Gulf News 2012-10-18The Ilkhanate, also spelled Il-khanate (Mongolian: Хүлэгийн улс Hülegü-yn Ulus Persian: سلسله ایلخانی), was a Mongol khanate, established in Azerbaijan and Persia in the 13th century, considered a part of the Mongol Empire. The Ilkhanate was based, originally, on Genghis Khan's campaigns in the Khwarezmid Empire in 1219–1224, and founded by Genghis's grandson, Hulagu, in territories which today comprise most of Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Turkmenistan, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Turkey, and Pakistan. The Ilkhanate initially embraced many religions, but was particularly sympathetic to Buddhism and Christianity. Later Ilkhanate rulers, beginning with Ghazan in 1295, embraced Islam.
According to the historian Rashid-al-Din Hamadani, Kublai granted Hulagu (Hulegu) the title of Ilkhan after his defeat of Ariq Boke. The term il-Khan means "subordinate khan" and refers to their initial deference to Möngke Khan and his successor Great Khans of the entire empire. The title "Ilkhan", borne by the descendants of Hulagu and later another Borjigin princes in Persia, does not materialize in the sources until after 1260.
Genghis Khan (/ˈɡɛŋɡɪs ˈkɑːn/ or /ˈdʒɛŋɡɪs ˈkɑːn/,Mongol: [tʃiŋɡɪs xaːŋ] ( listen); 1162? – August 1227), born Temujin, was the founder and Great Khan (emperor) of the Mongol Empire, which became the largest contiguous empire in history after his death.
He came to power by uniting many of the nomadic tribes of northeast Asia. After founding the Mongol Empire and being proclaimed "Genghis Khan", he started the Mongol invasions that resulted in the conquest of most of Eurasia. These included raids or invasions of the Kara-Khitan Khanate, Caucasus, Khwarezmid Empire, Western Xia and Jin dynasties. These campaigns were often accompanied by wholesale massacres of the civilian populations – especially in Khwarezmia. By the end of his life, the Mongol Empire occupied a substantial portion of Central Asia and China.
Before Genghis Khan died, he assigned Ögedei Khan as his successor and split his empire into khanates among his sons and grandsons. He died in 1227 after defeating the Western Xia. He was buried in an unmarked grave somewhere in Mongolia at an unknown location. His descendants went on to stretch the Mongol Empire across most of Eurasia by conquering or creating vassal states out of all of modern-day China, Korea, the Caucasus, Central Asian countries, and substantial portions of modern Eastern Europe, Russia and the Middle East. Many of these invasions resulted in the large-scale slaughter of local populations, which have given Genghis Khan and his empire a fearsome reputation in local histories.
Hulagu Khan, also known as Hülegü, Hulegu (Mongolian: Hülegü Khaan, "Warrior"; Mongolian Cyrillic: Хүлэг хаан; Turkish: Hülâgü Han; Chagatai/Urdu: ہلاکو Hulaku; Persian/Arabic: هولاكو خان; Chinese: 旭烈兀; c. 1217 – 8 February 1265), was a Mongol ruler who conquered much of Southwest Asia. Son of Tolui and the Kerait princess Sorghaghtani Beki, he was a grandson of Genghis Khan, and the brother of Arik Boke, Möngke Khan and Kublai Khan. Hulagu's army greatly expanded the southwestern portion of the Mongol Empire, founding the Ilkhanate of Persia, a precursor to the eventual Safavid dynasty, and then the modern state of Iran. Under Hulagu's leadership, the Mongols destroyed the greatest center of Islamic power, Baghdad, and also weakened Damascus, causing a shift of Islamic influence to the Mamluks in Cairo. During Hulagu's reign historians began writing in Persian instead of Arabic[citation needed].
Hulagu was born to Tolui, one of Genghis Khan's sons, and Sorghaghtani Beki, an influential Kerait princess. Sorghaghtani successfully navigated Mongol politics, arranging for all of her sons to become Mongol leaders. She was a Nestorian Christian, and Hulagu was friendly to Christianity. Hulagu's favorite wife, Dokuz Khatun, was also a Christian, as was his closest friend and general, Kitbuqa. It is recorded however that he was a Buddhist as he neared his death, against the will of Dokuz Khatun.
I'm as eloquent as an elephant
Bought as headstrong as the Mighty King Kong
On a rampage throwing airplanes
I can't believe you haven't gone away
Gone away
I'm difficult, argumentative
'Bout as thick skulled as the dinosaur bones on a Display in a glass case
I can't believe you haven't run away
Run away
[Chorus:]
It must be different through your eyes
'Cause you look at me like it's the first time
The first time
That you've ever seen my face
I'm preoccupied with a crowded mind
I get off track like a train rolling back to the future
Never too sure
Who'll be here when I come back around
But I'm finding out
[Chorus:]
It must be different through your eyes
'Cause you look at me like it's the first time
The first time
My elegant girl slept on designer sheets
Her sugar free words swayed to a hightech beat
With crazy stories of hatred and hurt
People's feelings were crushed in the dirt
My elegant girl she drips out with the leaves
Gave no interviews in her tennis shoes
Well there's no excuse for infamy
From their college towns
To the overground
People hung on every word she breathed
My elegant girl moved with the hippest crowds
Whose colorful words were bright but never loud
Gave no interviews, in her mohair suits
Well there's no excuse for infamy
From their college towns
To their roundabouts
People hung on every word they breathed
When they're money's gone
What's gonna keep you warm
Can't find anyone to take its place
When you ain't got anything
Except your aspirin
Just remember who you stepped on when
You were an elegant girl
Who cried expensive tears
But now your sugar free words
Mira que es lo que quieres
Tu puedes más, pero no quieres
Toca Habana, oye dice que
Elegante tirando siempre pa' alante
Mátame con solo eso que has hecho
Quizás bonito no seas malito
Arriba ponme a pensar
Elegante echando siempre pa' alante
Mátame con solo eso que has hecho
Quizás bonito no seas malito
Arriba ponme a pensar
Bomba que sofoca el Cocán
No ves que vengo loca?
No me detiene el boca a boca
Y si molesta es porque choco
Ahora calla tu boca
No quiero sonrisas locas
Este es el flow que te rebota
Deja tu lenguota rota
Se mantiene esto es
Pa' ti mis nenes
Sofoco poco a poco todas
Simplifico lo que no va
No quiero que te me alteres
Pero si respeta el vere vere
Que te trae mi gente
Pa' meterte en el retrete
Fino fino, después que tomaste el buen vino
No me vengas a romper las copas
Que en realidad no nos sofoca
Pa' los locos y pa' las locas
Toma nota de mi boca
Elegante tirando siempre pa' alante
Mátame con solo eso que has hecho
Quizás bonito no seas malito
Arriba ponme a pensar
Elegante echando siempre pa' alante
Mátame con solo eso que has hecho
Quizás bonito no seas malito
Arriba ponme a pensar
Vas tu muy deprisa sin saber
A donde puedes llegar con tu forma de ser
Sigues haciendo el cuento
De la buena vida sin parar
Tiras ideas al viento para comprobar
En que sentido sopla, no crees en na
Cada día que pasa te veo peor
Te me estas poniendo como un tenedor
Pica que pica y pica
Y al final no enganchas na
Elegante tirando siempre pa' alante
Mátame con solo eso que has hecho
Quizás bonito no seas malito
Arriba ponme a pensar
Elegante echando siempre pa' alante
Hay pero mátame con solo eso que has hecho
Quizás bonito no seas malito
Arriba ponme a pensar
Como ves aquí el desoye ya empezó
A nadie la policía detuvio
El compacto de la tienda de la tienda ya voló
Hasta tu tatarabuelo lo bailo
Tremendo vele vele vele se formo
Lo siento por el penco que no le gusto
Elegante buscando siempre pa' alante, loca
Hay pero mátame con solo eso que has hecho
Quizás bonito no seas malito
Arriba ponme a pensar
Elegante echando siempre pa' alante
Dice, sigo gateando pa' alante
No creo en los arrogantes
Elegante echando siempre pa' alante, hay
Tu dices que eres la bomba
Ten cuidao con la explosión
Que te mata
Que es lo que pasa contigo? In the left
Que es lo que pasa con contigo? In the right
Que es lo que pasa contigo? In the left
Vas de marcha atrás
Que es lo que pasa con contigo? In the right
Si te gusta bien y sino también
Que es lo que pasa contigo?
Vas de marcha atrás
Que es lo que pasa con contigo?
You took me in, you sold me out
Is that what this was all about?
If I'm not right, I guess I'm wrong
I maybe knew it all along
Chorus:
I'm not crazy, I'm not blind
I'm too elegant to lie
Wash off horror, blushing red
The price of scandal, sin and zen
I'm winning now and losing
The cost of you, the bank resents
I'm not faking our last goodbye
Just a smile and you will fall all over him again
You forget about the pain, the shame...
You're down on your knees again
I guess some people never learn
I see that you are one of them
He makes you happy for one day, then bails on you, what
happens then?
Run off to your friends, and condemn yourself
You should know you play with fire when you love all by
yourself
You should love each other, not hurt one another
Just one night and you will be trapped on her web again
She involves you and revolves you under her nest again
Some people never learn I see you becoming one of them
She gives you pleasure for one day, then bails on you
What happens next?
Run off to your friends, and condemn yourself
You should know you play with fire when you love all by
yourself
You should love each other, not hurt one another
