Irak Selçukluları Devleti 1120’de resmen kurulduğu andan itibaren

Abstract

Since the Seljuk Sultanate of Iraq was formally established in 1120, the pressureof its commanders on the sultans had reached a level that became intolerableover time, which laid the foundation for the emergence of independent politicalstructures in places like Mosul, Azerbaijan, Arbil, Khuzestan, Shahrizor andMaragha. Among these political structures, Azerbaijan and Ildeniz, who foundedan atabeg principality here, had a special place. Ildeniz became the strongestperson of the whole region in a short time in Nakhchivan, where he went toadminister in 1141, filling the gap created by the deaths of the powerful Seljukcommanders in Azerbaijan. Twenty years later, in 1160, his step son Arslanshahbegan to rule the state on behalf of the Iraqi Seljuks. For nearly 16 years untilhis death in the January of 1176, he successfully accomplished this work. Onthe other hand, he succeeded in establishing a state in Azerbaijan that would beruled by his sons and his grandchildren half a century after himself.
