Question

According to one traveler, this empire was the site of Mi-li-kia-si-kia-po-no, where a ruler known as Che-li-ki-to built a temple for Chinese pilgrims. It's not in Indonesia, but this empire was unreliably chronicled by Yijing. (-5[1])The Foguoji (“FOH-guo-jee”) was a chronicle written (-5[1])by a traveler (15[1])to this empire, (-5[1])whose rulers revived the practice of horse sacrifice (-5[1])and ruled from Ujjain (15[2]-5[1])(“ooj-JAY-in”). A ruler of this empire (-5[1])who defeated the Sakas and their ruler (*) Rudrasimha (10[1]-5[1])III was visited by the monk Faxian (10[3])(“FAH-shee-yen”). The (10[1])monk (10[1]-5[1])Xuanzang (10[2])(“shwen-ZAHNG”) visited a successor (-5[1])state to this empire (-5[1])ruled by Harsha, which emerged (10[1])following (10[1])this empire’s collapse after invasions by the White (-5[1])Huns. This empire’s (10[1])rulers (10[1])oversaw the codifying (10[1])of major Hindu scriptures and patronized the playwright (-5[1])Kalidasa (10[1]-5[1])(“KAH-li-dah-suh”). For 10 points, name this empire founded by Chandra (-5[1])that (-5[1])ruled much of India (10[1])between the fourth (10[1])and sixth centuries. (10[4])■END■ (10[7]0[1])
