Explain how, the nanda king had set up a good administrative system
Answers
Explanation:
The Buddhist, Jain, and Puranic scriptures all say there were nine Nanda kings, but the names of these kings vary considerably from the sources.
Some of the Nanda kings that were mentioned by Mahabodhivamsa were Mahapadma Nanda, Panduka, Pandugati, Bhutapala, Rashtrapala, Govishanaka, Dashasiddhaka, Kaivarta, and Dhana Nanda.
Dhana Nanda was the last Nanda ruler and was believed to be one of the sons of Mahapadma Nanda.
He ruled over Parsii, or Parchya (the eastern), people. He extended the empire to Bihar, Bengal, Punjab, and Sindh.
According to the Sri Lankan Buddhist text, Mahavamsa, there were 9 Nanda kings. They were brothers who ruled in succession for a total of 22 years. This was written in Pali language.
These nine kings were: Ugra-sena, (Uggasena in Pali), Panduka, Pandugati, Bhuta-pala, Rashtra-pala, Govishanaka, Dasha-siddhaka, Kaivarta, and Dhana.
The Nanda kings established a monarchy that was based on bureaucracy and a strong army. Their conquests gave way to the unification of India.
Its founder was believed to be a representative of an inferior Sudra caste and this gave light to the right of Kshatriyas to hold royal power.
