The Krala Dynasty, sometimes called Great Kitaji, was a state that controlled western Vedic Satria from approximately 480 to 320 BCE. Relatively little can be attested for the dynasty's found, Panghunakrala, in the archaelogical record, but his kingdom is discussed extensively in the oral tradition of the Satrian Parbhan speakers. Later figures, such as the terminal figure, Chanakyakrala, are discussed more extensively in the philosophy of successive states around Kitaji and as far away as Patharistan. The Kralas established a heavily centralized state and, in addition to semi-regular tributaries and plunder, extracted standardized taxes from multiple cities within their empire. They are the first documented monarchs to be incorporated into the concept of the arudharaja, a monarch with supreme authority over the world (or the world of Satria).
