The Great Mughal

The Mughal Empire, known as "The Great Mughal," was a powerful and influential Muslim dynasty that ruled much of India from the early 16th to the mid-18th century. Founded by Babur in 1526, the empire reached its peak under rulers like Akbar, Jahangir, Shah Jahan, and Aurangzeb. The Mughals fostered cultural growth, great architecture (e.g., the Taj Mahal), and maintained a diverse society. Their rule combined military strength, administrative innovation, and artistic achievement, shaping Indian history and leaving a lasting legacy in art, culture, and architecture.
