Mongolia: Mulan Khan, Khagan of the Northern Yuan Dynasty (1465-66).

Mulan Khan (d.1466), was the Mongol Khan of the Northern Yuan Dynasty in Mongolia and he was the eldest son of Tayisung Khan, Emperor Taizong of Northern Yuan. Mulan Khan succeeded his younger brother Markorgis Khan in 1465, but due to lack of real power, he was killed by warring Mongol nobles who fought each other for dominance. After his death, the position of great khan remained vacant for nearly a decade as warring Mongol clans fought each other for power, and it was not until finally in 1475, that Manduul Khan (Manduyul) was finally crowned as the next khan.
