Many attempts were made towards forming a '''Franco-Mongol alliance''' between the mid-1200s and the early 1300s, starting around the time of the Seventh Crusade. According to various historians, these attempts evolved into a regular alliance, complete with military cooperation. In this context, the term [[Franks]] designates all western Europeans, but especially those associated with the [[Crusader States]]).  Between the 11th to the 15th century, the [[Crusaders]] were usually called Franks,<sup>1</sup> and the [[Mongols]] are those of the [[Il-Khanate]], located in [[Persia]]. This alliance occured in the mid-1200s to the early 1300s.
