They invaded Europe about 1237 under the leadership of Bata See also:Khan, a younger son of Juji, eldest son of Jenghiz Khan, passed over Russia with slaughter and destruction, and penetrated into See also:Silesia, See also:Poland and See also:Hungary, finally defeating See also:- HENRY

Henry II., See also:duke of Silesia, at See also:Liegnitz in the See also:battle known as the Wahlstatt on the 9th of See also:April 1241. So costly was this victory, however, that Bata, finding he could not reduce See also:Neustadt, retraced his steps and established himself in his magnificent See also:tent (whence the name " golden") on the See also:Volga. The new See also:settlement was known as See also:Sir Orda (" Golden See also:Camp," whence " Golden Horde "). Very rapidly the See also:powers of Bata extended over the See also:Russian princes, and so See also:long as the khanate remained in the See also:direct descent from Bata nothing occurred to check the growth of the empire. The names of Bata's successors are Sartak (1256), Bereke (Baraka) (1256-1266), Manga-Timar (1266-128o), Tada Manga (1280-1287), (?) Tala Bugha (1287-1290), Toktu (1290-1312), Uzbeg (1312-1340), See also:Tin-Beg (1340), Jani-Beg (1340-1357). The See also:death of Jani-Beg, however, threw the empire into confusion. See also:Birch-Beg (Berdi-Beg) only reigned for two years, after which two rulers, calling themselves sons of Jani-Beg occupied the See also:throne during one See also:year. From that See also:- TIME (0. Eng. Lima, cf. Icel. timi, Swed. timme, hour, Dan. time; from the root also seen in " tide," properly the time of between the flow and ebb of the sea, cf. O. Eng. getidan, to happen, " even-tide," &c.; it is not directly related to Lat. tempus)

time (1359) till 1378 no single ruler held the whole empire under See also:control, various members of the other branches of the old See also:house of Juji assuming the See also:title. At last in 1378 Toktamish, of the Eastern Kipchaks, succeeded in ousting all rivals, and establishing himself as ruler of eastern and western Kipchak. For a See also:short time the See also:glory of the Golden Horde was renewed, until it was finally crushed by Pimur in 1395•
