All over India, quite important.from mythological and festival purposes (pongal for example is mainly about the sun, and then cows)

TTA. But not abusive.

Kidding. Have no idea.

Most under rated King of HINDUSTAN (not India) who ruled biggest chunk of all Kings..... Aurangzeb Alamgir

Aurangzeb is single handedly responsible for ensuring the end of the Mughal empire and dynasty.
Quite incompetent in my opinion.

Both had sad endings.Harsha was assasinated in old age.
Pulakeshin died defending his capital which fell to a resurgent pallava dynasty.

Hay ! I know u are not less than any KING (in terms of Knowledge about History)
.
Would you like to Shed some light about "ROLE OF SUBCONTINENT" in terms of its Efficacy and its driving force for the new MODERN world
.
My 2nd Question is that " How Long that area enjoyed status of SUPERPOWER of the world "

Thanks for the compliment.
Superpower -100 yrs of peak maurya rule.100 yrs of peak gupta rule.150 yrs of peak mughal rule(akbar to aurangzeb).Note in all these cases it was not THE sole superpower of its time in world but counted among the superpowers of that era.
two other examples close would be sultanate under alauddin khilji and chola empire peak(50 yrs).

I didn't understand first part of ur question.

@AUSTERLITZ
If i divide World History into 2 Parts
a) Pre Byzantines Era
b) Post Byzantines Era
In both Era Hindustan enjoyed status of WORLD SUPER-POWER, in Pre Byzantines times we've 4 World Powers
1. Byzantines 2. Persia 3. China 4. India

In Post Byzantines time, we've observed one more

5) Russia....
this is what i believe .....

The history books mention Mauryas and Marathas with some details but I have not read a single history book(school) mentioning Ahoms.

Cultural marxism in academics is to be blamed. What children and even we as kids have been learning is political propaganda originating in JNU.

Only time India was superpower in a sense that it towered over rest of the world was during Gupta empire. During Gupta empire, whole of the world except India was in deep shit. Roman Empire had collapsed with their capital sacked,Persia lost to Huns,and China had disintegrated into small kingdoms.

It was probably only time when India was strongest country in world. During Mauryas and Mughals, it had to contend with strong competitors.

One of the most important and powerful character in the famous epic "Mahabharat" was the son of Surya god(Sun god).

I am not sure but Sun god were "devtas" that is they were gods but not one of the ultimate 3 gods.
