1. The word “Navy” is a gift to the present day world from Tamil. It is derived from the Tamil word “Naavaai”. 2. Sozhlas (Cholas) had a dedicated naval fleet. 3. Rajarajan did not invade Sinhalese. He recovered northern Tamil territories from Sinhalese invasion, which was later completely recovered by Rajendran. 4. Rajendra Sozhlan did not directly attack Sri Vijayan kingdom who held Sozhlan merchant vessels, he split his fleet into two, where one sailed straight and the other sailed the unknown and circled back the island without modern navigational compass as in use today. India is proud to have Tamils, just like Telugus, Kannadigas, Malayalis, Marathis, Punjabis, Bengalis, Oriya, Assamese, and all other cultures.

[@senthilkunnur]

​@@vishalautade509 Refer Chau Ju-kua travel records. This population count may not be common in European history. But It is very common in Indian and Chinese history. Eg. 1. Battle of Maski, Chola's army strength was recorded as 900k. 2. Battle of Red Cliffs: Cao Cao's army strength was recorded as 800k. These were invasion forces, which means ~50% force had to be left to guard their home base and other borders. These numbers were confirmed by multiple sources. I don't think it is wise to challenge that. There is a reason why Indian and Chinese regions could afford such a huge population. Do not view Eastern history with western mindset.

Nope, as an Odia and on top of that an Indian, I won't allow that Tamil Nadu has a history to keep Tamil Nadu as 1st, India as 2nd Odias don't do that... Sorry these words are harsh but Kalinga found the navy first, check all our monuments and see for yourself... Plus the trade relation festivals like "Bali Jatra" also speak volumes Cholas killed the relations India has with SE Asia just to satisfy their ego and greed Kalinga was instead a friend to SE Asia and connected them with Indian culture Our naval history predates the Cholas by a margin of 500-1000 years that is... Yet Cholas getting the credit, Marathas getting the credit? Why? Is Kalinga seen as a dead empire? Ngl, the negligence of coverage of issues of Odisha still till modern date also speaks volumes...
