The Mongol Civil War: Golden Horde vs Ilkhanate
from The Golden Horde: Mongol Rule Over Russia Explained — Fexingo History · host Fexingo
The Mongol Empire fractured within a generation of Genghis Khan. This episode dives into the decades-long war between the Golden Horde and the Ilkhanate—two Chinggisid states that turned from allies to bitter enemies. We cover the Battle of the Terek River (1262), the alliance between Berke Khan and the Mamluks, the role of religion and trade, and how the conflict reshaped Central Asia and the Middle East. Lucas and Luna explore key figures like Hulegu, Berke, Abaqa, and Mengu-Timur, and discuss the legacy of these civil wars for the later rise of Timur. #GoldenHorde #Ilkhanate #MongolCivilWar #BerkeKhan #Hulegu #BattleOfTheTerek #MamlukAlliance #Chinggisid #JochidUlu #Abaqa #MenguTimur #CentralAsia #MiddleEast #MongolHistory #HistoryPodcast #FexingoHistory #MongolEmpire #CivilWar Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
