Ancient Bharat (India) was home to some of the greatest empires that significantly influenced its culture, spirituality, and governance. The Maurya Empire (321–185 BCE), under Chandragupta Maurya and Ashoka, unified large parts of India and spread the teachings of Dharma, influencing governance with ethical principles. The Gupta Empire (circa 320–550 CE) is often called the "Golden Age" of India, marked by advancements in science, mathematics, art, and literature, along with the promotion of Hindu philosophy.
The Chola Dynasty (9th–13th century CE), renowned for maritime dominance, temple architecture, and cultural patronage, played a pivotal role in spreading Hinduism to Southeast Asia. The Vijayanagara Empire (1336–1646 CE) safeguarded Hindu culture in South India against external invasions, fostering architectural and artistic brilliance. These empires, through their valor, intellect and spiritual contributions, laid the foundation for India's enduring heritage of Sanatan Dharma.
