Q. In how many parts, the Bahmani Kingdom was disintegrated?
Answer: 5
Notes: Muhammad Shah III died in 1482, causing the Bahmani Kingdom to split into Bidar, Berar, Bijapur, Ahmednagar, and Golkonda due to internal strife and regional governors' power. Each region was ruled by different dynasties: Barid Shahi (Bidar), Imad Shahi (Berar), Adil Shahi (Bijapur), Nizam Shahi (Ahmednagar), and Qutb Shahi (Golkonda). This fragmentation aided the rise of the Marathas and Mughal expansion into the Deccan.
