Die Welt, wie sie den alten Indianern bekannt war

Why tf are they talking about taking Afghanistan and even the Arabic peninsula so?

Me, a Yavana native.

Jambudwipa was initially not used in a geographical sense and **Bharatvarsh** was used for Indian Subcontinent and bharatvarsh + paarsik + cheen + Swarnabhumi + Arabian peninsuala (had a name I think) is a part of jambudwipa basically Asia without Russia, but if we look at the origin of the word in even more ancient text it was used to refer to our human realm kinda like ancients greeks and ancient egyptians also had similar concepts and even bible when they talk god created heavens and earth

anyway these are mostly parts who were in constant contact with India, South East Asia was already pretty close and were under Indian kingdoms for many years, India and Persia had very very good relations and to this date, India did decent amount of trade with Romans and Greeks, and the trade with whole africa or african kingdoms was either what came through persia or came directly from ports of Somalia to India, china pretty obvious

what year is it?
