Candaroglu

Candaroğlu Beylik (sometimes called Candar, Candaroğulları or İsfendiyaroğulları in Turkish) was an Anatolian beylik who ruled in the territories of Kastamonu and Sinope, and partially at Zonguldak, Samsun and Çankırı, between 1292-1461, in the Black Sea region of modern Turkey.

The founder of the beylik was Temür Yaman Candar (also known as Demir Yaman Candar); the emirate collapsed in 1461 when the Ottoman Sultan Mehmed II annexed the region.
