Historians feel that the Vijayanagara state was highly militarized. In what way do you think it would have affected the common people? |
|
Answer» Since the kingdom of Vijayanagara was a highly militarized one, it was free from inva¬sions. Thus there was peace and security in the Vijayanagara kingdom. But they spent a lot of money on acquiring guns and cannons, and for purchasing horses. They employed Muslims and the Portuguese to get their soldiers trained in the modern war¬fare. They must have levied heavy taxes on the common people to pay for the military expenditure. Thus the common people must have affected by the heavy taxation. |
