Yuan Dynasty
The Yuan dynasty (), officially the Great Yuan (; xng, , , literally "Great Yuan State"), was a Mongol-led imperial dynasty of China and a successor state to the Mongol Empire after its division. It was established by Kublai, the fifth khagan-emperor of the Mongol Empire from the Borjigin clan, and lasted from 1271 to 1368. In orthodox Chinese historiography, the Yuan dynasty followed the Song dynasty and preceded the Ming dynasty. Although Genghis Khan had been enthroned with the Han-style title of Emperor in 1206 and the Mongol Empire had ruled territories including modern-day northern China for decades, it was not until 1271 that Kublai Khan officially proclaimed the dynasty in the traditional Han style, and the conquest was not complete until 1279 when the Southern Song dynasty was defeated in the Battle of Yamen. His realm was, by this point, isolated from the other Mongol-led khanates and controlled most of modern-day China and its surrounding areas, including ...

Northern Yuan Dynasty
The Northern Yuan () was a dynastic regime ruled by the Mongol Borjigin clan based in the Mongolian Plateau. It existed as a rump state after the collapse of the Yuan dynasty in 1368 and lasted until its conquest by the Jurchen-led Later Jin dynasty in 1635. The Northern Yuan dynasty began with the retreat of the Yuan imperial court led by Toghon Temür (Emperor Huizong of Yuan) to the Mongolian steppe. Although Yuan authority in most of China proper collapsed by 1368, Yuan loyalists in Yunnan led by Basalawarmi survived until their defeat by the Ming in 1382. This period featured factional struggles and the often only nominal role of the Great Khan. Dayan Khan and Mandukhai Khatun reunited the Mongol tribes in the 15th century. However, the former's distribution of his empire among his sons and relatives as fiefs caused the decentralization of the imperial rule. Despite this decentralization, a remarkable concord continued within the Dayan Khanid aristocracy, and intra-Chi ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Dayan (witch)
Daayan, Ḍāin or Ḍāini is often mistakenly regarded as a rendering for a witch (human female practitioner of black magic) in Indian folklore, the term has been derived from the Sanskrit word '' dakini'', which refers to a female paranormal entity from ''patala'' (the netherworld). '' Dakinis'' have been described in medieval Hindu texts such as the Bhagavata Purana, Brahma Purana, Markandeya Purana and Kathasaritsagara as female fiendish spirits in the train of Kali who feed on human flesh. Daayans are comparable to malevolent female spirits such as the succubi of Western folklore, they also resemble vampiresses by their alleged feeding behaviours that requires the blood or life-force of their victims. It is also said that powerful and older ''daayan'' is also referred to as ''ekayan''. The primary source of a daayan's power is her unusually long plaited hair (''choti'') that is used as an additional limb, it can be flexed, stretched retracted and regenerated to do ...

Dayan (rabbinic Judge)
A beit din ( he, בית דין, Bet Din, house of judgment, , Ashkenazic: ''beis din'', plural: batei din) is a rabbinical court of Judaism. In ancient times, it was the building block of the legal system in the Biblical Land of Israel. Today, it is invested with legal powers in a number of religious matters (''din Torah'', "matter of litigation", plural ''dinei Torah'') both in Israel and in Jewish communities in the Diaspora, where its judgments hold varying degrees of authority (depending upon the jurisdiction and subject matter) in matters specifically related to Jewish religious life. History Rabbinical commentators point out that the first suggestion in the Torah that the ruler divest his legal powers and delegate his power of judgment to lower courts was made by Jethro to Moses (Exodus ). This situation was formalised later when God gave the explicit command to "establish judges and officers in your gates" (Deuteronomy ). There were three types of courts (Mishnah, tract ...

Dayan Lake
Dayan Lake ( mn, Даян нуур, zh, 达彥湖) is a lake located the district of Sagsai, in the Bayan-Ölgii Province of western Mongolia. It is recognized by BirdLife International as an Important Bird Area since 2009. It is located in the Altai Tavan Bogd National Park. Dayan Lake remains frozen from October to June. In the area, there are wolves (''Canis lupus''), red foxes (''Vulpes vulpes'') and Pallas's cat (''Felis manul''). From the lake area, there is a view of the Altai Mountains; potentially the place may turn out to be interesting from the point of view of ecotourism. Due to the six species of birds breeding in the surrounding areas, the lake, along with Khar Lake south-east of Dayan lake and coastal areas, was considered a bird sanctuary. Six species nest around the lakes that BirdLife has identified as key. One, the saker falcon (''Falco cherrug''), is in danger of extinction, and the white-throated bush chat (''Saxicola insignis'') is in danger. The othe ...
