At its peak, the empire stretched from the outer fringes of the Indus River Basin in the west, northern Afghanistan in the northwest, and Kashmir in the north, to the highlands of present-day Assam and Bangladesh in the east, and the uplands of the Deccan Plateau in South India. It existed from 1526 to 1857, with its capital shifting between Agra, Delhi, Lahore and Fatehpur Sikri at different periods.
