Born around 1451, Muhammad Shaybani was the grandson of the Uzbek conqueror Abu'l-Khayr Khan and son of Shah-Budag, a Shaybanid descended from Shiban. He spent years rallying the fractured Uzbek tribes under one command, then swept through Transoxiana to carve out the territory that would anchor Uzbek power for generations. By the time he established the Khanate of Bukhara, he had turned a patchwork of clans into a coherent political entity. He died on 2 December 1510, but the khanate he founded outlasted him by centuries.
