Answer
The largest temples were constructed by the kings. In the temple made by Rajarajadeva worship of one god Rajarajeshvaram honoured another- Rajarajadeva.
The other lesser deities were the gods and goddesses of the allies and subordinate of the ruler. The temples were the miniature model of the world ruled by the king and his allies. As they worshipped the deities together in the temple, it seemed as if just rule of the gods is brought on earth.
