In this final episode covering Amir Timur (Tamerlane), we review his twilight years wherein Timur inflicts a series of stinging defeats against the Mameluke Sultanate. Before facing off against the surging Ottoman Empire for supremacy of the region, reaching the pinnacle of his power and the greatest extend of the Timurid Empire. Upon his death shortly thereafter, we then look at his broader legacy and the lasting impacts that this warlord made on the world.

I’m being particular about this because if you want us to believe you are giving us facts, we need to be confident you know what you say is what you mean. I hope I find your podcast improves as I catch up with the current episodes. I’m looking forward to Scipio Africanus

I just found your podcast, and I know this is 4 years too late, however, you are using decimate incorrectly. A decimation is a very specific action. A conquering general, king, etc. lines up the losing army, whether an enemy or his own mutinous troops, then counts off every tenth man and executes him, thereby reducing the size of the army by 10%. Deci being a prefix meaning 10. Decimate does not mean completely destroy. It is a punitive action after the battle.

I have enjoyed this podcast which I found to be very educational. It was also very well narrated. Lloyd
