c5.s5.9

The Jaina *Bhagavatī Sūtra* (otherwise called *Vyākhyāprajñapti*) gives a slightly different list. They are as follows:—Aṅga, Baṅga (Vaṅga), Magaha (Magadha), Malaya, Mālava, Accha, Vaccha (Pali: Vamsa), Koccha, Pāḍha (?), Lāḍha (Rāḍha), Bajji (Pali: Vajji), Moli (Malla ?), Kāsī,¹⁰ Kosala, Avaha (Avāha ?) and Sambhuttara or Subhuttara (Sumhottara ?). The Jaina list seems to be later than the Buddhist list given in the *Aṅguttara Nikāya*.
