Fall of Dhaka Part (1/4)
April 28th, 1656
The Mughal Empire, Region of Bengal
With the order of Vijay, the target of the empire shifted to the region of Bengal, the most prosperous and sought-after region by the Mughal Empire and the Europeans.
There are multiple reasons Vijay chose to capture Bengal now instead of later. For one, it is densely populated and continuously provides military support for the Mughal Empire, willingly or unwillingly, which is a disaster for the Bharatiya Empire. Secondly, Bengal alone accounted for 12% of the world's GDP in the last century, out of which 50% of the textiles and around 80% of the silk imports by the Dutch from Asia came from Bengal. These silks and textiles spread throughout Europe, Indonesia, Japan, and other Central Asian countries. Textiles produced in Bengal also gained their own reputation, known as Dhaka textiles.
