hi friend here is your answer ________,
Samudra Gupta, regional emperor of India from about 330 to 380 CE. He generally is considered the epitome of an "ideal king" of the "golden age of Hindu history," as the period of the Imperial Guptas (320-510 CE) has often been called. The son of king Chandragupta l and the Licchavi princess kumaradevi, he is pictured as a muscular Warrior, a poet, and a musician who displayed "marks of hundreds of wounds received in battle". in many ways he personified the Indian conception of the hero.
Samudra Gupta was chosen as Emperor by his father over the contenders and apparently had to repress revolts in his first years of rule. on pacifying the kingdom, which probably then reached from what is now Allahabad to the borders of Bengal, he began a series of wars of expansion from his Northern base near what is now Delhi. in the southern Pallava Kingdom of Kanchipuram, he defeated King Vishnugopa, then restored him and other defeated Southern Kings to their Thrones on payment of tribute. several Northern king were uprooted,however, and their territories added to the Gupta Empire. at the height of Samudragupta's power, he controlled nearly all of the valley of the Ganga river and received homage from rulers of parts of East Bengal, Assam, Nepal, the Eastern part of the Punjab, and various Tribes of Rajasthan. he exterminated 9 Monarchs and subjugated 12 others in his campaigns.
