  • Later Cholas and Pandyas
    General Studies Prepared By www.winmeen.com 7th Social Science Lesson 1 Notes in English 1. Emergence of New Kingdoms in South India: Later Cholas and Pandyas 1. What makes Cholas more Important? The Cholas are one among the popular and well-known Tamil monarchs in the history of South India. The elaborate state structure, the extensive irrigation network, the vast number of temples they built, their great contributions to art and architecture and their overseas exploits have given them a pre-eminent position in history. 2. Revival of the Chola Rule: The ancient Chola kingdom reigned supreme with the Kaveri delta forming the core area of its rule and with Uraiyur (present day Tiruchirappalli) as its capital. It rose to prominence during the reign of Karikala but gradually declined under his successors. 3. Who revived the Chola Rule? In the 9th century Vijayalaya, ruling over a small territory lying north of the Kaveri, revived the Chola Dynasty. He conquered Thanjavur and made it his capital. 4. Who Built the New Capital? Later Rajendra I and his successors ruled the empire from Gangaikonda Cholapuram, the newly built capital. 5. Who was the Most Powerful Ruler in this Empire? Rajaraja I (A.D. (CE) 985 - 1016) was the most powerful ruler of Chola empire and also grew popular beyond his times. 6. What are the Importance of Rajaraja I? Rajaraja I established Chola authority over large parts of South India. His much-acclaimed naval expeditions led to the expansion of Cholas into the West Coast and Sri Lanka.
