    Sonargaon was a major city-state in Bengal during the 14th-16th centuries when the Bengal Sultanate was established. It served as the capital and was an important administrative center. During this period, the Chinese made expeditions to Sonargaon and Persian poets visited the court there. Later, Isa Khan gained control of the Sonargaon estate and formed a confederation of rulers called the Baro-Bhuyan to resist Mughal expansion in Bengal.

    Assalamualaikum everyone.

    I am Ashrafi mahjabin here to discus about the Bengal sultanate in


    the time period off 14th,15th and 16th centuries. And also about the twelve bhuiyans or baro
    bhuiyans ruled during late 16th century and early 17th century.

    Sonargaon became one of the major townships in the eastern part of the Indian subcontinent
    when The three city-states of Bengal were unified into an independent sultanate.  The third
    Bengali Sultan Ghiyasuddin Azam Shah established a royal court in Sonargaon. The Sultan
    invited the Persian poet Hafez to the Bengali court in Sonargaon

    During the 15th century, the Chinese Treasure voyages included an expedition to Sonargaon.


    The Chinese embassies to Bengal were part of the mission of Admiral Zheng He. 

    During the Hussain Shahi dynasty, Sonargaon was used as a base by the Sultans during
    campaigns against Assam, Tripura and Arakan. The Sultans launched raids into Assam and
    Tripura from Sonargaon

    Sonragaon was one of the most important townships in the Bengal Sultanate. It was the
    principal administrative center of eastern Bengal, particularly the Bhati region. The grand trunk
    road which was built by sher shah suri in the 16th century was a major trade route from
    bengal to central asia and Sonargoan became the eastern terminus of the road

    Under Sultan Taj Khan Karrani, there was a prime minister in the Sultan's court named isa khan,
    gained an estate covering the area of Sonargaon. But then The Karrani dynasty was defeated
    by Mughal forces .Isa Khan and a confederation of zamindars resisted Mughal expansion in
    eastern part. The confederation is known as the Baro-Bhuyan (Twelve Bhuiyans).

    Isa Khan gradually increased his strength during 16th century and he was designated as the ruler
    of the whole Bhati region, with the title of Mansad-e-Ala.

    After the battle of Egarasindhur in 16th century  Isa Khan took over the Janglabari Fort from
    Laksman Singh Hajra. Then  Musa Khan became loyal to Mughal force and Isa Khan’s
    descendant transferred their families from Sonargaon to Jangalbari Fort

    After the death of isa khan His son, Musa Khan, then took control of the Bhati region. The
    dictionary Shabda-Ratnakari was compiled by the court poet Nathuresh during the reign of Musa
    Khan.[2

    After the defeat of Musa Khan on 1610 by Mughal general Islam Khan, Sonargaon became one
    of the districts of Bengal Subah. The capital of Bengal later developed in the new Mughal
    metropolis in Dhaka.
