Upon taking power, Berdi Beg is said to have secured his position by ordering the execution of numerous royal relatives, reportedly up to 12 or more, to eliminate rivals and consolidate authority. His short reign was marked by internal purges and declining central control, signaling the beginning of a major political crisis. After his assassination in 1359, the Golden Horde plunged into a prolonged period of civil war and dynastic chaos, with rapid changes in leadership and the rise of regional warlords, ultimately leading to the fragmentation of the khanate.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"NumisMallstore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50444583207227,"sku":"x9283-58627","price":27.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0447\/1750\/6710\/files\/w58627.jpg?v=1752939601","url":"https:\/\/www.numismall.com\/products\/scarce-ar-dang-of-berdi-beg-1357-59-gulistan-jochid-mongols-golden-horde-s-276","provider":"NumisMall","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
