dynasty. Bijapur had been a <a href="/wiki/Bahmani_taraf" class="mw-redirect" title="Bahmani taraf">taraf</a> (province) of the <a href="/wiki/Bahmani_Kingdom" title="Bahmani Kingdom">Bahmani Kingdom</a> prior to its independence in 1490 and before the former's political decline in the last quarter of the 15th century. It was one of the <a href="/wiki/Deccan_sultanates" title="Deccan sultanates">Deccan sultanates</a>, the collective name of the five successor states of the Bahmani Kingdom. At its peak, the Sultanate of Bijapur was one of the most powerful states in South Asia,<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEEaton1978xxiii_7-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEEaton1978xxiii-7"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> second to the <a href="/wiki/Mughal_Empire" title="Mughal Empire">Mughal Empire</a>, which <a href="/wiki/Siege_of_Bijapur" title="Siege of Bijapur">conquered</a> it in 1686 under <a href="/wiki/Aurangzeb" title="Aurangzeb">Aurangzeb</a>. </p><p>The founder of the sultanate, <a href="/wiki/Yusuf_Adil_Shah" title="Yusuf Adil Shah">Yusuf Adil Shah</a>, after emigrating to the Bahmani Sultanate, rose his position within the state and was appointed governor of the province of <a href="/wiki/Bijapur" title="Bijapur">Bijapur</a>. In 1490, he created a de facto independent Bijapur state, before becoming formally independent with the Bahmanis' collapse in 1518. </p><p>The Bijapur Sultanate's borders changed considerably throughout its history. Its northern boundary remained relatively stable, straddling contemporary southern <a href="/wiki/Maharashtra" title="Maharashtra">Maharashtra</a> and northern <a href="/wiki/Karnataka" title="Karnataka">Karnataka</a>. The Sultanate expanded southward, its first major conquest the <a href="/wiki/Raichur_Doab" title="Raichur Doab">Raichur Doab</a> following the defeat of the <a href="/wiki/Vijayanagara_Empire" title="Vijayanagara Empire">Vijayanagara Empire</a> at the <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Talikota" title="Battle of Talikota">Battle of Talikota</a> in 1565. Later campaigns in the <a href="/wiki/Karnataka" title="Karnataka">Karnatak</a> and <a href="/wiki/Carnatic_region" title="Carnatic region">Carnatic</a> extended Bijapur's formal borders and nominal authority as far south as <a href="/wiki/Tanjore" class="mw-redirect" title="Tanjore">Tanjore</a>. Bijapur, for most of its history, was bounded on the west by the Portuguese state of <a href="/wiki/Goa" title="Goa">Goa</a>, on the east by the <a href="/wiki/Sultanate_of_Golconda" title="Sultanate of Golconda">Sultanate of Golconda</a>, to the north by the <a href="/wiki/Ahmednagar_Sultanate" class="mw-redirect" title="Ahmednagar Sultanate">Ahmednagar Sultanate</a> and to the south by the Vijayanagara Empire and its succeeding <a href="/wiki/Nayaka_dynasties" title="Nayaka dynasties">Nayaka dynasties</a>. </p><p>The sultanate clashed incessantly with its neighbours. After the allied victory over Vijayanagara at Talikota in 1565, the state further expanded through its conquest of the neighbouring <a href="/wiki/Bidar_Sultanate" title="Bidar Sultanate">Bidar Sultanate</a> in 1619. The sultanate was thereafter relatively stable, although it was damaged by the revolt of <a href="/wiki/Shivaji" title="Shivaji">Shivaji</a>, who founded an independent Maratha Kingdom which went on to become the <a href="/wiki/Maratha_Confederacy" title="Maratha Confederacy">Maratha Confederacy</a>. The greatest threat to Bijapur's security was, from the late 16th century, the expansion of the Mughal Empire into the Deccan. Various agreements and treaties imposed Mughal suzerainty on the Adil Shahs, by stages, until Bijapur's formal recognition of Mughal authority in 1636. The influence of their Mughal overlords, in combination with continual strife with the Marathas, sapped the state of its prosperity until the Mughal conquest of Bijapur in 1686. </p><p>The former Bahmani provincial capital of Bijapur remained the capital of the sultanate throughout its existence. After modest earlier developments, Ibrahim Adil Shah I and <a href="/wiki/Ali_Adil_Shah_I" title="Ali Adil Shah I">Ali Adil Shah I</a> remodelled Bijapur, providing the citadel and city walls, and a <a href="/wiki/Congregational_mosque" title="Congregational mosque">congregational mosque</a>. Their successors, <a href="/wiki/Ibrahim_Adil_Shah_II" title="Ibrahim Adil Shah II">Ibrahim Adil Shah II</a>, <a href="/wiki/Mohammed_Adil_Shah,_Sultan_of_Bijapur" class="mw-redirect" title="Mohammed Adil Shah, Sultan of Bijapur">Mohammed Adil Shah</a> and <a href="/wiki/Ali_Adil_Shah_II" title="Ali Adil Shah II">Ali Adil Shah II</a>, further adorned Bijapur with palaces, mosques, a mausoleum and
