Shah Jahan (English spelling)

Japanese: シャー・ジャハーン(英語表記)Shāh Jahān
Shah Jahan (English spelling)
1592‐1666
The fifth emperor of the Mughal Empire in India. Reigned 1628-58. Son of the fourth emperor, Jahangir, he retired to the Deccan due to conflicts with his father in his later years, but succeeded to the throne in Agra early the following year when his father died in the autumn of 1627. Prior to this, in 1612, he married Mumtaz Mahal, daughter of Asaf Khan, the richest and most powerful of the court nobles. Domestically, Shah Jahan's reign was the most stable period of the Mughal Empire. Externally, he expanded his territory by annexing the Ahmadnagar Kingdom in the Deccan, but failed to capture Kandahar in southern Afghanistan, which he fought against the Safavid Empire of Persia.
