Burhan Nizam Shah II

Burhan Nizam Shah II (ruled 1591-1595) was the ruler of Ahmadnagar in the Deccan. He was the second son of Hussain Nizam Shah I and Khunza Humayun Begum.
Burhan Nizam Shah's rule was short, as he was a weak and incapable monarch. He was addicted to women and wine, which ultimately led to his fall.
His death in 1595 was followed by a civil war over who should rule. He was eventually succeeded in actual power by his sister Chand Sultan, who ruled in the name of his infant son.
