A beautiful map prepared by National Geographic. This image complements the insights provided by a great French epigraphist, George Coedes in his magnum opus titled: See:
- Histoire ancienne des États hindouisés d’Extrême-Orient, 1944
- “Some Problems in the Ancient History of the Hinduized States of South-East Asia”, Journal of Southeast Asian History, Vol.5, No.2, pp. 1–14
- The region in Indian Ocean is exemplified by the continuum of Dharma-Dhamma as a governing principle. George Coedes characterized the region as ‘Hinduised states of the Orient’ which is also referred to as Greater India in the academic studies of the contact regions which were established during the early Bronze Age in Sarasvati-Sindhu (Hindu) civilization.
- I call this the Indian Ocean Community, a counterpoise to the European Community.
