    The Mughal Empire was founded in 1526 by Babur, a warrior from Central Asia, and controlled much of South Asia between the 16th and 19th centuries. At its height, the Empire stretched from Afghanistan and Kashmir in the north to Assam and Bangladesh in the east and the Deccan Plateau in south India. The Mughals consolidated Islam in South Asia and spread Persian culture and arts. However, the Empire declined in the 18th century due to deteriorating land relations, the rise of regional powers, internal court struggles, and a lack of investment in modern weapons.

    conqueror of Central Asia. The Mughal
    Empire was an early modern Empire that
    controlled much of South Asia between
    the 16 to 19 centuries.
    THE FOUNDATION OF THE
    MUGHAL EMPIRE
    The Mughal empire is conventionally said to have been founded in
    1526 by Babur, a warrior chieftain from what today is Uzbekistan,
    who employed aid from the neighboring Safavid and Ottoman
    empires, to defeat the Sultan of Delhi, Ibrahim Lodhi, in the First
    Battle of Panipat, and to sweep down the plains of Upper India. The
    Mughal imperial structure, however, is sometimes dated to 1600, to
    the rule of Babur's grandson, Akbar.This imperial structure lasted
    until 1720, until shortly after the death of the last major emperor,
    Aurangzeb, during whose reign the empire also achieved its
    maximum geographical extent.
