother Berke. The gates are opened. The Jochids believed that Hulagu's state eliminated their presence in the Transcaucasus. One of them, Nomoghan, favorite of Kublai, was located in the Crimea. This gramota says: Mengu-Timur's word to Prince Yaroslav: give the German merchants way into your lands. Horsemen can move fast along the steppes. The Mongols took regular census counts and required regular tax payments, but otherwise left the people to their own devices so long as they did not try to rebel. The Mongols are coming.

    0 BACKGROUND GUIDE: APPANAGE RUSSIA 1 BACKGROUND GUIDE: APPANAGE RUSSIA Hello delegates, My name is Paul, and I’ll be your director for this year. Working with me are your moderator, Tristan; your crisis manager, Davis; and your analysts, Lawrence, Lilian, Philip, and Sofia. We’re going to be working together to make this council as entertaining and educational (yeah yeah, I know) as possible. A bit about me? I am a third year student studying archaeology, and this is also my third year doing UTMUN. Now enough about me. Let’s talk about something far more interesting: Russia. Russian history is as brutal as the land itself, especially during our time of study. Geography sets the stage with freezing winters and mud-ridden summers. This has huge effects on how Russia’s economy and society functions. Coupled with that are less-than-neighbourly neighbours: the power- hungry nations of western and central Europe, The Byzantine Empire (a consistent love- hate partner), and (big surprise) various nomadic groups, one of which would eventually pose quite a problem for the idea of Russian independence. Uh oh, it looks like it’s suddenly 1300 and all of you are Russian Princess.You are all under the rule of Toqta Khan of the Golden Horde (Halperin, 2009), one of the successor states to Genghis Khan’s massive empire. Bummer. But, there is hope: through working together and with wise reactions to the crises that will inevitably come your way, you might just be able shake off the Tatar Yoke. Of course, your problems are not so limited.

  • Maria Paleologina and the Il-Khanate of Persia. a Byzantine Princess in an Empire Between Islam and Christendom
    MARIA PALEOLOGINA AND THE IL-KHANATE OF PERSIA. A BYZANTINE PRINCESS IN AN EMPIRE BETWEEN ISLAM AND CHRISTENDOM MARÍA ISABEL CABRERA RAMOS UNIVERSIDAD DE GRANADA SpaIN Date of receipt: 26th of January, 2016 Final date of acceptance: 12th of July, 2016 ABSTRACT In the 13th century Persia, dominated by the Mongols, a Byzantine princess, Maria Paleologina, stood out greatly in the court of Abaqa Khan, her husband. The Il-Khanate of Persia was then an empire precariously balanced between Islam, dominant in its territories and Christianity that was prevailing in its court and in the diplomatic relations. The role of Maria, a fervent Christian, was decisive in her husband’s policy and in that of any of his successors. Her figure deserves a detailed study and that is what we propose in this paper. KEYWORDS Maria Paleologina, Il-khanate of Persia, Abaqa, Michel VIII, Mongols. CapitaLIA VERBA Maria Paleologa, Ilkhanatus Persiae, Abaqa, Michael VIII, Mongoles. IMAGO TEMPORIS. MEDIUM AEVUM, XI (2017): 217-231 / ISSN 1888-3931 / DOI 10.21001/itma.2017.11.08 217 218 MARÍA ISABEL CABRERA RAMOS 1. Introduction The great expansion of Genghis Khan’s hordes to the west swept away the Islamic states and encouraged for a while the hopes of the Christian states of the East. The latter tried to ally themselves with the powerful Mongols and in this attempt they played the religion card.1 Although most of the Mongols who entered Persia, Iraq and Syria were shamanists, Nestorian Christianity exerted a strong influence among elites, especially in the court. That was why during some crucial decades for the history of the East, the Il-Khanate of Persia fluctuated between the consolidation of Christian influence and the approach to Islam, that despite the devastation brought by the Mongols in Persia,2 Iraq and Syria remained the dominant factor within the Il-khanate.

    2014 – Nogai People “Do unto others, as you would have them do unto you” – Luke 6:31 Proud descendants of the ancient Golden Horde, the Nogai people are now located in scattered regions of southern Russia---northern Dagestan, northern Chechnya, and Stavropol, Astrakhan, and Karachai-Cherkessia. The name Nogai is derived from Nogai Khan, a general of the Golden Horde, who was a great-great-grandson of Genghiz Khan. The Mongol Empire, under Genghiz Khan and his sons, swept into power across a wide swath of western Asia and eastern Europe (reaching all the way to Hungary) in the early 13th Century. The Golden Horde was the western wing of the Mongol Empire, holding sway in southern Russia and eastern Europe from the 13th to the 15th Century. Eventually defeated by the Lithuanians and Russians in the late 15th Century, the remnants of the Golden Horde continued to live in large numbers in southern Russia in the Volga region, in the steppe lands north of the Caucasus and in southern Ukraine and Crimea. The Nogai, one of the surviving sub-groups of the Golden Horde, are of combined Mongol-Turkic descent. The Nogai speak their own distinct Nogai language, which is a Turkic language— one of 5 Turkic languages spoken in the North Caucasus (Kumyk, Karachai, Balkar, Meskhetian Turk—the other 4). The largest concentration of present-day Nogai culture is in 20 towns/villages of the steppe lands of northern Dagestan, and as part of the ethnic melting-pot composition of major urban areas of Dagestan, such as Kizylar and Makhachkala.

Armenians had originally sought the help of princes of western Europe, and it is on the advice of one of these, the Palatine Elector, that they petitioned the Russian Tsar. The Palatine Elector’s advice was pertinently based on the geographical proximity of Russia to the Caucasus. The first Armenian petition to the tsars would be followed by many others throughout the eighteenth century. Indeed, the history of relations between the Armenians of Transcaucasia and the Russian Empire during that period is mostly one of Armenians hoping for a Russian invasion that would free East- ern Armenia from the oppression of the Persian shahs and local khans.

  • POLISH ROYAL ANCESTRY Book 1 - Medieval Era (Abt
    GRANHOLM GENEALOGY POLISH ROYAL ANCESTRY Book 1 - Medieval Era (abt. 800-1400) INTRODUCTION Poland has had a very tumultuous past involving several wars. It has been attacked by Tatars and Russians from the East, Turks and Austrians from the South, Teuotonic Knights and Prussians from the West and Swedes from the North. It has been occupied and divided countless times but always maintained a small but very patriotic core, which has made it possible to survive. I micro similarity to what has happened in Poland is how Berlin was divided in four zones after World War II. The information about our lineage from the Polish royalty is somewhat unique in that we are directly related to the rulers from the first one to the 12th generation (great grand parents) where our direct lineage branches away from the Polish. The subsequent rulers are thus cousins. Below is a list of the ancestors, those covered in the text are highlighted. In some cases the spouses are also highlighted, this indicated that we are related to them also, but from a different lineage. The lineage to us is listed at the end of this book. The era and the Piast dynasty, covered by Book 1 ends with Saint Hedwig (Jadwiga) King of Poland, who had no children. Note that although a female, she was designated “King” according to the Polish custom. Book 2 begins with her husband, Jogaila Wladyslaw II Jagiello King of Poland, who with his second wife was the first of the next Jagellonian dynasty. He is not a direct ancestor for us, but we do have a common ancestor, Vladimir II "Monomach" Grand Duke of Kiev, my 26th great grand father.

  • The Middle Ages in Romania Began with the Withdrawal of the Mongols
    The Middle Ages in Romania began with the withdrawal of the Mongols, the last of the migrating populations to invade the territory of modern Romania, after their attack of 1241– 1242. It came to an end with the reign of Michael the Brave (1593–1601) who managed, for a short time in 1600, to rule Wallachia, Moldavia and Transylvania, the three principalities whose territories were to be united some three centuries later to form Romania. Over most of this period, Banat, Crişana, Maramureş and Transylvania – now regions in Romania to the west of the Carpathian Mountains – were part of the Kingdom of Hungary. They were divided into several types of administrative units, such as "counties" and "seats". The heads of the Transylvanian counties or "counts" were subordinated to a special royal official called voivode, but the province was seldom treated as a single unit, since the Székely and Saxon seats were administered separately. In the kingdom, Romanian peasants, being Orthodox, were exempt from the tithe, an ecclesiastical tax payable by all Roman Catholic commoners. However, Romanian noblemen slowly lost the ability to participate in political life, as the 14th-century monarchs pursued a zealous pro- Catholic policy. Their position became even worse after 1437 when the so-called "Union of Three Nations", an alliance of the Hungarian noblemen, the Székelys, and the Saxons, was formed in order to crush the Bobâlna peasant uprising. Wallachia, the first independent medieval state between the Carpathians and the lower Danube was created when Basarab I (c. 1310–1352) terminated the suzerainty of the king of Hungary with his victory in the battle of Posada in 1330.
