Akbar: Definition and Much More From Answers.com (4771 words)
Akbar (ăk'bär), 1542–1605, Mughal emperor of India (1556–1605); son of Humayun, grandson of Babur.
Akbar did not go to Persia with his parents, and was raised for a time instead by his uncle Askari and his wife in the rugged country of Afghanistan rather than in the splendor of the Persian court.
Akbar is recorded as saying "A monarch should be ever intend on conquest, lest his neighbours rise in arms against him", and he went on to expand the Mughal empire to include Malwa (1562), Gujarat (1572), Bengal (1574), Kabul (1581), Kashmir (1586), and Kandesh (1601), among others.
