prop. a. [See Mogul, n..]
The empire created in India by invading Mongolians (Tatars),
established under Baber, who conquered Hindustan in 1526. The
established religion of the empire was Islam. After the death
of the Great Mogul Aurung-Zeb in 1707, power passed to the
Mahrattas and the British. The empire existed only nominally
in the early 1800's, and was finally abolished in 1857 by the
deposing of the last emperor.
