'''Timur''' (April 9th, 1336 – February 7th, 1405) (also known by his nickname '''Tamerlane''' and the '''Sword of Islam''', among other names) was a 14th Century Turko-Mongol military leader who conquered most of the Muslim world, central Asia, and parts of India under his Timurid Empire. His Timurid Empire rivaled the size and power of the Mongolian domain forged by Genghis Khan a century earlier. Tamerlane’s ambition was to rebuild the empire of Genghis Khan whom he idolized.
