India history and geography
Source: Ancient Buddhist Texts: Geography of Early BuddhismBhojakaṭapura (भोजकटपुर) or Bhojapura was an ancient capital city of Vidarbha (modern Berar).—The expression Daṇḍakyabhoja in the Brāhmaṇas may indicate that the Bhojakaṭa was either included within or within the reach of Daṇḍaka. It is clear from the Mahābhārata list that Bhojakaṭa (identical with Elichpur) was distinct from Bhojakaṭapura or Bhojapura, the second capital of Vidarbha (modern Berar). In the Khila Harivaṃsa (cf. Viṣṇu Purāṇa) Bhojakaṭa is expressly identified with Vidarbha.
The history of India traces the identification of countries, villages, towns and other regions of India, as well as mythology, zoology, royal dynasties, rulers, tribes, local festivities and traditions and regional languages. Ancient India enjoyed religious freedom and encourages the path of Dharma, a concept common to Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism.
