                  Akbar the Great

                  Jalaluddin Muhammad Akbar, third Mughal Emperor of India from 1556 to 1605. Akbar’s long reign is often thought of as beginning the peak of the Mughal Empire, as it grew and became rich and powerful, witnessing a cultural and intellectual flowering, and degrees of religious tolerance.
