About khan Shandibek-khan Khan of Kipchak (1401-1407)
After the defeat of Tokhtamysh in the great war with Timur, Timur-Kutlug was placed on the Khan's throne of the Ulus Jochi (Golden Horde) by the temnik Edigei, at that time the actual ruler of the Ulus Jochi.
Tokhtamysh, without losing hope of restoring his power, entered into an alliance with Prince Vitovt. In 1399, a battle took place on the Vorskla River, in which the troops of Timur-Kutlug under the command of Edigei defeated the combined troops of Vitovt and Tokhtamysh. The troops of Timur Kutlug ravaged the Dnieper lands and laid siege to Kyiv, but taking a huge ransom (3,000 rubles) retreated.
Tokhtamysh, having fled to Siberia, where he still had many supporters, seized power in the Tyumen yurt (1399). The winner, Khan Timur-Kutlug, did not rest long on his laurels after his victory. The young Khan began to show a desire for independent government. Worried about his political ambitions, Temnik Edigei organized a coup, killed Timur-Kutlug and elevated his younger brother Shadibek to the khan's throne.

After the death of his brother; Temur Qutlugh, Shadi Beg was enthroned (with the help of Edigu)as Khan of the Golden Horde in 1399. The same year, Edigu went to Siberia to exact revenge on Toqtamysh (who had killed his father). During Edigu's absence Shadi Beg tried to strengthen his power over the Horde, but when Edigu returned he dethroned Shadi Beg and enthroned his brother, Pulad Khan in his place. Shadi Beg escaped to the Caucasus mountains where he died.
