Years: 1258 - 1258

Sartaq had been succeeded briefly by Ulaqchi, before his uncle Berke, Batu Khan’s brother, succeeds to the throne as the second khan of the Blue Horde. (It is not clear whether Ulaqchi had been his brother or his son.)

Following the destruction of the Abbasid caliphate by the Il-Khanid Mongols, the Mamluks conclude a treaty with Berke, who is a recently converted Muslim.
