South and Southeast Asian Kingdoms and Principalities

Historical kingdoms of South and Southeast Asia, spanning the Indian kingdoms of Mysore and Jhansi State, the medieval and ancient Indian dynasties of Ahom, the Kakatiyas, Reddi, Chutiya, the Pandyas and the Pallavas, the Hellenistic Greco-Bactrian and Indo-Greek kingdoms of Central Asia and the northwestern subcontinent, Sri Lanka's Kingdom of Polonnaruwa, and the mainland Southeast Asian kingdoms of Champa, Ayutthaya, Sukhothai, Lan Xang, Lan Na, Funan and Pagan. A kingdom is placed here by its own territory sitting in South or Southeast Asia, joining the two regions together because, unlike Africa and Europe, this atlas's Kingdoms and Principalities subcategory does not have enough members in either region alone to need a separate group.
