Years: 1240 - 1240
Mongol raiders assisted by the Georgians had devastated the Anatolian countryside as far as the walls of Sivas and Malatya in 1236-37.
Since the Mongol horsemen disappeared as quickly as they had come, Kayqubad, Seljuq sultan of Rûm, had moved to punish their Georgian allies.
As the Seljuq army approached, Queen Rusudan of Georgia had sued for peace, offering her daughter Tamar in marriage to Kaykhusraw II, the son of Kayqubad and his Armenian wife.
This marriage takes place in 1240.
