THE INTERNATIONAL SITUATION IN THE MIDDLE EAST BEFORE THE CONFLICT BETWEEN AMIR TEMUR AND YILDIRIM BAYEZID

Abstract

The article examines the political situation in the Middle East at the end of the 14th - beginning of the 15th centuries. The place and role of Amir Temur in the history of the region is analyzed. As a result of the military campaigns of Amir Temur, carried out in 1399-1404, such large cities of Syria as Aleppo (Aleppo), Khums, Baalbek (Baalbak), Dimishk (Damascus) and the Iraqi territories of Ubuliston (old Cappadocia), Baghdad were conquered, as and most of Turkey.

Amir Temur's long-term campaigns in the regions of the Near and Middle East had important military and political significance in the history of the region. First of all, the carefully developed military-strategic plan was fully implemented and the small scattered feudal lords of these regions were united into a strong centralized state.

This shows that Amir Temur was very careful about his political actions. Do not falsify the history of Amir Temur in pursuit of certain political interests. Further new research should provide a true assessment of the history of this region. New historical research requires a fundamental rethinking of the political, socio-economic views of Amir Temur. It is impossible to fully understand the true goals of the future without correct coverage of history, without a true assessment of the merits of historical figures. In this sense, it is extremely important to study the life and work of Amir Temur, who liberated our country from the Mongol oppression that had dominated for several centuries, built an independent country and turned it into one of the strongest and leading countries in the world.
