>Hethum I, King of Armenia was a major player in the political struggles and shifting alliances around the Crusader states, as the Armenians had ties with all sides. They were primarily aligned with the Europeans, but during Hethum's reign, the rapidly expanding Mongol Empire became a concern. As the Mongols approached the borders of Cappadocia and Cilicia, King Hethum made a strategic decision to submit to Mongol suzerainty

M8 read about the numerous attempts at establishing a Franco-Mongol alliance, Mongols weren't an enemy to Europeans, they were fighting muslims too. If it wasn't for logistical difficulties, Franks and Mongols would've been allies.

I think he's Azerbaijani cause there's some Russian flag that always talks shit on Armenian threads and is friendly on every Turk thread.
Russians wouldn't care that much about Turkey.

Mongols were an enemy to everyone you idiot
They only used allies as a "divide and conquer" type of deal

Ok, cool. but that's arguably every alliance. Politics isn't about being bffs, it's about making alliances that will give you an advantage. If you look at it that way, then no one's an ally of anyone else but is only using them.
