traced back to the mentions found in
ancient texts like
the Mahabharata, Maha Govinda
Sutta and some Puranas. In,
BCE, Ashoka of the Maurya
dynasty conquered the region in the
bloody Kalinga War which was fought at
the banks of River Daya near present-
day Bhubaneswar
The year 1568 CE is considered a pivotal point in the
region's history. In 1568 CE, the region was conquered
by the armies of the Sultanate of Bengal led by
the iconoclast general Kalapahad. The region lost its
political identity. The following rulers of the region were
more tributary lords than actual kings. After 1751,
the Marathas gained control of the region for almost
half a decade. In 1803, the region was passed onto
the British Empire. The British divided the region into
parts of other provinces. In 1936, the province of
Odisha was formed on the basis of populations
of Odia-speaking people.
