Remember, Babur is a descendant of Timur, who is a Turco-Mongolian conqueror. On his mother's side, he claims descendancy from Genghis Khan, but Persian is the language of his court, and so it significantly increases the Persian influence in north Indian culture. After his death, his son Humayun comes to power. Humayun has difficulty retaining power. He has various family rivalries to contend with, and eventually he is dethroned by the Pashtun Suri dynasty. He goes to the Safavids and with their help is able to retake control, but then trips on stairs and dies, and then his son Akbar comes to power. Now, Akbar is perhaps most famous of all of the Mughal rulers.
