Answer:
Explanation:
The term "Mughal" comes from a mispronunciation of the word "Mongol". The Mughals originated in Central Asia, and were descended from the Mongol ruler Jenghiz Khan and Timur (Tamburlaine), the great conqueror of Asia. From their mother's side they were descendants of Genghis Khan (died 1227).The rulers of the Mughal Empire shared certain genealogical relations with the Mongol royals. So, the Mughal Empire has descended from the two most powerful dynasties.
The Mughal are one of four main Muslim communities in India, the other three being Pathan, Sheikh and Sayyad, and place themselves as superior to the others except the Sayyad. They are often referred to by the surnames Mirza (learned) and Beg (nobleman.)
