For about two centuries, the empire stretched from the outer edges of the Indus Basin in the west, northern Afghanistan in the ,ﮔﻮرﮐﺎﻧﯿﺎن :as Gurkani (Persian northwest and Kashmir in the north to the highlands of present-day Assam and Bangladesh in the east, as well as the uplands of the Dean Plateau in southern India. The Mughal Empire, as is usually said, was founded in 1526 by Babur, a warrior chief from present-day Uzbekistan who used help from neighboring Safavid and Ottoman Empires to defeat Delhi Sultan Ibrahim Lodhi in the First Battle of Panipat and sweep away the plains of Upper India. The imperial structure of the Mughals, however, sometimes dates back to 1600, when the rule of Babur's grandson Akbar. This imperial structure lasted until 1720, until shortly after the death of the last major emperor, Aurangzeb, during whose reign the empire also reached its maximum geographical scale. Subsequently, especially during the reign of the East India Company in India, in and around the Old Delhi region, the empire was officially dissolved by the British Raj after the Indian uprising of 1857. Although the Mughal Empire was created and supported by the military it does not vigorously suppress the culture and peoples to which it has come; rather, it equalized and reassured them through new administrative practices and various ruling elites, which led to more effective, centralized and standardized rule. The basis of the collective wealth of the empire were agricultural taxes imposed by the third Mughal emperor Akbar. These taxes, which amounted well over half of the yield of the peasant cultivator,25 were paid in a well-regulated silver currency,22 and caused peasants and artisans to enter larger markets. Relative peace, supported by the empire for most of the 17th century, was a factor in India's economic expansion. The growing European presence in the Indian Ocean and the growing demand for Indian crude and finished products have created even greater wealth in the Mughal courts. Among the Mughal elite there was a more visible consumption, which led to greater patronage of painting, literary forms, textiles and architecture, especially during the reign of Shah Jahan. World Heritage Sites of the Mughal in South Asia include Fort Agra, Fatehpur Sikri, Red Fort, Humayun Tomb, Fort Lahore, Shalamar Gardens and Taj Mahal, which is described as the jewel of Muslim art in India, and one of the world's most revered world heritage masterpieces. Contemporaries of the name called the empire founded by Babur, the empire of Gurkanion, which means sons in law). The use of the Mughal comes from the Arab and Persian corruption of ,ﮔﻮرﮐﺎﻧﯿﺎن :Timurid, which reflected the heritage of his dynasty, and this term preferred the Great Mughals themselves. The designation of the Mughals for their own dynasty was Gurkani (Persian the Mongol, and it emphasized the Mongolian origin of the Timurid dynasty.
