Ep. 04: The Storm From the Steppe Part Two

Yuddha - The Indian Military History Podcast

India, the 12th century.
As European crusaders in search of blood, glory and wealth rampage into the Near East, the ambitious warlord Muhammad of Ghor and his armies of mercenaries set their eyes on the great expanse of Northern India and its warlike kings. As they bicker and battle, cities are sacked, universities destroyed, and thousands displaced. And in the process, the economic, cultural, and political fabric of the early modern world begins to take shape.

In this second and final part of our episode on the rise of the Delhi Sultanate, join us as we follow the Turkic slave-sultans who would transform the history of the subcontinent.
