1526 in India
The year 1526 marked a pivotal moment in Indian history, witnessing the inception of the Mughal Empire under Babur. Following a series of military campaigns in Central Asia, Babur invaded India, culminating in the decisive First Battle of Panipat on April 20, 1526. This confrontation resulted in the defeat of Ibrahim Lodi, the last ruler of the Delhi Sultanate, leading to the establishment of Mughal dominance in northern India. The victory not only underscored Babur's military prowess but also heralded significant cultural and administrative transformations within the subcontinent. This year signaled the beginning of a new era characterized by the synthesis of indigenous and Persianate cultures, shaping the subsequent socio-political landscape of India.
