Yuan Dynasty family tree

The following is the Yuan dynasty family tree.

Genghis Khan founded the Mongol Empire ("yeke mongghul ulus"), and his grandson Kublai Khan, who inherited the grand-khanship, named his domain "Dai-ön yeke mongghul ulus". Although Toghun Temür Khan lost China in 1368, the dynasty was survived in Mongolia. Although the khanship was usurped by Esen of the Oirats in 1453, he was overthrown in the next year. A recovery of the ulus was achieved by Dayan Khan, but the territory was segmented by his descendants. The last khan Lingdan died in 1634 and his son Ejei Khongghor submitted himself to Hong Taiji. This event prompted him to establish the new dynasty of the Qing.

Note that one may find different versions of the family tree because Mongolia was in turmoil in the 15th century. For the genealogy of the early Northern Yuan, see:
*Wada Sei 和田清. "Tōashi Kenkyū (Mōko Hen)" 東亜史研究 (蒙古編). Tokyo, 1959.
*Honda Minobu 本田實信. "On the genealogy of the early Northern Yüan", Ural-Altaische Jahrbücher, XXX-314, 1958.
*Okada Hidehiro 岡田英弘. "Dayan Hagan no nendai" ダヤン・ハガンの年代. Tōyō Gakuhō, Vol. 48, No. 3 pp. 1-26 and No. 4 pp. 40-61, 1965.
*Okada Hidehiro 岡田英弘. "Dayan Hagan no sensei" ダヤン・ハガンの先世. Shigaku Zasshi. Vol. 75, No. 5, pp. 1-38, 1966.

Wada Sei did pioneer work on this field, and Honda Minobu and Okada Hidehiro modified it, utilizing newly discovered Persian (Timurid) records and Mongol chronicles.
