Answer 1

Hello..

This is is your answer..

Conquests:

Samudragupta adopted strategic plans for his conquests of the north and the south. He decided to subdue the neighbouring Kingdoms first before going for distant expeditions. His conquest against Aryavarta was his first campaign. He then dashed against Dakhinapatha and in the third phase he marched on the second Aryavarta War. Besides these main invasions Samudragupta also effected the invasion of Atavika or Forest Kingdoms. He also established diplomatic relations with the states situated in the frontiers of the Gupta empire and finally he exchanged political negotiations with distant foreign powers.

In his first campaign in north India, Samudragupta defeated Achyuta, the ruler of Ahichchhator (modern Ramnagar of Bareilly district), Nagasena the ruler of Padmavati (near Marwar) and Mathura. After having made his position secure in the Ganga-Jamuna Valley he turned his attention towards distant territories of the South.

It is very interesting to note that most of the states which Samudragupta subjugated in the South were situated in the eastern part of the Peninsula and on the Malabar Coast. Samudragupta also wanted to get the benefit of the fabulous wealth of the Southern Kingdoms. Fighting at distant places coming from the Gangetic valley was not a easy task and realising the reality he adopted new tactics at the time of South Indian Campaign..
