The King Harsh Vardhan 


The downfall of the Gupta Empire in the middle of the 6th century brought about the breakup of the northern Indian Kingdom into many small republics or monarchy states.

Prabhakar Verdun ruler of Spannabis vara Vanessa in present-day Harayana was the first ruler of Varginha dynasty. He had two sons the eldest son Raja Burton who ascended to the throne after his father and his younger son HarshVardhan.

Raja Burton was deceived and murdered by king Gordon, at which point the young 16 years old Harsha swore to take the revenge.


Harsha waged war against King Gorden and won the battle. Harsha has consequently crowned the new ruler. He first united the kingdoms of Thanisir and Kannuaj and went on to bring Bihar, Bengal and Odhisa under his command. 


Harsha then moved towards the south and Narmada became the southern limit of Harsha's Empire.


Harshvardhana also an author of repute having penned Sanskrit plays like nag Nanda, Ratnavali, and Priyedarsicka. He also initiated a systematic tax structure in place.





1/4 of the taxes went towards the administrator of his empire, rest was given away to charity, and further the arts and cultural endeavours in his kingdom.
