For better or worse,indian continent was ruled by self proclaimed leaders who are other wise called as kings.
Initially number of "janapadhas"  in our country called as "gana tantra rajyas" having the democratic administration.

in later days, especially after 500 B.C., autocracy,anarchism,feudalism,male domination,  Religious fanatism, caste discrimination  , frequent wars between small kingdoms  caused common men to suffer .
fine arts,temple construction,  traditional moral values, made some solace to common people amidst chaos of innumerable idiosyncrasies of kings.

VEDAS,UPANISHADS,BHAGAVADGITA and OTHER VEDANTIC PHILOSOPHIES are twisted in a wrong interpretation and made karma sidhamta in to an oblivion of escapism and unnecessary criminal patience was injected in to common man's psyche, made them gullible to unnecessary suffering.
