Hindu Emperor the Vikramaditya and its huge multi-continental Empire (77 BCE–15 CE)

 Firstly, there have been several historical figures known as Vikramaditya, with varying degrees of verifiability and historicity. The most famous among them is probably King Vikramaditya of Ujjain, a legendary figure in Hindu history and folklore.

According to legend, King Vikramaditya was a wise and just ruler who ruled over a vast empire that extended from the Himalayas in the north to the Kaveri River in the south. He was said to have been a patron of learning and the arts, and his court was renowned for its scholars, poets, and artists.

King Vikramaditya made Ujjain his capital, in present-day Madhya Pradesh. He almost ruled the whole of Asia. The Vikramaditya empire controlled many parts of modern-day China, the entire Middle East, and many parts of Southeast Asia.

NOTE: This king was not from the Gupta Empire or Chalukya dynasty because 14 kings in India named him Vikramaditya after seeing his power and achievements. Vikramaditya (77 BCE–15 CE) was the first Chakravarti emperor of India; the empire spread to Arabia, Europe, and Rome. 

The great king Vikramaditya, whose name is counted among the best kings of India. Continues the year-counting system of India, which we call Vikrami Samvat. In fact, Vikramaditya was given the title of Chakravarti Emperor by the kings in India.

Vikramaditya’s empire stretched from present-day India to Africa and Rome. Vikramaditya was the first king to hoist victory over the entire Arab world of the present day. King Vikramaditya comes from the few great kings of this era who became the emperors of the Chakravarti after performing the Ashwamedha Yagya.

Chakravarti Samrat means a king who rules in all four directions and is not going to challenge him. Not only did Emperor Vikramaditya trample on the Arabs and Europe, but he also defeated Rome’s King Julius Caesar in battle. 

King Vikramaditya made Ujjain his capital. At the age of 20, King Vikramaditya had repulsed the forces not only from the borders of India but also from all over Asia. It may be known that at that time, India’s borders extended to present-day Arab Europe and East Asia.

After liberating India and Asia, Vikramaditya did not sit on the throne himself but made his elder brother Bhrithari king, but the deception of his wife made the brother-in-law a monk, and after that, the sons of Bhirthari also refused to sit on the throne. Then King Vikramaditya had to sit on the throne. Raja Vikram’s coronation took place on the day of Holy Diwali. He conquered Shakas and founded the world’s first calendar, Vikram Samvat.

However, it is important to note that the existence of a historical King Vikramaditya who ruled over such a vast empire is a matter of debate among historians. 

 The legends describe Vikramaditya's empire as one of great prosperity and wealth, where trade and commerce flourished and the arts and sciences were highly valued. The king himself was said to be a patron of learning and the arts, and his court was home to many scholars, poets, and artists.

Some stories also mention that Vikramaditya's empire included parts of modern-day Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Iran and that his military campaigns extended as far as Central Asia. However, it is important to note that the historical accuracy of these claims is debated among scholars.

Overall, the stories of King Vikramaditya's empire are fascinating and have captured the imagination of people for centuries when it comes to his reign and the extent of his empire. However, it is to be taken into account that the great ruler, Vikramaditya, is mentioned in various early Indian texts in the form of stories. One, namely Vikram and Beetal, the Indian epics, and also mentioned in Akbar and Birbal.

Conclusion:

If you believe in Indian ancient history and epics like the Mahabharata and Ramayana, it's true, according to the existence of the above events.

However, contemporary evidence of the Vikramaditya empire is found in the Indian Subcontinent's texts, scriptures, beliefs, and pictorial evidence. Thus, it might have been the world's largest empire at that time. Especially the concept of the Vikramaditya empire ruling 3/4 of the world.
