The Rashtrakuta Dynasty | That Time a South Indian Empire Conquered the Heart of North India

"Discovery of India" Playlist Link: • Playlist
This video is about the Kannada Rashtrakuta Dynasty, which established a powerful, highly-militaristic empire that ruled for over two hundred years. The Rashtrakutas "Tripartite" struggle with the Pratiharas and the Palas over the heart of North India -- Kannauj -- is fundamental to the politics and history of the early medieval era in India.
It may surprise many casual Indian history buffs to learn that for many decades between the 8th and 10th centuries CE, there were Kannada speaking soldiers and nobles conquering and administering large swathes of North, West, and Central India.
Enjoy!

I am gonna share this with my friends and family. I am sure they are gonna love it. Could you do an episode on Hoysalas and try to give an insight on how the people lived in medieval India? What was the kind of food they ate? The culture and all. That would be so good

5 years of secondary education is enough to have significant chapters on all the great empires of the past, in my opinion. Given the kind of influence we have in our country's administration, it is only logical to think these great empires have been excluded out of the curriculum deliberately

[@blackpole5936]

@@keerthichandra376 Yes. Same thinking! We have 5 yrs to teach students till 10th. 1st goes to human evolution & then continue from ancient Indian kings till independence. It's easy but they focus only on Mughal, Britishers & European history 😒 no matter which state. As Maharashtrian I feel proud that we were under Rashtrakuta Chalukya Dynasty after Satvahana Dynasty. At that time as kannada, Prakrit(Maharashtri) was also one of the govern language in Rashtrakuta & Chola dynasty. From Satvahana to chalukya Sanskrit, telagu, kannada & Prakrit were used by all kingdom and people. At that era people were multilingual & have 0 discrimination over regional language. You will find descendants of both Rashtrakuta & Chalukya in Maharashtra & Gujarat region. But now both have forgott history due to wrong interpretation of history & North South/ aryan-dravidian fake propoganda & politics.

[@karnatakula]

Evidence for human habitation in Karnataka exists until at least the 2nd millennium BCE, and it is postulated to have had contact with the Indus Valley civilisation. The existence of artifacts (such as Roman coins) shows Karnataka was involved in trade as early as the 1st century CE. In the 4th century BCE the land was ruled by the Mauryans and Jainism was very popular. After the Mauryas, parts of Karnataka were variously ruled by dynasties either ethnically Kannadiga or outside. The Kadambas, Chalukyas, Rashtrakutas and Holysalas were some of the many major Kannada kingdoms and dynasties ruling the region. The Vijayanagara Empire was founded by Kannadiga chieftains and they were great patrons of Kannada art and literature. The Kannada language has written inscriptions since 450 CE. Kannada literature is mostly composed of poems and treatises on religious works. Kannada architecture is dominated by stone-carved sculptured palaces and temples. The ruins of Hampi are a UNESCO World Heritage site. Kannada music and dance is rich and varied, including both complex.

[@hellocreep8986]

Commies responsible for this bro

[@sowmitriswamy6718]

@Saurav Singh If you are going to blame commies or anybody else, you need to back up your statements with logical arguments and facts of why you think that is so. You have hardly done that. If you are thinking of school textbooks, are you aware that school curriculum including textbooks are decided by individual states. Delhi or commies do not have a say in the matter. If you are thinking of University education, that is also the case with the exception of Central Universities. The vast majority of colleges and Universities are either private or run by state boards and curriculums are set by the University board based on the degree of autonomy the University has from the state government. . Regarding the Kushan empire, thee is plenty of material on that even in school textbooks which mention Kanishka and the Buddhist council. If there is a bias, it is perhaps regional. In the South we never heard of the Pala kingdom in Bengal, while in the North the Gangas, Rashtrakutas, Chalukyas, are barely mentioned. A better word than bias is parochialism, an intellectual laziness to engage with eh vast and complex history of India.

Hello there, odd compass, I am Anurag.R.Simha from Karnataka. I am a native speaker of the Kannada language. I am solemnly grateful to you for sharing a video based on the forgotten empire, the Rashtrakutas. Unfortunately, the point I lament is, the history we are taught at school. South India is almost completely neglected. Also if there's some south Indian history, it's only the Cholas who receive the spotlight. The Kannadains never get to learn about their history at schools. We don't get to learn about our ancestors and their profound accomplishments. I heartfully thank you for this video. Now I got some information on Karnataka's history. The sketchings of the royal members in your video are marvellously apt for the topic you narrate. I would also like to share with you, the name of another dominant empire of Kannada origin. The Hoysala empire. An empire that's indelible in the heart of every Kannadain (An anglicised term I created for a Kannada native). An empire with such a profound architecture erasable by none! The empire ruled by the great sovereign, King Vishnuvardhana! I solemnly appeal to you to make a video on the Hoysalas and the architecture of the Hoysalas which I call, the Hoysalan architecture in an anglicised manner. This video you created helped me to understand with no qualm the vast history of the Rashtrakuta empire. And once again, thank you for the excellent video, old compass (Sincere apologies for not being aware of what your name is). Keep up the good work. May God be with thee. Good heavens! How fascinating is history! Jai Karnataka!! Jai Kannada!!

That's great info 👍 Amoghavarsha Nrupatunta is the long term ruler in Indian history. And another fact is only Kannada dynasties from South India have given tough competition and defeated North Indian dynasties. Maybe RajaRaja Chola extended his dynasty outside India but he didn't defeated any North Indian Kings. But Kannada King Pulakeshin II (Immadi Pulekeshi) defeated famous North Indian King Harshavardhana (Shree Harsha) in battle of Narmada. And he given back Harsha's territory. From then Pulakeshin II and Harshavardhana become good friends.

For many years, Satavahanas were thought to be Maharashtrians. They were actually Andhras from the Krishna region. Similarly many do not know that Rashtakutas are of Kannada origin. Eastern Chalukya founder Vishnuvardhan was the brother of Pulakesi the 2nd. His boyhood friend Bharavi wrote Kiratanarjuneeyayam which is a Mahakavya in Sanskrit. The Eastern Chalukyas ruled the Telugu speaking Vengi kingdom for many years. The last in that line got the Mahabharata written in Telugu by Nannaya. He had a Kannada poet Narayana Bhat in his court. But his works are not available. In fact the scripts for Telugu and Kannada were identical till Krishnadeva Raya's period. Even Sanskrit works were written in that script. Finally the Eastern Chalukya lineage merged with the Cholas. Kulottunga was a Chalukya Prince adopted by his maternal uncle who was the Chola Emperor. The history of the Southern India was neglected by many Indian historians.

I bet any north indian know about this empire and even kannadigas(those who speak kannada and lives in Karnataka) know about him his empire and his story. The great amoghavarsha(full name - amoghavarsha nruputunga) was was so kind and humble, once there wad draught and people/animal's were dying after seeing this situation he decided to pray to god/godess, he sacrificed his hand/finger for the people and after some time everything was sorted out. It's not about sacrifice or beliefs it's about a king(that time king had everything and literally enjoyed everything)decided to do such things for the people well being, it's unseen in the past. Due to his culture, tradition, diversity, adminstration and peaceful rule he often compared and named as sothern "the great Ashoka".

[@HistoryandHeadlines]

I'm glad you contributed to the collaboration! It has been great watching all of these this past hour!

I appreciate that! Loved your video on Alexander's invasion as well :)

Glad you liked it!

[@admirekashiri9879]

@@OddCompass I love history bro I looked up Indian history and discovered the most known parts like the Gupta and Mughals but, I knew nothing about these other kingdoms snx empires from the south you've shed light on its awesome. Btw you should do a video on the Western Indian Ocean trade network I believe Indians traded with my ancestors in Zimbabwe indirectly via the Swahili and Somali in the medieval era.

[@OddCompass]

I absolutely will! It’s on the agenda. If you’re curious about East African links, I can also recommend my video on Malik Ambar 👍🏽

[@admirekashiri9879]

@@OddCompass oh I've seen that too loved it I knew about Malik Ambar but, you went into more detail. It was again another awesome piece of history they don't shed much light on. Honestly I hope one day we see more stories in pop culture based in India (done right ofcourse). Anyway can't wait to see more of your content keep up the good work.

Amoghavarsha Nrupatunga was known as Ashoka of South, he was the longest living emperor in world, however our history books talk about destroyers, his reign saw peace all over India, he clearly mentions about map of Kannada speaking people in his literary work Kavirajamarga, today it feels sad Marathi brothers and sisters talk about taking lands of Karnataka, whenever you feel that never once forget you all were part of same tradition culture and language during period of time you all got separated, even today all historical temples have Kannada inscriptions in Maharashtra, Always respect each as brothers and sisters and never forget the glorious past of Karanataka empires 😍

That time islamic califat extended far west to Spain and east to sindha and punjab, Avanijaashraya Pulikeshi and Vikramaditya 2 of chalukya fought with islamic califat and thrown out upto Afghanistan. It's recorded in Navasaari stone inscription in 7th century.
