The historian V. A. Smith has called Samudragupta the ‘Napoleon’ of India because of his policy of war and conquest. He started with the conquest of his immediate neighbours and then by campaigns to the east and the south.
Rajadhiraja was a great warrior. He always led from the front standing shoulder to shoulder with his men on front lines and earned the title of Jayamkonda Chola which means the victorious Chola King.
