The Mughal Empire ruled parts of the Indian Subcontinent for more than three centuries. In that time, it transformed India into what it is today. The Mughals came as outsiders from Central Asia who conquered India with steel and gunpowder but overtime, they became as Indian as well, Biryani is, which, by the way, developed in the Mughal kitchens. They gave many things to India, from food to architecture and even languages. Their law-code, to a large extent, is used even today in India. They created one of history’s richest empires which contributed something like a fourth of the world’s GDP at its peak. Its first six rulers, also known as the Great Mughals, crafted modern India to such a large extent that their legacy is being discussed even today, from libraries and universities to parliaments. Theirs is the legacy we’ll go over in this video. This is the story of the Great Mughal Empire.
