The Turpan Khanate (Chinese: 吐魯番汗國), also known as the Eastern Moghulistan,[1] Kingdom of Uyghurstan[2] or Turfan Khanate,[3] was a Sunni Muslim Turco-Mongol khanate ruled by the descendants of Chagatai Khan. It was founded by Ahmad Alaq in 1487 based in Turpan as the eastern division of Moghulistan, itself an eastern offshoot of the Chagatai Khanate.
Most territories of the Turpan Khanate were conquered by the Yarkent Khanate, the western offshoot of Moghulistan, in 1570.
