And no, hindu and muslim conquests were NOT alike. Krishnadevaraya defeated kalinga. Instead of destroying konark sun temple, he came back and built a similar stone chariot in hampi. The same hampi was plundered and burnt down a century later by islamic foreign invaders. The marathas defeated mughal empire, but you dont see delhi, fatehpur sikri etc in ruins. Hindu conquests were like regime or government change for ordinary people. At best some changes in taxation. Islamic conquest meant their cities burnt down, institutions destroyed and life destroyed. These are not my hallucinations, the turkic invaders proudly wrote about this themselves. | ||
