The Kings and other common Kṣatriyas were variously sub-divided in the world. Quite a profusion of Kṣatriyas were born in the Aila dynasty, but there were not so many in the Ikṣwâku dynasty. Their number is full one hundred. Similarly, by the spread of the Bhoj dynasty that number was doubled.—69-70
