Delhi
The Delhi Sultanate was a Muslim state of northern India founded by Qutb ud-Din Aibak in 1206. In 1337 the Tughlaq sultan Muhammad bin Tughluq ruled from the Indus to the Tamil country, but the forced transfer of his court to Daulatabad had provoked revolts.
Bengal broke away, as did the Bahmani Sultanate in 1347. Firuz Shah Tughluq failed to retake Bengal in 1359, and Timur sacked Delhi in 1398. The Sayyid dynasty took power in 1414, followed by the Afghan Lodis. In 1526 Babur defeated Ibrahim Lodi at Panipat and replaced the sultanate with the Mughal Empire.
