The relationship of the Golden Horde with the Ottomans and the Mamluk Kingdom had always been friendly. After the common enemy appears on stage, these three countries were forced to make an alliance with each other both on political and military issues since these countries were located closely and the common enemy were threatining all of them. While Ilhanid posed a threat for these countries in the XIII-XIV centuries, after the end of the XIV. Century, Timur and his expeditions started to be dangerous for these countries.
