Barlas & Mert
The Barlas (Mongolian: ᠪᠠᠷᠤᠯᠠᠰ, Барлас, romanized: Bārulās; Chagatai Turkic/Persian: برلاس, Barlās; also Berlās) were a Mongol tribe which later underwent Turkification in Central Asia, forming a nomadic confederation. Barlas were originally a sub-clan of the Borjigin, which emerged within the Khamag Mongol confederation in present-day Mongolia in the early to mid-12th century CE, and traced their military roots to Kheshig Guard, one of the elite regiments of the Mongol Empire. The Barlas produced imperial dynasties of two major empires in Asia: the Timurid Empire in Central Asia and Persia; and the Mughal Empire in the Indian subcontinent.
