Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Samudragupta the Great, ruler of the Gupta Empire (c.AD 335 – 380), and successor to Chandragupta I, is considered to be one of the greatest military geniuses in Indian history. His name is taken to be a title acquired by his conquests (Samudra referring to the 'oceans'). Samudragupta the Great is believed to have been his father's chosen successor even though he had several older brothers. Therefore, some believe that after the death of Chandragupta I, there was a struggle for succession in which Samudragupta prevailed into. The main source of Samudragupta the Great's history is an inscription engraved on one of the rocks set up by him in Allahabad. In this inscription Samudragupta details his conquests. This inscription is also important because of the political geography of India that it indicates by naming the different king and peoples who populated India in the first half of the fourth century AD. The inscription to Samundraupta's martial exploits states that its author is Harishena, who was an important poet of Samudragupta's court.
