Answer:

2) He won the battle and established the mughal empire. So the first battle of panipat was very important as it started all the mughal empire. Coming to the second battle. This time it was Akbar fighting against Hemu.
3) Akbar wanted to befriend the rajputs because he realized that to establish an empire in India ,it was imperative to befriend the Rajputs. Also , he was impressed by their loyalty and bravery. ... - hence , the Rajputa became loyal supporters and contributed towards strengthening and expanding the Akbar''s empire.
4) mansabdari system was a system introduced by Akbar in which a Mansandar or Nobel was granted the rights to hold a jaguar or revenul assignments for services rendered by them Disadvantages of this system: The soldiers were loyal to the mansabdar rather than to the Emperor.
