Were Ancient Vaishya Kings better than Kshatriya Kings

Funny, because Eastern India was pretty much the nucleus of Indian civilization for a LONG time. That includes "retarded" Bihar. Cultural elements were pulsing out of Bihar area into other parts of India, then from India to SE Asia, etc.

Even if we agree Maurya was from Paliputra, wrong but lets agree. Pakistan either had indigenous empires or invaded from west, a part from two ocasions. Gupta Empire and Maurya for just mere 300 years combined. And Maurya ancestry is questionable anyway but Chanakya was born in Pakistan.

Eastern India was hindu ganga civilization, its distinct from Dravidian civilization of South. And hardly had impact on Pakistan a part from 300 years thousands of years ago.

No one is saying that it had a major impact on Pakistan, but Eastern India during that period was the most powerful in South Asia producing many great Kings including Chandragupta Maurya. You must understand that you claiming the Maurya clan is like us claiming the Kamboja clan.:lol:

Actually it did.

Even with the invasions by the Persians, Greeks, Kushans - Gandhara was very much still Indianized

And though the south was speaking a different languages group it's script, religions, etc are very much similar.

Pakistan did not have any indigenous Dynasties as it was mostly under the rule of foreigners during ancient and medieval period.

I think he means the south Indian Pallava Dynasty which spread Indian civilization to Southeast Asia.
Most of the writing systems of Southeast Asia were derived from the Pallava script.


They look from a lot of different parts of India. Their architecture in the beginning for example looks its from Kalinga.

How when Gandhara was indigenous civilization, now you are going to say Ganga land was starting point for Rig Vedic civilization? It was one way traffic from Pakistan to India mostly.

I can think of Hindu Shahis for one, there are many others.

The cultural influence without a fact moved from NW to East India.

No horse riding nomad culture came into India with a bear chest and a dhoti.

These Gandhara art are from 2nd-3rd AD. They were STILL Indianzied even with the Persian, Greeks, Bactarian, Kushan, etc, etc. holding them.

According to the Persian scholar Al-Biruni the origin of the Hindu Shahis was in Kabul in modern Afghanistan.

Doti? I don't see it. I don't see Indianized, as i said ganga only had influence for 300 years in whole history. Upper caste people from Kashmir, Punjab and Sindh are pretty similar in genotype wise but distinct from Indians, check harappadna.

Seem like you have no idea who they were.

Dhoti, many styles of it.

You're completely ignorant of history. Even when that area was being held by whoever, the art work, etc. is still of Indian narratives.It wasnt until the Islamic invasions that changed.

Then you dont know what you're looking at.

This is doubtful considering the fact that even the Hindu Shahi Kingdom built statues for Hindu Gods like Ganesha.

Hindu Shahis were the ancestors of the Suri Pashtun Clan. Many historians agree that Suris where the only Hindus in the region of Khorasan.

Statues can be build anywhere, we are talking about people here. As i said Pakistan is starting point for anything hindu which was adopted by Ganga land. So i don't see anypoint in posting pictures. Do we agree with Rig Vedic people going to Ganga land or not?
