Meñli I Giray is credited with the creation of the Khan’s Palace in Bakhchisarai.
According to the above Wiki page, he defeated the evil Golden Horde and his family ruled Crimea from 1422 to 1783. (Eight short years after 1775)
But was it a “defeat”? Or was he a part of the Golden Horde, the recipient of Crimea when the Empire grew and split into North and South powers?
What I find very interesting about the map above are the placements of Genoa territory!
Nice one :o)
