You will get raided a lot in the middle east but, you will have to suck it up because its not worth losing Baghdad.
In my campaign with lots of help from Astaroth and other members I was able to take over all of India, all of Africa, and now I have Nizam I cedid troops. Right now I have a full stack of new soldiers going to the Netherlands to take care of my former ally. And I still have all my holdings in the Balkans.
Taking over India is very hard, esspecially for me because after I took most Mughal lands I was hoping for some peace. But, then all of a sudden the Marathas DOW on me and I had to defeat them. By the time my conquest of India was complete I had over 8000 troops with atleast one chevron, but it is worth it because I make over 14000 a year.
