Indian Economy - Understanding the basics of Indian economic system

The Tripartite Struggle for control of northern India took place in the ninth century. The struggle was between the

Pratihara Empire, the Pala Empire and the Rashtrakuta Empire

Mauryas, Guptas and Harshavardhana

Nandas, Sungas and Kanvas

Satvahanas, Chalukyas and Pala Empire

The Rastrakutas gained a lot of power by forming a matrimonial relationship with the Gangas and defeated the kingdom of Vengi.
By the end of the 9th Century the power of the Rastrakutas started to decline along with the Palas.
This was seen as an ideal opportunity by a feudal king Taila II who defeated the Rastrakuta ruler and declared his kingdom there.
This came to be known the Later Chalukya dynasty.
Their kingdom included the states of Karnataka, Konkan and northern Godavari.
By the end of the tripartite struggle, the Pratiharas emerged victorious and established themselves as the rulers of central India.
