Jalayirides
The Jalâyirides (1336 - 1432) are a Moslem dynasty of a Mongolian tribe associated with Hülegü, grandson of Gengis Khan and founder of the dynasty of the Mongolian Ilkhans of Perse.
The founder of the dynasty jalâyiride, Hassan Buzurg (“Hassan large” in the Persan one) was governor of Anatolia on behalf of the ilkhan Abu Saïd, whose death in 1336 rang the knell of the power ilkhanide.
Hassan Buzurg is established with Baghdad while recognizing the sovereignty of the khans of straw ilkhanides, but his/her son Uways Ier affirmed his independence and conquered the Azerbaïdjan and the Fârs with the detriment of the Muzaffarides.
Its successors faced the rise to power of the Qara Qoyunlu (“Black sheep”) Turkmènes and in the campaigns of Tamerlan, which obliged Ahmad Ier to exile in Egypt until the death of the conqueror in 1405. The Jalâyirides last reigned on a field reduced around Bassora until their inversion by the Qara Qoyunlu in 1432.
