The Mughal Empire surveys the dynasty founded by Babur in 1526 and its development into one of early modern Asia’s most powerful states. It follows conquest, administrative integration and the reigns of Akbar, Jahangir, Shah Jahan and Aurangzeb.
The book examines revenue systems, military organisation, court culture, religious policy, architecture and exchange with regional and European powers. It concludes with succession conflict and the growth of autonomous states, explaining why Mughal authority weakened even as its institutions and cultural influence endured.
