The battle of Ain Jalut

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The battle of Ain Jalut, which took place in 1260, was a significant victory for the Mamluk Sultanate of Egypt over the Mongols. It prevented the Mongol invasion from spreading further westward, ensuring that Turkey remained free of Mongol rule. It did not bring peace to Spain, nor did it lead to the death of the Islamic caliph in 1250. While the Turks did gain access to Asia Minor, it was not their first time as they had already established a presence there. Additionally, the battle did not directly lead to the establishment of the Rum Sultanate in eastern Asia Minor.
