The Mughal Empire used a system called Mansabdar.Mansabdar is when the government issued land to people in return for soldiers in time of war. The major religion of the empire leaders were Islam even though almost all of the people in the empire were Hindu.Mughal is the persian word for Mogul.

If I could go any where in the world it would be Japan.The reason I would go to Japan is they make video games there and that’s my favorite hobby. I would also like to learn about their religion.
