Satavahanas
The Satavahanas emerged as the rulers in central and south India after the Maurya rule. They ruled during first century BCE. Pratishthana (presently Paithan located in Maharastra) was the capital of the Satavahanas Kings like Gautamiputra Satakarni, Vasishthiputra extended the power of the kingdom
The Satavahana rulers donated land to Buddhist monks and Brahmanas, so as to enlarge the area of agricultural land. Gradually the administrative power of these places was given to them. This weakened the power of the kings.
During that period, India had trade relations with the Roman Empire evident from Roman gold coins found in India.
