Who ruled India when the Abbasid ruler Harun al-Rashid was the Caliph of Baghdad?
score:3
Accepted answer
Harun Al-Rashid was the Caliph of Baghdad from 786 to 809 (according to Wikipedia). According to this map of the Eastern Hemisphere in the year 800, the Indian subcontinent was divided between the Rashtrakutas on the Deccan plateau, the Palas in the Gangetic plain, and the Gurjara-Pratiharas in modern day Rajasthan, with a major Abbasid presence in the Indus valley (modern day Pakistan). However, much of the subcontinent appears to have been ruled by large kingdoms at the time.
