B Agricultural lands
C Civil courts
D Street markets
An administrative center is usually where the king lived. His armies, officials, advisors settled down in the capital city. The affairs of the king’s territories were monitored and managed from this centre. If the king settles down here, it is bound to urbanise. The king conducted his daily affairs in mandapas of palaces and gave out orders to their subordinates. Very often the king’s stationed a part of their armies close to their imperial capitals. It was normal to see barracks being set up close to administrative centres of a kingdom. Agricultural lands were often close to these towns to provide food for the townspeople. These crops were sold through street markets.
