Mansur Khan (1482/3–1543) (Chinese: 速檀满速儿; pinyin: Sùtán Mǎnsù'ér; Chagatay: منصور خان), was the last khan of a united Moghulistan from 1503 until his death. From his father Ahmad Alaq, the previous khan, he inherited the eastern parts of Moghulistan proper (Ili area), the Muslim oasis cities of Yanqi, Bay, and Kuqa, and the Buddhist "Uighur" holdout of Turfan.[1] He also led a jihad of conquest against Oirat Mongol and Chinese territories to the east, including Hami and Dunhuang, and attempted to convert the Kyrgyz to Islam.[2]
Following his death, the khanate was permanently divided into Western and Eastern portions which would themselves eventually devolve into smaller states.
