Answer is Right!
Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is: d) All of the above
Some feudatory states occasionally revolted against Ahom authority, seeking greater independence, reduced tributes, and expansion of territory.
- Greater independence: The feudatory states were not always happy with the Ahom rule. They wanted to have more control over their own affairs.
- Reduced tributes: The feudatory states had to pay tribute to the Ahoms. This was a heavy burden on them, and they wanted to reduce it.
- Expansion of territory: Some of the feudatory states wanted to expand their territory. They saw the Ahoms as a threat to their own power, and they wanted to weaken them by taking over some of their territory.
The Ahoms were able to keep control of the feudatory states for many years, but they were never able to completely eliminate the threat of revolt. The feudatory states were a constant source of trouble for the Ahoms, and they eventually contributed to the downfall of the Ahom kingdom.
