Battle of Kalinga (260-61 BC): The history of the country and the world changes
The well-known historian-science writer H. G. In his book 'An Outline of the World History', Wales has written that thousands of emperors, Rajarajeswaras, Maharajagirajas, princes, etc. have filled the pages of history. In it, only the name of Emperor Ashoka is shining like a bright star. The reason behind this was to keep an eye on the conflict between the Battle of Kalinga and subsequent changes in India's history.
Ashok was the powerful ruler of the Mauryan Empire. He did not only maintain the tradition of the empire through his grandfather Chandragupta's military campaign, but he also increased it further. The large proportion of it is the Battle of Kalinga, which he had built in 260-61 BC. The Kalinga War had two factions. Kalinga situated in Ashok and Badasudur, a crocodile emperor, means that today is Orissa.
Before going to the Battle of Kalinga, introduce this war hero Ashoka. Ashoka, the son of Bindusar, founder of the Mauryan empire and his son. According to the Buddhist script 'MahaShash', Bindusar had 16 queens and 100 sons. Ashoka was the son of his first queen Dharma. According to contemporary sources, Ashoka was black and erect; He had a younger brother, whose name was Tishya. After the death of Bindusar, he was not the eldest son but Ashok wanted to be a Mauryan emperor as the best son, but his revelation was not easy. In the time of Bindusar, it was a subset of Avanti, ie today's Ujjain. At the same time, Ashok had crushed the rebellion of Takhshila. There was an affair with a virgin girl. They were not legally married. According to one view, Ashok's brother, Mahindra and Sangamitra, who helped in the promotion of Buddhist monastery, were the result of this love affair. Both children lived in Vidisha for life. The reason given is that neither the Kshatriya clan nor the prince could accept them. His embarrassment was mainly with Sasim. At the beginning of his career Ashok was a very cruel and brutal person. Sujim and his other brothers have been killed in the fight against Ashok Sasim. Ashok, who was notoriously known as 'Champadhak', was also strangled as a rabbit in the palace's palace. Servants are beheaded for minor crimes. Ashok hunts in a raging way. In the kitchen of the palace, many cattle are consumed every day. The meat of deer and peacock was very dear to Ashoka.

Such rulers only raised the Vishal empire from today's Kashmir to Tamilnadu, from imperialistic perspective. Ashok, who won Kashmir, also founded Srinagar. One obstructive state in the Vishal empire was Orissa and ancient times of Kalinga. Kaling was independent after Nandvana's demise, Ashoka's grandfather Chandragupta and father Bindusar could not even bring Kalinga into the Maurya Empire. Kalinga was once considered a rich and glorious region. Kalinga was spread on the north by the Vaitarni River, in the west, Amarkantak in the west and Mahendergiri in the south. There the king ruled Anantnathan or Infinite Panabhan.
Killing was a very expansive appetite for winning, but it was imperative to capture Kaling in the middle of the sea and the land route to control southern India. Kalinga's independent existence was disruptive in the maritime trade of Magadh and South India. Thus, the battle of Kalinga became certain due to Ashok's hunger and the commercial intention of the power of Ashoka.
The invasion of Kalinga and the details of the war are available from Ashoka's inscriptions and from the following literature. Accordingly, Ashoka attacked Kalinga in the ninth year of his rule. Ashok rides with Vishal army and elegant preparations, for the Kalingavijay, in the year 260 BC. In his army, there were 60 thousand army soldiers, a thousand warriors, a force of seven hundred elephants, and elite generals who could make enemies of the war in the battle. There was a conflict between the Ashoka and Kalinga states between the Mahanadi and Godavari region. This fierce battle was fought on the bank of the river Dia and Dhauli, 8 kilometers south of today's Bhubaneshwar. Clinging with Ashoka's intentions and vivid preparation, Kalinga was not able to be devoted. Every person of freedom-loving Kalinga was ready to face Ashok. Army and their military arrangements were formed in Samas, but now there was only left to be dumped. It's about tomorrow ...
