The Turko-Mongol Tamerlane marched into Persia after victory over the Golden Horde at Kunduzcha (June 1391) and attacked Shah Mansur, who had rebelled against Mongol rule imposed when Tamerlane overthrew a previous Shah in 1387. On the Plain of Patila near his capital at Shiraz, in modern southern Iran, Mansur was defeated and killed and the Muzaffarid Dynasty came to an end.
