The Chagatai Khans were the heads of the Chagatai ulus from Chagatai Khan's inheritance of the state in 1227 to their removal from power by the Dzungars and their vassals in 1687. The power of the Chagatai Khans varied; from its beginning, the khanate was one of the weakest of the Mongol states, and often its rulers were merely figureheads for ambitious conquerors (see Kaidu and Timur). Note: The following list is incomplete and, at times, possibly slightly inaccurate. It also exlcudes several collateral lines that ruled over minor territories and were relatively unimportant.
