Indian Empire Of History
Do you know which was the first empire to come to India or have you ever wondered what India would have looked like 45 years ago? And do you know about the last empire of India? If not then definitely watch the video till the end because today I am going to tell you the complete history of all the Indian states in just 10 minutes. So let’s start the video. Friends, about 45 years ago i.e. in 500 BC, India was a desert country, that is, there was no trace of humans here. Many years later, around 1500 BC, Indo Aryans came to India in search of land.
Indo Aryans were our ancestors who were living in Afghanistan till this time and due to drought in Afghanistan everything was ruined there and they came to India in search of habitable land and after coming here they settled and also developed a lot. . After which we now move directly to 322 BCE when India’s first empire, the Maurya Empire, was established. Now you must be wondering what would have happened to Aryan.
So friends, let me tell you that Maurya was from Aryan itself i.e. both were one and the same. Because when Maurya was in North India, the Aryans were also in North India and Chanakya, who was considered a great teacher of the Maurya Dynasty, also wrote his Arthashastra in Sanskrit language. That Sanskrit language was also used by the Aryans and according to this, the Aryans were from the Mauryas onwards and at this time only their names were different.
Now let’s talk about what is Maurya Umpire and how did it come into existence? In 323 BC, Porus defeated Alexander in the battle and now after the death of Alexander, his powers and fear also ended. Chandragupta Maurya took advantage of this and established the Maurya Empire and during his reign, he made almost half of India and the entire Afghanistan his territory, after which he died. After this comes Ashoka the Great. He is considered great because he did a lot for India during his rule.
First of all, Ashoka had captured almost the entire united India, after which he established political unity internal peace in his empire and he also expanded Indian trade to a great extent. Which also included other trades like species and silk textile. So now if there is business then goods will be sold and when goods are sold then money will come and when money comes then people will be rich and if people are rich then they will be happy.
And Ashoka became the reason for people’s happiness and that is why he was given the title of Great and he came to be known as King Ashoka the Great and to celebrate his greatness, we got our National Anthem and Ashoka Chakra in his name. But if Ashoka was really so great then how did he become the reason for the beginning of the destruction of the Maurya Empire?
Actually he took part in Kalinga War and he also won this war. But there was huge loss of life and property in this war. About 10 thousand people lost their lives and 1.5 lakh deputations took place and Ashoka could not bear their grief and he took exile. And due to this, King Brihadrath took the responsibility of the Maurya Empire upon himself. But Pushyamitra Shunga, the commander of King Brihadratha, killed his king. After which India’s second umpire Shung Umpire started. But after some time Pushyamitra Shunga also died.
After which his son Agnimitra became the king and Agnimitra expanded the borders of his empire to Kashmir and also made Mathura art style famous in the country and abroad. Due to which his empire benefited a lot and became very rich. After attaining age, Agnimitra also passed away and his throne was taken over by his own descendant Devbhuti. But King Devbhuti had one weakness and that was women. King Devbhuti ruined his built empire because of women.
In the greed of an Apsara, he transferred his entire kingdom to the Canvas Dynasty and went away with the Apsara. After which the dynasty kept changing in India with time and finally after the destruction of sex dynasty, our third umpire D Chola umpire came. D Chola Empire ruled India for 1500 years and became the longest ruling empire in the world and after occupying its territory, Chola created Indian heritage. He also built many temples.
But the Cholas became so busy building them that they were unable to defend their captured lands and the Pallava Dynasty destroyed the Cholas, with which the wheel of time turned and something else. Years passed and with time, a total of 14 dynasties had ruled India and now 320 AD had come and our fourth umpire, Gupta Umpire, had come to India.
Where the first king of Gupta Empire, Chandragupta Maurya, in his marriage, Vasu Rao Varma, father of his wife Kumaradevi, gave the entire kingdom of Pataliputra of West India as a wedding gift to Chandragupta and now this entire area came under the Gupta Empire. Chandragupta Maurya expanded his empire beyond Pataliputra into India.
Educational and scientific revolutions took place in India due to Kalidasa, Aryabhata, Varahamihir and Vatsyayana of the Gupta Empire. He taught the world a lot in Sanskrit literature and mathematics. Then Chandragupta died, after which his son Samudragupta took over his reign.
Samudragupta, also known as Napoleon of India, is known for his vicious swordsmanship. He built many temples during his time and also fought many wars and while fighting in one of these wars, he attained martyrdom. None of the subsequent kings of the Gupta Empire were so skilled and that is why the Hans Dynasty defeated them and established their kingdom.
After this, many years passed and 13 more dynasties also passed and now that dynasty has come to India which occupied more land of India than the Chola Empire and less than the Gupta Empire. We are talking about our fifth empire, the Eastern Ganga Empire. Its king Indra Varman I had expanded his kingdom from Orissa to here but before that he could do anything for India. The Mughals entered India and started fighting them and from 505 to 1985, the Eastern Ganga Empire fought them. Where.
This war was going on near the Kaveri River in Karnataka, while our Chhatwan Umpire, the first umpire, had arrived in Bengal, India at this time, who had ruled here for 400 years and then in 1000 CE. Our seventh umpire, the Hoysala umpire, had come, after which the Eastern Ganga umpire and the Hoysala umpire came together and started fighting against the Mughals. But in 1985 AD. Sultan Firoz Shah Tughlaq of Delhi attacked Orissa.
After which Ganga umpire and Pal umpire were devastated. But we still had the Hoysala umpire but by this time he had come to India. Alauddin Khilji and he also eliminated the Hoysala umpire and now the time had come for the eighth and ninth umpires of India. Mughal umpire and Khilji umpire. Talking about Khilji Umpire, Alauddin Khilji came to India and demolished many temples here, which included six big and more than 50 small temples. It attacked Somnath temple and stole 20 million dinars.
Many small villages around Somnath were destroyed and the Nalanda Library and the nine million manuscripts kept in it were burnt. Khilji tried his best to ruin India between 1220 and 1316 and he died in 1316. After Alauddin Khilji, no one of his heirs was capable of ruling. After which the Mughals wiped out all traces of the Khilji Empire. After this, Babar became the king of the throne of India by winning the first battle of Panipat.
After which these Mughals ruled India for 300 years, now Babar’s descendants were Humayun, Akbar, Jahangir, Shahjahan, Alamgir, Aurangzeb and 18 more names are included in this and their only contribution to India is that they created peace between Hindu and Muslim people. People converted to religion and those who did not change their religion were taxed. That means Jizya system and making farmers pay heavy taxes for their own land.
That is, due to the Zamindari system and the 300 years of Mughal rule in India, India started looking completely green. After which suddenly the saffron flag was hoisted in the country. This was the flag of Marathas. Whose Maharaja was Maharaj Chhatrapati Shivaji Bhosale, whose father was Shahaji Maloji Bhosale. Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj brought and established the rule of Hindus in India. India’s 10th Empire:
The Maratha Empire. Meanwhile, the Mughal Empire Jahangir accepted the proposal of the British to trade in India and now the British started coming to India and at the same time there was a war between Lahore and Punjab of today’s Pakistan, in which on one side was Punjab of the 11th Empire of India. The lion of Maharaja Ranjit Singh, who was only 17 years old at this time and on the other side was Zaman Shah Durrani of Afghanistan and this battle was won by Maharaja Ranjit Singh with great bravery.
There was an atmosphere of happiness all around, but these British, who had come to join hands with us for business, started fighting with us and now their blue flag started appearing all over India. Which meant there would be war once again. But this time this war broke out all over India. Maharaja Ranjit Singh of Punjab defeated the British many times in battle.
But in Maharashtra, the third hand of the Maratha Empire and the last ruler of the Peshwa, Peshwa Bajirao, lost in two battles with the British East India Company and after this, the Sikh Army was defeated in the First Anglo-Sikh War in Punjab and suddenly the British were in control of the entire India. Let’s collect. After which India’s 12th and last empire, the British Empire, is established. These British did some unforgettable works in India like economy, depression, Zamindari system, commercialization of agriculture.
Jallianwala Bagh massacre. India’s participation in World War 2 and much more. But it also brought some great developments to India. Like Evolution of Caste and Sati, Established Democracy, Railway System, Updating, India’s Education System and Making India Really India. After this, a great man of India, our Bapu Mahatma Gandhi, sat on a fast and said that he will fast until these white people leave India. And then after a long struggle, finally on 15 August 1947, India became independent from the British and since 1947, our country and its children are free.
Anyway, see you again with the powerful explanation of the History.
