If you take a close look at the ancient India government you will be surprised at the meticulous processes they followed. Ancient Indians were one huge nomadic tribe, but with agriculture seeping in they began to live in groups with a leader of the tribal in charge.

Slowly the concept of a ‘king’ began to evolve and by the 6th Century BC, 16 kingdoms were formed which later on went upto an enormous number as small princely states began to arise.

In the Mauryan period the army officials were paid a salary. The highest official got paid around 48000 panas annually – the unit of money that was then the currency. While the soldiers made around 500 panans annually. The Mauryan dynasty had appointed officials for every task, that included taking the census, collecting taxes. Each region had an official appointed and he would report the developments to the higher central government. Spies were very much in demand during this reign; they could contact the king at any given time to tell them of any new updates.

During the Gupta reign, the government was even more effective as compared to the Mauryan era, inspite of the large empire, as they were given the authority to take decisions. This sped up the work and brought efficiency.

With the impact of the many dynasties that invaded the country and ruled it, many cultures have been developed. Hence ancient India cultures vary from region to region. It is visible in the regular festivals, cuisines and etiquettes.

Ancient India food was even tastier than the food today as they were cooked in earthen pots and mud ovens. Food was rich in quality as they were home grown in natural soils.

And of course with good food comes good times that were expressed in various art forms. Ancient India art had poetry which was at an all time high with shayaris and baithaks. Sanskrit and Urdu were the languages that were spoken. Both the languages were phonetically developed and were used to write and speak.

I don't think more than 10% of Singaporeans are unprivileged , do you see beggars or homeless children roaming on the streets of Singapore ?

Yes its true , also look at the number of private housing in Singapore !

Doesn't mean if the family lives in HDBs or any non private housing , it does not mea that the parents do not spoil their children.

The parents of our generation are mostly rich , as like my friends in school , they are all spoon fed with help by their parents , grandparents and / or domestic helpers. If they need or wants anything , they just have to ask their domestic helpers , parents or anyone to help them complete the task . If the children wants anything , the parents will spoil their kids with toys and all kinds of materialistic things to satisfy the child.
