<p>Babur obtained ownership of the Kohinoor in 1526. Shah Jahan ordered the creation of a Peacock Throne with Kohinoor embedded as its centerpiece in 1628. The Peacock Throne and the Kohinoor diamond were taken by Persian monarch Nader Shah during his invasion of Delhi in 1739. The diamond stayed in Afghanistan for many years till the Kohinoor was returned to India in 1813 after Maharaja Ranjit Singh overthrew the Afghan Durrani dynasty. However, the British East India Company acquired ownership of the Kohinoor after Ranjit Singh passed away in 1839, pressuring his 11-year-old son Duleep to sign a document handing the diamond to the British Empire.</p>

<p>It should be mentioned that the East India Company was nearly destroyed in the Revolt of 1857, only a few years after they had planned to bring the Kohinoor to England.</p>
