| | Timur |
 | | Timur's legacy is a mixed one, for while Central Asia blossomed, some say even peaked, under his reign, other places such as Baghdad, Damascus, Delhi and other Arab, Persian, Indian and Turkic cities were sacked and destroyed, and many thousands of people were slaughtered brutally. |
 | | Timur was dispatched on a mission to the invader's camp, the result of which was his own appointment to the head of his own tribe, x74;he Barlas, in place of its former leader Hajji Beg. |
 | | The Barlas were taken from Timur and entrusted to a son of Tughluk, along with the rest of Mawarannahr; but he was defeated in battle by the bold warrior he had replaced at the head of a numerically far inferior force. |
