Source details Cliopatria contributors / Seshat Global History Databank. CC BY 4.0 · Selected dated polygons; documented unions, differences and shared edges for event-specific reconstructions; projected for display. Peter Jackson / Encyclopaedia Iranica. Historical facts consulted; thematic geometry independently reconstructed Natural Earth. Public domain The source stage comes later than the conquest of Khorasan. A regional patch anchored to cities transfers the documented conquest corridor within the later Mongol outline; its inferred edge is disclosed.
Published polity extents are used at the date resolution available in their sources. Hatched affected regions and route arrows are educational reconstructions; the source details distinguish them from imported boundaries.
