The history of Andhra Pradesh goes back to the Vedic period. Its earliest mention is found in the ancient text Aitareya Brahmana. There is evidence to suggest that the coastal kingdom of Andhra Pradesh thrived during the rule of Satavahanas. Inland and maritime trade flourished in the region between the Godavari and Krishna Rivers. Currency was used to facilitate trade.

There is also proof that Buddhism flourished here when the Ikshvakus of Nagarjunakonda came to power. Although the rulers were devoted to Vedic ritualism, Buddhism flourished; as is evident from the several Stupas, Chaityas and Viharas found here.

The Andhra region came under the control of the Kakatiya Dynasty, Reddy Dynasty, Vijaynagar Empire as well as the Mughal rule and then the British Empire in 1792. After independence, the princely state of Hyderabad became a part of India in 1948. The state of Andhra Pradesh was created on linguistic lines and merged with the Telugu speaking area of Telangana in 1956 through the State Reorganisation Act. The Telengana Movement began after that and Andhra Pradesh was bifurcated in 2014. There are a number of places to visit in this beautiful state.
