Baraq (Khan of Golden Horde)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Baraq was Khan of the Golden Horde from 1422 to 1427. He took support from Ulugh Beg, the Timurid khan, and in 1422 he dethroned Olug Moxammat, the previous Khan of the Golden Horde. However, he was defeated in 1427 by Olug Moxammat and was promptly assassinated by Abu'l-Khayr Khan, the Khan of the Shaybanids who claimed the steppe between the Ural and Syr Darya rivers for his dynasty.
