Samudragupta (r. c. 335 – c. 375 –  CE) was the fourth ruler of the Gupta Empire and the son and successor of Chandragupta I. His rule was one of expansion marked first by the conquest of his immediate neighbours and then by campaigns to the east and the south where chiefdoms and kingdoms were subdued and forced to pay tribute to him. Much of the knowledge of Samudragupta's military exploits comes from the Allahabad Pillar of Ashoka which includes a prashasti (a eulogy) extolling the deeds and virtues of the Gupta emperor. Going by the inscription, Samudragupta exerted direct or indirect control over much of the Indian subcontinent stretching from kingdoms in Nepal and thePunjab in the north all the way to the Pallavakingdom at Kanchipuram in the south-east.

Answer:

Samudragupta (reigned 335-380) is the second ruler of the Gupta Dynasty

Explanation:

Samudragupta (reigned 335-380) is the second ruler of the Gupta dynasty, which ushered in the Golden Age of India. He was a benevolent ruler, a great warrior, and a patron of the arts. Samudragupta, son of Chandragupta, was perhaps the greatest king of the Gupta dynasty. His name appears in the Javanese text Tantrikamandaka. But the most detailed and authentic record of his reign is preserved in the Rock Pillar of Allahabad, composed by Harisena, the poet-court of Samudragupta.Chandragupta, a Magadha Raja, married a Lichhavi princess, Kumardevi, which enabled  him to control the Ganges, the main source of trade in northern India. He reigned in north-central India for about ten years. After his death, his son Samudragupta began to rule the kingdom and did not rest until he conquered almost all of India. His reign can be described as a massive campaign. First he attacked the neighboring kingdoms of Shichchhatra (Rohilkhand) in  and Padmavati (in central India).He conquered all of West Bengal before partition, some kingdoms in Nepal, and took tribute from Assam. It absorbed some tribal states like the Malvas, the Yaudheyas, the Arjunayanas, the Abhiras and the Maduras. Later Kushanas and  Sakas paid tribute to him.
