Digital reconstruction of Raigad Fort in Maharashtra, [India](https://www.worldhistory.org/india/), as it may have appeared after being expanded by Shivaji (1630–1680 CE) in the 17th Century CE. The British East India bombarded the castle with cannon fire in 1818 CE, considering it a stronghold for pirates. After this, it fell into ruin and disrepair.
