Answer:

1... Janapadas and Mahajanapadas. The Janapadas were the major kingdoms of Vedic India. ... With the development of iron in parts of UP and Bihar, the Janapadas became more powerful and turned into Mahajanapadas. There were sixteen such Mahajanapadas during 600 B.C. to 325 B.C. in Indian Sub-continent

2.These Mahajanapadas were either monarchical or republican in character. Whereas the monarchies were concentrated in the Gangetic Plains, the republics were ranged round the northern periphery of these kingdoms-in the foothills of the Himalayas and just south of these, and in north-western India in modern Punjab.
