Akbar the Great, Mogul Emperor of India

A descendant of Genghis Khan and Tamerlane, Akbar the Great succeeded in forging an empire in India that brought about a splendid period of political stability and religious tolerance. This program blends dramatizations of significant moments in Mogul history with location footage of intricate architectural landmarks to create a detailed account of Akbar’s reign. Religious and secular customs from both then and now as well as events in Europe concurrent with the Mogul empire are also documented, in order to demonstrate the historical interplay between East and West and the survival of remnants of Mogul culture in India today. (54 minutes)
