It was strongest of the several Dardic-speaking states in the region, encompassing whole of Malakand, Buner, Swat and Dir valleys, as well as upper Hazara region. During most of 15th century, the sultanate bordered Kashmir Sultanate to the east, Delhi Sultanate to the south, Timurid Empire to the west and the state of Chitral to the north. Swatis were the dominant group in the kingdom. Their last notable ruler was Sultan Awes Jahangiri, during whose reign the Sultanate was ultimately conquered by Yousafza'i Pashtuns in a series of battles between 1510 and 1518.
