History
The history of Tamil Nadu is considered very ancient. It has been going on since prehistoric times. South India is believed to have been ruled by the Chola, Chera and Pandya kings for many years. Of which the Pallavas ruled in the first half of the fourth century. The Pallavas have built the famous Madir architecture of the Dravidian style. Similarly, the Cholas built the Bhuvan Temple. In which the “Brihadeeswarar Temple” of Thanjavur is an example of this. The Chola dynasty was in power from the first century to the fourth century. In which the most prominent was “Karikal Chola”. Who extended their empire to Kanchipuram. The Cholas established their empire as far as present-day Thanjavur and Tiruchirapalli. By the end of the third century the Chola dynasty had begun to decline due to the invasion of the “Kalabhras”. By the end of the eleventh century, Tamil Nadu was ruled by many more kingdoms like Pandya, Chola and Chalukya. After this, the Chola Empire ruled Tamil Nadu for 200 years.
In 1611 the East India Company established its factory at Machilipatnam (Andhra Pradesh) and gradually fought the local rulers and subjugated their territories. The British first established their settlement in Tamil Nadu, known as the “Madras Presidency” in 1901, which included parts of the South Atonement. After independence, the Madras Presidency was divided into several parts. As a result, Madras and many other provinces emerged. Madras Province was renamed Tamil Nadu in 1968. The Tamil Nadu word is derived from the Tamil language Tamil meaning “Desh” and Nadu ie “Vasasthan” which means “home of Tamils” or “country of Tamils”.
