With the emergence of the Gupta Dynasty, at the start of the fourth century CE, we see that the region of Magadha again became important in the politics of Ancient India. The rise of the Guptas is well known and what role the Licchavis played in this rise is also well known. But the question of why the matrimonial alliance between the Licchavis and the Gupta took place is not discussed very often. In this video, I try to answer this question.
