The Gurjara-Pratihara dynasty was an
imperial power
during the
Late Classical period
on the
Indian subcontinent
, that ruled much of
Northern India
from the mid-8th to the 11th century. They ruled first at
Ujjain
and later at
Kannauj
.The Gurjara-Pratiharas were instrumental in containing Arab armies moving east of the
Indus River
.
Nagabhata I
defeated the Arab army under Junaid and Tamin during the
Caliphate campaigns in India
. Under
Nagabhata II
, the Gurjara-Pratiharas became the most powerful dynasty in northern India. He was succeeded by his son
Ramabhadra
, who ruled briefly before being succeeded by his son,
Mihira Bhoja
. Under Bhoja and his successor
Mahendrapala I
, the Pratihara Empire reached its peak of prosperity and power. By the time of Mahendrapala, the extent of its territory rivalled that of the
Gupta Empire
stretching from the border of
Sindh
in the west to
Bengal
in the east and from the
Himalayas
in the north to areas past the
Narmada
in the south.The expansion triggered a
tripartite power struggle
with the
Rashtrakuta
and
Pala
empires for control of the
Indian Subcontinent
. During this period, Imperial Pratihara took the title of
Maharajadhiraja
of
Āryāvarta
(
Great King of Kings of India
).
