Note 39 — Chapter X
Reading edition
The Princes of Tartary. The country we term Tartary is by the Asiatics called Tûrkistan. We have given the name of a small tribe of Moghuls to the whole region inhabited by that and other races, in the same manner as the Oriental nations called Europe Faringastân, or the country of the Franks, because they first became acquainted with the people of France.
