Question

Why the Maratha Empire Declined

Answer 1

Answer:

Although the Maratha Power saw a temporary revival yet it was from the defeat at the Third Battle of Panipath (1761) that the decline and fall of the Marathas have to be traced. The Third Maratha War had not only destroyed the solidarity of the Maratha Confederacy but denigrated the position and prestige of the Peshwa.

Answer 2

Answer:

The decline of Marathas was due to the same reason as their rise. Their decentralized structure. Despite over 40 years of continuous warfare against them by the Mughals, Marathas survived as they never had a standing Army or Centralized command and Control and had Military leaders who acted on their own.
