Mugal Emperors
-------------------------------------------------
Mughal emperors
The Mughal era is a historic period of the Mughal Empire in South Asia (mainly Northern India, North Eastern Pakistan and Bangladesh). It ran from the early 15th century to a point in the early 18th century The imperial family directly descended from two of the worlds greatest conquerors[citation needed]: Genghis Khan, founder of the largest contiguous empire in the history of the world; and the Amir,
The Mughal Empire lasted for more than three centuries. The Mughal Empire was one of the largest centralized states in pre-modern history and was the precursor to the British Indian Empire.
The titles of the first of the six Mughal Emperors receive varying degrees of prominence in present-day Pakistan and India. Some favour Babur the pioneer and others his great-grandson, Shah Jahan (r. 1628-58), builder of the Taj Mahal and other magnificent buildings. The other two prominent rulers were Akbar (r. 1556-1605) and Aurangzeb (r. 1658-1707). Both rulers expanded the empire greatly and were able administrators. However, Akbar was known for his religious tolerance and administrative genius, whereas Aurangzeb was a just ruler but a proselytizer of orthodox Islam across the heterodox Indian landscape.

    The Mughal empire was founded by a Chagatai Turk named Babur, who claimed descent from both Chinggis Khan and Tamerlane. The Mughal was a very influential empire, but it reached its greatest point under the leadership of Aurangzeb. During his reign, Aurangzeb conducted a continuous campaign to impel Mughal authority deep into the southern India. The Mughals were also known to be a very rich and powerful empire. They used their wealth to build up their military and to show other nations how easily they could buy advanced weaponry and armor to strengthen their army (Doc. 2). Even though the Mughals were a very rich and influential empire, the leadership of the dynasty became very naive and ignorant. The monarch would give land to their military men, and whoever lived the villages within it automatically became were under their control. The people living in these villages started questioning “why should I toil for a tyrant who may come tomorrow and lay his rapacious hands upon all I possess?” (Doc. 5). As a result, the government became faulty and untrustworthy to the citizens and this caused a decline in their…
