Timur the Lame, also known as Tamerlane, justified his actions through the lens of a conqueror seeking to restore the Mongol Empire’s former glory. He believed that his military campaigns were necessary to unify the fragmented regions of Central Asia and to establish a powerful empire. Additionally, his actions were often framed as a means to spread Islam and punish those he deemed infidels or oppressors. However, these justifications often overlooked the immense suffering and destruction his conquests caused.
