The Vajji confederacy was an example of which political system?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Gana-sangha polity

The correct answer is B because Vajji was a confederacy of clans, with the Licchavis being especially prominent, and it is described in early sources as a gana-sangha or republican-style oligarchic polity. Authority was exercised through assemblies and collective decision-making by members of the ruling clans rather than through a single absolute emperor. This did not mean modern universal democracy: participation was limited and social hierarchies remained. Option A is inaccurate because Vajji was not a complete territorial empire ruled by one monarch. C wrongly presents it as a foreign colony, and D belongs to the political geography of the much later Chola period. The key concept is collective clan-based governance.
