In 993, the Chola emperor Rajaraja I launched a campaign that would end Anuradhapura's thousand-year run as Sri Lanka's capital. This episode traces the invasion, the sacking of the city, and the Chola consolidation under Rajendra I, who moved the capital to Polonnaruwa. We explore the military strategies, the shifting alliances with the Pandya and Chera kingdoms, and the cultural impact—how Chola rule reshaped temple architecture, irrigation, and administration. We also consider the legacy of the Chola occupation in Sri Lankan memory, from the Mahavamsa's account to modern archaeological findings. It's a story of conquest, adaptation, and the resilience of a civilization that would rise again under Vijayabahu I. #CholaDynasty #RajarajaI #Anuradhapura #Polonnaruwa #SriLankaHistory #SouthIndianHistory #MedievalTamilNadu #Mahavamsa #VijayabahuI #TempleArchitecture #Irrigation #CholaInvasion #TamilHistory #AncientSriLanka #SinhalaHistory #History #FexingoHistory #AsianHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
