Select your answer for: For how many years did Razia Sultana rule as monarch_______ years?
Show answer

Answer: B. 4

Explanation

Razia Sultana ascended the throne of Delhi in the year 1236 following her father's passing. Her historic reign concluded with her deposition and tragic death in the year 1240 AD. Simple subtraction of her accession year from her deposition year yields a total duration of four years. The Delhi Sultanate was a medieval Islamic empire that stretched across large parts of the subcontinent. Razia Sultana holds the historic distinction of being the very first female Muslim ruler of Delhi. Medieval dynastic politics were frequently characterized by rapid successions, internal rebellions, and fierce political intrigues.

Option A underestimates the total duration by one full year based on historical ascension records. Option C overestimates her actual time spent ruling the Delhi Sultanate by a single year. Option D suggests a six year rule which contradicts well documented medieval historical chronology timelines.
