The Khilji dynasty was a Muslim dynasty that ruled parts of the Indian subcontinent from the late 13th to the early 14th century. Founded by Jalal-ud-din Khilji, it is known for its military conquests and administrative reforms. The dynasty expanded its territory significantly, including the conquest of the Delhi Sultanate and parts of southern India. One of the most notable rulers of the Khilji dynasty was Alauddin Khilji, who implemented various economic and military strategies to strengthen his rule. He is also remembered for his efforts to control the market prices of essential goods and for his campaigns against the Mongols. The dynasty eventually declined due to internal strife and external invasions.
