Answer: This may help you

Explanation:

As you might know, the Mughal Empire was founded by Babur, a Central Asian ruler who was descended from the Turco-Mongol conqueror Timur on his father's side and from Chagatai, the second son of the Mongol ruler Genghis Khan, on his mother's side. And hence the name Mughals comes from the word Mongol.
