  1. A
    Bijapur
  2. B
    Berar
  3. C
    Ahmednagar
  4. D

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Chand Bibi is celebrated in medieval history for her leadership skills. She served as the regent of the Bijapur Sultanate (during the minority of Ibrahim Adil Shah II) and subsequently as the regent of her native Ahmednagar Sultanate, where she famously defended the fort against the imperial Mughal armies led by Prince Murad. Since Ahmednagar is her most prominent historical association as a ruler, it forms the definitive answer here.
