Göktürk family tree
The Göktürk family tree refers to the ruling Ashina clan of the Turkic Khaganate, a vast medieval empire which stretched from northeast China to the Black Sea.[1] The following family tree is given in five sections:[2]
- The united empire up to 603 (death of Tardu Khagan)
- The west half of the empire which was ruled by yabgus in behalf of the central khagans up to 599 and the same half ruled independently after the empire was partitioned.
- East half of the empire after 603
- The reestablishment of the empire after 681 (Second Turkic Khaganate)
- West and east parts of the first empire
The color legend is as follows.
Khagan (Emperor) | Ruler of the east side | Ruler of the west side | |||||||||||||||||||||
It can be seen that both the central empire and (later) the east wing were ruled by the descendants of Bumin and the west part was ruled by the descendants of İstemi with two exceptions;
- Tardu, a yabgu of the west became the central khagan between 599-603 .
- Yukuk, a shad (a prince) in the east wing became the ruler of the west wing.
In the following trees only those with reigning dates became khagan or yabgu.

gollark: Is it too retcon-y to have a staircase in the floor or door or something after the cube begins glowing? It *does* say something about an expanse of nothing.
