Answers
Warfare for Wealth
Ruling dynasties were based in specific regions; but, they tried to control others areas. Kanauj in Ganga valley was an area the Gurjara-Pratihara, the Rashtrakuta, and the Pala dynasties tried to control for centuries; historians describe it as the "tripartite struggle".
Rich temples were targeted first when one ruler attacked another's kingdom, because large temples were built to demonstrate power and resources.
Sultan Muhamud Gazni, from Afghanistan, ruled for 33 years and extended his control over parts of Central Asia, Iran, and north-western part of the subcontinent; his main strategy was to attack and loot wealthy temples, like the Somnath temple in Gujarat.
Mahmud used all this wealth to built his splendid city of Ghazni but he also wanted to know more about the people he conquered and so he appointed a scholar named al-Beruni to write an account of the sub-continent.
His book the Kitab-al-Hind is regarded as one of the foremost sources of the history of India.
The Chahamanas later known as the Chauhans ruled in areas around Ajmer and Delhi and tried to extend their rule but were defeated by the eastern Chalukyas of Gujarat and the Gahadvalas of western Uttar Pradesh.
Their greatest ruler was Prithviraj Chauhan II who defeated the Afghan Muhammad Ghori in 1191 but lost to him in 1192.
