“Not too ambitious, surely, of conquest were the ancients, seeing that in a small part of the earth there were numerous monarchs, such as Bhagadatta, Dantavakra, Krātha, Karṇa, Kaurava, Śiśupāla, Śālva, Jārasandha, and Sindhurāja. King Yudhiṣṭhira was easily content, since he endured quite near at hand the Kingdom of the Kimpurushas, when the conquests of Dhananjaya had made the earth to shake.” ¹
