Answer:

Rajas or kings in the early ancient times were chosen by jana (the people), but later they were chosen through sacrifices and offerings.

The Ashwamedha yajna or the horse sacrifice was a major ritual in ancient India. In this sacrifice, a horse was let loose and wandered into other kingdoms. If a king of another kingdom stops the horse, the king who set the horse free wages a war against him.  

But if the horse passes through a kingdom unharmed, the kingdom becomes a feudatory (official part) of the parent kingdom.

The raja who organised this kind of sacrifice was considered very powerful, and had a special seat such as a throne or tiger skin.

His relatives, sons, and wives performed minor sacrifices, and the other rajas were mere spectators.

Priests performed the ceremony and ordinary people called vish or vaishya brought gifts

Hope it helps you! Have a nice day :)
