Answer 2

The answer is C!

The Delhi Sultanate was a Muslim dynasty that ruled over northern India from the early-1200s to the early-1500s, specifically from 1206-1527. It was made up a number of Islamic dynasties- the Mamluks chief among them- who ruled despite being threatened b the Mongols to the north. The Mughals, though, would successfully defeat the defenders of the Delhi Sultanate in 1526 and establish their own empire the following year.
