'''Ala ad-Din Muhammad II''' ([[Persian language|Persian]]: علاءالدین محمد خوارزمشاه; [[full name]]: ''Ala ad-Dunya wa ad-Din Abul-Fath Muhammad Sanjar ibn Tekish'') was the [[Shah]] of the [[Khwarezmian Empire]] from 1200 to 1220. His ancestor was a [[Turkic peoples|Turkic]] slave who eventually became a viceroy of a small province named Khwarizm.{{citation needed|date=September 2015}} He is perhaps best known for inciting the [[Mongol invasion of Khwarezmia]], which resulted in the complete and utter destruction of his empire.<br />
<br />
==Reign==<br />
After his father [[Ala ad-Din Tekish|Tekish]] died, Muhammad succeeded him. Right after his accession, however, his domains were invaded by the two [[Ghurid]] brothers [[Ghiyas ad-Din Ghori]] and [[Mu'izz al-Din]]. Within weeks, the two brothers had moved their armies westwards into [[Greater Khorasan|Khorasan]]. Once they had captured [[Nishapur]], Mu'izz al-Din was sent on an expedition towards [[Ray, Iran|Ray]], but he let his troops get out of control and got little further than [[Gurgan]], earning criticism from Ghiyas which led to the only reported quarrel between the brothers.<ref>Ahmad Hasan Dani et al. [https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=lodSckjlNuMC&pg=PA182&lpg=PA182ots=OMocFZUAz1&sig=XeLHhZi_IE1ALoMjj7FOn4ht6x0&hl=en History of civilizations of Central Asia, vol. IV], Delhi, Motilal Banarsidass Pub. (1999) ISBN 81-208-1409-6, p182</ref><ref>[https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=9JQ3AAAAIAAJ&pg=PA662&lpg=PA662&ots=6UgwWWL4Aq&sig=cUjPeyiHtJTftZTwrnG7eIwVACI&hl=en Enc. Islam, article: Muhammad, Mu'izz al-Din]</ref><br />
<br />
Ghiyas died at [[Herat]] in 1202 after months of illness. Muhammad II used this opportunity to invade the domains of the Ghurid Empire, and besieged [[Herat]]. Mu'izz, however, managed to repel him from Herat and then pursued him to [[Khwarezm]], besieging [[Gurganj]], his capital. Muhammad desperately requested aid from the [[Kara-Khitan Khanate]], who sent an army to aid Muhammad. Mu'izz, because of the pressure from the Kara-Khitans, was forced to relieve the siege and retreat. However, on his way to his domains in [[Ghur]], he was defeated at Andkhud in 1204.<ref>''A Global Chronology of Conflict: From the Ancient World to the Modern Middle'', Vol. I, ed. Spencer C. Tucker, (ABC-CLIO, 2010), 269.</ref><ref>Farooqui Salma Ahmed, ''A Comprehensive History of Medieval India: From Twelfth to the Mid-Eighteenth Century'', (Dorling Kindersley Pvt., 2011), 53–54.</ref> Mu'izz al-Din was later assassinated in 1206, throwing the Ghurid Empire into a civil war. During the civil war, [[Ghiyath al-Din Mahmud]] managed to emerge victorious.<br />
<br />
However, Ghiyath's Turkic general [[Tajuddin Yildoz]] seized [[Ghazni]] from the Ghurid rulers of Bamiyan, but shortly recognized the authority of Ghiyath. Ghiyath, not glad about Tajuddin controlling Ghazni, and not daring to leave Ghur unprotected, requested help from the Muhammad II. Muhammad, however, instead invaded the domains of Ghiyath, capturing [[Balkh]] and [[Tirmidh]].<ref name="Biran">Michel Biran, ''The Empire of the Qara Khitai in Eurasian History'', (Cambridge University Press, 2005), 70.</ref> However, during his invasion he was captured by the [[Kara-Khitan Khanate]]. Thirteen months later, Muhammad was freed from captivity, and once again invaded the domains of Ghiyath, and captured [[Herat]]. Muhammad then invaded the Ghurid heartland of [[Ghur]], and captured Ghiyath. Ghiyath then agreed to recognize Muhammad's authority.<br />
<br />
Muhammad II then captured [[Samarkand]] (captured by Karakhanids in 1208) in 1207 from the [[Kara Khitay]], [[Tabaristan]] in 1210 from [[Bavandids]] and [[Transoxiana]] from Western Karakhanids. He pursued expansionist policy and conquered [[Tashkent]] and [[Fergana]] from Western Karakhanids and regions of [[Makran]] and [[Balochistan]] from Ghurids and [[Atabegs of Azerbaijan]] become his vassals in 1211. He finally destroyed Western Karakhanids in 1212 and Ghurids in 1215 annexing with their remainder territories. During 1212 the city of Samarkand revolted killing 8,000–10,000 Khwarezmians living there. Muhammad, in retaliation, sacked the city and executed 10,000 citizens of Samarkand.<ref>Rafis Abazov, ''Palgrave Concise Historical Atlas of Central Asia'', (Palgrave Macmillan, 2008), 43.</ref><br />

By 1217, he had conquered all the lands from the [[Syr Darya|river Jaxartes]] to the [[Persian Gulf]]. He declared himself [[shah]] and demanded formal recognition from the [[caliph]] in [[Baghdad]]. When the caliph [[an-Nasir]] rejected his claim, Ala ad-Din Muhammad gathered an army and marched towards [[Baghdad]] to depose an-Nasir. However, when crossing the [[Zagros Mountains]], the shah's army was caught in a blizzard.<ref>Rafis Abazov, ''Palgrave Concise Historical Atlas of Central Asia'', 43.</ref> Thousands of warriors died. With the army decimated, the generals had no choice but to return home.<br />

In 1218, a small contingent of Mongols crossed borders in pursuit of an escaped enemy general. Upon successfully retrieving him, [[Genghis Khan]] made contact with the Shah. Having only recently conquered two-thirds of what would one day be China, Genghis was looking to open trade relations, but having heard exaggerated reports of the Mongols, the Shah believed this gesture was only a ploy to invade ''his'' land. Genghis sent emissaries to Khwarezm (reports vary – one stating a group of 100 Muslim merchants with a single Mongol leading them, others state 450) to emphasize his hope for a trade road. The Shah, in turn, had one of his governors openly accuse the party of spying, their rich goods were seized and the party was arrested. <br />

Trying to maintain diplomacy, Genghis sent an envoy of three men to the Shah, to give him a chance to disclaim all knowledge of the governor's actions and hand him over to the Mongols for punishment. The shah executed the envoy (again, some sources claim one man was executed, some claim all three were), and then immediately had the Mongol merchant party (Muslim and Mongol alike) put to death. These events led Genghis to [[Mongol invasion of Central Asia|retaliate with a force of 100,000 to 150,000 men]] that crossed the Jaxartes in 1219 and sacked the cities of [[Samarkand]], [[Bukhara]], [[Otrar]] and others. Muhammad's capital city, [[Kunya Urgench|Urgench]], followed soon after.<br />
<br />
Genghis Khan's revenge was considered brutal, even by Mongol standards. His campaign resulted in the complete annihilation of Khwarezm cities, destruction of countless historical artifacts and records, and [[List of wars and anthropogenic disasters by death toll|arguably the bloodiest massacre the world saw until the 20th century.]]<br />
<br />
==Death==<br />
Ala ad-Din Muhammad fled and sought refuge throughout [[greater Khorasan|Khorasan]], but died of [[pleurisy]] on an island in the [[Caspian Sea]] near the port of [[Abaskun]] some weeks later.<br />
