Özet:
Following the Death of Jinggis Khan, the Mongol Empire continued its unity for a period of four rulers, Ögedei and his son Güyük, Möngke and his younger brother Khublai. Khublai was the last Mongol Khan to be recognized universally as the Great Khan within the Mongol realm, but by his death, the Mongol Empire had already dissolved into smaller Khanates and the Mongol civil war that not only devastated the pax Mongolica but also ended the Mongol supremacy in Eurasia had already started. This paper focuses on the Mongol court politics during the Ögedeid rule during which the four different Jinggisid houses became irreconcilably separate political entities.
