Detailed Solution

Harishena mentioned four types of rulers in his Allahabad prashasti. Four different types of kings are described by Harishena, who also discusses Samudragupta's actions regarding them.
1) The kings of Aryavarta: these nine kings were exiled, and Samudragupta's empire absorbed their kingdoms.
2) The Dakshinapatha kings. Twelve local kings were defeated and submitted to Samudragupta, who reinstated their rule.
3) The close-knit group of neighbouring states, which included Assam, coastal Bengal, Nepal, and a number of gana sanghas in the northwest, paid tribute to Samudragupta, obeyed his directives, and attended his court.
4) The ruler of Sri Lanka, who surrendered to Samudragupta and offered his daughter in marriage, and the rulers of the surrounding provinces, who were the descendants of the Kushanas and Shakas.
