Journal Title: Gazi Akademik Bakış - Year 2008, Vol 2, Issue 3

Abstract

Although both are Turkic states, it is impossible to feature the Golden Horde and the Ottoman State as allies especially in historical and culturel aspects. Nonetheless the threat of Aksak Timur made two states become close and they made an alliance between themselves and with other regional powers against this coercion. But being late to make an alliance, the despising of the danger by the block of alliances and the rational policies of Timur made the alliance unsuccessful. Consequently two states were defeated by Timur. Timur’s shock and the struggle for the throne let the state to the collapse. It is known that Golden Horde and Ottoman rulers were hold correspondence after this period. Moreover in his Bitik which Ahmed Khan the ruler of Golden Horde send to Fatih Sultan Mehmed it was mentioned that he is ready to accept the regency of the Ottoman state against the Russian danger. But the lack of relations between the Ottoman State and the Golden Horde and her legatees -except the Crimean Khanate- simplified the Russian rule over these Khanates. Later on the growth and expansion of Russia caused problems for Ottoman State.
