Aq Qoyunlu–Mamluk War (1470–1474)
15th-century conflict between the Aq Qoyunlu and the Mamluk Sultanate
The Aq Qoyunlu–Mamluk War was a conflict fought between the Aq Qoyunlu confederation and the Mamluk Sultanate from 1470 to 1474. The war was sparked by Aq Qoyunlu raids into Mamluk territories in Syria and Upper Mesopotamia and culminated in a series of battles, including the failed sieges of Bira and Bilecik. The war ended with a decisive Mamluk victory and marked the beginning of Aq Qoyunlu's decline.
