		The title itself as used in Egypt had only very recently been introduced by the British when they declared a protectorate over Egypt in 1914.
		In the 18th and 19th century, Ottoman sultans used this title to optimum effect as the rallying call to all Muslims in order to thwart colonialist designs on the diminishing Ottoman territories.

		The eldest surviving son of Akbar, Prince Salîm, on his accession to the throne in 1605, assumed the title of Núr-ud-din Jahangir (Light of the Faith, Conqueror of the World).
		The throne was, therefore, probably made to commemorate the recognition by Akbar of his son's title to the succession.
