Mahajanapadas: states & rivalries Quiz

About this quiz

What you’ll explore

This quiz focuses on the Mahajanapadas period: major kingdoms and republics, their capitals, regions, and the rivalries that reshaped power in Ancient India.

Each question uses 4 options and there’s no timer, so you can think through geography and chronology instead of rushing.

Skills you’ll practice

You’ll strengthen recall of capitals and locations while also practicing cause-and-effect links between expansion, alliances, and conflicts.

A common pitfall is mixing up similarly named regions and capitals (or placing a state in the wrong modern area), so watch for map cues and context clues.

Difficulty and settings

Difficulty is mixed by design: straightforward ID questions are balanced with deeper items on political structures and inter-state competition.

You can choose your question count and difficulty before starting—go shorter for quick revision or longer to build endurance across all 143 questions.
