Taliqu

Taliqu was a grandson of Büri and a son of Qadaqchi and a princess of Kerman. After Könchek died in 1308, he seized the Chagatai throne.

A Muslim, he pressed Islam on his Mongol subjects, and his rule was resented both for this and because he was not a descendant of Duwa. The sons of Duwa revolted and chose Kebek as khan, and Taliqu was killed in 1309, reportedly assassinated at a banquet.
