Answer
At the end of the 13th century, Alauddin Khalji’s invasions, the coffers of local rulers in South India were emptied to a great extent.
This was the time when Harihara and Bukka established the new kingdom of ‘Vijaynagar’ in 1336 C.E.
During the rule of King Krishnadevaraya, the kingdom expanded into an empire spreading from South Konkan in the west to Vishakhapatnam in the East and Krishna river in the north to Kanyakumari in the south.
Krishnadevaraya wrote a text entitled, ‘Amuktamalyada’ which is about the State and Policy.
