Abstract
Abstract The Crimean Khanate (c. 1440–1783) was the most powerful of the new khanates spun off from the disintegrating Golden Horde. It came under Ottoman protection in the 1470s and played an important role in the balance of power among the Ottoman, Austrian Habsburg, and Russian Empires and Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth down into the early 18th century. The captives taken in Eastern Europe by Crimean Tatar raiders became a major source of slave manpower for the Ottoman Empire.
