Maharana Pratap was born in 1540 in Kumbhalgarh, Rajasthan to Udai Singh II and Jeevant Kanwar. He succeeded his father as ruler of Mewar in 1572. Pratap resisted the Mughal emperor Akbar's demands for submission and tribute. This led to the Battle of Haldighati in 1576, which was fierce but inconclusive.

He established a new capital in Chavand and lived a spartan life according to his vow until his death in 1597.

Maharana Pratap Singh was the ruler of Mewar in the 16th century who fought bravely against the Mughal emperor Akbar to protect the independence of his kingdom. He was born in 1540 and became the ruler of Mewar in 1572 after defeating his brother for the throne.

The Mughal Empire ruled much of northern and central India between the 16th and early 18th centuries. It was founded in 1526 by Babur, a Timurid descendant of both Genghis Khan and Timur. The empire grew rapidly under Akbar's rule from 1556 to 1605, but began declining after Aurangzeb's death in 1707. The last Mughal emperor, Bahadur Shah Zafar, lost control of the empire after the 1857 rebellion against the British East India Company, marking the end of the Mughal dynasty.

Maharana Pratap of Mewar and Chandbibi of Ahmednagar bravely defended their territories from the Mughals. Similarly, Rani Durgavati of Gondwana fought against Akbar after her husband's death but ultimately sacrificed her life for her kingdom's independence.

3. CHILDHOOD OF MAHARANA PRATAP
Maharana Pratap was born in Kumbhalgarh fort on 9 May 1540. His mother
and father were Jaiwanta Bai and Udai Singh II respectively. He had two step
sisters and three younger brothers. His father was the king of Mewar. In
1957, Mewar's capital Chittor was surrounded by the mughal forces. His
father Uday Singh left the capital and shifted all his family members to
Gogunda. Rana Pratap resisted this decision of his father and insisted on
staying back in Chittoor. But his elders convinced him to leave the
place.After the demise of Uday Singh, Rani Dher bai wanted the eldest son
of Uday Singh to be crowned as the king. But the senior courtiers felt that
Pratap could be a good choice for handling the prevailing situation. This is
how Maharana Pratap became the king.

5. PERSONAL LIFE OF MAHARANA PRATAP
Maharana Pratap had a total of 11 wives, five
daughters, and 17 sons but his favorite wife was his
first wife whose name was Maharani Ajabde Punwar.
He tied the knot with her in 1557. The name of his
first son Amar Singh was born in 1559 and later
succeeded him. In order to strengthen the Rajput
unity, it is being said that Maharana Pratap married
ten more princesses.
6. ACCESSION AND REIGN
When Rana Pratap Singh succeeded his father to the throne of
Mewar, his brother Jagmal Singh, who had joined the Mughal army
for the sake of revenge and was nominated by Udai Singh as the
crown prince. Akbar, the Mughal king, rewarded Jagmal Singh for
the help he had rendered and gave him the town of Jahazpur. After
the Rajputs left Chittor, Mughals took control of that place but
they were unable to rule over the kingdom of Mewar and became
unsuccessful. Akbar sent a few of his envoys to negotiate with
Rana Pratap Singh for making an alliance with him, but it didn't
work.
7. LEGACY OF RANA PRATAP SINGH
Maharana Pratap Singh did not surrender the Mughal armies which
was led by Akbar and that is why he is considered to be India's first
freedom fighter which was in itself a big thing. Also there are few
television shows made on the life and achievements of Maharana
Pratap Singh. A historic site has also been made to dedicate it to
Maharana Pratap Singh, which is situated at the top of Moti Magri,
Pearl Hill which is situated in Udaipur and named as Maharana
Pratap Memorial. It was built by the Maharana Bhagwat Singh of
Mewar and represented a bronze statue of the great warrior
Maharana Pratap Singh riding his horse Chetak.

9. AKBAR AND MAHRANA PRATAP
1. So long as the people of Mewar swore by their Maharana, Akbar
could not realize his ambition of being the Jahanpanah of
Hindustan.
2. The last of these missions was headed by Raja Man Sing, the
brother-in-law of Akbar himself. Maharana Paratap, angred that
his fellow Rajput was aligned with some one who had forced the
submission of all Rajput, refused to sup with raja man Singh.
3.The lines was completely drawn now – Akbar understood that
Maharana Pratap would never submit and he would have to use
this troops against Mewar.
10. BATTLE OF HALDIGHATI
1. The Battle of Haldighati was a battle fought on 18 June 1576[a] between the Mewar forces led by
Maharana Pratap, and the Mughal forces led by Man Singh I of Amber. The Mughals carried the day
after inflicting significant casualties on Mewar forces, although they failed to capture Pratap, who
reluctantly retreated persuaded by his fellow commanders.
2. The siege of Chittorgarh in 1568 had led to the loss of the fertile eastern belt of Mewar to the Mughals.
However, the rest of the wooded and hilly kingdom was still under the control of the Sisodias. Akbar was
intent on securing a stable route to Gujarat through Mewar; when Pratap Singh was crowned king
(Rana) in 1572, Akbar sent a number of envoys entreating the Rana to become a vassal like many other
Rajput leaders in the region. However, Pratap refused to enter into a treaty, which led to the battle.
3. The site of the battle was a narrow mountain pass at Haldighati near Gogunda in Rajasthan. Sources
differ on the strength of the respective armies but probably the Mughals outnumbered the Mewar forces
by a factor of four to one. Despite initial successes by the Mewaris, the tide slowly turned against them
and Pratap found himself wounded and the day lost. A few of his men under Jhala Man Singh covered
his retreat in a rearguard action. The Mewar troops were not chased in their retreat by Man Singh for
which he was banished from the Mughal court for some time by Akbar.
11.
12. RECONQUEST OF MEWAR
Mughal pressure on Mewar relaxed after 1579 following rebellions in Bengal and Bihar
and Mirza Hakim's incursion into the Punjab. After this, Akbar sent Abdul Rahim Khan-i-
Khanan to invade Mewar but he stopped at Ajmer. In 1582, Pratap Singh attacked and
occupied the Mughal post at Dewair (or Dewar) in the Battle of Dewair.[24][unreliable
source?] This led to the automatic liquidation of all 36 Mughal military outposts in
Mewar. After this Akbar sent Jagannath Kachhwaha to invade Mewar in 1584. This time
too Mewar army defeated Mughals and forced them to retreat. In 1585, Akbar moved to
Lahore and remained there for the next twelve years watching the situation in the north-
west. No major Mughal expedition was sent to Mewar during this period. Taking
advantage of the situation, Pratap recovered most of Mewar (except its former capital),
Chittorgarh and Mandalgarh regions by defeating Mughal forces there. During this
period, he also built a new capital, Chavand, near modern Dungarpur.[25]
13.
14. REVIVAL OF MEWAR
Maharana Pratap took refuge in the Chappan area and started attacking the
Mughal strongholds. By 1583 he had successfully captured western Mewar,
which included Dewar, Amet, Madariya, Zawar and the fort of Kumbalgarh.
He then made Chavand his capital and constructed a Chamunda mata
temple there. The Maharana was able to live in peace for a short time and
started establishing order in Mewar. From 1585 till his death, the Rana had
recovered a large part of Mewar. The citizens who had migrated out of
Mewar started returning during this time. There was good monsoon which
helped to revive the agriculture of Mewar. The economy also started getting
better and trade in the area started increasing. The Rana was able to capture
the territories w.est of Chittor but could not fulfill his dream of capturing
Chittor itself.
15. DEATH
At the age of 56, on 29 January 1597, the
great warrior Maharana Pratap left. The
reason for his demise was the injuries which
he got during the struggle against the
Mughal Empire. His eldest son Amar Singh
succeeded him to the throne and became a
king of Mewar.
