Mughal emperor Aurangzeb was one of the most powerful and long -term rulers of his dynasty. During his reign, the Mughal Empire reached its peak and its army began to be counted among the strongest armies in the world.

North India was already under the rule of the Mughals, but Aurangzeb’s biggest ambition was to conquer South India and the Marathas. He spent the last two decades of his life to the south and conquered many states. As a result, the area of ​​the Mughal Empire spread to about twelve and a half million square miles.

Aurangzeb saw his empire slowly shattering

However, in the last days of life, Aurangzeb saw his empire slowly disintegrating. According to the historian Sir Jadunath government, Aurangzeb fell victim to loneliness and despair in old age. Most of his companions and believers were not with him, and the court was filled with corrupt officials and sycophants.

Aurangzeb was angry with his sons

Aurangzeb was also very angry with his sons, because he did not see the ability to handle governance in anyone. He wrote to his son Muazzam that “a daughter is better than a unworthy son.” He was alive three sons in time, while two sons and many families had already passed away.

His daughter Jebunnisa in 1702, son Akbar in 1704, and daughter -in -law Jainzeb in 1705 died. Gauhar Ara was alone alone among his siblings, but he also died. The grief of losing loved ones was deep for Aurangzeb.

After nearly 50 years of rule, Aurangzeb died on 3 March 1707 in Ahmednagar, South India. He was buried in Daulatabad, and his grave is located in Khuldabad in Aurangabad district.
