The area remained under Muslim domination and influence in the early medieval era. At first, the Tughlaq increased their influence in the south. Alauddin Khilji made his military campaign until Madurai, but after his death his empire could not last. In 1323, the Muslim Bahmani Sultanate was established by the Turks.

A few years later, the Hindu Empire of Vijayanagara was established. There was a struggle for power in both. Vijayanagar fell in 1565. The fall of the Sultanate of Bahmani led to the formation of 5 new kingdoms: Bijapur and Golconda were the most powerful. Aurangzeb gained his dominance in the Deccan at the end of the 17th century, but at the same time Marathas emerged under the leadership of Shivaji. The Marathas ruled until the end of the 18th century, after which Mysore and other local rulers emerged. But within 50 years of this, all of southern India became British. Swarajya arrived in 1947.
