Capítulo 160: Dakshin Bharata Varsam Part: 3 (Data dump alert)

Day 1 Dhwaja Aradhana

Vijay was happy after learning that his decision to establish a new empire was highly supported by the common people in the Vijayanagar Empire, including the people of the new territories. As for the elite, they were skeptical of the change, but they did not oppose it as firmly as Vijay guessed.

Because of this, Vijay was confused. Weren't they afraid that the establishment of a Bharat Empire would consolidate the people in the empire, leaving next to no ground for rebellion in the name of cultural freedom? When he fell into deep thought, he suddenly figured it out. The concept of soft power was still very foreign to everyone. Maybe the ancients realized the power of soft power, as it spread India's cultural civilization to the whole of Asia.

But the descendants, with the arrival of troubled times, had no time to think about the civilizational heritage of this land. Vijay felt like he got lucky and went on with the first day's events.
