Evita Peron

Famous for shortly being the spiritual leader of her country, she unfortunately died of cancer at the age of 33 years. While equalizing her husband with Jesus Christ, she became popular among the labourers, due to her efforts on combatting poverty: Was she inspired by a fled Adolf Hitler?

Peronism was related to Falangism, initially considered to be a fascist movement, whose symbol can be traced back to the Etrurians & is also been used for republican purposes, for example in the American Senate. On her Rainbow Tour, she was warmly welcomed by Francisco Franco & received a rosary from Eugenio Pacelli, also known as Hitler's Pope, although he condemned the persecution of Jews, as initially acknowledged:

• Why did he help people as Adolf Eichmann & Joseph Mengele to flee to Argentina?
• Why did that acknowledgement change around the time of the Second Vatican Council?

Meanwhile a military coup expelled her widower from power, but almost twenty years later he returned for a short term until his death. A few years later, a musical was produced about the life of his second wife, almost twenty years later resulting in a production with Madonna Ciccone & Jonathan Pryce as the main movie stars: Can its narrator be identified as Ernesto Guevara?

The Welshman also acted in Two Popes as the first Argentinian pope, who confessed his controversial role during the junta to Anthony Hopkins, who acted as the second pope & forgives him. Although his health deteriorated, Jorge Bergoglio remained in office till his death: Did Vatileaks rather led to the abdication of Jospeh Ratzinger?

Nostradamus might have attributed the Prophecy of the Popes to Saint Malachy, wherein Benedictus XVI is considered to be the penultimate pope: Is Franciscus I, who refered to Evita by wearing golden-stitched chasubles during his priesthood, thus the Last Pope?

Rudolf Hess

Initially appointed as the deputy of Adolf Hitler, he flew to Scotland in an attempt to achieve peace, exactly one year after Fall Gelb was initiated. Although Germany only wanted to stop the atrocities against its minorities in the western part of Prussia & Posen, the members of the Entente Cordiale declared war due to the invasion of the free city of Danzig & Poland. After retreating from Scandinavia, Fall Rot drove them ultimately out of the continent:

• The Miracle of Dunkirk was a actually rather a peace gesture to relieve the BEF
• The Battle of Britain was a retaliation for bombings of residential areas by the RAF

After the Soviet Union conquered many regions between the Baltic & Black seas, the strategic pact stood under pressure: Operation Thunder threatened an exhausted Wehrmacht. That's why Germany still wanted to achieve peace with the United Kingdom, whose SIS might have taken advantage of the situation by misleading our deputy: Did the victorious Masons twist that history to obscure their malevolence?

Born close to the sunken Thonis, also the nearby Great Pyramid & Fort Babylon might have inspired him to become a member of the Thule Society: Did Anatoly Fomenko actually describe the fall of Atlantis, mentioned as the fall of Babylon in the book of Revelation, which in mainstream history is disguised as the fall of the western part of the Roman Empire?

Long before Thonis sunk, Egypt got attacked by the so called Sea Peoples, of whom the author of Oera Linda claims they came from Frisia, in whose surroundings Eelco de Boer could find traces of different mythologies:

• Was the submergence of Doggerland actually the tale of Atlantis?
• Did it inspire cartographers to locate Frisland in the Atlantic Ocean?

The submerged Aldland rather resembles Hyperborea, where the grietman Apol might have been the original for the godhead Apollo:

• Located on many leylines, the needle of Apel also hints to this thought: Did the tales of Hyperborea & Atlantis actually mix up with each other?
• Helena Blavatsky described Hyperboreans as golden colored, living where the midnight sun could be noticed: Did those of Thule & Hyperborea mix up too?

After his final flight over Doggerland, our dove of peace got imprisoned for the rest of his life, till his so called suicide: Is the song Gold actually a hymn to his peaceful soul?

Paul Kruger

Known for lending his family name to the most famous national park in the RSA, he was a devout calvinist that claimed the earth is flat. During his presidency between the Boer Wars the country flourished again, but the discovery of gold deposits stimulated Cecil Rhodes to organise the Jameson Raid, which failed. Soon a war followed, bit played by Winston Churchill & Mahatma Gandhi, that ultimately ended the independence of the OVS & ZAR: Where did the Kruger Millions go?

Michael Tellinger suggests Anunnaki once resided near those gold deposits. A flat earth is surrounded by an Ice Wall, wherethrough gates connect with other worlds. Neuschwabenland is directly situated on the opposite side of the ocean south of Africa:

• Did Anunnaki infiltrate our world from there?
• Did Aryans escape our world along there?

After the failure of Operation Highjump, a Haunebu might have crashed near Roswell, precededly even have flown over Los Angeles & later some craft over the White House. Soon Operation Argus followed, which preceded the Antarctic Treaty: Did its atomic bombs actually destroy the impregnable fortress the successor of Adolf Hitler quoted about?

Already initiated after the second Boer War, the policy of Apartheid became more prominent after the second World War, reaching a climax after the Antarctic Treaty was signed: Did the country of the Springbok inherit a spirit of White Supremacy?

It got Nelson Mandela imprisoned, of whom Fiona Broome & many more believed he died there: Did he actually die, being replaced by a duplicate Freemason to contribute to a White Genocide?

Rudolf Steiner claimed Aryans, often associated with the Caucasian Race, were remnants of the population of Atlantis, which lent its name to the ocean stretching from Hyperborea to Neuschwabenland: Did they also enter our world there & are many old megalithic structures, like pyramids, remnants of the civilization they brought with them?

The Nilotic Meridian passes near Giza, as well as Great Zimbabwe & Adam's Calendar, which is situated near Machadodorp, whereto Uncle Paul initially retreated after the loss of Pretoria: How are Anunnaki & Aryans connected to each other?

Hulagu Khan

Sent by his brother along the Silk Road to conquer the Fertile Crescent, he captured the city bestowed by God, but the prompt need to attend a kurultai allowed the Mamluks to defeat the Mongols. His name is similar to his uncle's from the Chagatai Khanate & a chanyu of the Xiongnu Empire, as well with Ulugh Muhammad & Ulugh Beg, also astronomer & grandson of a great conqueror. Since proof for the historicity of the Mongol Empire is lacking, which biography might serve as the original for those partial duplicates?

The defeat near Ain Jalut might have been duplicated as the siege of Constantinopolis: Oleg the Wise also couldn't capture it, but before he managed to capture Kiev, a feat repeated by Batu Khan, who also promptly had to attend a kurultai. The founder of the Golden Horde is known as the successor of Genghis Khan in the New Chronology, which identifies Ryurik as a partial duplicate of the great conqueror. As well as Baghdad, the city of Kyi is situated at a major river through its Mesopotamia: Is one of those cities actually a transposed duplicate?

The city on the major eastern river in mainstream Mesopotamia was also conquered from Turkestan by Seljuks & Timurids, resulting in similar empires to the Ilkhanate: Are those realms duplicates in history?

The tale of the Mongol Empire seems to resemble the reconquista of Baetica, wherein battles of the house of Atil might have been duplicated as follows:

• Starting with Las Navas = Yehuling
• Ending with Salé = Ain Jalut

Alfonso the Wise too was an astronomer & also fought against the fellow believers of Berke Khan: Is he also a partial duplicate?

The civil war with Berke Khan might be fictional & have been duplicated as the conflict between Batu Khan & Guyuk Khan. Oleg stams from Helgu, Batu might, besides firm, also mean West, a combination of this information then leads to Saint Peter: Was Ivan Danilovich his real name, as the New Chronology proposes?

Kaaba Allah

The origins of the Kaaba might be unclear, but in one of its corners the Hajar-al-Aswad can be found, which supposedly fell from heaven, as happened with Moses' tablets: Did it once belong to the Ark of the Covenant?

According to the New Chronology, those stones are remnants of an iron meteorite, allowing the production of Damascus Steel, which was distributed in boxes through the world-empire, supporting an ataman conquest of the Promised Land, possibly reflected by the following partial duplicates:

• Moses = Muhammad = Mehmed I & Murad II = ...
• Joshua = Umar & Uthman = Mehmed II = ...

After being expelled from the Golden Horde, Ulugh Muhammad undertook a Hijra or Exodus to Kazan, the capital of contemporary Tatarstan, wherefrom a military campaign was started: Could such a box have been brought to Arabia Petrea & later to its contemporary location?

According to the Book of Civilization, Islam was only proclaimed as official religion in the Ottoman Empire by Ahmed I, during the Time of Troubles. Muhammad is considered to be the initiator of Islam, but even its holy book mentions Ahmad as the successor of Jesus Christ: Dictionary Merriam Webster registers the earliest use of words, should a millenial shift be applied here?

The Masjid-al-Haram is supposedly built by Abraham, but its polytheistic past & a gold dish with an inscription of Vikramaditya suggest it originally was a shrine for Hindus. It's the only mosque where circumambulation is practiced, a habit common in temples dedicated to Shiva: Do Muslims inherit polytheistic practices & unconsciously worship a destroyer?

The Kiswah turns the shrine into a Black Cube, similar to the iron altar in the meditation room of the United Nations. During the last decades, many appeared worldwide & one has also been discovered on the north pole of Saturn, while practicing Jews use Tefillin: Are we unconsciously dealing with a worldwide conspiracy?

Adam Kadmon

The first chapter in the book of Genesis mentions that Elohim created the earthly realm, as well as men & women in their image. Cuneiform tablets mention Enlil as separator of heaven & earth, as well as being creator of plant & animal life, but Enki is credited as the creator of mankind: Do these tablets confirm the polytheistic situation on the first pages of the Bible?

Those Anunnaki seem to have been interested in mining gold, which they mainly found in the far south of Africa, where the research of Michael Tellinger suggests the regional stone ruins to be remnants of the oldest known civilization, whose artwork seems to have been inherited by Sumer & Egypt. His conclusion corresponds with the research of Zecharia Sitchin, who claims those aliens arrived around that time. Being annoyed of working, a decision was made to create a terrestrial labor force:

• Do cultural depictions of mixed creatures hint to genetic engineering in the quest for an optimal specie?
• Is the noncoding DNA in Homo Sapiens actually desactivated divine genome?

The writers of Enuma Elish later adapted the story, wherein Marduk is portrayed as union of Enlil & Enki: He beats the Igigi, who look like Nāga & were led by Kingu, whose blood & brain were mixed with clay to create Adapa, what might be an attempt to explain the evil part present in people. As possible duplicate of Nimrod, he might have created the Tower of Babel in the Garden of Eden: Is he the monotheistic character on the following pages of the Bible?

The second chapter in the book of Genesis indeed mentions one God, who first created a man out of clay, followed by a woman out of one of his ribs. The confusion with its first chapter contributed to the emergence of the story of Lilith: Created out of loam, she disobeyed Adam & even married Ahriman. Disguised as a Nāgi, she revisited the so called paradise to offer the Forbidden Fruit. Although depicted as evil by Yahweh, her role mirrors Enki, but she rather resembles Inanna: Is she a possible duplicate of Ishtar?

The first chapter in the book of Genesis was interpreted by the philosophers of Kabbalah as God creating an androgynous being of light in the spiritual world, out of a vacuum He caused within the infinite light: Might the idea of a universe existing within a multiverse have originated here?

Promised Land

Although Palestine has a rather arid climate, the so called land flowing with milk & honey was promised by Yahweh to the Jews & supposedly conquered under the leadership of Joshua. After the many diasporas that followed, Zionism encouraged Jews to return to the land where an Ashkenazi family seems to have bought the holy city in 1829:

• Pogroms in the Pale of Settlement: Only a minority of Jews fled yet to Palestine, whereas the majority rather moved to America, where some families even founded Hollywood
• Balfour Declaration near the end of the Great War: Shortly before the Battle of Jerusalem, Palestine was promised to the Rothschilds as a homeland for Jews
• Transfer Agreement between NSDAP & ZVD: Adolf Hitler offered Jews an opportunity to exchange Germany for Palestine, in which around 60.000 of them seem to have participated

As written earlier, professor Finkelstein concluded the Jews couldn't have conquered the region we now know as Palestine. The New Chronology situates the land flowing with milk & honey roughly between Golden Ring & Golden Horn:

• Galilee might be the region around Lake Galichskoye, where Jesus Christ could have walked on ice during winter
• Samaria might be identified as Sarmatia, where once the Khazarian Diarchy ruled
• Judea might be situated around the Bosporus, where Sabbatai Zevi declared himself messiah

As such the location of the holy city is closer to the seven churches of Asia & the towns that received epistles from Paul. The New Chronology considers the now known holy city to be a hoax created after the collapse of the former world-empire & the crusade of Napoleon: Did the Rothschilds sponsor the alteration of history by fabricating propaganda to avenge the trial of Sabbatai Zevi?

According to Gnosis, their deity Yahweh has then been propagandised being the Lord, but actually is the Demiurge: Might the so called god of this world then be Satan, as for example portrayed in the book of Job?

Cali Fornia

A few times even mapped as an island, in Las Sergas de Espandiàn it was described as a kind of Eden or Atlantis, where Queen Calafia reigned over black women who lived as Amazons:

• These horsewomen are considered to originate from the southern shores of the Black Sea, probably also reached its northern shores as Sarmatians
• Their most famous queens supposedly fought in the Trojan War, also against Atlantians & even met Alexander the Great

Garci Rodríguez de Montalvo might have been inspired by the Song of Roland, written after the battle near the Ronceveaux Pass, where Califerne is considered as an opposing power, a name that might have been derived from the words Caliph or Kar-i-farn. Queen Calafia supported Muslims with a large flock of griffins in a battle against Christians @ Constantinopolis: Does this episode refer to a medieval Trojan War?

The successor of Georgiy Danilovich is Ivan Danilovich, nicknamed Kalita, the first Caliph in the New Chronology. According the mainstream history, the Muslims quickly conquered a big territory, similar to the Mongols about six centuries later: Are these conquests actually duplicates of an emerging Tartarian Empire, whose flag contains a griffin, the sacred animal of the Sarmatians?

The New Chronology & World-Systems Analysis suggest the existence of a world-empire, stretching over vast parts of the northern hemisphere, in the New World extended into the southern hemisphere along the highlands. The Amazon Basin inherited its name from a fight between the army of Francisco de Orellana & local female warriors: Was a yet seceded Rimland colonizing former territories of a once unified Tartarian Empire?

While California seems to have been explored before, only around the time of the defeat of Yemelyan Pugachev colonizers started to settle there, especially during the Gold Rush. The Panama - Pacific International Exposition showed supposedly quickly erected advanced architecture: Was the city @ the Golden Gate actually a stronghold of a former world-empire that had to be erased, perhaps nine years earlier already helped by the abuse of an invention of Nikola Tesla?

Prester John

Emperor Manuel Komnenos once semeed to have received a letter containing knowledge about Thomas the Apostle & Alexander the Great. Pope Alexander the Third then reacted strategically by writing a letter to its supposed sender, but it's uncertain Philip the Physician was able to deliver it. The original letter describes a wonderful kingdom, stretching over three so called Indias: Might they be identified as the three Hordes, where three Kings rule?

The New Chronology identifies the legendary patriarch as the so called Batu Khan, who they claim to be a younger brother of the so called Genghis Khan: Was the so called Mongol Empire the great eastern nation of the patriarch around the Golden Ring?

The Mirabilia Descripta describes the legendary patriarch as ruler of Ethiopia, an idea that seemed to have entered the collective consciousness by the time of the Samalas Eruption: Did some Hordians flee there, as well as to Manchuria & Afghanistan, after the Time of Troubles, offering another possibility for identifying three Indias with duplicated histories?

The Temple of Doom shows Indiana Jones was hired to retrieve the remains of Nurhaci, but he escaped over the Himalayas to defeat the Thuggee. From that mountain range, he started his quest for the Ark of the Covenant, which might be kept guarded nearby the Ethiopian Highlands: Do these plots hint to Abyssinia, Bharat & Zhongguó as three Indias?

Going back in time about one millenium from the mentioned letters, we might stumble upon three duplicates of the prester:

• John the Presbyter: Supposed writer of the second & third epistle of John
• John the Apostle: Supposed writer of a gospel & the first epistle of John
• John of Patmos: Supposed writer of the book of Revelation

Might John te Baptist be the fourth Musketeer among the mentioned duplicates?

Dmitry Donskoy

Taking advantage of rivalries within the Golden Horde, the proclaimed saint beat commander Mamai at Kulikovo, which resulted in a vast expansion of his territory & more unity among the many principalities in Russia. A geographical analysis by the New Chronology suggests Kulishki to be the location of the battle, which historically might have been duplicated even 30 times ...

Barfolomey Kirillovich blessed the victor of the battle beforehand, cause under his reign a lot of monasteries were build to stimulate the cultivation of land & growth of Russia: In Moscow he contributed to the founding of the fortified monasteries of Simonov & Andronikov, where many warriors of the mentioned battle have been buried. The monastic quarter near the latter one produced bricks to build the kremlin, according to the research of the New Chronology the actual reconstruction of Jerusalem ...

The monastery of Donskoy has been build about 200 years later, after establishing a victory in battle over the Crimean Khanate, which about 600 years earlier formed, together with the territories conquered by Ivan Vasilyevich, the known territory of the Golden Horde. If we take the chronological shift of 100 years into account, it brings us back to the stand on the river Ugra, another 100 years to the river Moskva, another 400 years to the river Atil. The New Chronology identifies Sviatoslav Igorevich as a duplicate of Dmitry Ivanovich: Does the duplicated battle near Kulishki actually represent the decisive victory over the Khazar Khaganate?

Originally the Khazars confessed Tengrism, but later they mainly converted to Judaism, influenced by trading activities in the region: Yahweh might be identified as the Demiurge, usually equivalent to Saturn, but described as his son Jupiter by occultists Aleister Crowley & Manly Palmer Hall. The New Chronology adds a divine aspect to the battle near Kulishki & identifies Constantinus Magnus as a duplicate of Dmitry Ivanonvich: Whoever the creator of the physical world might be associated with, did the battle symbolize a victory of spirituality over materialism?

Kara Korum

Khar Khorin literally translates as "Black Twenty", but another translation is probably more appropriate: "Black Castle" & "Black Rock" are among the best bets. Although only two Bixi can be seen there, the meadow around the Erdene Zuu Monastery is considered to be the capital of the Mongol Empire. Nearby, similar ruins of rectangular walls can be found, from north to south:

• Por Bazhyn
• Ordu Baliq
• Kara Khoto

Kara Bator literally translates as "Black Hero" & was the last legendary ruler of the southernmost of these ruins. A Khagan seemed to have held court in a golden yurt on top of a citadel in Khar Balgas, meaning "Black Ruins": Is that citadel actually a kremlin of the Golden Horde & did the story get duplicated to what we today know as Mongolia?

Helena Blavatsky claims the northernmost of these ruins to be the northern gate to Shambhala, now a toponym near the Khamar Monastery: Did Aryans found the kingdom in Tartary, interrupting their migration from Hyperborea to India?

That spiritual kingdom is usually associated with Agartha, possibly a network of caves underneath Tibet, inhabited by Asuras, similar in the following traditions:

• Ahuras in Persia, where they play the opposite role
• Ashur in Assyria, the chief deity of its pantheon
• Aesir in Scandinavia, who originated from Asia

This pattern corresponds with the migration of what became the Khazar nobility along the Khazar Sea towards Europe: Did Zoroaster lay the foundations for the Abrahamic religions of western Eurasia & northern Africa?

Batu Khan

Known as the grandson of Genghis Khan, he extended the Mongol Empire north of the Khazar Sea, comparable to the realm of Attila the Hun: He conquered Kievan Rus & invaded Central Europe. According to the New Chronology, he's a duplicate of:

• Yaroslav Vladimirovich
• Yaroslav Vsevolodovich
• Ivan Danilovich

Yaroslav derives from Yarilo, who is also identified with Saint John, which becomes Ivan in Russian ...

The mainstream known territory of the Golden Horde is approximately equal to the Khazar Khaganate, both having Astrakhan as its possible capital, making their histories possible duplicates: Might its name refer to arrows used during their raids?

The mainstream known territory of the Golden Ring had to pay tribute to the Golden Horde. However, for the New Chronology, both are duplicates: Did mainstream historians use the Khazar Khaganate as inspiration for a Mongol Yoke?

According to mainstream history, the Golden Horde was later split into an eastern & western part, though it isn't clear which colour fits which compass point. The New Chronology, rejectants of that Mongol Yoke, suggests another division:

• Golden Horde: Great Russia or the Golden Ring, refering to the many golden onion domes
• Blue Horde: Little Russia or the Ukraine, crossed by many rivers, similar to Mesopotamia
• White Horde: White Ruthenia or the Muscovite Russia, where the "White Tsar" ruled

The White Horde stretched to Belarus, Prussia & the Balkan Peninsula: Did Batu Khan & his Venedi continue the conquest of his grandfather by reaching as far as Baetica & the Vatican? Another concentric circle of cities around Vladimir fits that suggestion ...

Attila the Hun

Know as the "Scourge of God", he conquered an empire ranging from the Roman Limes to the Ural Mountains: The European part of the Heartland, extending from Hungary to Yugra, comparable to the territory of the Golden Horde at its peak. On his way to Aurelianum, he got defeated for the first time on the Catalaunian Plains. His name is similar to a Khazar capital & another name for the Volga river:

• Switching vowels might turn it into Ital(ia)
• Reversing consonants might turn it into Lati(um)

In Romance languages, a royal dynasty ruling the region of the Во́лга river might be translated as 'Casa Итиль': It can be contracted to Castil(ia), which on itself leads to 'castle'. It arises the following questions:

• Mainstream history tells us he didn't conquer any part of the Rimland, but might Catalaunia be Catalonia?
• The origins of the Etruscans are unknown: Could they be 'ET-Rus-Khans', or Khazar nobility?

We might make the following comparison with the wars of Carolus Magnus:

• The immigration of the Etruscans = The suppression of the Lombards
• The battle on the Catalaunian Plains = The battle of the Ronceveaux Pass

According to Heribert Illig, this phantom character never existed: So where did the inspiration for the story of this 'Great King' come from? From the 'Genghis Khan' who, according to the New Chronology, conquered Europe? He might have built castles to maintain control, helped by his brother Khasar?

John the Baptist

As a cleansing rite, John baptised Jesus, an act inspiring some Christians as follows:

• In his First Corinthian Epistle, Paul compared it with the Exodus: Mozes & his people crossing יַם-סוּף meant purification
• According to apostle Simon, it's similar to the Deluge: Noah & his family were purified after floating on the water

Like many other Jewish celebrities, his mother gave birth on a rather high age, after being infertile for a while: A sign for an important life protected by the Holy Spirit. As the character of Jesus might be a mixture of Andrey Bogolyubsky & Andronikos Komnenos, the New Chronology suggests John's might be one of those of:

• Saint Leontius & Saint Theodore from the Golden Ring
• Alexios Branas & John Komnenos from the Golden Horn

The baptist worked near Αἰνών in בֵּית עַנְיָה. Before becoming emperor, Andronikos Komnenos lived on his ancestral estates in Οἰνόη: Is the same town mentioned? Paintings suggest a fertile working habitat, not a desert: Should we rather understand the deserted countryside?

Lazarus originated from Bethany & moved to Kition: According to the New Chronology, Jesus installed him as a bishop in the 中國城市 before going to Царьград, where he cleansed the Temple. The priests plotted against him, making him flee from Jerusalem to Bethany, where he got baptised in Aenon: Are we talking about Oinaion in Bithynia?

Criticizing the unlawful marriage of Herodes Antipas got the baptist imprisoned: His influence on the people was feared. Inspired by her mother, Salome requested the head of the baptist, but according to Flavius Josephus he just might have been executed. According to Muslims, his skull is kept in the الْجَامِع الْأُمَوِي, but other sanctuaries also claim to keep his relics ...

Mongol Empire

In my former post, I mentioned the existence of a world-empire before it collapsed into the world-economy we know today. Our mainstream history teaches us the existence of such an empire near the end of the Middle Ages, the greatest one ever existing, the Mongol Empire.

Mainstream history describes the Mongols as being a bunch of nomadic tribes roaming around Tartary, using bow & arrow in conflict while riding horses. Once united under Temujin, in about 20 years they managed to conquer a territory ranging over the Eurasian Steppes between the Caspian & Japanese Sea. The following 50 years, their offspring added more parts of Russia, Persia & China to the realm, resulting in the greatest world-empire ever conquered on landmasses. Horses might allow a quick conquest, but how did nomads adapt so quickly to change their lifestyle from cattle-breeders to empire-managers?

Initially they lacked a real capital, but later Ögedei upgraded Karakorum. Today we find Erdene Zuu Khiid on the spot, but remnants of the former city are almost absent: Where are the foundations of the Silver Tree & Great Palace on the meadow?

For example, in Rome, another capital of a former world-empire, we find much more remnants, supposed to be much older. I would rather expect the opposite, so is that remote spot in Mongolia the real location of their former capital?

The conquest went smooth until the battle of Ain Jalut: The smaller Mamluk Sultanate pushed the greater Mongol Empire back. According to mainstream history this was a turning point in the conquest & must have felt as king David defeated giant Goliath again, or was that story just a tale?

The reason for the pushback was the war about the succession of Möngke, resulting in the partitioning of the world-empire. Although Kublai was successful in claiming the throne, the central authority over the different parts was waning, especially in the most remote region of the Golden Horde. The transfer of the capital to Khanbaliq only contributed to the defragmentation of the greatest world-empire ...
