Magadha

a historical region and state in ancient India, on part of the territory of modern south Bihar. The rise of Magadha began in the seventh century B.C. In the sixth and fifth centuries B.C., during the reign of Bimbisara and Ajatasatru, Magadha became much stronger as a result of successful wars with its neighbors. Magadha was the nucleus of important Indian empires: those of the Nanda (fourth century B.C.), Maurya (fourth to second centuries B.C.), and Gupta dynasties (fourth to sixth centuries A.D.). Magadha was a major economic and cultural center of ancient India and the cradle of early Buddhism and Jainism. By the tenth century the designation “Magadha” went out of use.
