The author discusses the rise of Jainism and Buddhism, Magadha and the beginning of territorial states. The period of Mauryas, Central Asian countries, Satvahanas, Guptas, and Harshavardhana are also analysed. He highlights important phenomena such as the varna system, urbanisation, commerce and trade, developments in science and philosophy, and cultural legacy.
