History does not say Alexander gave poruses land back. Alexander made him his satrap , local king
Alexander may have defeated Porus or not, but he could never conquer India.
Porus was only a border king, and beyond the Punjab were the great Mahajanapadas like Magadha. Moreover, mosquitos and India's tropical diseases were a real nightmare for any invading force.
And remember, India at the time was almost 70% dense jungles with no way to supply troops or navigate through.
Good
Also remember that one of the biggest Universities was near the area where the battle took place and they didn't even bother with writing about him.😂
They didn't even consider him a threat 😂😂😂😂😂😂
The fact remains that the taxila university people might have written something about the war, but about a thousand years later ( approximately) Muslim conquest annihilated taxila burning it for days, So it's possible that the writings might have also burned.
@@nikhilsl I don't think so.
Taxila was said to copy war records to other universities for safekeeping the records and them saying nothing about it is literally funny
Good information ℹ️.
Same bro poras might be a small king and there battle would not be worth mentioning 😂
@@jaydeepsinhjadeja2820 imagine what would happen if Alexander met chola army? Or the Mauryan army?
Dude would be considered as only a decent or average guy🤣🤣
real history
Yes
Sir, I have a small request... Can u plz make a vedio on Chandragupta Maurya...
Very good history
Thank you soo much ☺️.
In simple words, Alexander failed to conquer india. Because he never came near the present day India. Alexander was supposed to fight against Chandragupt maurya and Chanakya, but he never appeared for this war. A man so eager to win the world didn’t face his enemy and decided to go back😀. Moreover he never fought any war after this. Why? Simply because he was already dead. They declared his death many days after they left india to save their face. Chanakya was a genius and he knew how to use sor slow poison effectively.
Yes!!!
Correction*
It's not Alexander VS India
It's Alexander VS Punjab
Oh!!!that's great 😃.
😵💫😵💫
👍
Indian agreed that punjab is not a part of india. So you confirmed that khalistan make sense
@@sadikahsan2492 only jihads have such mindset not Indians
Very logical presentation. But Alexander did keep some "enclaves". One of these was governed by Selukus who was finally defeated by Chandragupta Maurya (founder of the Gupta dynasty).
Indeed, Alexander did establish enclaves, and one was governed by Seleucus, who was eventually defeated by Chandragupta Maurya, the founder of the Gupta dynasty.
Selucus nikator was not ruling an enclave in indian subcontinent, he was ruling persia, he was defeated by chandragupta maurya founder of maurya dynasty. Selucus nikator was ruling a vast country stretching from present day Israel to present day Afghanistan

Thank you for this information. I'd assumed that the clash with the Maurya empire was because he was in power near it's borders. Now I understand that he was a much more powerful figure.
A small correction bro... Chandragupta Maurya was the founder of Mauryan Dynasty....
The Chandragupta of Gupta Dynasty is different from the Chandragupta of Mauryan Dynasty.... Don't get confused in this
Really though? I mean, Indian nationalist really do love to spin any obscure history to make "stronk ancient Indians", but you really cant do that in case of Alexander. Alexander's life was very heavily documented to the finer details, with every one of his minor and major battles. Particularly in case of his fight with King Purushottam. There's a 4 hour video in "Kings and Generals" channel that gives you more insight, and on his expeditions and return from India. I can't understand why people of the region in India where Alexander is said to have conquered have the name "Sikander"( Indianised version of Alexander) even after 2500 years, if he was just one of those thousands of Invaders in the region, or even more absurd claim if yours, why would his name be popular if we was just a defeated general two millenia ago in Punjab?
Thanks for your valuable comment.Actually this is just history loops fall.
I don't understand one thing why would a king who is declared so called winner of the war will left the victorious territory ? Please someone explain me this .
If Indian say Sikandar . it's is not Alexander. As for Seleucus Nicator is sikander he was one of the general who took care of a piece of land bordering India today's Pakistan and Afghanistan. And one more thing Alexander didn't cross the river Indus . King purushotam is not a real big king his small tribal chief with army of 40 to 120 war elephant an army less than 10,000. They want to save face of Alexander. How can they say to their people he didn't even defeat a small king of India. and also this war didn't end this war is stopped by the retreat of the Alexander because of failure of him fighting with King porus.
Edit:
Greek historians says King porus is the one of the biggest king in Indian and also he have a very big empire in subcontinent but he is not.
Indian historians at that time the world's biggest and most popular university at that time is called takshashila & Nalanda they didn't mention King porus as the king .
@@sivaphanindra4102sikandar is Alexander man, there need not be any doubt in that and also selucus nikator had a vast land, he was the largest of the Diadochis
@@nikhilsl yaa Seleucus Nicator is Alexander man he was defeated by Chandragupta Maurya , after after the defeat he gave his daughter as wife and some strategic location to Chandragupta. After that Chandragupta Maurya give military to Seleucus Nicator. In form of 500 war elephants. After that Seleucus Nicator expand his territory to Central Asia.

I am an Indian and a nationalist, I think this battle was a stalemate. Nobody really won this battle and Alexander thought it is best to retreat as he had no capacity to fight on. We could say he never lost a battle but we could not say that he won all his battles and certainly did not win against Porus
That's great maybe you are right!!
Thing is the battle of poras and Alexander was worth the eyes of taskhshila they didn't bother to mention poros or alexander this is why greek historians is able to manipulate the history because why would he have sudden change of heart 😂 he lost and retreated what else there is to talk about 😂
Alexander is Slavonic Tribes name !!!
Samaratta Urushottam / Poros defeated Latinium Byzantine Selecuid Ptolemy King whose Forces used Ural Mountain Ranges and came in the Region between Darya Aum and Darya Hind not far from Bakteria / Bacteria Zone !!!
🤚🌙🌙🌙🇮🇳
Alexander the Great was not associated with Slavonic tribes; he conquered various kingdoms but not near the Ural Mountains or Darya rivers. Samaratta Urushottam, Poros, Latinium Byzantine, Seleucid, and Ptolemy were from different historical periods and regions.
@@The_Scary-world Get out from Here !!! Alexander is Slavonic Tsar Name !!!
Latinium Selecuid Byzantine King Ptolemy was defeated by Samaratta Urshottama !!!
Okay may be you are right
@@The_Scary-world Well Arabs, Arya & Afghans have secured this Historical Fact !!!
🤚🌙🌙🌙🇮🇳
Thanks for your valuable information.❤❤
kya historian banega re tu
🙄🙄
Iam an Indian and I don't agree with this narrative. History is being misleading by these kind of videos. No historical evidence of the defeat of Alexander. He might had a tough battle but Alexander won the battle with porus and left the kingdom for him for his courage and valour. Don't spread lies,Truth always prevails.
Okay
Alexander was supposed to fight against Chandragupt maurya and Chanakya, but he never appeared for this war. A man so eager to win the world didn’t face his enemy and decided to go back😀. Moreover he never fought any war after this. Why? Simply because he was already dead. They declared his death many days after they left india to save their face.

Provide proof before you blabber shits
You are not Indian
Yes. The greek and indian sources doesn't mention Alexander's defeat. Alexander probably won or everything is a fantasy
Po-Ras. Not purus.
Really!! 😲
@@The_Scary-world yep. He was the king from Indian subcontinent and that's how his name is pronounced, correctly.
Thanks for your valuable information.by the way I know everything, I was just kidding 😂.
@@The_Scary-world perfect.
