Iran / Mongolia: Hulagu Khan enthroned, from Rashid Al-Din, 'History of the World', c. 1306-1311 CE

Hulagu Khan, also known as Hulegu or Halaku (c. 1217 8 February 1265), was a Mongol ruler who conquered much of Southwest Asia. Son of Tolui and the Kerait princess Sorghaghtani Beki, he was a grandson of Genghis Khan, and the brother of Arik Boke, Mongke Khan and Kublai Khan.<br/><br/>. Hulagu's army greatly expanded the southwestern portion of the Mongol Empire, founding the Ilkhanate of Persia, a precursor to the eventual Safavid dynasty, and then the modern state of Iran.
