About Ghiyas ud-din Mansur Mirza of the Barlas

Sultan Husayn Mirza Bayqara (Persian: حسین بایقرا‎‎ / Husayn Bāyqarā) was born in Herat in June–July 1438 C.E. to Ghiyas ud-din Mansur Mirza son of Bayqarah Mirza I son of Umar Shaikh Mirza I son of Amir Timur Beg Gurkani. He was the Timurid ruler of Herat from 1469 till May 4, 1506, with a brief interruption in 1470.

[... Despite his impressive military achievements, Timur failed to nominate an heir. Eventually hissuccessors (known as the post-Timurids) established themselves in eastern Iran, Afghanistan, andmuch of Central Asia. Among the most impressive of the post-Timurids was Hussein Bayqara of Herat city and province and Khorasan province who became a major patron of Persian arts,language, and literature.]

The Barlas (Mongolian: Barulas; Chagatay/Arabic: برلاس‎ Barlās; also Berlas) were a Mongol and later Turkicized nomadic confederation in Central Asia.
According to the Secret History of the Mongols, written during the reign of Ögedei Khan [r. 1229-1241], the Barlas shared ancestry with the Borjigin, the imperial clan of Genghis Khan and his successors, and other Mongol clans. The leading clan of the Barlas traced its origin to Qarchar Barlas,[2] head of one of Chagatai's regiments. Qarchar Barlas was a descendant of the legendary Mongol warlord Bodonchir (Bodon Achir; Bodon'ar Mungqaq), who was also considered a direct ancestor of Genghis Khan. Due to extensive contacts with the native population of Central Asia, the tribe had adopted the religion of Islam and the Chagatai language, a Turkic language of the Qarluq branch, which was heavily influenced by Arabic and Persian.

Its most famous representatives were the Timurids, a dynasty founded by the conqueror Timur (Tamerlane) in the 14th century, who ruled over modern-day Iran, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, and almost the entire rest of the Caucasus, Afghanistan, much of Central Asia, as well as parts of contemporary Pakistan, India, Mesopotamia, and Anatolia.[8] One of his descendants, Zahir ud-Din Babur, later founded the Mughal Empire of Central Asia and South Asia.
