When comparing the rule of two Mughal rulers; Akbar & Aurangzeb, we can see they are polar opposites. Akbar is clearly a good leader while Aurangzeb is clearly a bad leader. Compare either Akbar or Aurangzeb to one person/leaders/rulers whom we have learned about at any point this year. Please state why you believe they are similar.

I believe that Aurangzeb, is similar to the roman emperor Nero. I believe this because, both rulers were very bad, mean, and harsh. Nero started a fire that lasted in Rome for six days. Aurangzeb is being the blame for destroying Hindu temples. Nero also killed his brother so he could be emperor. Aurangzeb put his father in jail so he could be ruler. This proves that both leaders are bad, so that is why I believe that Aurangzeb and Nero are both bad rulers (emperors).

I agree with Myles, Aurangzeb did put his father in jail because he will be a ruler. This is why Aurangzeb and Nero are bad rulers.

Aurengzeb and emperor Nero are very similar. They were both really bad rulers. Also, they made sure that everyone feared them so they could have even more power. They were very harsh and only wanted their way. Thats why Aurengzeb and Nero are very similar.

I agree with Cheyenne, because they were harsh. But, again it is about perspective. Aurangzeb did not have many options and could have been trying to help.

I think that Aurangzeb is similar to the roman emperor Nero because Nero discriminated the Christians by starting a fire and blaming the Christians. Aurangzeb made the Hindus pay a special tax.

I think Aurengzeb and Hitler are similar. They both treated a certain group of people differently. Hitler would kill Jews just because of there religion. Aurengzeb would also kill Hindus just because they were not the same religion as him. Hitler and Aurengzeb were also very harsh rulers and did not care much about others. This is why Aurengzeb and Hitler are very similar.

I agree with you Regis they were similar. But I still think that Ganghis Khan would be a better match with Aurangzeb.

I agree with Regis. Aurangzeb and Hitler both treated other religions bad. Putting Jews in concentration camps and killing them. And putting special tax and destroying places or worship are not right.

Hitler and Aurangzeb were both similar. Hitler despised Jews and massacred them. Aurangzeb destroyed Hindu temples. Religion, instead of keeping peace can start wars.

I agree with Sebastian. I also think that Hitler and Aurangzeb are similar. They both treated people differently because of their religion. Hitler would kill Jews. Aurangzeb would kill people who were not agreeing with his religion.

I thought that Nero and Aurangzeb were very harsh rulers. I believe this because Aurangzeb forced non-muslims and hindus to pay special taxes. Nero is very similar to that because he burnt down the city and he blamed it on the christians. They all had bad comments and the people that he was ruling they thought that they were in the hands of a harsh ruler. This is why I think that Aurangzeb was a very similar ruler to Nero.

I agree both Nero and Aurangzeb were very harsh and unfair rulers. And it made me mad when Nero burnt down the city and blamed it on the Christians, and when Aurangzeb made non-Muslims pay a special tax.

I believe that Aurangzeb and Ganghis Khan were similar. I believe this this because Aurangzeb was said to destroy Hindu temples and Ganghis Khan destroyed entire city's. Also because they both were very harsh.

I think that Akbar and Constantine were the better rulers. Akbar made the area he ruled better for everyone. Including non-muslims. Constantine made the treatment toward Christians better and made the world better for his people. Akbar and Constantine I say That these two rulers were the better ones in the time we covered in learning

I agree with you Austin T that Akbar and Constantine were both the better ruler. Like you said, Akbar made his area better for his non-Muslim people by making everybody pay the special tax instead of having only the non-Muslim people pay the special tax. Like Austin T said, Constantine made his land better for his people as well by bringing the Eastern and Western parts of Rome together. This is why I agree with Austin T.

I think Akbar was like Julius Caesar. Both Akbar and Julius Caesar were great leaders and did their best to make the government and people better. Akbar did good things like making things fair between Muslims and non-Muslims, while Caesar won many wars that lead to the rise of the roman empire.

I believe that Aurangzeb and Nero were smilar rulers. I believe this because they were both very harsh rulers. They both didn't treat everyone equal and discriminated one group / type of people. I know this because Aurangzeb made non-muslims pay a special tax and Nero burnt down the city and blamed it on the Christians.

I think that Aurengzeb is similar to Nero. They both started a fire. They also both want people to fear them. If people fear them then they will respect them.

I believe that Akbar and MLK a similar. They both promoted equality for everyone. MLK promoted equality for African Americans and Akbar promoted equality for Hindus and Buddhists. That is how MLK and Akbar are similar.

I think Aurangzeb was a terrible ruler honestly, so I'll compare him to Nero.Nero killed has brother to be emporer . Arangzeb killed his DAD just to be ruler! I'm glad nowadays I'm not dead, because my family wants to be high class.Both of them also kill basically anyone not their religion.Christians/Hindus.
