Detailed explanation-1: -The Mughal Emperors spent a significant portion of their ruling period within these camps. After Aurangzeb, the Mughal capital definitively became the walled city of Shahjahanabad (today Old Delhi).
Detailed explanation-2: -History. The Mughal empire is conventionally said to have been founded in 1526 by Babur, a Timurid prince from Ferghana which today is in Uzbekistan. After losing his ancestral domains in Central Asia, Babur first established himself in Kabul and ultimately moved towards the Indian subcontinent.
Detailed explanation-3: -After the death of Muḥammad Shah in 1748, the Marathas overran almost all of northern India. Mughal rule was reduced to only a small area around Delhi. The British took control of this area in 1803. By the mid-1800s the Mughal Empire had lost all of its territory to its rivals and to the British.
