Name (English): Ilchane
Short name: Ilkhanate
Short Description: "The Ilkhanate, also spelled Il-khanate (Persian: ایلخانان‎, Ilxānān), known to the Mongols as Ulus Hülegü (Mongolian: Хүлэгийн улс, Hu’legīn Uls) was a khanate established from the southwestern sector of the Mongol Empire, ruled by the Mongol House of Hulagu. Hulagu Khan, the son of Tolui and grandson of Genghis Khan, inherited the Middle Eastern part of the Mongol Empire after his brother Möngke Khan died in 1260. Its core territory lies in what is now part of the countries of Iran, Azerbaijan, and Turkey. At its greatest extent, the Ilkhanate also included parts of modern Iraq, Armenia, Georgia, Turkmenistan, Afghanistan, part of modern Dagestan, part of modern Tajikistan, and the northwestern edge of the Indian subcontinent. Later Ilkhanate rulers, beginning with Ghazan in 1295, converted to Islam. In the 1330s, the Ilkhanate was ravaged by the Black Death. Its last khan Abu Sa´id died in 1335, after which the khanate disintegrated." - (en.wikipedia.org 31.01.2020)
