Introduction

India, having a vast history ranging from ancient times to the modern time, have witnessed
reigns of various dynasties from time to time and from one to another region. One of such
empires of the Southern India were of the cholas which was also called cholamandalam or
Coromandel, which emerged in the early medieval or later ancient period of Indian history.The
Chola Dynasty, a Tamil dynasty, ruled primarily in southern India until the thirteenth century.
The dynasty originated in the fertile valley of the Kaveri River. It laid north and south between
the two rivers, pennar and vellaru. The Chola territories stretched from the islands of the
Maldives in the South to as far North as the banks of the Godavari River in Andhra Pradesh.
Karikala Chola stands as the most famous among the early Chola kings, while Rajaraja Chola,
Rajendra Chola and Kulothunga Chola I ruled as notable emperors of the medieval Cholas .The
Cholas had three major administrative divisions called Central Government, Provincial
Government and Local Government. The efficient Chola administrative system has been well
