The following is a list of emperors of the Yuan dynasty (1271–1368). It also contains early rulers of the Mongol Empire posthumously honored by Kublai Khan as Yuan emperors.
List of emperors
| Portrait | Name by which most commonly known | Temple name | Posthumous name | Khan name | Given name | Lifespan | Period of reign | Era name and their according range of years |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Convention: use first name (e.g. Temüjin) or Khan names for khans before Kublai Khan. Use "Yuan" + temple name or posthumous name after. A mix of the three for Kublai Khan. | ||||||||
| Notes: 1) Before Kublai Khan announced the dynastic name "Great Yuan" in 1271, khagans (Great Khans) of the Mongol Empire (Ikh Mongol Uls) already started to use the Chinese title of emperor (Chinese: 皇帝; pinyin: Huángdì) practically in the Chinese language since Genghis Khan (as 成吉思皇帝; 'Genghis Emperor'). 2) To non-Chinese readers, usually the khan names are the most familiar names. 3) Timur or Temür means the same Mongolian words but Temür will be used for avoiding confusion with Timur. | ||||||||
