Many imagine Islamic Golden Age's End with the mighty but swift reign of mongols just sweeping across empires and sacking them. And that doesn't exclude what was then Abbasid caliphate.

But honestly After this:
*Seljuks who moved to anatolia and split into small principalities united as Ottoman empire.

*Timur from barlas just repeats almost the same thing as mongols did but as a turk muslim. Timurid's legacy goes beyond transoxiana all the way to India for Babur's empire who will own 25% of world's GDP then.

*While Turkomans go found their Safavid empire and convert whole Sunni Persian population to Shias.

While Ottoman caliphate becomes the greatest empire in Islamic history. Yes they are not perfect but they are the only ones who pushed far beyond what Arabs conquered.
European lands, North Africa and pretty much of entire Middle East. As they say... Turks are assayf-al-Islam, sword of Islam. But the only thing Ottomans never came close is how Abbasids were so much scientifically advancing just to name a few are Al Khwarizmi, Avicenna, Al Razi, there are just endless big names who influenced or founded algebra and optics and medicine and algorithms.

Ngl it's as if whole world belonged to Turks after mongols for more than half millennium. Hey but at least Turks made steam engines to cook kebabs eh?)

Islamic Golden Age did not end according to us Turks.

This is not a typical “all should speak Uzbek” post. But I am coming across so many people complaining how they can’t get a job just because of the language. I am aware many non Uzbek people just flocked to Uzbekistan because of wars for example. And that includes Russians. However the thing is, when businessmen/women go to some other country to do business they don’t expect them to know their language. For instance, if I go to Singapore, or Dubai, or Sweden or even Türkiye for business, I don’t pick people that always have to be able to speak my language while working/serving for locals. I have lived in foreign countries. And I wanna share my incident with China because it has 56 nationalities in a country. Almost all 56 are one way or the other different in especially in language but the government made one language for all (just as much French united much of its regions and came under one language). Even if I speak to customer service they don’t speak back to me in English when I do. Because their country is TOO homogeneous. Now when I see Uzbekistan, I imagine balkans, very close to each other but all speak differently. With one exception, all should be able to speak each other’s languages. Languages are second priority in a world where translators are easily replaced thanks to technology. I think youth is not demanding enough to make country “homogeneous”. We should focus on making this country great instead of trying to speak every nation’s language. Now if I’m honest with you I know and speak 5 languages. But rarely do I use more than 2 (in my case just Uzbek for my family and English)

Make Uzbekistan HOMOGENEOUS.🇺🇿🤝🇰🇿🤝🇹🇯🤝🇰🇬🤝🇷🇺. No hate. Just progress

EDIT: I’ve been called fascist, I’ve been called dictator, I’ve been called nationalist. But never have I been called a liar😉

Islamic Golden Age did not end according to Turks

So many people complain about secondary or even tertiary language in jobs.
