Did u know that from the 6th century Bce onwards, The outlines of political history of north india becomes clear & kings & religious teachers mentioned in different textual traditions can be identified as historical figures. Aa Buddhist and jain texts Anguttara nikaya & Bhagavati sutra list 16 powerful states (Solasa- mahajanapada) that flourished in the 6th century bce. Of these 16 states, 10 were located in the ganga valley & 6 were located outside the ganga valley.
The sanskrit text Mahavastu provides the same list with little variations, As it mentioned shibi instead of Gandhara & Dasharna instead of kamboja.
It would be relevant to mention that kalinga has been added to the list of 16 mahajanapadas in Chulla Niddesa & yona in place of Gandhara.
The same Panani's Sanskrit Grammarian text Ashtadhyayi contains names of 40 janapadas, 22 are whom specially mentioned. While the Tamil text Silappadikaram mentions three important mahajanapadas namely Magadha, Vasta and Avanti, It was the same Magadha which later overthrow all the states & became supreme head of North India in the form of Magadha Empire from whom kings like ,Brihadratha, Bimbisara & Ajatshatru are prominent.
