- It invaded India and conquered the Sultanate (kingdom) based in

the capital city, Delhi

- Islam is prevalent throughout Northern India (and present-day

Pakistan) as a result

- Much of the architecture that India is known for (including the

Taj Mahal) was built during this time period

- Major cultural and religious tensions marked this period (first

between Hinduism and Islam)

- Sikhism emerged during the Mughal Empire as a rejection of

both Hinduism and Islam
