The Mughal conquest of Mewar was a military campaign led by Shah Jahan under the command of Emperor Jahangir in 1615. After a year of attrition warfare, Rana Amar Singh I surrendered conditionally to the Mughal forces, transforming Mewar into a vassal state of the Mughal Empire.
Shahbaz Khan's invasions of Mewar were expeditions into Mewar by the Mughal forces of Shahbaz Khan Kamboh. The expansion of the Mughal Empire was initiated during the reign of Akbar the Great. This was notably evident in the Battle of Haldighati, where the Mewar forces suffered a futile defeat, compelling Rana Pratap to retreat to the hills. In the aftermath, multiple expeditions were dispatched to Mewar under the leadership of Shahbaz Khan Kamboh, ultimately leading to the permanent pacification of important territories like Mandalgarh, Kumbhalgarh, Gogunda, and Chittorgarh. These successful conquests culminated in the assimilation of Mewar into the Mughal Empire in 1616.
