2. Represent the Mughal emperors in the chronological order
Answers
The Mughal Empire, descendants from the Mongol Empire of Turkestan in the 15th Century, ruled the majority of India and Pakistan during the 16th and 17th Centuries. Although this was an Islamic empire, the Mughals tolerated other religions even as they spread Muslim art, faith, and culture. Under their rule, the Mughal Empire centralized the Indian government that had been made up of small kingdoms, introduced an educational system focused on student learning, and created the Urdu language, which is a mix of Persian, Arabic, and Hindi.
