Explanation:
1.In villages across India, farming is the main production activity. The other production activities, referred to as non- farm activities include small manufacturing, transport, shop-keeping, etc.
2.The deposition of silt by the rivers on its banks make the soil more fertile. Most of the plains are formed by the rivers which carry the silt and deposit on the banks. Such plains are appropriate for agriculture.As a result these plains are quickly inhabit by the people.
3.The Chalukya dynasty was established by Pulakeshin I in 543. Pulakeshin I took Vatapi (modern Badami in Bagalkot district, Karnataka) under his control and made it his capital.
4.To celebrate his conquest, Samudragupta performed the royal Vedic ritual of Ashwamedha, or horse sacrifice. Special coins were minted to commemorate the Ashvamedha, and the king took the title of Maharajadhiraja (or “King of Kings”) even higher than the traditional ruler's title of Maharaja.
5.A plateau which is enclosed or surrounded by mountain ranges is known as an intermontane plateau. The Plateau of Tibet and the Plateau of Mongolia are the two intermontane plateaus in Asia. The Plateau of Tibet is surrounded by the Kunlun Mountains in the north and the Himalayas in the south.
