Explanation:
Sangam poems mention the muvendar, the three chiefs, referring to the heads of the three powerful kingdoms of the south: the Cholas, the Cheras, and the Pandyas.
Each kingdom had two centres, one inland and one coastal. For example, the coastal centre of the Cholas was Puhar (or Kaveripattinam), and that of the Pandyas was Madurai.
They did not take regular taxes but demanded gifts from their people. And they also frequently went on military expeditions (battles and wars) to collect tributes from neighbouring areas and kingdoms.
