More like kannada empires. We've ruled most part of India for 1000s of years, made several vassals and new empires of Karnataka descent and still don't get enough mention in Indian history books. Even rajputs who ruled like several villages have chapters 🙃
That's likely a deliberate choice to help foster national integration. Ever since independence to this day we've tried to downplay the multitude of independent states India had previously and to emphasize the unity that characterized our freedom struggle.

We still remembered Sri Krishna Deva raya and Timmarasu in state song of Telugu states which has a line. "TIMMARASU DHEEYUKTHI KRISHNA RAYALA KEERTHI" which means "Brilliance of timmarasu and glory of Krishna deva raya". And also he used to have 8 great scholars of Telugu called "Ashata diggajalu" in his court. He himself is a great scholar in Telugu.
@bhagyagopal2484 He was a Tulu. Not kannadiga. But he was a great admirer of Telugu. He himself was a great scholar in Telugu. Most importantly he was one the greatest rulers the world has ever seen. That's the reason why we admire him a lot. BTW his descendents became Telugu.
@bhagyagopal2484 Exactly, he was Tulu and spoke kannada but loved Telugu and even said "Among all the languages of the country, Telugu is the greatest" so he is as Telugu as kannadiga if not more. Don't base your arguments on your feelings. Consider facts. We love him not for being Telugu but for being a great king.
@@vishnusudarsanam5375well he was even called kannada rajya rama rammanna why ? Because under him kannada literature was in peak many literary works were given patronage by him it's a fact belive or don't belive i dont give a f under him itself the nadu kannada works were presented in the court

Krishna DevaRaya is the pride of Karnataka, a great Kannadiga king with roots in Tulunadu , who patronised Kannada and Telugu . He is the greatest of the great Kannadiga kings and the Wodeyar royal dynasty was a dalavoy of Krishna Devaraya
But he is not the greatest kannada king, but one of the great in many, like pulikeshi, chalukya vinayaditya, Vikramaditya, kadamba mayura Varma, Ravi Varma, rashtrakutas govinda, Krishna, indra, amoghavarsha, kalyani chalukyas tailapa, someshwara Vikramaditya 6, hoysalas vishnuvardhana, Ballala, karnataka empires hakka bukka, devaraya 2, Krishna devaraya etc..
I learned many new things about vijayanagar Empire in the video. Loved the detailed perspective you have provided in every battle and each phase of KDR's rise. Loved how you referenced both Persian and Portugese historical accounts on some battles. Thanks.
Amazing video - always love learning more about Vijayanagara! I've been a fan of your channel since your first video about the Cholas and your story-telling and presentation ability have become so good - this is probably one of my favorite videos on UA-cam now. Can't believe the YT algorithm did not show me this video until now. Keep it up, excited to your future videos! Not sure if you are taking suggestions, but would love to learn more about the Tripartite Struggle, especially the Gurjaras and Palas since you already made a video about the Rashtrakutas.
Thank you so much - not just for supporting the channel with a generous tip, but also for supporting the channel since the very beginning. It’s amazing how far this has all come. It’s honestly nostalgic for me to think back to that first video and all the excitement I had about stories still to tell. It really means a lot to me that you’re still following the channel and enjoying the content. Lots more (and varied) content to come! Also, I’ve definitely been contemplating a video on the Palas of Bengal, so that could be coming down the pipeline eventually :)

When discussing his dual nature, you did not mention a very contreversial matter, his language. Sri krishnadevaraya was a kannadiga but he loved telugu, he had 8 poets in his court, and one of them was tenali ramakrishna, who is still celebrated as one of the greatest poets in telugu. Even his masterpiece amuktamalyada was infact written in telugu. I hope you add this point if you do a future video.
@@AY-jy4xf His father was a Tuluva and his mother was of Telugu origin but his most celebrated titles are in Kannada in comparison to Telugu. His inclination towards Telugu is well known but don't forget that Kannada was still the administrative language of the Karnataka Samrajya. Also, don't forget that Tuluvas are Kannadigas too. The word Kannada has both linguistic and geographic meanings and it totally depends on how one uses it.
@@dr.renukrajmedegarpp7603 No SriKrishaDevaraya belongs to Tuluva dynasty.. Before him, Saluva Dynasty ruled the empire. Actually Vijayanagara Empire was founded by Harihara and Bukka who were commanders in Telugu kingdom Kakatiya Empire. They belong to Yadava Sangama dynasty, Later the Vijayanagara Empire was ruled by Saluva dynasty who were Kannadigas.. Immediately after that, Tulu speaking Tuluva dynasty had taken over before Telugu speaking Aravidu dynasty ruled last. So, Vijayanagara Empire was built and prospered under Telugu, Kannada and Tulu speaking kings. Don't fight now.
@@phanirajsrinivasch8108this is also wrong history Hakka and bukka were commanders of Kampili Kingdom. It was ruled by their own brother in law Kampili Raya and his son Kumara Rama Kumara Rama defeated Tughlaq 's army many times being small Kingdom but how much they can survive later he was martyred in battlefield and his commanders (his uncles) hakka and bukka were prisoned in Delhi by Tughlaq but later they came back to South and formed Vijayanagar Empire. Along with that they merged Hoysala Empire under their rule which was another kannada Empire Vijaynagar is actually the capital City (now Hampi) Original name of empire was Karnata Samrajya You can check it in many inscriptions, foreign travellers books, coins, etc since Sangam Dynasty Telugu Dynasty Aravidu was last to rule the and the main reason behind the downfall of the empire Aliya Rama raya was betrayed by Two ghilani Muslim brothers in battle of Rakhas tangadi (battle of talikota) and was brutally assassinated on battlefield
I think this might be top 3 UA-cam videos I’ve ever watched. You are so incredibly talented - the research, storytelling and animations are incredible. Thank you for making this masterpiece.
Amazing, I don’t know how you keep raising the bar for the quality of your videos and research! Btw, for those who liked this video, Odd Compass has a Vijayanagar Empire video that you’ll probably also enjoy.
Loved the videos. Thanks for providing a diverse point of view about Indian history. Thanks for providing Persian and protugese historical accounts for reference.
Im working on this whole world with its own magic system and a conlang and 8000 years of history and your videos have seriously helped so much..its high time we get a huge fantasy series thats not just European culture based (LotR, aSoIaF) but one that's based on Indian culture and spirituality. I will post a video atleast on some aspects of it soon!
There’s the epic Kannada movie called Sri KrishnaDevaraya portrayed by the thespian legendary actor Dr.Rajkumar. One of the best movies I have ever seen.
What demolished the vijayanagar was sheer politics and shrewdness among the Bahmani Sultanates and Vijayanagar Kings. But, religion in the end was one of the deciding factors to determine the battle of Talaikota - Sultanets vs Vijaynagar
All this happened because of what Rama Raya did. On the way back from his campaign against Hussain Nizam Shah I, he let his soldiers loot, kill, rape, steal and burn everything on their way as they pleased while they were crossing the lands of Ali Adil Shah I despite the fact that he was an ally of Rama Raya. This caused the Deccan Sultanates to unite against him, the Gilani brothers to betray him and the capital city of Vijayanagara to be razed to the ground. All of this was simply retribution for what Rama Raya and his men did...
@@abhishekbankar8908 BTW religion wasn't exactly the most important factor in there conflict. Trade and political stability can be considered the ones that influenced almost all decisions of the Southern Kingdoms.. Either way religion was also undoubtedly one factor that bahmanis used
Great to see you back! If you're looking for more ideas, an episode on the Kannauj Triangle Wars / Tripartite Struggle would be great. Edit: Btw, if anyone is interested in the story of the Vijayanagara Empire as a whole, the Fall of Civilizations channel has an excellent documentary on just that topic. :)
@@ArawnOfAnnwn The Tripartite Struggle, also known as the Three-way Struggle for Control of Northern India, was a series of conflicts among the Pratihara Empire, the Rashtrakuta Empire, and the Pala Empire for control over Northern India during the 8th to 10th centuries CE. In the end, none of the three empires emerged as the clear victor. The struggle resulted in significant territorial gains and losses for all three powers, and the political landscape of Northern India continued to shift in the centuries that followed. Eventually, other dynasties and kingdoms rose to prominence in different regions of India, marking the end of the Tripartite Struggle period.
@@nknkannadiga9742 I know what the Tripartite Struggle was, and there's a reason it's also known as the Kannuaj Triangle Wars - cos it was centered on the region of Kannauj. And ultimately the Pratiharas took control of Kannauj. In any case such differing interpretations and competing narratives are exactly why it would make for a great subject for a video!

One of the greatest Emperors to ever walk the sub continent. Every aspect of the empire thrived under him be it military, religion, culture, language, art, architecture literally everything saw new peaks.
I’ve learned a lot about Indian that I didn’t know. I’m glad you’re telling us about more than the Indus Valley /Dravidian Civilization; its fall to the Aryan invaders; the Moguls (Mongols) who invaded in the Middle Ages spread Islam and founded Sikhism; and the eventual conquest by the British. I really find history of Southern India fascinating especially the Cholas. India is really a (sub) continent because it was composed of many nations and kingdoms not all one nation a culture like its portrayed by Western media just like Africa is portrayed as one big country instead of as the 2nd largest continent with the most diverse population and cultures in the world.
KDR had made many mistakes which later became the cause of the empire to befall. 1. Bad design of forts for not inculcating the heavy artillery 2. Killing his own PM and father figure and his family, accepting his mistake later of doing so, all his lords saw this as greatly disheartening while Rama Raya sides seemed more and more appealing 3 . Act of kindness for letting the civilians leave in richur and later plundering the whole sultanate, his impulsiveness was seen as unjust and at the same time threatening for all the other sultanates of vijaynagar. 4. And later not reassuring them nor weakening rather he allowed them to strengthen themselves and when later Ram Raya also started playing one Sultan against other it backfired horribly and subsequent invasion marked the end of vijaynagar
That's some serious work Odd Compass. The story of Sri Krishna Deva Raya isn't taught much in schools. We only know the stories because of the movies and TV series made. That too in a vague way. This video puts the perspective close to what has happened. Appreciate your work ❤️
You’re going to be very pleased with the content of the video coming up after the next one. Not “specifically” focused on Kanishka, broader than that, but Kushans are certainly a major part.
KDR and Vijaynagar empire is perhaps the most underrated emperor and empires in the world. KDR was a Tuluva king (from the Tulu speaking community). Vijaynagar empire was one of most prosperous kingdom at that time in the world...with the capital being the second biggest city in the world where traders from world over came.
The two greatest hindu hero's are Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj and Great Tuluva Krishnadeva Rai the magnificent. Unfortunately our text books don't give any respect to anyone south of the Deccan.
Sri krishna deva Raya RAI😂😂😂.. from where did u join rai....surname . Who are the parents of Kdr😂.both were kannadigas .. How come tuluva king never wrote in tulu language😂. His wives were from karnataka. He promoted kannada as court language. Promoted telugu tamil sanskrit.. Kannadigas are proud of tulu kodava language and love respect promot it as sister languages but we hate insecure tuluvas of mumbai😂. Dont impose tulu in kundapura😂..see we need to live united life just like kannadigas and tuluvas of dakshina kannada district otherwise mallus.konkanis and maratis will claim our land ... By the way telgu people used to claim entire vijaynagara empire.then came down to kDR... Now it is only araveethi dynasty ...
The Best Indian History UA-camr. PERIOD. On a side note, I was wondering how you do you research and draw the clothing, jewelry, armor, architecture, furniture, and more to be accurate with the people of that time period you are representing? To depict the nuances accurately is very difficult, so how do you do it?
Only halfway through this video but I had to pause to come and pay my compliments to everyone working on this channel. Excellent excellent work! Thank you and Godspeed.
Karnataka empires have ruled most parts of India for 1000s of years, made several vassals and new empires of Karnataka descent and still don't get enough mention in Indian history books. Even rajputs who ruled like several villages have chapters 🙃
Tell me what you have read about rajputs , there is not a single rajput Dynasty covered in our history books except a few names of the kings who fought against invaders or just kacchawahs who served the Mughals. There are full chapters given on vijayanagar and chalukyas. You know about rajputs just because of mainstream media which tries to demean them otherwise you have never read about rajputs from books
He wins every battle.. He single handedly won every battle.He empowered women. He makes Hampi was the Best city in the World as per the inscription of Portuguese traveller Domingo Pius... The Greatest Emperor who ruled South India ever . KRISHNADEVARAYA
I am so grateful to have stumbled upon your Channell whenever I did. You are deserving all the much deserving success coming your way. Absolutely in awe of all the knowledge passed on to us. Almost to a point where I'm having to rewatch to capture details I've missed on the previous go. So many thanks and excited for what you will present next!
The video this awesome and amazing edit. Never learnt this history in schools love your video thanks for telling the true history Lot of effort taken for the research
Thank you for this video, i would personally like to appreciate your research work and my personal favorite - the animation. It was outstanding.i got to know a lot about the famous empire of our state and why my dad used to say that somehow KDR was related to my native tulunadu. Now i know why. I wish that our school teachers would show this video instead of simply making us sleep in class explaining the incomplete stuff in our textbooks.
Please make videos on these great KANNADA EMPIRES... 1. KADAMBAS 2. GANGAS 3. BADAMI CHALUKYAS 4. RASHTRAKUTAS 5. KALYANI CHALUKYAS 6. HOYSALAS 7. KARNATA SAMRAJYA (Vijaynagara empire) 8. WODEYERS OF MYSURU 9. NAYAKAS OF KELADI.
Excellent video. Love it. Also a request. Plz make a video on one among longest ruling emperors in Indian history, AMOGHA VARSHA. Rasthrakuta ruler. Very less is known in popular history. Plzz kindly consider my request
I would recommend you to do video on Immadi pulakeshi, the great chalukya king and he is most underrated, he deserves most recognition in history like great warriors of the world. Even today there are many people in Karnataka, India do worship him.
Again another great and informative video, well done with the presentation , ❤❤ i would be very happy if you could make such video's on the""" Tripura kingdom"" as well,
“Odd Compass” you are legend bro 🔥 Thanks for creating such informative video, also make video on other great kings of India like Chattrapati 'Shivāji', Bājirao, Great Chola kings, Chandragupta maurya etc.
For everyone who’s a longtime fan of Odd Compass, let’s try and give this video some more love- share it around, tell your friends about it. It’s got a criminally-low amount of views for how well-done it is. If we want others to be educated about South Indian history, we have to be proactive!
The main reason for karnataka empire demise is krishna devaraya.. the most powerful and prosperous king was devaraya(also ruled the vast empire than KDR's) of sangama dynasty due to his advancement of technology in military.. KDR came in and took the military technology down hill(his use of pickaxe in the seige of raichur).. the results was, the defeat in talikota(as KDR's successors followed his model of using primitive technology in warfare against deccan sultanate's much more modern weapons). other blunder was to replace kannada with telugu as official language.
I think there was something to KDR’s low caste status influencing his approach to being king/emperor. Because he was an outsider and had to always be a maverick he often engaged in bold, often foolhardy and reckless behavior like sneaking out and to see a prostitute and marrying her; making rash and impulsive decisions. Eventually, he cost his successors his kingdom because he killed the one man who was always in his corner and he alienated the Sultans to the North who eventually turned on him.
Bukka and Harihara were associated with Hoysala's court and when They escaped prison they met vidyaranya Saint and converted to Hinduism ❤ Krushnadevraya was a Tuluva king from Karnataka's tulunadu region...❤ In main Kannada was the prominent language of Vijayanagar Empire but as a multilingual person and due to influence of Telugu chieftains he patronized telugu... Tulunadigas & Kannadigas Empires have ruled across whole Southern India and Large parts of Northern India Empires like Alupas , Kadambas , Gangas , Rashtrakutas , Chalukyas , Hoysalas , Vijayanagara , wadeyers etc etc great dynasties...
One of the greatest king devaraya 2 of sangama dynasty from karnataka ( vijayanagara) empire, he was the most powerful emperor in india during his time. At great extent Empire from coastal maharashtra to srilanka & to kalinga & over lordhip in & received tributes from pegu in burma & tannesarium in Thailand.
Vijayanagar empire never ruled any part of Sri Lanka. Tamil Kingdom of Jaffna who ruled roughly Northern province of Sri Lanka was a vassal state of Vijayanagar empire from about 1374 CE to 1450 CE. Sinhalese king Parakramabahu VI of Kingdom of Kotte invaded Kingdom of Jaffna in 1450 CE. Kingdom of Kotte's conquest of Jaffna marked end of Vijayanagar's vassalization of Jaffna. Kingdom of Jaffna revived in 1467 CE because Kingdom of Kotte weakened due to war of succession. But Vijayanagar empire never recovered it's influence on Kingdom of Jaffna again. Parakramabahu VI's inscriptions in Jaffna and Munnesvaram proof his successful campaign against Kingdom of Jaffna which backed by Vijayanagar empire. Sinhalese king Parakramabahu VI also attacked some South Indian ports of Vijayanagar empire with help of Ming dynasty. Since I can't provide evidence about Parakramabahu VI's attack of ports of Vijayanagar empire this moment, I would leave it. But Myanmar and Thailand paying tributaries to Vijayanagar empire doesn't feel real. Myanmar and Thailand had powerful empires. They won't pay tributaries to a South Indian empire.
@@worlddata8982 during devaraya 2 of sangama dynasty vijayanagara empire, under the naval commander lakkanna dandesha invaded srilanka completely & extracted tributes large boots & made them to acknowledge the heir suzeranity, even many nayakas & commanders of vijayanagara empire were ruling srilanka, the portuguese itself has mentioned in their records it was a part of Karnataka empire & ruled by Karnataka kings, because the official name of the vijayanagara empire was Karnataka empire, Not the whole part of burma or Thailand , I mentioned only pegu & tannesariam were part of their control overlordship, it has been even mentioned by italian travelers. just like portuguese had goa & France had pondicherry & Mahe in india under their control,
One of the most underrated Kings of India, outside of Karnataka he is not celebrated enough but in terms of contribution Vijayanagaram empire as important as Marathas for medieval India and Kirshnadevaraya is as important as Chatrapathi Sivaji Maharaj.
@@kiran9220Both are great kings in their own times . Vijayanagara is what gave stability to the Maratha chieftains and they were inspired to make their own empire . Don’t compare two great kings , without Shivaji , today India would have been different.

And also he used to have 8 great scholars of Telugu called "Ashata diggajalu" in his court. He himself is a great scholar in Telugu.
@bhagyagopal2484 He was a Tulu. Not kannadiga. But he was a great admirer of Telugu. He himself was a great scholar in Telugu. Most importantly he was one the greatest rulers the world has ever seen. That's the reason why we admire him a lot. BTW his descendents became Telugu.
@bhagyagopal2484KDR was neither Kannadiga neither Teluguite...he was a Tuluva you numb nuts
@bhagyagopal2484 Exactly, he was Tulu and spoke kannada but loved Telugu and even said "Among all the languages of the country, Telugu is the greatest" so he is as Telugu as kannadiga if not more. Don't base your arguments on your feelings. Consider facts. We love him not for being Telugu but for being a great king.
@@vishnusudarsanam5375well he was even called kannada rajya rama rammanna why ? Because under him kannada literature was in peak many literary works were given patronage by him it's a fact belive or don't belive i dont give a f under him itself the nadu kannada works were presented in the court

Krishna DevaRaya is the pride of Karnataka, a great Kannadiga king with roots in Tulunadu , who patronised Kannada and Telugu . He is the greatest of the great Kannadiga kings and the Wodeyar royal dynasty was a dalavoy of Krishna Devaraya
Yes he is kannadiga king
But he is not the greatest kannada king, but one of the great in many, like pulikeshi, chalukya vinayaditya, Vikramaditya, kadamba mayura Varma, Ravi Varma, rashtrakutas govinda, Krishna, indra, amoghavarsha, kalyani chalukyas tailapa, someshwara Vikramaditya 6, hoysalas vishnuvardhana, Ballala, karnataka empires hakka bukka, devaraya 2, Krishna devaraya etc..
I learned many new things about vijayanagar Empire in the video. Loved the detailed perspective you have provided in every battle and each phase of KDR's rise. Loved how you referenced both Persian and Portugese historical accounts on some battles. Thanks.
Amazing video - always love learning more about Vijayanagara! I've been a fan of your channel since your first video about the Cholas and your story-telling and presentation ability have become so good - this is probably one of my favorite videos on UA-cam now. Can't believe the YT algorithm did not show me this video until now.
Keep it up, excited to your future videos! Not sure if you are taking suggestions, but would love to learn more about the Tripartite Struggle, especially the Gurjaras and Palas since you already made a video about the Rashtrakutas.
Thank you so much - not just for supporting the channel with a generous tip, but also for supporting the channel since the very beginning. It’s amazing how far this has all come. It’s honestly nostalgic for me to think back to that first video and all the excitement I had about stories still to tell. It really means a lot to me that you’re still following the channel and enjoying the content. Lots more (and varied) content to come! Also, I’ve definitely been contemplating a video on the Palas of Bengal, so that could be coming down the pipeline eventually :)
21:53 The same scene was in climax of Bahubali :The Beginning.. Who all remember

Yeah I remember
Freemasonry controller and British vessel loyal kings prince and slave owners and British Jews Zion loyal traders… others infiltrated many across all religion in india as they realised that they had to spoil religion of Indians and corrupt the girls here which they did they even planted the father of nation… kudos to the young males n needy people who accepted n signed their contracts and stay silent when the masonry controller British vessel kings n prince continue to trap models girls actresses

When discussing his dual nature, you did not mention a very contreversial matter, his language. Sri krishnadevaraya was a kannadiga but he loved telugu, he had 8 poets in his court, and one of them was tenali ramakrishna, who is still celebrated as one of the greatest poets in telugu. Even his masterpiece amuktamalyada was infact written in telugu. I hope you add this point if you do a future video.
Krishna devaraya is tulu not kannadiga bro
@@AY-jy4xf His father was a Tuluva and his mother was of Telugu origin but his most celebrated titles are in Kannada in comparison to Telugu. His inclination towards Telugu is well known but don't forget that Kannada was still the administrative language of the Karnataka Samrajya. Also, don't forget that Tuluvas are Kannadigas too. The word Kannada has both linguistic and geographic meanings and it totally depends on how one uses it.
@@gameruleworld.1889suluva not tuluva.
@@dr.renukrajmedegarpp7603 No SriKrishaDevaraya belongs to Tuluva dynasty.. Before him, Saluva Dynasty ruled the empire.
Actually Vijayanagara Empire was founded by Harihara and Bukka who were commanders in Telugu kingdom Kakatiya Empire. They belong to Yadava Sangama dynasty, Later the Vijayanagara Empire was ruled by Saluva dynasty who were Kannadigas.. Immediately after that, Tulu speaking Tuluva dynasty had taken over before Telugu speaking Aravidu dynasty ruled last. So, Vijayanagara Empire was built and prospered under Telugu, Kannada and Tulu speaking kings. Don't fight now.
@@phanirajsrinivasch8108this is also wrong history
Hakka and bukka were commanders of Kampili Kingdom. It was ruled by their own brother in law Kampili Raya and his son Kumara Rama
Kumara Rama defeated Tughlaq 's army many times being small Kingdom but how much they can survive later he was martyred in battlefield and his commanders (his uncles) hakka and bukka were prisoned in Delhi by Tughlaq but later they came back to South and formed Vijayanagar Empire.
Along with that they merged Hoysala Empire under their rule which was another kannada Empire
Vijaynagar is actually the capital City (now Hampi)
Original name of empire was Karnata Samrajya
You can check it in many inscriptions, foreign travellers books, coins, etc since Sangam Dynasty
Telugu Dynasty Aravidu was last to rule the and the main reason behind the downfall of the empire
Aliya Rama raya was betrayed by Two ghilani Muslim brothers in battle of Rakhas tangadi (battle of talikota) and was brutally assassinated on battlefield

What demolished the vijayanagar was sheer politics and shrewdness among the Bahmani Sultanates and Vijayanagar Kings. But, religion in the end was one of the deciding factors to determine the battle of Talaikota - Sultanets vs Vijaynagar
All this happened because of what Rama Raya did. On the way back from his campaign against Hussain Nizam Shah I, he let his soldiers loot, kill, rape, steal and burn everything on their way as they pleased while they were crossing the lands of Ali Adil Shah I despite the fact that he was an ally of Rama Raya. This caused the Deccan Sultanates to unite against him, the Gilani brothers to betray him and the capital city of Vijayanagara to be razed to the ground. All of this was simply retribution for what Rama Raya and his men did...
@@History_Teller1250 despite that also they would try to defeat him for their religious advantagges
@@abhishekbankar8908 BTW religion wasn't exactly the most important factor in there conflict.
Trade and political stability can be considered the ones that influenced almost all decisions of the Southern Kingdoms..

Edit: Btw, if anyone is interested in the story of the Vijayanagara Empire as a whole, the Fall of Civilizations channel has an excellent documentary on just that topic. :)
He won't do it because rastrakuta is a kannadiga empire.
@@nknkannadiga9742 So? How does that matter? Besides the Gurjaras won that war, not the Rashtrakutas.
@@ArawnOfAnnwn The Tripartite Struggle, also known as the Three-way Struggle for Control of Northern India, was a series of conflicts among the Pratihara Empire, the Rashtrakuta Empire, and the Pala Empire for control over Northern India during the 8th to 10th centuries CE.
In the end, none of the three empires emerged as the clear victor. The struggle resulted in significant territorial gains and losses for all three powers, and the political landscape of Northern India continued to shift in the centuries that followed. Eventually, other dynasties and kingdoms rose to prominence in different regions of India, marking the end of the Tripartite Struggle period.
@@nknkannadiga9742 I know what the Tripartite Struggle was, and there's a reason it's also known as the Kannuaj Triangle Wars - cos it was centered on the region of Kannauj. And ultimately the Pratiharas took control of Kannauj. In any case such differing interpretations and competing narratives are exactly why it would make for a great subject for a video!

Amazing animation, great storytelling and extensive research. Simply hats off!!
I’ve learned a lot about Indian that I didn’t know. I’m glad you’re telling us about more than the Indus Valley /Dravidian Civilization; its fall to the Aryan invaders; the Moguls (Mongols) who invaded in the Middle Ages spread Islam and founded Sikhism; and the eventual conquest by the British. I really find history of Southern India fascinating especially the Cholas.
India is really a (sub) continent because it was composed of many nations and kingdoms not all one nation a culture like its portrayed by Western media just like Africa is portrayed as one big country instead of as the 2nd largest continent with the most diverse population and cultures in the world.
KDR had made many mistakes which later became the cause of the empire to befall.
1. Bad design of forts for not inculcating the heavy artillery
2. Killing his own PM and father figure and his family, accepting his mistake later of doing so, all his lords saw this as greatly disheartening while Rama Raya sides seemed more and more appealing
3 . Act of kindness for letting the civilians leave in richur and later plundering the whole sultanate, his impulsiveness was seen as unjust and at the same time threatening for all the other sultanates of vijaynagar.
4. And later not reassuring them nor weakening rather he allowed them to strengthen themselves and when later Ram Raya also started playing one Sultan against other it backfired horribly and subsequent invasion marked the end of vijaynagar
he didn't build the forts they were just old ones he inherited which were built before the age of cannons
Kindly make a video on Immadi Pulikeshi
Whatta a narration and graphics 🔥👏👏
That's some serious work Odd Compass.
The story of Sri Krishna Deva Raya isn't taught much in schools. We only know the stories because of the movies and TV series made. That too in a vague way.
This video puts the perspective close to what has happened.
Appreciate your work ❤️

KDR and Vijaynagar empire is perhaps the most underrated emperor and empires in the world.
KDR was a Tuluva king (from the Tulu speaking community).
Vijaynagar empire was one of most prosperous kingdom at that time in the world...with the capital being the second biggest city in the world where traders from world over came.
The two greatest hindu hero's are Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj and Great Tuluva Krishnadeva Rai the magnificent. Unfortunately our text books don't give any respect to anyone south of the Deccan.
But the official court language of Vijayanagar empire was kannada
Sri krishna deva Raya RAI😂😂😂..
from where did u join rai....surname .
Who are the parents of Kdr😂.both were kannadigas ..
How come tuluva king never wrote in tulu language😂.
His wives were from karnataka.
He promoted kannada as court language. Promoted telugu tamil sanskrit..
Kannadigas are proud of tulu kodava language and love respect promot it as sister languages but we hate insecure tuluvas of mumbai😂.
Dont impose tulu in kundapura😂..see we need to live united life just like kannadigas and tuluvas of dakshina kannada district otherwise mallus.konkanis and maratis will claim our land ...
By the way telgu people used to claim entire vijaynagara empire.then came down to kDR...
Now it is only araveethi dynasty
...
@@ssv.d yes because most of the chieftain under Krishna Deva Raya that fought with Muslims are Telugu people ...

One of the greatest Vijayanagar Emperor.
Such was his greatness that even Emperor Babur called Krishna Deva Raya the Greatest of the Tulva Dynasty.
The Best Indian History UA-camr. PERIOD.
On a side note, I was wondering how you do you research and draw the clothing, jewelry, armor, architecture, furniture, and more to be accurate with the people of that time period you are representing? To depict the nuances accurately is very difficult, so how do you do it?
Only halfway through this video but I had to pause to come and pay my compliments to everyone working on this channel. Excellent excellent work! Thank you and Godspeed.

Karnataka empires have ruled most parts of India for 1000s of years, made several vassals and new empires of Karnataka descent and still don't get enough mention in Indian history books. Even rajputs who ruled like several villages have chapters 🙃

Yes, you are correct like chalukyas Rashtrakutas ruled & defeated mosto indian kings , their branches also ruled major parts of india.
Their descendants are Rathore, Solanki and Bundelas etc.
Tell me what you have read about rajputs , there is not a single rajput Dynasty covered in our history books except a few names of the kings who fought against invaders or just kacchawahs who served the Mughals. There are full chapters given on vijayanagar and chalukyas. You know about rajputs just because of mainstream media which tries to demean them otherwise you have never read about rajputs from books
Can you do a video on Kharavela and the Chedi dynasty, or a video on the Kalingan military

Thank you for this video, i would personally like to appreciate your research work and my personal favorite - the animation. It was outstanding.i got to know a lot about the famous empire of our state and why my dad used to say that somehow KDR was related to my native tulunadu. Now i know why.

“Odd Compass” you are legend bro 🔥 Thanks for creating such informative video, also make video on other great kings of India like Chattrapati 'Shivāji', Bājirao, Great Chola kings, Chandragupta maurya etc.
For everyone who’s a longtime fan of Odd Compass, let’s try and give this video some more love- share it around, tell your friends about it. It’s got a criminally-low amount of views for how well-done it is. If we want others to be educated about South Indian history, we have to be proactive!
The main reason for karnataka empire demise is krishna devaraya.. the most powerful and prosperous king was devaraya(also ruled the vast empire than KDR's) of sangama dynasty due to his advancement of technology in military.. KDR came in and took the military technology down hill(his use of pickaxe in the seige of raichur).. the results was, the defeat in talikota(as KDR's successors followed his model of using primitive technology in warfare against deccan sultanate's much more modern weapons). other blunder was to replace kannada with telugu as official language.
Agree with you 👍💯
I think there was something to KDR’s low caste status influencing his approach to being king/emperor. Because he was an outsider and had to always be a maverick he often engaged in bold, often foolhardy and reckless behavior like sneaking out and to see a prostitute and marrying her; making rash and impulsive decisions. Eventually, he cost his successors his kingdom because he killed the one man who was always in his corner and he alienated the Sultans to the North who eventually turned on him.
its actually called Karnata Empire , its capital was Vijayanagara as mentioned in Inscriptions
Great video of fascinating history that we never learn about in the West. Thanks.
Brilliantly done 👍
These wonderful videos deserve millions of views. I'm trying my best to make them popular by sharing them with others.

Their origin is also from Karnataka ❤
Idk why Indian creators can't make this kind of content.
Bukka and Harihara were associated with Hoysala's court and when They escaped prison they met vidyaranya Saint and converted to Hinduism ❤ Krushnadevraya was a Tuluva king from Karnataka's tulunadu region...❤ In main Kannada was the prominent language of Vijayanagar Empire but as a multilingual person and due to influence of Telugu chieftains he patronized telugu... Tulunadigas & Kannadigas Empires have ruled across whole Southern India and Large parts of Northern India Empires like Alupas , Kadambas , Gangas , Rashtrakutas , Chalukyas , Hoysalas , Vijayanagara , wadeyers etc etc great dynasties...
Also a correction, pretty confident it was tuglaq who gave them governship becuase khilji never annexed south india
Awesome video! What do you use to make these amazing animations?
Tuluva dynasty wasn't exactly low caste. They were Bunts from the Canara coast, who were the warrior/aristocratic caste of the area.
Actually it was Hoysala king who defended south from Delhi sultanate
And took hakka and bukka helped in laying foundation of vijayanagara
Great video can you make video on Maratha empire next
Marathas who are Commanders and Soldiers of Bahamanis , ended karnata samrajya that is vijayanagar. Its written in text Takt e Maratha.
One of the greatest king devaraya 2 of sangama dynasty from karnataka ( vijayanagara) empire, he was the most powerful emperor in india during his time. At great extent Empire from coastal maharashtra to srilanka & to kalinga & over lordhip in & received tributes from pegu in burma & tannesarium in Thailand.
Cap
Vijayanagar empire never ruled any part of Sri Lanka. Tamil Kingdom of Jaffna who ruled roughly Northern province of Sri Lanka was a vassal state of Vijayanagar empire from about 1374 CE to 1450 CE. Sinhalese king Parakramabahu VI of Kingdom of Kotte invaded Kingdom of Jaffna in 1450 CE. Kingdom of Kotte's conquest of Jaffna marked end of Vijayanagar's vassalization of Jaffna. Kingdom of Jaffna revived in 1467 CE because Kingdom of Kotte weakened due to war of succession. But Vijayanagar empire never recovered it's influence on Kingdom of Jaffna again. Parakramabahu VI's inscriptions in Jaffna and Munnesvaram proof his successful campaign against Kingdom of Jaffna which backed by Vijayanagar empire. Sinhalese king Parakramabahu VI also attacked some South Indian ports of Vijayanagar empire with help of Ming dynasty. Since I can't provide evidence about Parakramabahu VI's attack of ports of Vijayanagar empire this moment, I would leave it.
But Myanmar and Thailand paying tributaries to Vijayanagar empire doesn't feel real. Myanmar and Thailand had powerful empires. They won't pay tributaries to a South Indian empire.
@@worlddata8982 during devaraya 2 of sangama dynasty vijayanagara empire, under the naval commander lakkanna dandesha invaded srilanka completely & extracted tributes large boots & made them to acknowledge the heir suzeranity, even many nayakas & commanders of vijayanagara empire were ruling srilanka, the portuguese itself has mentioned in their records it was a part of Karnataka empire & ruled by Karnataka kings, because the official name of the vijayanagara empire was Karnataka empire,
Not the whole part of burma or Thailand , I mentioned only pegu & tannesariam were part of their control overlordship, it has been even mentioned by italian travelers. just like portuguese had goa & France had pondicherry & Mahe in india under their control,
