Anushirwan

Division of Anūshīrwān’s domains among the Chopanids, according to the agreement of 745 (1344–5).

Anushirwan Khan (, Anūshīrvān Khān) occupied the Ilkhanid throne in Arran from 1344 until his death in 1357. He was a puppet of the Chobanid ruler Malek Ashraf and possessed no power of his own. He is notable for being the last of the Ilkhan dynasty to have coins struck in his name.

Anushirwan's origins are obscure. One account suggests that Malek Ashraf's wardrobe keeper, a certain Nushirvan, was raised to the throne and given the name Anushirvan, after the famous Sasanian king Khosrow I Anushirvan. The Chobanids struck coins in his name until 1357.
