Hello Folks, I came across a statement in wikipedia. Only four kings in Indian History have not lost a war at all. They are, Chandra Gupta Maurya, Ashoka, Raja Raja Cholan and Rajendra Cholan. Expert Opinions please. Thank you,
Thats a good piece of information. One is a grand father - grand son duo and another is a father son duo... Genetics does play a major part in acheivements :)
Please add Emperor Narasimha Pallavar I (Great Mamalla Narasimhar) also in this elite group of Kings who have not defeated in the battle and also Pandiyan Nedunchezhian, Cheran Sengottuvan.
Mauryas - Emperor Chandragupta Maurya , Emperor Ashoka Pallavas- Emperor Narasimha Pallava Chozha - Emperor Raja Raja Choza and Emperor Rajendra Choza Pandiya- Pandiyan Neduchezian Chera- Cheran Senguttuvan
Could you please anyone validate above and let us know in case of any corrections or clarifications.
We hear of MATHIRAIYUM EEZHAMUM KONDA PARAKESARI - Parantaka I. We hear of MATHIRAIYM EEZHAMUM KONDA RAJAKESARI - Sundara We hear of Rajaraja of his Overseas Conquests. And of Course RAJENDRA - the Greatest - who set his foot on War in the Overseas too - as recognised by Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru . And I recall of having read of NARASIMHA PALLAVA sent a Fleet to Lanka in the early 7th Century. Any other Emperor/s - we discussed so far with such distinction ? Because to lock horn with an Enemy out side India means familising with such enemy's linguistic, cultural details and war-tricks too ! sps =========
Yes, I have missed Karikal Chozhan from the elite group sorry.
Regarding Emperor Harshavardhanar. There are 2 theories are as per below - need more clarification on these 2 theories. * Harsha was defeated by Pulikesi II * Pulikesi had a ceasefire between Harsha as there were no final victory for both of them and Emperor Harsha had agreed for that Ceasefire. Mauryas - Emperor Chandragupta Maurya , Emperor Ashoka Pallavas- Emperor Narasimha Pallava Chozha - Karikala Chozan, Emperor Raja Raja Choza and Emperor Rajendra Choza Pandiya- Pandiyan Neduchezian Chera- Cheran Senguttuvan
