POST GUPTA ERA | HISTORY | PARMAR SSC

Deskripsi

The “Post-Gupta Era” chapter by Parmar Sir examines the period after the decline of the Gupta Empire (6th century CE), marked by political fragmentation and regional powers. It covers the rise of kingdoms like the Vakatakas, Maitrakas, Pushyabhutis, and Maukharis in the north, as well as Pallavas and Chalukyas in the south. The chapter highlights the role of Harshavardhana in temporarily reuniting northern India, the spread of Buddhism, and developments in art and architecture. It also notes the weakening of trade networks, increased regional conflicts, and cultural diversification. This era is portrayed as a transitional phase leading to early medieval Indian history.
