‘The Timurid and Turkmen rule of eastern Anatolia, Iran, and central Asia (1370-1506[ce]).

The world-conqueror Timur Leng (Tamurlane)[,] in spite of his Muslim commitment, inflicted as great a damage on the lands which he subdued between 1370 and 1405* from Transoxiana to Turkey and Syria as had the Mongols 150 years earlier. At his death in 1405** he was leading a great army to the conquest of China where the first emperor of the Ming dynasty Hung Wu was as ruthless a general as himself; both rulers, however, were builders and patrons of the traditional arts.’
