Harihara Bukkaraya
The Vijayanagara Empire ( Also Called Karnataka Empire,[1]and The Kingdom of Bisnegar by the Portuguese ) was based in the Deccan Plateau region in South India. It was established in 1336 by the Brothers Harihar | and Bukkaraya | of Sangama Dynasty,[2][3][4] It belongs to the Valmiki Community, that Nayaka Lineage.[5][6][7] The Empire rose to prominence as a culmination of attempts by the southern powers to ward off Islamic invasion by the end of the 13th Century. It lasted until 1646, although its power declined after a major military defeat in the Battle of Talikota in 1565 by the combined armies of the Deccan Sultanates. The empire is named after its capital city of Vijayanagara, whose ruins surround present day Hampi, now a World Heritage Site in Karnataka, India. [8] The writing of medieval European travelers such as Domingo Paes, Fernao Nunes, and Niccolo Da Conti, and the literature in local languages provide crucial information about its history. Archaeological excavations at Vijayanagara have revealed the empire’s power and wealth.
