Vijayanagara Empire
Vijayanagara Empire appears on the map from 1344 to 1571. At its greatest recorded extent, in 1450, it covered about 567,573 km².
Vijayanagara was founded in 1336 by the brothers Harihara and Bukka of the Sangama dynasty, in the wake of the Delhi Sultanate's raids into southern India. From their capital on the Tungabhadra river they united the Hindu kingdoms of the south, and for two centuries fought the Bahmani sultanate and its successors for the fertile Raichur Doab. Under Krishnadevaraya the empire covered almost all of India south of the Krishna river. More about Vijayanagara Empire.
