Yuan dynasty civil war over the throne
1328
Two rival Mongol factions fought for control of Khanbaliq after Yesun Temur's death. The 'War of the Two Capitals' between Shangdu and Khanbaliq put Tugh Temur on the throne but left the Yuan center in chronic instability. Within a generation natural disasters and rebellion would unravel Mongol rule over China entirely.
