Q5:- Give an account of the
administration and institutional systems in North India from the earliest times
to 7th century A.D.
The
Pallavas were a dynasty of South India. They ruled for a very long time, for as
many as six centuries from third century AD onwards. Initially they were a
small power in what is now northern Tamil Nadu, with their capital at
Kanchipuram. From the sixth century they figure as a major regional power,
dominating a large territory that included the domains of several small rulers,
and defending it in an almost continuous series of wars against the Pandyas of
Madurai (southern Tamil Nadu) and the Chalukyas. Their power began to wane from
about mid-eighth century.
