- Wikipedia, May 21, 2014:Germiyanids (Germiyan, 1300-1429; The Anatolian beylik of Germiyan with its capital in Kütahya was one of the prominent frontier principalities established by Oghuz Turkish clans after the decline of Seljuq Sultanate of Rûm. According to Agoston and Masters Germiyanoğulları were Turkmens who had immigrated to the west because of Mongol pressure in the second half of the 13th century. For a brief period in the second half of the 14th century, Germiyan Dynasty was second only to Karamanid Dynasty in its rising power. But they were later taken over by the neighboring Osmanoğlu dynasty, who were to found the Ottoman Empire later. Germiyans played a crucial role in settling Turkish populations along the coastal regions of the Aegean Sea, the founders of the Beyliks of Aydin, Sarukhan, İnançoğlu and Menteşe having started out as Germiyan commanders)

- Encyclopaedia of Islam, via BrillOnline reference works, May 21, 2014:Germiyān-Og̲h̲ullari̊̊ (Germiyān, at first the name of a Turkoman tribe, was afterwards applied to a family, then to an amīrate. ... After the execution of G̲h̲iyāt̲h̲ al-Dīn Kayk̲h̲usraw III by the Mongols in 682/1283, and the accession of Masʿūd II, it seems that the Germiyān sought to break their bonds of vassalage towards the Sald̲j̲ūḳids and to proclaim their independence. The downfall of Masʿūd, however, put an end to the hostilities between the Germiyān and the Sald̲j̲ūḳids, as is revealed by an inscription in the mosque of Ḳi̊zi̊l Beg at Ankara, dated 699/1299, according to which Yaʿḳūb b. ʿAlī S̲h̲īr, whose possessions at that time extended up to this town, declared himself a vassal of ʿAlāʼ al-Dīn Kayḳobād III. This Yaʿḳūb b. ʿAlī S̲h̲īr was the founder of the amīrate of Germiyān, under the nominal suzerainty of the Sald̲j̲ūḳ sultan and the Mongol Ilk̲h̲ān; the breakdown of the central power was progressively to give him complete independence. ... The amīr of Germiyān, whose capital was Kütāhya, occupied the greater part of the ancient Phrygia, according to Gregoras; his sovereignty extended to the region of Ṭoñuzlu-Lādīḳ, which was governed by a member of his family, and to that of Ḳaraḥiṣār, where his son-in-law was amīr. ... In 831/1428 the amīr of Germiyān, at the end of his life and without male heirs, decided to bequeath by will his principality to Murād II; on this occasion the sultan offered him a sumptuous reception at Edirne. Yaʿḳūb II was to die a year after this event, at Kütāhya, and, in accordance with his last wishes, Murād II annexed the principality of Germiyān)
