Buddhism is a religion that was founded by Siddhartha Gautama (“The Buddha”) more than 2,500 years ago in India. The religion’s founder, Buddha, is considered an extraordinary man, but not a god. The word Buddha means “enlightened.” Buddha’s most important teachings, known as The Four Noble Truths, are essential to understanding the religion.

The rivalry between the Pallavas and Chalukyas originated because they sought to control the same area, the eastern part of peninsular India consisting of present day Andhra Pradesh and Northern Tamil Nadu. Since they were neighbouring kingdoms in a rich and fertile region, it was natural that they were fierce rivals. Both kingdoms coveted the territory of the other.
The rivalry started with the attack on the Pallavas by Pulakesi II, the greatest Chalukya ruler, in 620 AD. He was attracted by the prospertity of the Pallava kingdom, particularly it capital, Kanchi. He defeated the Pallavas. This was then followed by an attack by the Pallavas on the Chalukyas in 642 by Narasimhavarman, who completely destroyed the Chalukyan capital of Vatapi.
This cycle of attacks and revenge attacks continued throughout the seventh and eighth centuries.

The protection of an Empire required huge and strong army. Thus, special attention was paid to maintain a huge and efficient army.
- Infantry, cavalry and elephants were the main divisions of the army.
- Besides, there were military leaders known as samantas, who provided troops to the king whenever required.
- Samantas were not paid regular salaries. Instead, some of them received grants of land. They collected revenue from the land and used this to maintain soldiers, horses and provide equipment for warfare.

Winds that give maximum rainfall to India are south west monsoon. These winds bring rains towards the end of the summer due to high pressure built in the Indian Ocean. This monsoon strikes Malabar Coast in the month of June and by November leaves the country. The monsoon winds bring rainfall in India. It is important because agriculture in India is dependent on rains. The grasses, shrubs and trees, which grow on their own without interference or help from human beings are called natural vegetation.
