The Idea of Vijayanagar :
As already mentioned the Islamic conquest had almost spread throughout the globe and muslims were the most feared Race on Earth. Wherever they stepped, they looted, plundered and destroyed the civilizations and diversity as a whole.
Though it was a not a cake walk for Islam in India, yet they were successful in establishing themselves through the length and breadth of half of India.
When the idea of Establishing a Kingdom and organizing an army sprouted in the minds of Vidyaranya and Veera Ballala they were in no Dilemma over the Motto behind the Establishement. It was obvioulsy and unanimously decided in the meeting of Tiruvannamalai that the very meaning of establishment of the Kingdom would be to 1. Restore and protect Hindu Dharma. 2. Build strong army 3. Fight Islamic onslaught. Nowhere in the minds of these men lingered a slight doubt or did they think otherwise of creating an empire with economic and military might, or to quench the capitalistic thirst of the Royal families. The Idea was absolutely clear. Save, restore and protect Hindu dharma.
