Answer:

Shivaji Bhonsale I was an Indian ruler and a member of the Bhonsle Maratha clan. Shivaji carved out an enclave from the declining Adilshahi sultanate of Bijapur that formed the genesis of the Maratha Empire. In 1674, he was formally crowned as the Chhatrapati of his realm at Raigad.

Answer:

Shivaji was a 17th-century Indian warrior-king and founder of the Maratha Empire. He was born in 1627 in the fort of Shivneri in present-day Maharashtra, India.

Explanation:

Shivaji was a 17th-century Indian warrior-king and founder of the Maratha Empire. The Maratha Empire was established in the 17th century by the Indian warrior-king Shivaji. In the present-day Indian state of Maharashtra, near the Shivneri Fort, he was born in 1627. Through a series of conflicts and clever alliances, he built a strong military and governmental structure and extended his realm.

The Maratha Empire was governed by numerous individuals throughout the 18th century AD. After Shivaji's demise in 1680, Sambhaji, Shivaji's son, controlled the empire for a short time before being apprehended and killed by the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb in 1689.

Sambhaji's younger brother Rajaram and his widow Tarabai were among the rulers of the Maratha Empire after Sambhaji's passing. In the early 18th century, the Peshwa (prime minister) became the de facto ruler of the Maratha Empire, with Balaji Vishwanath serving as the first Peshwa from 1713 to 1720. The Peshwas continued to exercise power over the Maratha Empire until the early 19th century.
