We're talking about the Shaybanid Empire! How did Shaybani Khan take Samarkand? Find out on Steppe by Steppe!
Join us as Steppe by Steppe explores the dramatic rise of Muhammad Shaybani Khan, the ambitious Uzbek leader who capitalized on the chaos of the fading Timurid Empire. Trace his path from mercenary to ruler as he unified Uzbek tribes and seized control of Central Asia's crown jewels: Samarkand and Bukhara, founding the powerful Shaybanid Dynasty.
This episode dives into Shaybani's takeover of Samarkand in 1501. We contrast this pivotal moment with the city's earlier, devastating history, like the infamous Mongol sack of 1220. Shaybani's approach earned our title: 'Less Sack, More Steppe'. Far from destroying the city, the Shaybanids established it as a crucial center and left their own architectural mark, contributing to its revival.
Learn about his strategic rule, religious emphasis, and the fierce rivalry with the rising Safavid Empire that ultimately sealed his fate at the Battle of Merv.
