Bab 188: Upgrading the village

Purana Qila , Delhi, 8th April 1557.

The next day in Delhi marked a significant date in the history of the Indian subcontinent. It was the day when two prominent empires of India, from the north and the south, made a historic alliance. Princess Meenakshi, after the end of the one-month visitation condition on terms of the trust agreement, finally signed and sealed the deal for a peace alliance between the Vijayanagar Empire and the Bhargav Samrajya.

Under this alliance, both the Vijayanagar Empire and the Bhargav Samrajya would share ambassadors on a permanent basis and engage in various diplomatic affairs.

As royalty, Meenakshi appointed herself as the first official ambassador to the Samrajya to set up the initial groundwork for a month; however, the ambassador to Vijayanagar was yet to be decided.
