Bengal Sultanate

The Bengal Sultanate (Middle Bengali: বাঙ্গালা সালতানাত, Classical Persian: سلطنت بنگاله)[1] was a late medieval sultanate based in the Bengal region in the eastern South Asia between the 14th and 16th centuries. It was the dominant power of the Ganges-Brahmaputra Delta, with a network of mint towns spread across the region. The Bengal Sultanate had a circle of vassal states in the Indian subcontinent, including Arakan in the southeast,[2] and Tripura in the east.[3]
