Beginning And End Of Mughal Empire - History of Mughal Badshah Babar To Bahadur

The Mughal Empire was a powerful Islamic state that ruled over the Indian subcontinent from the early 16th century to the mid-19th century. The empire was founded by Babur in 1526 and it reached its peak under the reign of Akbar the Great, who ruled from 1556 to 1605.

Under Akbar's rule, the Mughal Empire became a center of culture, science, and architecture. He introduced a policy of religious tolerance, abolished discriminatory taxes on non-Muslims, and established a strong centralized government. His successors continued his policies and expanded the empire's territory, but by the 18th century, the Mughal Empire began to decline due to corruption, weak leadership, and economic instability.

The British East India Company gained control of Indian territories in the 18th century and gradually eroded the Mughal Empire's power. The last Mughal Emperor, Bahadur Shah Zafar, was exiled to Burma (present-day Myanmar) by the British in 1858, marking the end of the Mughal Empire.

Despite its decline and eventual downfall, the Mughal Empire had a significant impact on Indian history and culture. It left behind a legacy of impressive architecture, art, and literature that continue to influence Indian culture today.
