The Story of India - The Meeting of Two Oceans - 3/6

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Part-three of this six part series begins with a dramatization of a battle between Indians and Muslims which led to the dawn of the Mughal Empire. Unlike other Muslim rulers in India, the Mughal leader was a devote Sufi and had a deep respect for India and its people. This episode also tells the tale of Akbar, said to be one of the best rulers in India.
