Answer 2

The empire formally existed from 1674 with the coronation of Shivaji as the Chhatrapati and ended in 1818 with the defeat of Peshwa Bajirao II at the hands of the British East India Company. The Marathas are credited to a large extent for ending Mughal rule over most of the Indian subcontinent.

Lack of Political Foresight: The Marathas lacked wisdom and farsightedness. ... Incapable Leadership: All capable Maratha chiefs died by the end of the eighteenth century. After that, the leadership of the Marathas was taken over by Bajirao II, Daulatrao Scindia, Yashwant Rao Holkar, and Nana Phadnavis.

Following were the causes of the Maratha failure in the Third-Anglo Maratha War: The leaders of the Maratha confederate did not have unity of purpose or action. ... The Marathas did not have an efficient administrative system. The Maratha state extracted the revenues of chauth and sardeshmukhi forcefully.
