Answer:
Mansabdar was the generic term for the military -type grading of all imperial officials of the Mughal Empire. The mansabdars governed the empire and commanded its armies in the emperor's name. Though they were usually aristocrats, they did not form a feudal aristocracy, for neither the offices nor the estates that supported them were hereditary.
Mughal ranks included the Nawab, Subahdar, Mansabdar, Sawar and Sepoy. Mughal princes were often given the title Mir and Mirza.
The term is derived from Mansab, meaning 'rank'. Hence, Mansabdar literally means rank-holder.
