Tuda Möngke

The Khan Tuda Möngke ruled the Golden Horde between 1280 and 1287.

The brother and successor Möngke Timur made little appearance, he mainly dealt with the religious things of Islam and was constantly surrounded by clergy. After all, he settled the differences with the great khan Kubilai and was confirmed by him as khan of the Golden Horde (1283). He also changed embassies with Egypt .

Tuda Möngke was formally the Khan of the Golden Horde, but not the only ruler. Because Prince Noqai had great influence within the government, Prince Tulabugha was already referred to by Russian sources as the Khan, and Prince Qonichi in Siberia was largely independent. In addition, the widow Möngke Timur, Gigek Hatun still represented the interests of her clan. Here began a temporary division of supreme power that lasted until 1299.

Eventually Tuda Möngke was deposed because of "mental illness". He was allegedly tired of the government and renounced the throne with the consent of all relatives.
