Solution
Babur lost his father when he was eleven years old, and at that age, he became the king of Farghana, a minor principality in Central Asia that he inherited from his father. He also realised his aim of conquering Samarkand when he was only 14 years old. However, he quickly lost Farghana and Samarkand and became homeless, but thanks to his strength and resolve, he eventually became the ruler of Kabul.
