We know the Rajput empire was the best empire ever. The history of Rajput has been so inspired and glorious. Everyone will be surprised to hear stories of them.
But somewhere, somehow we’re getting to forget them. Even in our education, we are not taught much about them. The historical books are fully filled with Delhi Saltanat, the Mughal empire, and Britishers.

Some people blame the Rajput that, foreign invaders came during their rule and they didn’t care much and they established an empire.
These are some reasons why Rajputs got a big loss
A strong desire to spread the kingdom: Not even Prithviraj but every Rajput king wanted to make their state big and big reputation. They all used to respect women, their ancestors, religion, and other people. But they never ignored dishonor, because it is against their principle. Everybody was expecting a distinctive specialty. And we all know there are two ways to get to other states, 1. By communicating peacefully and 2. By war. The first option is such no king would invite another king to rule his kingdom. Everyone will try his best to hold his power. So now there is only 2nd option left, and it’s somehow justified. If any king wants to protect his kingdom from others, he must fight. So this is one of the major reasons why Rajputs used to fight their country people and foreign invaders got advantages.
Enmity with their own people: In this point, own people mean family members. Yes. History is witness that, family members of Rajput used to be very jealous inside. Because kings had wifes more than one and every wife wanted her son to be the king. But that is not possible we know. And one thing is not only wives even brothers, uncles and other relatives were also jealous. It is said that whenever a relationship broke, neighbours took advantage. And the foreign invaders bribed those people to their side. And that Rajputs easily accepted their offer.
