how did indian history change after the death of aurangzeb
Answers
After Aurangazeb Mughal empire started declining not a single Mughal king who sat on the throne of Delhi was able enough to rule such a big empire conquered by Aurangzeb. Sikhs & Marathas took an advantage of declining Mughal empire. Sikhs driven away Mughals from Punjab while Marathas who were ambitious were wanting to extend their empire over entire Indian subcontinent extended their empire from Maharashtra to Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat, some kingdoms of Uttar Pradesh & also Delhi. A 1 person who is credited of extending Maratha empire is Bajirao, he conquered almost half of India & brought such a big subcontinent under Maratha dominion. He fought 41 battles & never was defeated. Other than Marathas other Hindu kings also freed their kingdoms like Maharaja Chhatrasal, Rana Durgadas also Nawabs of Awadh established their separate kingdom. Nizam established his kingdom in Hyderabad. Rajput kingdoms in Rajasthan were freed from Mughals. Most of the part of India came under Maratha dominion, Punjab came under Sikhs, Awadh came under the rule of Nawabs, Rajput rulers freed themselves from Mughal dominion & established their own independent kingdoms. Hyderabad came under the rule of Nizam who established himself as an independent ruler of Hyderabad, Marathas uprooted Delhi & Mughal emperors of Delhi became puppets of Marathas in the end of 1700 century thus Mughal empire ended within 80 year after the death of Aurangzeb.
The history of India changed after the death of Aurangzeb because after him there were no powerful Mughal to control the vast territories
