A proposito di questo titolo

In 1398, Tamerlane turned his gaze from Persia and the steppes toward the wealth of the Delhi Sultanate. This episode follows his march through the Khyber Pass, the sack of Delhi, and the battle with Sultan Mahmud Shah Tughluq at Panipat. We explore why he invaded India (spoiler: it wasn't just loot), the use of war elephants, the massacre of 100,000 prisoners, and the controversial claim that he spared craftsmen and artists. Lucas and Luna also discuss the political fragmentation of the Delhi Sultanate after the Tughluq dynasty, and how Timur's invasion paved the way for the Mughal Empire decades later. Key figures include Sultan Nasir-ud-Din Mahmud Shah Tughluq, Mallu Iqbal Khan, and the Afghan mercenaries who betrayed Delhi. Along the way, we touch on Timur's religious justifications, his use of the Yassa versus sharia law, and the architectural legacy left in Samarkand by Indian artisans.
