The Legacy of Shivaji the Great: Military Strategy, Naval Supremacy, and the Maratha Empire

In 1707, the last effective Mughal Emperor, Aurangzeb, died in Maharashtra, a frustrated man. Even after nearly twenty-two years of war, he failed to conquer the Marathas.

In the early nineteenth century the British took over India not from the Mughals but from the Marathas.Under Shivaji the Great, with the heady aim of Hindavi Swarajya (Indian Self-Rule), the British saw the Marathas as the principal threat to their colonial project.
