By preferring Shivaji’s seal over the Chola motif of Tiger, India is sending a message to South East Asians. India should make sure that it doesn’t send out any wrong signals even if unintentional. The Chola symbol in Indian Navy can create a scope for China to peddle unfavourable narratives towards India. It’s good that India is acing the mindgames by not creating such an opportunity the symbol is choosen after long thought and discussion

Yes, of course.I stand corrected. I think my computer may have changed the spelling and I didn't notice. However, it has been over 50 years since then and my memory isn't to be trusted. Anyway, "the flute is sweet, the flute is sweet, but none surpasses the sounds of little children". And I can still recite this in Tamil...at least half of it. I taught Shakespeare at Jaffna College in Sri Lanka and soaked up the wonderful culture. My son was born at a rural hospital and my daughter went to school in Tamil.
Half Tamil half Sinhalese from Sri Lanka here. I learned of the great kings of both my heritage. My father taught me about Our Sinhalese kings and their 2000+ year historical acheivements and of the Chola, Chera and Pandyan kings as well You guys have done a great job with this video, well done. Hoping to watch more of your videos.
Wow it's well narrated by explaining clearly about South Indian Tamil King. Arul Mozhi Varman(Raja Raja Cholan) who started to expand Chola Dynasty, while his son Maduranthagan(Rajendra Cholan) who literally conquered ever place in Southeast Asia. Chola also brought their business and trading into various of country. I recommend everyone to read and learn about these great Kings. The history will make you goosebumps ❤️
No South.. Chola, Travancore, Kochi trade history(jews, Muslim, Roman ), Pandyan, Chera .. It is cruel SouthIndian students study only Northern 'Indian History and Languages..
4:43 And this the legendary emperor was known as "Kadaram Kondan" Remember that, he's also known as Vira Rajendra Chola. He single handedly defeated Chera and Pandiya in his time. I'm just 40kms next to the legendary Capital of the Chola's
Raja Raja chola is the 1st king in the world who built a ships dedicately for an army to conquer the other nation via oceans throughout the world, while other part of the world were built basic ships just for trading. And Raja Raja chola was knows as the Ocean master back those days. This information have a solid evidence till now. No one in the world can ignore it.
I love your narrative style. Just enough emphasis on words and great information. In this age of passion and emotion, this is so much better and easier on the ear to listen to. Well done guys
When I has a chance to visit Tami Nadu, I made a visit to this temple, but most unfortunately the caretakers prevented visitors from taking photographs. This must change. Taking photos is one way to promote both Tamil history and to promote tourism for the local economy.
Taking pics of monuments and temples are different. The groups who are in the caretaking of temples since many Dynasty don't like the temples to be photographed for various reasons known to them. Lets just heed them as it involves their sentiments who sacrificed their Dynasties for the temples.
@@pradeepmuniandi I cannot understand the "India's Indian mind". On one side they proudly show pictures of Mars landing and on the side cannot show temples and monuments "for various reasons". I remain to be enlightened. The world is proudly showing off their "wonders of the world", but the Indians are hiding them even from photography. Very perplexing.
Excellent presentation!!! Thank you so much. All the best for your future endeavors!!! 1:10 It's learned that Rajendra's victorious return from Ganga was scheduled on a new moon day and which was of his birth Star day. His homecoming was welcomed with lines and lines (ஆவளி) of lights(தீபம்) . Hence from then this new moon day was celebrated as 'lines of lights ' ,தீப ஆவளி --> தீபாவளி!!!
India, then and now and forever, is the jewel of the crown, the heart of the world and its culture, the heart beat of the World. Its History ancient as it gets.
Glad to hear the word "Chozha/Chola" being pronounced right.. We should teach all indians to pronounce it. It is not difficult. It is just like trying to pronounce any word with an "R" but with an amercian accent... Try saying "Round" with an American accent.. that is basically how you will say the "zh" in Chozha..
Wonderful glory of our ancestors, I am from bangalore, I have been to madurai long time ago, hope you do a story on hoysala kingdom too which is my native too, I would love to know more from you guys.
I've been fascinated by Southern India since childhood because the books and news story always leaned to the North and Northwest. My named Saint is St. Thomas, he rejoined our Lord from Southern India! ☺️😊
Very interesting information... flowing narration...thank you for this video. We didn't learn much of Southern history in our school days. So it's really good to know about this.
Extremely Well Done!! May I suggest videos about the Mauryan Empire, Pataliputra, the Kannauj Triangle, Mughal Agra, Vijayanagara Empire, the Maratha Navy and Solanki era Anahilapataka (Patan in Gujarat).
Hey don’t be so naive , they have not told about Cholas, even in Tamil Nadu it’s not told properly. Do you know about north India empire who guarded India for centuries against multiple invasions.
Excellent narration . I am a fan of yours now...I wish if my history classes back in school were as good as your TH-cam channel I would've never gone for maths-science..
I just stumbled upon your channel and am delighted and impressed by its content and presentation. Very professiinal. Thank you and looking fwd to many more vids from you.
No it is not the case. Cholas are heavily mentioned in NCERTs for their sangam period and for the trade relations they had with rome,south east asia , china and conquest they made in south east asia.
Nicely made story video. We don't know much about ancient history of India. So good to see such videos. On another note I really liked the woman's voice
Please make video on rajaranarendra and his son kulutonga chola -1( birth name Rajendra Chalukya) how eastren chalukya prince from Rajamhendravaram ( Andhra Pradesh) became chola emperor after death Rajendra chola son ( who is short lived ) and about fascinating marriage exchanges between cholas and eastren chalukyas
What is often over looked but something that was exceedingly visionary was Rajaraja I decision to give Rajendra I viceroy position of the new Chola-Pandya region at madurai and then appointing him as the co ruler(1012-14) before his expedition to Chalukya. This transformative method of picking the heir apparent early and giving them as much responsibility & training made themselves ready for the big role. This allowed Rajendra(He then returned this favour to his son by appointing him as yuvaraja in 1018ce.) to not waste his time fighting other heir apparents or on deciding what to do next. He was ready to go. Sadly this tradition was loosened later.
brilliant presentation, thanks, by the way, I have no idea about Chola's total occupation of Sri Lanka. we have not taught that in the history of Sri Lanka, what is the evidence please?

I really appreciate you guys for all these wonderful contents. South Indian Tamil Kings really were wonderful.
He's not a "king" he's an Emperor. He's called the RAJA RAJA Cholan for a reason.

A wonderful down to earth true and honest account of the Chola Empire.
4:43
And this the legendary emperor was known as "Kadaram Kondan"
Remember that, he's also known as Vira Rajendra Chola. He single handedly defeated Chera and Pandiya in his time.
I'm just 40kms next to the legendary Capital of the Chola's
Brillant. There's not much about the Pandya Kings. Request a few episodes in these great kings also
Rajendra Chozar - The One who brought ganga to Sentamizh nadu - Proudly referred as Gangaikodan !!!
What a brilliant way to say a story !
Raja Raja chola is the 1st king in the world who built a ships dedicately for an army to conquer the other nation via oceans throughout the world, while other part of the world were built basic ships just for trading. And Raja Raja chola was knows as the Ocean master back those days. This information have a solid evidence till now. No one in the world can ignore it.
Stop it right there. Even before Cholas, Romans, Greeks and Vikings had war going ships. Even Persians had navy

Irony is, students in Southeast Asia learn more about Raja Raja Cholan and the Chola empire than Indians in the subcontinent.
