Political divisions and vassals of the Mongol Empire information
For the fragmentation of the Mongol Empire, see Division of the Mongol Empire.
The Mongol world, ca. 1300. The gray area is the later Timurid Empire.[1][2][3][4][5]
This article discusses the political divisions and vassals of the Mongol Empire. Through invasions and conquests the Mongols established a vast empire that included many political divisions, vassals and tributary states. It was the largest contiguous land empire in history. However, after the death of Möngke Khan, the Toluid Civil War and subsequent wars had led to the fragmentation of the Mongol Empire. By 1294, the empire had fractured into four autonomous khanates, including the Golden Horde in the northwest, the Chagatai Khanate in the middle, the Ilkhanate in the southwest, and the Yuan dynasty[a] in the east based in modern-day Beijing, although the Yuan emperors held the nominal title of Khagan of the empire.
