Khasi II (Chechen: Эла Хаси II "Prince Khasi II") was a Chechen ruler and the king of the Durdzuks and Alans, although his reign was not recognized by the highlanders. He belonged to the Sado-Orsoy dynasty of Chechnya and was the successor of Chakh.[1][2]

Reign

Between the years 1318–1319, 40 years after the last major confrontation between the North Caucasians and the Mongol Empire, Khasi launched a failed uprising against the Mongol Empire, which may have been the reason as to why Özbeg Khan set up his headquarters on the Sunzha River. Although his reign was not recognized by the Alans and Durdzuks, the uprising was supported by the highlanders.[3][4][5][6]
Khasi, unlike his ancestors, was a Muslim.[5]

However, according to other versions, Khasi, because of his religion, corporated with the Golden Horde and ran a pro-Mongol administration of the region.[5]

Successor

Khasi II would be succeeded by his son Khour II, who would launch another rebellion against the Golden Horde, ending in a success and allowing the Vainakhh to establish an independent state: The Princedom of Simsim.[7][8]
