Before the advent of Buddhism and emergence of Emperor Ashoka, there were hundreds of small kingdoms in South-East Asia. Most of the kingdoms were ruled by powerful and, often cruel, kings.

The oceans in the regions teemed with sea pirates. The traders could only complete their voyages across the seas with the help of their private soldiers.

The sea traders from several kingdoms were involved in trade with small island states in the region which is now known as Pacific and Indian Ocean.
