Q. How Akbar extended his empire?


​

Answer 1

Answer:

The Mughals did not like to be called Mughal or Mongol. This was because Genghis Khan's image was associated with the massacre of innumerable people. It was also linked with the Uzbegs, their Mongol competitors. On the other hand the Mughals felt proud of their Timurid ancestry.

Akbar succeeded his father, Humayun, under a regent, Bairam Khan, who helped the young emperor expand and consolidate Mughal domains in India. ... His power and influence, however, extended over the entire subcontinent because of Mughal military, political, cultural, and economic dominance.
