The answer you are looking for is option 3. Heavy taxes imposed by Aurangzeb.

Nurjahan, the father of Aurangzeb, began to build the Taj Majal that was being built for his deceased wife. This implied that he was not doing things for the people of the empire.

In the late 1600s, Emperor Aurangzeb rejected the tolerant policies of Akbar and resumed the persecution of the Hindus that existed before him, which caused economic difficulties increased under heavy taxes and discontent sparked revolts against the Mughal rule.

These conditions favoured European merchants to take hold in the powerful Mughal Empire.

How does Odysseus's greatest strength become his weakness?

torisob [31]

In The Odyssey, Odysseus’ greatest strength is his trust and his compassion to his men. Though he trusted and is compassionate to his men, this will only become his strength if his men follow his orders. This same strength became his weakness when his men didn’t follow his instructions as he is also seen as a boastful person.
