The Kakatiyas were founded by Prolaya Vema Reddy in 1076 CE. They quickly rose to power and became one of the most powerful dynasties in the Deccan. The Kakatiyas were able to achieve this success due to their strong military, their efficient administration, and their wise policies.

The Kakatiyas were patrons of the arts and literature. They built many temples and palaces, which are still admired today for their beauty and craftsmanship. The Kakatiyas also patronized the arts of music, dance, and literature.

The Kakatiyas were defeated by the Delhi Sultanate in 1323 CE. However, their legacy lives on in the form of their many impressive architectural monuments. The Kakatiyas were a great dynasty that left a lasting impact on the history of India.
