India history and geography
Source: What is India: Inscriptions of the ŚilāhārasSaṃyāna (संयान) is mentioned as a country conquered by Aparājita, mentioned in the “Janjirā plates (set I) of Aparājita”. Saṃyāna is modern Sanjān in the north of the Thāṇā District. It was preciously under the rule of an Arab feudatory of the Rāṣṭrakūṭas.
Saṃyāna is also mentioned in the “Ciñcaṇī plate of the reign of Cittarāja”. Saṃyāna is modern Sanjān in the Umbargaon tāluka of the Ṭhāṇā District.
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.

[Sanskrit to German]
Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
