The Conquests of Inal the Great represent a series of campaigns led by Inal the Great in the Caucasus during the early 15th century, aimed at uniting Circassian lands and expanding Circassian influence. Inal's campaigns included significant battles with the Crimean Khanate, Golden Horde, and Georgian states, resulting in the consolidation of Circassian territories from the Don to the Kuban and the establishment of Circassian dominance in parts of Abkhazia and the North Caucasus.
