Hushang of Shirvan

Hushang (r. 1372–1382) was the last Shirvanshah of the Kasranid line, succeeding his father Kavus, under whom Shirvan had become a Jalayirid vassal. Raised a hostage at the court of the Jalayirid sultan Shaykh Uways and released on his father's death, he kept minting coins in his overlords' names.

When Shah Mansur invaded Shirvan in 1375, Hushang avoided battle. The poet Arif Ardabili dedicated a masnavi to him. In 1382 Hushang was killed by his subjects; his cousin Ibrahim I succeeded him, opening the Darbandi line.
