Tamerlán

Tamerlán, also known as Timur, was a Turco-Mongol conqueror who rose to power in the late 14th century and established the Timurid Empire in Central Asia. Renowned for his military prowess and ruthlessness, he is often remembered for his brutal campaigns that resulted in the deaths of millions, including the infamous sack of Delhi in 1398. His legacy is complex, as he was also a patron of the arts and architecture, leaving behind a rich cultural heritage.
