Video Description
In the history of Ancient India, Chanakya -- also known as Kautilya -- stands tall among his peers. He not only orchestrated the rise of the Mauryan Empire (the largest native empire in Indian history), but he also created a system of statecraft that continued to influence South and Southeast Asia for thousands of years. This is his story. -- Sources (non-exhaustive): "Ashoka and the Maurya Dynasty," by Colleen Taylor Sen "Chanakya," by MH Syed "Chanakya Today," by Dipavali Sen "The Indian Machiavelli," by Maria Misra "Kautilya's Relevance for India Today," by Michael Liebig "Understanding Kautilya's Arthashastra," by Pradeep Kumar Gautam "Political Morality vs. Political Necessity: Kautilya," by Narasingha Prosad Sil — Music “Eastern Eyes,” by Ian Kelosky ID: WVJEGI1PK3B5RI1W XFR3TBST0CHR5AEW
