The Greatest Generals of World

[Joe Shearer]

Actually we did sort out the lot of Maratha robbers that used to come to plunder us.Nawab Alivardi Khan had put an end to this treacherous lot when he paid Bhashkar Pandit in the same coin.

In Bangladeshi, especially the sort written in Persian, 'we' covers a lot of territory. It even covers those areas where Bangladeshis presently can't get visas, for instance.

Alivardi Khan's father was Shah Quli Khan (Mirza Muhammad Madani) and his mother was the daughter of Nawab Aqil Khan Afshar (Mir Muhammad Askari). Alivardi's birth name was Mirza Muhammad Ali. He was a Muslim. His father was an Arab and an employee of Azam Shah, the son of Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb.

 

[Selim I]

I'll put the Muslim generals in a separate list:

1. Subotai
2. Napoleon I
3. Hannibal Barca
4. Alexander Suvorov
5. Genghis Khan
6. Alexander the Great
7. Belisarius
8. Scipio Africanus
9. Jan Zizka
10. Julius Caesar

Muslim list:

1. Khalid ibn Al-Waleed
2. Timur
3. Nader Shar Afshar
4. Selim the Grim
5. Alp Arsalan
6. Suleiman the Magnificent
7. Rukn al-Din Baibars
8. Uqbah Bin Nafeh
9. Sultan Murad Ghazi
10. Zaheer-ud-Din Babur

Selim I (Yavuz) is way too underrated today. He was probably the best army leading Sultan in the Ottoman Empire, and perhaps even the best general the world has ever seen besides Khalid.

We need someone like him back brother.

I love this one! The two great PASHAS
