The word 'janapada' literally means 'the land where the jana set its foot and settled down'. A janapada was formed when people settled down at a place and started living in settlements.
The Sanskrit term janapada is a tatpurusha compound term, composed of two words: janas and pada. Jana means "people" or "subject" (cf. Latin cognate genus, English cognate kin). The word pada means "foot" (cf. ... Sanskrit padám, usually taken to mean "footprint, trail", diverges in accent from the PIE reconstruction.
