Nasiruddin Humayun

Nasiruddin Humayun:

He was the second Mughal emperor and ruled northern parts of India from 1530–1540 and again from 1555–1556. Like his father, Babur, he lost his kingdom early, but with Persian aid, he eventually regained an even larger one. His succession of his father throne was on the year 1530, while his half-brother Kamran Mirza, who was to become a rather bitter rival, obtained the sovereignty of Kabul and Lahore, the more northern parts of their fathers empire. He ascended his throne at the age of 22 and was somewhat inexperienced when he came to power.

He succeeded his father in India in 1530, while his half-brother Kamran Mirza, who was to become a rather bitter rival, obtained the sovereignty of Kabul and Lahore, the more northern parts of their fathers empire. He originally ascended the throne at the age of 22 and was somewhat inexperienced when he came to power. Humayun lost his Indian territories to the Afghan Sultan, Sher Shah, and only regained them with Persian aid ten years later. Subsequently, in a very short time thereafter, Humayun was able to expand the Empire further, leaving a substantial legacy for his son, Akbar the Great.

guildo hat euch lieb

Guildo Hat Euch Lieb! In English said as "Guildo Loves You All!” is a German entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1998, performed in German by Guildo Horn & Die Orthopädischen Strumpet. At the close of voting, it had received 86 points, placing 7th in a field of 25. "Alf Igel" was false name of television host Stefan Raab who wrote this. The song is a tongue-in-cheek parody of the scalier style for which Germany had become known at previous Contests. Horn sings about his desire to return to "a time of tenderness/When caressing and Cuddling and Loving/Were always written with capitals" and "When I daily wrote in a poetry book:/Yom hoo hoo – I love you".
