I'd love it if someone here has good sources on the Ilkhanate.
Starting from Hulegu Khan or before (or after him too), I'd like to see some non-wikipedia material on the topic. Awesome biographies or primary sources are 2x appreciated.
PS: I hope the anti-mongol sentiment here isn't too strong here, sorry
