In the middle of the 8th century AD, in the heart of Central Asia, on the borders of present-day Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan, a battle without victors was fought.
This symbolic date marks the maximum eastward extension of the first Islamization of Eurasia, as well as the Chinese Tang Empire's furthest westward frontiers. From then on, these two worlds will keep their distance; only contending with each other over the “Silk Road” and the steppe world.
