As someone who has studied Mamluk history of a decade, this video is.....perfect. You included virtually every important aspect of the Mamluk-Ilkhanate war. A few interesting details: When the Abbasid Caliph al-Mustansir II was on his ill-fated campaign, he ended up meeting another "Caliph", Al-Hakim I, and they ended up joining forces. Al-Hakim ended up taking refuge in Egypt, becoming Baybar's puppet Caliph. In terms of the use of spies, Baybars had once gotten Abaqa to execute one of his loyal commanders by fooling him into thinking he was a traitor. In the 1500s, Ismail I had executed the leader of the Crimean Tatars, and sent it to Sultan Ghawri. The move deeply offended the Mamluks, as they had considered them to be the successors of the Golden Horde, who was remembered as deep allies 200 years ago.

Both armies had mainly good mounted archers and good light and heavy cavalry. The Mamluk Sultanate was ruled by Turkic Kipchaks and Caucasian Circassians. The army was made mainly of these two groups. The Mamluk Sultanate is the successor of the Ayyubid Sultanate, which is also of Turkic origin. In those years, Turkic Kipchak youth and Caucasian Circassian youth were enslaved in Central Asia and Eurasia during Mongol attacks and sold as slave soldiers to some countries in the Middle East. The Turkic Ayyubid Dynasty used these Turkic Kipchak and Caucasian Circassian youth in their armies after training them in a good military school. The Ayyubid army consisted mainly of these two groups. In the beginning, Turkic groups were much more. However, these soldiers had taken over the sultanate after a coup d'etat and established the Mamluk Sultanate. The word Mamluk means 'Slave' in Arabic. The language of agreement in the Mamluk Sultanate was Western Turkish, a mixture of Kipchak and Oghuz. In the past, only Arabic and Persian education was given in Madrasahs and Turkish was not a language taught in Madrasahs. For this reason, if someone in the Middle East speaks Turkish or writes in Turkish at that time, that person is Turkish. This is a litmus paper for understanding that period. "Kitâbu Bulgatü'l-Müştâk Fî Lügati't-Türk Ve'l-Kıfçak" , "Kitâbü'l-Ef'al" and "Kitâb-ı Mecmû-ı Tercümân-ı Türkî and Acemî ve Mugalî” are some examples written in Mamluk Kipchak language.

When Genghis Khan heard that melody played by Ketbuga, he understood that his son was dead.

[@orkunyucel3095]

Both armies had mainly good mounted archers and good light and heavy cavalry. The Mamluk Sultanate was ruled by Turkic Kipchaks and Caucasian Circassians. The army was made mainly of these two groups. The Mamluk Sultanate is the successor of the Ayyubid Sultanate, which is also of Turkic origin. In those years, Turkic Kipchak youth and Caucasian Circassian youth were enslaved in Central Asia and Eurasia during Mongol attacks and sold as slave soldiers to some countries in the Middle East. The Turkic Ayyubid Dynasty used these Turkic Kipchak and Caucasian Circassian youth in their armies after training them in a good military school. The Ayyubid army consisted mainly of these two groups. In the beginning, Turkic groups were much more. However, these soldiers had taken over the sultanate after a coup d'etat and established the Mamluk Sultanate. The word Mamluk means 'Slave' in Arabic. The language of agreement in the Mamluk Sultanate was Western Turkish, a mixture of Kipchak and Oghuz. In the past, only Arabic and Persian education was given in Madrasahs and Turkish was not a language taught in Madrasahs. For this reason, if someone in the Middle East speaks Turkish or writes in Turkish at that time, that person is Turkish. This is a litmus paper for understanding that period. "Kitâbu Bulgatü'l-Müştâk Fî Lügati't-Türk Ve'l-Kıfçak" , "Kitâbü'l-Ef'al" and "Kitâb-ı Mecmû-ı Tercümân-ı Türkî and Acemî ve Mugalî” are some examples written in Mamluk Kipchak language.

The peak number of Mamluks in Egypt is around 8000 by the time of Qalawun's rule and not all of them were even soldiers some of them were personal servants and workers. The core of the army at that time were comprised of "Halaqa" soldiers who were free trained soldiers of native Egyptians, and their number were around 15 to 20 thousand during conflict time and the second to them were reserve soldiers and volunteers from various professions upon the call for "Jehad" in villages and cities across the country according to historians who recorded these events and some of these historians were sons of former mamluks who were eventually assimilated into the local community. There is an over-amplifying of the significance of slave trade on the success of the sultanate of Egypt specially on the early conflict with the Mongols when the inner conflicts and schism between the mamluks were still active and the mamluks assimilation system was still immature.

There was baybars aljashenkir, a circassian, who was also sultan during the Albahreyya turkic dominated era.

The Mamluk Turks were the best empire in defeating the Mongols. While the Europeans-Chinese were losing incessantly to the Mongols, the Mamluks won a huge victory under the leadership of Turkic Sultan Qalavun. In the Second Battle of Homs, Qalavun defeated the army of the Mongol prince Möngke Timur,the Armenian King Leo II and the Georgian king Demerius II, consisting of a total of 80,000[1] soldiers, with only 30,000 soldiers.[2] Möngke Timur was seriously injured in this battle and he had to flee. Until then, no one in the world had ever seen such a victory, but after all, the mamluks always achieved the first and impossible. the Iranian-Georgian-Armenian history is a joke for Qalavun, who defeated the Mongols, the most powerful state of his era; it is a joke for Qalavun, who defeated 2 Armenian-Georgian kings and Mongol princes in the same battle about 3 times less. Upon this brilliant victory of Qalavun, the Mongol Khan Abaka died of grief.[3] The Mongols feared him so much that they could not attack the Mamluks again until Qalavun died. Qalawun was not content with this either,immediately after that he attacked the Crusaders and he defeated them many times. Qalawun was a commander who did things that no Iranian general could do. 1.Nicole,The Mongol Warlords,p.117 2. Waterson, James (2007). The Knights of Islam: The Wars of the Mamluks.

Europeans weren't losing incessantly to the Mongols, in roughly the same period as the second battle of Homs the Hungarians managed to fight off a major invasion from the Golden Horde. The Poles defeated a similar invasion from the Horde soon after.
