The kingdom was divided into different administrative units during the rule of the Vijayanagar empire in southern India which ruled from 1336 CE to 1672 CE. These administrative units were called Mandalams, Nadus, Sthalas, and Gramas.
Darya was succeeded by Burhan Imad Shah. He ruled from 1562 to 74 CE. He mostly remained aloof even after joiningthe confederacy against Vijayanagar with the other Deccani sultanates which caused great dissatisfaction among them.
