Rajputana Naval Warfare

Rajputana naval warfare refers to the maritime conflicts and strategies employed by the Rajput kingdoms in India's historical region of Rajputana (now Rajasthan) during the medieval period. While Rajputs are primarily known for their cavalry and land battles, some Rajput states engaged in naval operations on the Arabian Sea and the Indian Ocean. They often built alliances with maritime powers and utilized trade routes to their advantage. A notable aspect includes resistance against foreign invaders and control of coastal territories, reflecting a broader understanding of naval power's significance in regional dominance and trade during that era.
