Samrat Harshavardhana of the Pushyabhuti dynasty:

The Pushyabhuti dynasty originated at Thanesar in modern day Haryana. It grew in power and reached

its zenith under Samrat Harshavardhana who ruled from 606 to 647 AD. To Harsha goes the credit of

moving the seat of power in north India moving from Pataliputra to Kannauj. Henceforth Kannuaj

became the seat of empires ruling North India. Harshavardhana practically ruled the whole of North

India from east to west. He was the strongest ruler north India had since the Guptas. He also tried to

conquer South but was defeated by Emperor Pulakesin. His rise and stay in power coincided with two

very important world events, One was the rise of Islam and an Arab Islamic empire in Middle East. The

other was the rise of the powerful Tang dynasty in China.
