Also read as "Khagan." A title given to the ruler of a nomadic state. It is generally believed that this title was first used by the ruler of Rouran, who unified the Mongolian Plateau in the early 5th century. The -gh- was absorbed into the previous sound, resulting in qaan, khaan, qān, khān, qan, khan (Khan, Khan, Khan, Khan). In the Islamic world, it is common to refer to a person as "Khan."
