message: I've put in a link to the GoogleEarth location of Vijayanagara: very tough finding the place on any map, even for folks familiar with the history -- this link connects directly to the map, moreover, if the software is installed locally, whereas other georef links connect to confusing "explanatory pages" or get messed up in user security software and downloading problems.
The GoogleEarth software now is a free download to any user, Apple/Mac or Wintel -- from earth.google.com -- so I personally believe it's the most politically-correct GIS to use for this purpose, at the moment anyway. It's also wildly-exciting, to be able to hop around southern India virtually-visiting all the "sights", online...

message: I understand that Vijaynagar is situated in modern Karnataka. However, akin to the Krishnadevaraya article, the Telugu script for Vijaynagar should be put after the Kannada one in the introduction.
: No, the place is in Karnataka, so the language should be limited to the one language of the region. Otherwise we could go on forever including every relevant language - e.g. Persian/Hindustani/Urdu, since Muslims probably speaking one of these languages conquered it at at least one time. For the Vijayanagara Empire article however (and to figures such as Krishnadevaraya), both Kannada and Telugu are appropriate. Imc 14:43, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

message: Sources use those two names pell-mell. What's the correct one and the most common spelling? The same goes for the Vijayanagara Empire. --Wester (talk) 09:44, 25 August 2013 (UTC)
thread_title: Vijayanagar or Vijayanagara

message: Vijayanagara city was the largest in the world. It was also the wealthiest in the world. Wikipedia is the most pathetic excuse for an encyclopedia that I have ever come across. When such mind boggling nonsense ends up on an "encyclopedia", it makes me wonder if humans are devolving! Unbelievable.  Realfacts123 (talk) 05:20, 14 December 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: According to the cited source, Urban World History: An Economic and Geographical Perspective, "Around 1500, the city of Vijaynaagar, whose name means the 'city of victory' had about 500, 000 inhabitants, and it was probably the second largest city of the world after Peking-Beijing." If you have another, or better, source that says otherwise, we can discuss it here. Barring that please do not change cited facts and introduce factual errors in wikipedia articles. 12:10, 14 December 2013 (UTC)

message: The map of the Vijayanagar empire suggests that the Malabar area was part of it. Vijayanagar did send armies in the area, but the rajas of Malabar seem to have stayed independent  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7F:4691:A900:A5A7:A0ED:A059:EDF7 (talk) 13:23, 4 July 2019 (UTC)
